"Club Med offers young, enthusiastic international staff and activities galore; it’s especially good for parents looking to outsource care for their kids and teenagers."

"On the Dominican’s eastern shore, the all-inclusive Club Med Punta Cana sits on a private...beach. ... The 553 tri-level bungalows are spread throughout the resort's manicured tropical landscape."

"This all-inclusive village resort, which was only the second hotel to open in the region more than three decades ago, is located close to the airport, but not close enough to be bothered by the noise."

It is a tad more pricy than the nearby and similar Punta Cana Resort and Club, while travelers seeking to avoid the ruckus of children having a good time might consider the deluxe and tranquil Tortuga Bay Hotel.

"Club Med Punta Cana is a four-pearl, oceanfront all-inclusive resort that's popular with families and 10 minutes from Punta Cana’s international airport."
