Punta Cana
Best excursions from Royalton Bávaro Resort & Spa for guests
The shortlist we'd actually book if we were staying at Royalton Bávaro Resort & Spa in Bávaro this week: Saona Island for the postcard day, the Cabeza de Toro catamaran for sunset, Macao Beach buggies for an adrenaline morning, and Scape Park's Hoyo Azul cenote for a calmer half-day. Every option includes pickup at the Royalton Bávaro Resort & Spa lobby (~15 min transfer), bilingual guides and a flat per-person price — no resort-desk markup. Royalton Bávaro sits on Arena Gorda — Diamond Club guests get private SUV pickup at the dedicated lobby gate so you skip the all-inclusive bus crawl through the resort road.
