Coconut palms, fair sand beaches and therapeutic sun showers - all symbols of Punta Cana, and all easily accessed from SMILE at Grand Paradise Beach Resort & Spa. Punta Cana's pedigree of world class beaches and manicured golf greens has made it, deservedly, the most dynamic destination in the Dominican Republic and arguably the most popular place in the entire Caribbean. Smile at Grand Paradise Bavaro brings you here, where easy sea breezes drift past lounge chairs, windsurfers and deliciously chilled cocktails.

The resort has plenty of activities to fill your days, from the time the rising sun provokes the soft shoreline until it slips back under the calm Caribbean waters. Dance classes, volleyball, windsurfing and snorkeling encourage an active itinerary, but seven pools promote the popular Caribbean pastime of complete relaxation and all-inclusive indulgence. The supervised Kids Club offers fun games and organized activities to ensure that all ages benefit from the services and amenities available at this family friendly resort.

The eight a la carte restaurants available during your stay at Grand Paradise Bavaro are sure to leave you sated, and with even more bars to choose from you can easily pluck your favourite cocktail or domestic beer to accompany your poolside relaxation - make sure to sample the region's revered rum. The resort has a spa on site with lavish treatments if you wish, and Superior Gardenview Rooms comfort you with air conditioning and satellite TV.

When venturing off the resort, remember that world-class golf is available at eight different courses in Punta Cana, and several diving companies regularly traverse the underwater wonders of the region. Shopping for local handicrafts adds colour to any spree, and the nightly entertainment offered on the resort can be followed by a night out in one of Punta Cana's many lively bars or clubs.
