The Dominican Republic is the top Caribbean destination for tourists from the USA and Canada. The coast line is lined with palms and is home to the largest concentration of hotel rooms in the world. Punta Cana has been the winner of TripAdvisors 'Travelers Choice Destinations 2010' and is considered one of the worlds best beaches. A lot of hotel chains own a luxury hotel along the fifty kilometers of pristine beach. Many of the hotels are fairly new and boost all the amenities you can imagine: health spas, various pools, high end bistros and excellent evening amusement.

It all began on December 5, 1492. On that day Christopher Columbus landed on the island of Hispaniola. Hispaniola was home to the Taino Indians. These natives resided in small family groups and were serene and friendly. When Columbus arrived on the island there were approximately 400.000 Indians. Columbus was surprised of the sophisticated level of organization of the Tainos, who had been organized in 5 larger tribes. However most of the Tainos died shortly after the arrival of the Spanish due to the strange diseases brought from Europe.

This is a destination with a special history. Visit this beautiful island close to the USA, it guarantees a great experience. And before you go, read about this tropical island in the numerous travel guides that are available online!
