Bávaro & Punta Cana
This small Italian-owned development has none of the grandiose ambitions of the nearby all-inclusives to be all things to all people. For those seeking more modest surroundings and a community feel, this longtime favorite offers 50 renovated suites, all with small private patios or balconies, some with oceanfront views.
There are several restaurants nearby, as well as a bar, a holistic spa, a small fitness center and a swimming pool. Some units have a two-night minimum.
