Flowers, warmth and sea – this is the Dominican Republic

To get to paradise while still on this mortal earth – it's a reality. Only 12 hours of travel – and you will be greeted by the sun, smiling people and cleanest air. We are talking about the Dominican Republic.

As strange as it may seem, even with a visa-free entry to this country, Russians rarely visit it. Probably this is due to the seeming high cost and unfamiliar, unknown names. After all, citizens are much closer to Turkey with its Antalya or Egypt with Hurghada. But having decided on such a trip, you will get a real, incomparable pleasure from the feeling of freedom, happiness and some serenity.

Keep in mind that this country is quite hot – in December the air temperature is 25 degrees. Imagine how pleasant it will be to go from a frosty or slushy winter to a real fairy tale. But do not be afraid of overheating or any strange reactions of the body to such sharp climate changes: first, the air here is not dry, but slightly humid. And second, every room in any hotel has air conditioners – this will give you the opportunity to enjoy coolness. And then, after all, the Dominican Republic is the sea, active water sports, yachts and sandy beaches...

It is worth separately talking about accommodation. Hotels of the Dominican Republic are a model of courtesy, decency, cleanliness and service. You can count on help in organizing excursions, on transfer from the airport and back. A floral aroma penetrates every room, and it's not air fresheners, but thousands of flowering plants that bloom only at night. It is pleasant to sit with a glass of real rum on the balcony of your room, enjoying silence, warmth and incredible comfort.

In general, the hotel business in the Dominican Republic is at a very high level – the tourism industry here is one of the main ways of earning money and filling the treasury. If you come here with children, then give preference to hotels with water parks, and for newlyweds, special apartments will be offered.

Hotels of the Dominican Republic on the Caribbean Sea are the optimal option for young, cheerful and active groups. Here you can do diving (rent equipment, an instructor is available at the hotel), visit clubs with night discos, and browse many small souvenir shops. Such hotels are not alien to bodily pleasures – SPA salons, massages, pools and even fitness centers will surely attract the attention of young people.

A distant, interesting country with many sights, unusual culture and dolphins... The aroma of Dominican flowers and the sound of the surf will literally haunt you, so everyone who has been here at least once returns!
