Along the way, we'll stop at Blue Lagoon , a natural pool in the middle of the sea. This incredible sandbank is home to dozens of starfish , and you can swim with them!

When we reach Saona Island , we'll be welcomed by the sight of paradise beaches full of coconut trees. After a refreshing dip, we'll renew our energy with a typical Dominican lunch . Rice, meat, fresh fish, salad and tropical fruits - delicious!

In the afternoon, you'll have three hours of free time to walk along Las Palmillas beach , swim in the sea, relax on the sand... it's up to you!

At 2:30 pm, we'll return to the catamaran and start the return trip to the port of Bayahibe . During the cruise, we'll dance bachata, merengue and other Caribbean rhythms, the perfect end to an unforgettable day!

  • sephorak553 0 contributions 3.0 of 5 bubbles Would not per se recommend but if it rains why not For the price it’s ok but I actually expected a bit more the time what it was. It was a bit in the middle of nowhere but luckily the shuttle brings you back and forth to the resort. I don’t particularly think the place brings lots of value but for the price it’s ok I guess Read more Written November 21, 2023
  • kte2219 0 contributions 2.0 of 5 bubbles “Private” Transfers not so Private I booked a last minute trip with my husband thru Expedia to Punta Cana in which I selected & purchased “private” transfers to & from airport. The same day that I booked I received a text from Angel to confirm my booking also with instructions for when we arrived. I loved the professionalism & the kindness at that moment. We arrived the following day to Punta Cana I received a welcome text with the the drivers name which was Alejandro whom was super nice & professional I’d rate him 5 stars. He picked us up in a private vehicle (a Suburban) & also gifted us a souvenir bottle of Mamajuana which was such a nice gesture. We arrived to the resort in about 25 mins which was a smooth ride. The day before our departure I received my confirmation with the drivers name Antonio & pick up time which was 11:30am (I found it strange because my flight was at 3:45pm and that’s a little too early) so far so good. I was so pleased with the pick up from airport that I told my husband if the pickup to go to the airport were to be the same quality of service, I would put the most AMAZING review. Unfortunately it was NOT. The driver arrived on time in a transportation van which I didn’t question because with other companies that I’ve booked private transportation, they’ve used those vehicles for just us two. Once he opened the trunk to put in our suitcases, my husband tells me that there’s people in the vehicle. I immediately told the driver that I book private NOT shared. He tells me that he doesn’t know because he only follows what the company tells him which I understood. We end up leaving on that shared transportation because we had no choice. I text Angel to dispute issue he tells me “Sorry, we don’t offer private service that we were lucky that our first transfer was private because their service is shared.” I told him that our voucher states PRIVATE & that’s what it said when I purchased. I sent him the screenshots (which I’ll share here) he then apologizes tells me “that it’s an error of the girl from operations, that private is triple the cost for obvious reasons. That if he would’ve had another driver they would’ve sent me in a private one but that they were going to burst from how busy operations were”(which is NOT my problem). Si no lo dañan a la entrada, lo dañan a la salida. Which means if they don’t mess up at the beginning they mess it up at the end. I reached out to Expedia whom stated that my reservation should be private, so it’s the suppliers mistake. Luckily Expedia issued me a credit which Somos Viajes should’ve done because I had to settle because they were swamped with work. Read more Written May 18, 2023
  • woodelinemoncion 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Extremely Excellent Seruce Victor and Manuel greeted my sister and I with a very pleasant smile, they toke really good care of us from private transportations to shopping areas to giving us extremely great hospitality. Victor (who speaks both English and Spanish with a little attempt at creole lol) went above and beyond to ensure that I had an amazing birthday. He assisted us with (CHEAPER) tours and even went out of his way to show us a little bit of night life in Punta Cana. We were very much grateful for such an amazing experience and they ensured it was worth returning for. Thank You Manuel and Victor for your amazing service. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Read more Written April 14, 2023
