Bavaro Princess details
Blonde sands, aquamarine seas and lashings of Dominican spirit – this exotic escape has got relaxation written all over it.
‘Caribbean’. It’s a word that conjures up images of angel-dust sands, turquoise seas and nodding palms. So it comes as no surprise to find exactly that at Hotel Bavaro Princess. Carved out of the mangroves and rainforest of the Dominican Republic’s east coast, this exotic spot is bound to score high in the beach beauty stakes.
And then there’s the hotel itself. This tropical treat gives you more for your money than your average beach hotel. We’re talking a whole lot of luxury in the form of 808 split-level suites. Decorated in soft shades of gold and terracotta, they nestle in the eight-suite bungalows that speckle 92 acres of Eden-like garden. If you don’t fancy walking down the garden trails to the main building and pools, don’t worry - there’s a shuttle service that will whisk you all the way. But keep your eyes peeled on your journey and you’ll see everything from flamingos and peacocks to lizards and parrots. It’s a totally tropical experience.
But let’s face it, the beach is the real star of the show. Swaying palms, dazzling white sands and sparkling blue waters. To sum it up, it’s complete and utter paradise. Spend lazy days stretched out on your shoreside sunlounger. Paddle in the bath-warm sea shallows. Or stay away from the sand altogether and make the most of the two pools.
Tired of taking it easy? There’s plenty on offer to keep idle thumbs busy. And if all inclusive activities like archery, windsurfing and beach football aren’t enough to get your heart pumping, splash out on horse-riding along the beach, scuba diving or a session at the spa.
To say this is heaven on earth is an understatement. This is truly paradise found.
