Zoëtry Agua Punta Cana

At this serene oceanfront resort, rustic, natural beauty and high architectural style blend seamlessly. The newest and best accommodations include swim-out suites and ocean-view rooms, including a penthouse with a private elevator.

This honeymooners favorite is an all-inclusive five-star resort with a contemporary island feel. There are thatched on all the buildings along a pair of sinuous pools, with weathered-wood boardwalks to connect the upper levels.

The third property from the wellness-focused Zoëtry brand is an all-inclusive, all-suite encampment on the northeast coast of the Dominican Republic. The low-lit rooms utilize a simple design of hardwood floors and stone accents, and many have balconies overlooking the ocean.

This romantic all-suite beachfront retreat north of the sprawling all-inclusives of Punta Cana is a diamond literally in the rough – the last two miles of the approach road are so bone rattling that it may be worth ponying up more than $250 for the ten-minute helicopter transfer from the airport in Punta Cana. But behind the resort's unmarked security gate, Zoëtry is breathtaking.

The Zoetry Agua is one of the most luxurious and tranquil all-inclusive resorts in the Dominican Republic. The rustic ambience and zen energy are on the opposite end up the spectrum from what you'll find at the booze-fueled all-inclusives around Bavaro.
