Adults and children alike appreciate the 3 pools and water slides. A variety of cuisines are served daily at 4 specialty restaurants, such as Asian from the Lotus. Guests are also treated each day to a themed main buffet and numerous snack bars.

You don't have to feel guilty about having some adult fun in the casino or at the energetic Spice disco. Your kids, ages 3-10, will be too busy to notice when they're in the Kids Club, which features a swimming pool and plenty of games.

If you want to get a bigger taste of Puerto Plata culture, you can drive into the main area of town, 5 km away. The Museum of Taino Art tells more about the original inhabitants of the island. Resort parking is free, so you can come and go as often as you please.
