Punta Cana / Dominican Republic?

We've stayed at the Iberostar Bavaro twice and Riu Bambu (right next door) once. We have also stayed at Iberostars in Puerto Plata and La Romana. I highly recommend Iberostar, good food, beautiful resort, and terrific staff, -especially the Animation Team, a great value for the money. We chatted with some people at the Grand Bavaro, which is more expensive and offers things like butlers and room service, but felt that the Bavaro All Suites was more to our liking, in fact we met some people from the Grand Bavaro at the Bavaro pool where they came because they said it was more fun then at the Grand. Read some of the reviews at Tripadvisor. I don't think you will be dissapointed.

While there, I recommend taking the Outback Safari tour. You will get a nice overview of the history and culture of the island as well as visiting some different spots. It is a real fun day with them. (Just don't buy the cigars on the tour -all fakes)
