Friendly hotels
Families are welcomed with open arms in the Dominican Republic. Got water babies instead of children? Check in to our SplashWorld hotel, the Memories Splash Punta Cana. It’s got an in-house waterpark and a sea-themed restaurant. Any place by RIU Hotels is also a good choice, as they dole out kids’ clubs, activities and shows. And they usually set down in a sand-skimmed beach resort.
Family-friendly activities
Thanks to its diverse landscape, there’s a near-bottomless offering of activities in the Dominican Republic. Safari buses and monster trucks rocket through the wild jungle backcountry. Other tours make tracks for coconut oil and cocoa farms. If you’d rather head out to sea, try whale-watching in Samana or a cruise through the mangrove forests of the Gri Gri lagoons.
