Punta Cana
Punta Cana vs La Romana for Casa de Campo vs Bávaro deciders
La Romana = Casa de Campo (Teeth of the Dog golf, Altos de Chavón, private marina, ultra-luxury villa rentals) and the gateway to Catalina Island. Quieter, ritzier, fewer all-inclusives. Punta Cana = mass-market AI, livelier Bávaro nightlife, Saona Island closer. Golfers, villa renters and yacht crowd choose La Romana; first-time AI travelers, families and party groups choose Punta Cana. La Romana airport (LRM) is much smaller — check flights before deciding.
