Punta Cana (Bavaro Beach), Dominican Republic
Royalton Punta Cana's own restaurants number around 10, but the Stay at 1, Play at 2 access to Royalton Splash adds another 4–5 dining options, bringing the effective total to roughly 15 venues. Book C/X Culinary Experience on arrival day — it's the only extra-charge venue and fills fast. Zen teppanyaki requires a reservation and is worth doing once.
