Booked this as a solo trip and it was well paced. Playa El Cortecito boardwalk in particular stood out. A couple of the transfers ran a little late but nothing that spoiled the trip.

Our trip to Punta Cana was fantastic from start to finish. The hotel was clean and well located, and the guided visit to Indigenous Eyes Ecological Park was a real highlight. Airport transfers were on time both ways.

We added a couple of optional activities beyond Marinarium snorkeling boat tour and don't regret it. Good value for what was included, and the food recommendations from our guide were spot on.

Coco Bongo Punta Cana show alone was worth the trip, but combined with Cabeza de Toro fishing village this itinerary really delivered. Breakfast at the hotel was good every day and the local guide was knowledgeable.
