Traveling like a rock star in the Dominican Republic

Even if you’re not blown by this music-themed Dominican Republic resort’s exceptional inclusions (unlimited phone calls to the US and Canada; butler service; and a slick hospitality center for late checkouts among them), you just might be wowed by the view from this Rock Star suite.

Overlooking the Sun Pool (just one of the mega resort’s 13), the balcony of the posh roost is the perfect perch from which to enjoy some reading, reclining and a rum cocktail as you watch frothy waves kiss bone-white Punta Cana sands and majestic palm trees sway in the breeze.

We won’t blame you if you linger here until dusk, when the setting sun streaks the sky with stunning swaths of purple and orange – a fitting tribute to a day well spent.
