Overview
The Dominican Republic's Punta Cana and Cap Cana region is the Caribbean's most visited destination. With over 30 miles of palm-lined, white-sand beaches, year-round sunshine, and a massive concentration of all-inclusive resorts, it delivers the quintessential tropical vacation.
For points travelers, the Dominican Republic is a goldmine. Hyatt's all-inclusive properties in Cap Cana offer some of the best CPP redemptions in the Caribbean at just 25,000 points per night -- remarkable considering all-inclusive cash rates of $600-$800+.
Beyond the resort gates, the DR offers adventure: zip-line through jungle canopy at Scape Park, swim in natural cenotes, explore the colonial charm of nearby Higuey, or charter a catamaran to the natural pool at Saona Island.
Cash vs Points
Hotels in Dominican Republic range from $56 to $761 per night. Points redemptions offer 2.08+ cents per point value.
