"The only Relais & Châteaux property in the Dominican Republic occupies an exclusive slice of beachfront real estate on the country’s eastern tip. Accommodations run the gamut from standalone beach suites to ocean bungalows to multi-bedroom villas, which come in an array of architectural styles that speak to the Caribbean surroundings: Think bright punchy colors and barrel tiles for some; thatched-roof, palapa-inspired designs for others; and plenty that are blindingly white to contrast with the area’s deep blue skies. The resort is also home to a Jack Nicklaus signature course, where the 18 holes dip and curve with the oceanfront landscape, past waterfalls and cliffs and beaches, while the spa offers such unique treatments as a massage that incorporates virtual reality." - CNT Editors
"Kiddos will have a blast designing Christmas cards, going on treasure hunts, performing in the talent show, and visiting with Santa on Christmas Day. While little ones are entertained, grown-ups can sip on something refreshing at the tequila and Champagne tastings and sunset happy hours or get a jump start on New Year's wellness resolutions with daily fitness classes and revitalizing spa rituals. The Christmas Eve social, classic holiday movie nights, and themed dinners bring the whole crew together." - Lindsay Cohn Lindsay Cohn Lindsay Cohn is a writer, editor, and avid traveler who has visited 45 countries across six continents — and counting.
