Head to this lively resort on the beautiful island of the Dominican Republic and you'll be in no doubt why thousands of sun-seekers plump for holidays in Punta Cana all year round.

From buzzing Bavaro to serene Uvero Alto, holidays in Punta Cana offer something for all, including a sprinkling of A-listers to spot! Punta Cana’s airport is among the most popular in the Caribbean and is minutes away from resorts and hotels in the area.
Honeymooners can plan a romantic escape to Punta Cana, with plentiful options for resorts where you can sip cocktails by the pool or tee off at picturesque Cana Bay Golf Club and Punta Espada.

With pristine white sands and electric-blue waters, Punta Cana is a perfect choice for those who want to relax and soak up the Caribbean sunshine. This Caribbean gem is a great option for winter sun holidays, with temperatures averaging 28-29°C.
