Best All-Inclusive Resorts in Punta Cana

Punta Cana is a town in the Dominican Republic that has come to be known as one of the preeminent resort destinations in the region. Not only does the town feature many miles of rare white-sanded beaches, but it’s also home to the Punta Cana International Airport. Those looking for an incredible resort vacation can find everything they need nestled within the confines of Punta Cana. From the Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana to Excellence Punta Cana, join ViewCation as we look at the best all-inclusive resorts in Punta Cana.

Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana

The Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana is one of the first resorts that will come up when you start searching for all-inclusive resorts in the town of Punta Cana. One of the reasons that Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana has become so popular in comparison to many of the town’s other resorts is that it offers a little of something for everyone. The resort offers a full host of the amenities you would expect from an all-inclusive resort, and accommodates guests of all ages. Adding to the Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana’s universal appeal is the fact that it happens to be located in an exceptionally beautiful area of Punta Cana.

Families especially will find plenty to do while visiting the Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana, with one of the resort’s biggest draws being it’s expansive water park. The park occupies a fairly large portion of the overall resort and contains everything that one would expect from an exuberant water park. Not only are there numerous slides for guests of all heights, but there are also water cannons, a variety of different splash zones, several pools, and, of course, a traditional lazy river. As is often a feature in all-inclusive resorts, there are specialty “swim-up” suites that allow easy pool access.

It may seem odd to spend all of your time at a water park when you’re right next to an immensely beautiful beach! The Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana features it’s own private stretch of beach located along Punta Cana’s coast, and guests will want to take full advantage of it while visiting the resort. Other things that can be found within the resort include six different restaurants. Of course, since it’s all-inclusive, you aren’t going to have to worry about paying extra for food.

There are plentiful fitness options for visitors to the Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana, including fitness classes that guests can take and even some optional personal training. While the adults are working out, kids can have their own fun at the resort’s kids’ club, which provides adult supervision. Besides the kids’ club, there’s also an area of the resort for teens. In addition to all of these great amenities, visitors to the Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana can also expect live entertainment, karaoke and singing, and access to a full-service spa.

While the Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana is an all-ages resort, there is a twin resort just next to it called the Hyatt Zllara Cap Cana that is adults-only. Guests visiting the Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana have access to the majority of the same amenities as guests visiting the Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana, including the private strip of beach and the water park. However, visitors staying at the Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana also have their own adults-only swimming pool. While couples are allowed to stay at the Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana, they may have more fun next door!

Live Aqua Beach Resort Punta Cana

The Live Aqua Beach Resort Punta Cana is an all-inclusive resort that is located within the Uvero Alto district of Punta Cana. Unlike the aforementioned resort, Live Aqua Beach Resort Punta Cana is an adults-only resort that predominantly caters to couples. However, it takes just as good of care of it’s guest as the Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana.

As is typical with all-inclusive resorts, there are a variety of different classes of rooms that you can choose from when booking your stay at the Live Aqua Beach Resort Punta Cana. There are rooms that feature such luxurious amenities as included hot tubs, and even private pools. However, the majority of those staying at the resort will find the more basic rooms fit better within their price range. Even the least expensive room at the Live Aqua Beach Resort Punta Cana is going to provide it’s guests with an incredible experience and a nifty view of Punta Cana. The grounds around the resort are particularly beautiful, with plenty of dense foliage providing an appreciable tropical feel to the place.

Guests to the Live Aqua Beach Resort Punta Cana will find plenty of swimming opportunities, whether it’s taking a dip in the ocean just out front or in one of the resort’s numerous on-site swimming pools. Besides swimming pools, other amenities that can be found at the Live Aqua Beach Resort Punta Cana include a fully equipped gym, tennis courts, and a spa. Sadly, despite the all-inclusive designation of the resort, spa treatments are not included with the room. Finally, as can be expected, the Live Aqua Beach Resort Punta Cana features plentiful options for eating, regardless of whether you’re looking for regional cuisine or something more basic. For couples, the Live Aqua Beach Resort Punta Cana is certainly one of the best all-inclusive resorts around.

Of course, the main draw of the Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts Punta Cana is that it bears numerous Nickelodeon-owned licenses, with the resort featuring such iconic characters as Spongebob Squarepants and his fellow undersea denizens.
