“This beachfront Bavaro resort struck me as a place where families can truly settle in, with direct access to a UNESCO-recognized beach and a comprehensive Star Camp program for children; I also noted the multiple dining options, extending from local Dominican fare to international cuisine. What stands out, though, is its commitment to sustainability-especially the on-site coral laboratory, a pioneering effort in the region. All told, it balances recreation and responsibility.”
