Our Family Destinations in the Dominican Republic
Punta Cana
Punta Cana is the Dominican Caribbean's top sun-and-beach destination. Our Grand Palladium Hotels & Resorts hotels sit right on Bávaro Beach, with direct access to the sea for swimming, surfing or kayaking, and all the comforts of an integrated complex, so getting around with kids is easy from minute one.
Services and Activities Designed for the Whole Family
Every age group has something of its own. These are the main services and experiences you'll find at our family hotels in Punta Cana.
For the Little Ones
Our kids' clubs are organised by age (Baby Club for ages 1 to 3, Mini Club for ages 4 to 12 and Black & White Junior Club for teens) and offer a daily programme and specialised staff, so the little ones can make friends and have their own adventure while you unwind. Daytime entertainment and water areas are designed for different ages, with games, workshops and outdoor activities.
For the Whole Family
Direct beach access, family pools and water sports are the big shared plan. On top of that, there are activities to enjoy as a family within the resort: shows, open-air cinema, beach sports and experiences to discover the Caribbean surroundings together.
For Parents
Travelling with kids doesn't mean giving up your own plans. While the little ones enjoy their programme, you can book a treatment at Zentropia Palladium Spa & Wellness, dine at one of the specialty restaurants, try premium dining experiences such as a floating breakfast or simply relax by the sea.
Family Selection
Within the Grand Palladium Hotels & Resorts complex in Bávaro you'll find Family Selection at Grand Palladium Select Bávaro, a hotel designed for families looking for a more personalised, premium experience while still enjoying the resort atmosphere.
Guests enjoy private check-in, a butler service before and during their stay, the Family Boss programme for kids (welcome gifts, a bubble bath with balloons, milk and cookies before bed…) and access to the facilities across the whole complex. Ideal if you're travelling with little ones and want to forget about the small details.

When is the best time to visit Punta Cana with the family?
Punta Cana is warm all year round, but the dry season (roughly December to April) is usually the most comfortable time to travel with kids: less rain, less humidity and a calmer sea. It's also high season, so it's a good idea to book in advance.
