All Inclusive deals to Dominican Republic

Punta Cana, Dominican Republic has long been a prime destination for experiencing perfect weather and some of the finest white sand beaches in the world-and doing it in affordable, all-inclusive luxury.

Now, there are even more reasons to go. The Barcelo Bavaro Beach Resort is offering a hybrid golf and all-inclusive experience at its 2, 000-room property-half of which is adults-only. For rates starting at $160 per night per person, you get the resort's traditional all-inclusive experience-food and drink at any of the 14 restaurants and 16 bars on property, and access to amenities like a casino and water park-plus a daily round at the P.B Dye-designed Lakes course. Threaded around 25 inland lakes and through a mangrove forest, the Lakes is the ideal combination of challenging and playable.

It's easy to get a direct flight daily from New York, Boston, Atlanta, Miami and Charlotte, and to understand why Punta Cana is one of the fastest growing airports in the world in terms of traffic. All you have to do is look at the December weather forecast. The average high is 75, while the average low is 70.

Don't forget your passport.
