Punta Cana
Horseback Beach Riding from Royalton CHIC Punta Cana for resort guests
Horseback beach riding from Royalton CHIC Punta Cana — a calm 2-hour trail from the Macao ranch through coconut groves to the wild Macao beach surf line and back. Lobby pickup at the Royalton CHIC Punta Cana entrance in Uvero Alto (~22 min to the ranch), helmet + saddle briefing, beginner-friendly horses, bilingual guides walking alongside non-riders. Sunrise (7:30 AM) and sunset (4:30 PM) departures both available — sunset is the photo slot. Flat USD 55 per rider including transfer, no upsells. Uvero Alto is only 20–25 min from the ranch via the highway, so we can pull off the sunrise slot without a brutal wake-up — pickup at 6:45 AM, in the saddle by 7:30. Who it's for: Adults-only social travellers, 30-something friend groups, Diamond Club CHIC guests pairing the resort party scene with daytime catamarans. Each Royalton CHIC Punta Cana group rides as a closed pod (max 12 horses) — you don't get folded into a bigger groupon van. Riders are matched by weight and experience at the ranch: nervous first-timers get our slowest two mares (Canela and Luna), confident riders get the Paso Fino crosses that actually break into a beach canter on the return leg. Water, helmet, and printed photo (taken at the dune-top overlook) are included; no resort-desk markup, no time-share pitch on the van ride. Pair it with a Macao buggy in the morning and we drop you back at Royalton CHIC Punta Cana by 1 PM for lunch. Royalton CHIC is adults-only in Uvero Alto — the 4-hour catamaran party boat is the natural daytime extension of the CHIC mansion party energy, with open bar and snorkel stop.
