Party boat from your hotel · Occidental Caribe
Punta Cana party boat with DJ, open bar and snorkel stop — pickup organised from your hotel. Tailored for Occidental Caribe guests staying in Bávaro (all-inclusive) — pickup organised at your lobby, paid in cash or card on arrival. Occidental Caribe sits on the Bávaro coast — a classic all-inclusive resort about 25 min from PUJ and 12 min from Cabeza de Toro, the marina we use for most boat departures. Value all-inclusive on the Arena Gorda end of Bávaro — straightforward, family-friendly and one of the easier hotels to organise group excursions from.
Plan it on WhatsAppWhat the day looks like
Pickup at the lobby, transfer to Cabeza de Toro marina, 4–5 hours on a catamaran with DJ, dance floor, open bar (rum, beer, soft drinks), snorkel reef stop and natural pool. Back at the hotel by late afternoon.
Private upgrades
Hire the whole boat for your group — custom playlist, late return for sunset, premium open bar. Ideal for bachelor/bachelorette parties or birthdays.
Booking from Occidental Caribe
When Occidental Caribe guests book a party-boat day with us, the day is built around two fixed timings: the 12-minute hop to Cabeza de Toro and the 25-minute window to PUJ. Because Occidental Caribe is a classic all-inclusive resort, we pre-brief the guide on the lobby layout, the resort's wristband policy, and where to wait so security never asks twice. That's the difference between a smooth pickup and 20 lost minutes at the gate.
Send your dates, group size and room number on WhatsApp
Send your dates, group size and room number on WhatsApp. We confirm pickup time at the hotel lobby, the meeting guide's name, and the cash/card price — usually within minutes, 7am–11pm. Pickup is from the Occidental Caribe main lobby. We send a confirmation message with the driver's name and plate the evening before. Expect roughly 25 min between PUJ airport and the hotel. We're a Dominican team based in Bávaro. No call centre, no resort kick-back. Your concierge resells the same trips at +30–50% — we put you in touch with the small operators directly.

FAQ
Common questions
Do you pick up at Occidental Caribe?+
Yes — drivers wait at the Occidental Caribe main lobby. PUJ airport is about 25 min away, which helps us time pickups precisely.
Which marina do boats leave from for Occidental Caribe guests?+
Cabeza de Toro — about 12 min from the Occidental Caribe lobby. We always pick the marina that saves drive time over chasing a slightly cheaper boat further away.
Is there an age limit?+
18+ on the public party boat. Family-friendly catamarans are available for mixed groups.
How many people fit on board?+
Public boats take 40–80. Private charters use 50–62 ft catamarans (up to 40 guests) so it stays comfortable.
Why not just book at the hotel excursion desk?+
Resort desks resell the same trips with a 30–50% markup and usually push larger group operators. We connect you directly to the small Dominican operators we use for our own family.
Can I pay in cash on the day?+
Yes — USD or DOP, in cash, on pickup. Card and bank transfer also work. No deposit needed for most options.
What languages do guides speak?+
Group tours are bilingual EN/ES. German, French, Italian, Russian and Portuguese guides available on request for private trips.
Can it be private, just for our group?+
Yes — almost everything on this page has a private upgrade (own boat, own buggy, own driver). Ask us on WhatsApp.
