An extensive selection of active pursuits is not needed to create the perfect vacation. While some travelers would be happier staying at a resort with a lot of recreational activities available, others would be perfectly happy with very limited recreational options, because they'd rather spend their time relaxing and exploring their surroundings. Even though it doesn't offer the largest assortment of, recreational offerings the Paradisus Punta Cana may still have exactly what you're looking for.

Water and Fitness

While each vacationer has their own agenda, you'll find all kinds of activities and attractions in the Dominican Republic. Heading to the hotel's pool probably isn't your main priority, even though it provides an excellent way to spend some of your time.

Tennis

The hotel offers tennis, but it hasn't received high ratings for this amenity. There are 585 rooms and 4 courts. This averages out to approximately 351 guests per tennis court, which isn't as favorable as some hotels in the region. There will be opportunities to play a match, but during the high season you may have to find a slow time to use the courts, like when other guests are sunning at the beach. Guests of the hotel can play evening matches on a lit tennis court. This is a great option for those travelers who want to spend their afternoon at th beach.

If you really have a passion for the game, you might want to compare this hotel to others that also offer tennis – especially those hotels which are the most highly rated for tennis. Other hotels that may be worth considering are Casa de Campo as well as Riu Melao.

Golf

Although a golf course isn't one of the amenities, if you'd like to play some golf during your vacation, the hotel can help you make reservations with one of the local golf courses. The nearest golf course to the Paradisus Punta Cana is Bavaro, located 10.8 miles northwest of the hotel.
