Overview
Why experience only one side of the Dominican Republic? This self-drive vacation combines the celebrated beaches and lively atmosphere of Punta Cana with the relaxed coastal character of La Romana and Bayahibe.
Begin with three nights in Punta Cana, where white-sand beaches, turquoise water and a wide choice of restaurants and activities set the Caribbean mood. Then drive to La Romana for another three nights, giving you easy access to Bayahibe, Altos de Chavón and optional excursions to Saona Island.
Your seven-day rental car gives you the freedom to travel independently, stop wherever you wish and explore beyond your hotel. Accommodation and car category can be selected during booking, allowing you to create the vacation that suits your style and budget.
