A guest suite at the Excellence Punta Cana.

EXCELLENCE PUNTA CANA | PUNTA CANA, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

The Scoop: How does parking yourself on one of the most beautiful and private stretches of beach in the world sound? You can do just that in the Dominican Republic. It may sound incongruous given that the Caribbean island and spring break go hand in hand. But 30 miles of palm-lined coastline and personal hammocks for afternoon siestas await at this adults-only resort that will have you rethinking your typical spring break all-inclusive idea.

The Difference Maker: Go for the gold. Seriously. The Dominican Gold Ritual at the Miile Spa takes spa treatments to a new level (your standards will never be the same). This 80-minute treatment contains pure gold molecules that are anti-aging, regenerating and hydrating. The scrub plus botanical body oil finish equals the smoothest, most glowing skin that you’ve ever dreamed of.

Day Tripper: Hire a private boat, because a romantic day on a secluded island is in order. Isla Saona is a tropical paradise where you can pop some champagne for a picnic on the beach, swim on the hunt for starfish and sunbathe in complete privacy.
