✨Resort Spotlight: The W Punta Cana✨

I might be back in SC, but I’m still dreaming of the W Punta Cana! This is the first all-inclusive property for the W brand and it’s for adults only.

Everything about this property is gorgeous from its spacious rooms and suites to the beachfront infinity pool to the speakeasy with classic video games just for adults.

A few of my favorite features:
🌴 Beachfront infinity pool with adjacent Poke bar
🛏️ Modern, spacious guest rooms (some with two king beds!)
🍹 Rooftop raw bar
🕹️ Speakeasy with retro video games and vinyl record collection.
🧘‍♀️ Focus on wellness with a two-story spa with hydrotherapy experience

If you’re looking for a warm weather getaway, let's talk!

🏝️There’s nothing better than seeing resorts first hand to better advise my clients.

This week, I am in Punta Cana on an educational site inspection with my work colleagues beginning at the beautiful Live Aqua Beach Resort Punta Cana.

We will be touring 12 resorts during this trip and meeting resort management/staff to have a direct contact at each resort.

We’ll be looking beyond the beautiful photos to evaluate the details that truly matter:
✨ Beach quality
🏨 Room layouts
🍽️ Dining experiences
🏊 Amenities
❤️ Overall atmosphere
👨‍👩‍👧 Who each resort is best suited for

When you book with me, you’re not just getting someone who has read about a destination, you have someone that invests time in visiting resorts, building relationships with our travel partners, and staying up to date so we can confidently match you with the vacation that’s right for you.

Pros of resort tours: seeing location, rooms, pools, beach, and restaurants to better help my clients find the perfect spot for their vacation.

Cons of resort tours: I don’t get to park myself in one of these pool/beach chairs and order an umbrella drink!
