Cotubanamá National Park Dominican Republic

While you can't stay overnight on Saona Island—it's part of a national park—it makes for a great day out in the Caribbean. It’s a two-hour catamaran trip on gentle Caribbean waters to the island with food, drinks, and dancing, or a 30-minute speedboat if you’re pressed for time. Visiting Saona Island is best done as part of a tour that includes snorkeling and a stop at the waist-deep Blue Lagoon, where you will be able to see starfish. There are tours for various budgets, and it’s best to book ahead online and read reviews to find a package that fits your needs. – Tripadvisor

La Romana 22000 Dominican Republic

Altos de Chavon, is an architectural wonder, a 16th century replica of a Mediterranean village perched high above the Chavón River. The village was designed by Dominican architect Jose Antonio Caro, and created by Italian master designer and cinematographer Roberto Coppa. Dominican artisans handcrafted the stone pathways, decorative ironwork, furniture and enchanting buildings, reviving almost forgotten crafts of metal work and stone carving. Under Coppa's direction, each stone was hand cut, each wooden door frame was handcrafted and each wrought-iron detail hand-forged. Construction of the village began in 1976 and the village was inaugurated in 1982 with the concert of Frank Sinatra at the amphitheater. Altos de Chavon was built as a center of culture for the Dominican people.
