Spotlight On: Dreams Royal Beach Punta Cana

Holidays have to be just right – we work so hard to book the best holidays for ourselves and our families and we want to know for sure that the hotel we pick is good value for money! This is even more important when booking a long haul holiday as price points are usually a little higher than holidays closer to home, and after all that travelling, you don’t want to be disappointed by your hotel choice!

 

That’s where our Spotlight On series comes in handy! We do all the hard work for you, and show you the best of the best hotels around the world. 

 

 

Heavenly Hotel

The Dreams Royal Beach Punta Cana in the idyllic Dominican Republic is perched on Punta Cana’s tropical shores, in the beautiful town of Bavaro. The waterfront resort of Bavaro is a collection of upscale hotels, all of which come with spas and infinity pools as standard. The beach of pure white sand stretches along the coastline for 10 kilometres, alongside turquoise waters. 

 

 

Punta Cana Airport is around an hour away from your hotel by coach, but this is included in your holiday package when you book with us, so you can step off the plane and onto the coach worry free, knowing your transport is already sorted!

 

 

Arriving at the hotel, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped onto your own slice of heaven and you’ll be instantly blown away at the lagoon-style main pool. It’s close to the beach and has sun loungers and a built-in bar, plus there’s a relaxation pool and a kids’ pool in the grounds. If you’re staying in a Preferred Club room, you’ll have access to the Preferred Club pool, which comes with concierge and bar service.
