Where to stay in Dominican Republic?

We went a couple years ago and stayed at the secrets Punta cana.  All inclusive, adults only, and my wife and a I loved it.  Great setup, beach is amazing in that the sand is like flower and never gets hot like Hawaii.  There is a sister resort next door that you can go to, but they can't come to yours. 
Went deep sea fishing and the best zipline I've ever been on.  One was over a mile long and really fast. 
Nobody on YOUR beach trying to sell anything and tons of fun events at the resort.

Just want to bump this back up, getting close to buying tickets and making a final decision, the wife is all over me to get booked.  Looks like a couple places on the radar and time to go is in May? Also sounds like diving might be better than snorkeling, where was that zip line?  Thanks for the info all, appreciate it.

And if the wife is worried about safely, nobody ever felt like safety was not priority #1.  Tons of fun!!!

The wife just booked a trip to Punta Cana for the end of next month. Booked through Costco for a good price. “Melia Punta Cana Beach Resort”. We did a similar trip to Jamaica for our honey moon and it was great, so hopefully this will be also.

Should be great.  I stayed at a Melia in Mexico, great place.

Anyone been to or heard about the Live Aqua beach resort?  Including air fare 1,300 a night.

Good to hear! We are excited to go. I just need to look up some fishing charters. Any opinion on in-shore vs. off shore? Did an in shore trip (fishing for jacks, snapper, mackerel) in the keys and had a blast. Plenty of action, but haven’t been off shore trolling before. Sorry for the derail!

Bumping this to the top. I booked an off shore trip for mahi, wahoo, sailfish and some others while we are there in March. Should be fun!
