There’s a new standard bearer for VIP airport lounges in the Caribbean.

Punta Cana International Airport has unveiled its brand-new VIP lounge, a modern, avant-garde project with a party piece: its own outdoor infinity pool.

The pool, which overlooks the tarmac, is the first of its kind in the region.

“We strive every day to offer an exceptional experience to travelers who rely on Punta Cana International Airport,” said Frank Rainieri, Director of Punta Cana International Airport. “We are thrilled to offer our visitors a unique opportunity to enjoy themselves as they wait for their flight.”

First and business class passengers, along with passengers that purchase the VIP service (it starts at $125) and priority pass holders are eligible for entry.

All the amenities necessary to enjoy the pool are there, from fresh towels to toiletries.
