Both of the Paradisus hotels are desirable addresses, but frankly, if forced to choose, we'd opt for the Paradisus Palma Real.

"This luxury all-inclusive is a visual showstopper especially its central plaza by night, which sparkles under dramatic lighting." Full review

You won't need to upgrade, but if you choose the adults-only Royal Service, you'll get to experience the smashing new contemporary Royal Club lounge and restaurant.

"The top Bávaro resort – slightly more expensive but well worth it, with opulent contemporary architecture, sculpted tropical gardens, luxury suites... and access to the Cocotal golf course."

"It features a Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course; a 48,000-sq-ft casino; 65,000 sq ft of conference and event space; and a casino with 457 slots, 40 gaming tables, a poker room and a VIP lounge." Full review

"Hard Rock's first all-inclusive property has its own unique identity, different from any other Dominican resort, and it's a great choice if you want nightlife and a busy, fun atmosphere." Full review

The oversized rooms and suites are deluxe, but you need to decide if you’d prefer to be where the action is—closer to reception, restaurants, and the casino—or you could choose to be closer to the beach, rooms like a three-bedroom, rock star suite overlooking the Caribbean.
