About This Resort

A family-friendly Dreams resort on the Dominican coast with a clever perk: guests 18 and over get free run of the neighboring adults-only Secrets Playa Esmeralda, so couples and parents get grown-up dining and bars next door. Best of both worlds on one beach. Bávaro sun runs essentially year-round.

This resort is in an excellent location with pristine beaches. About an hour and 20 minute drive gets you here from PUJ airport. We stayed preferred in an ocean view room.
