    Expedia is generally the best website to go to find deals on combined hotel and airfare packages, although they can occasionally be found elsewhere. Still, prospective vacationers should be sure to check out Expedia's Deals section first, which usually has huge discounts and combination packages to the Dominican Republic. For example, they currently are offering flights to and accommodations at the all-inclusive Grand Bahia Principe Punta Cana resort at a combined price of $1,071 per person for six nights.

  6. Are there any great weekend packages?
    Reply

    Expedia occasionally has weekend deals, as does CheapCaribbean. They can be a bit harder to find, however, as most users will have to input their specifically desired dates in order to view them (longer-term packages are generally what are advertised openly). One of the best options is the TRS Cap Cana package, which includes both flights (from most areas of the U.S., though prices will slightly vary) and all-inclusive accommodations for under $800 for a weekend.

    Reply

    Cruises hold even more possibilities! Most cruises need to be booked either through a travel agent or with the cruise line directly, but Expedia also has some cruise deals starting at $399 for seven days. It should be noted, however, that most cruises to the Dominican Republic also make other stops.

    For those who care most about the beautiful location rather than getting luxury treatment every second, there are plenty of more budget-friendly options. CheapCaribbean.com has package options starting in the $300s that also include airfare, and Expedia has plenty of package deals for the Dominican Republic also starting in the $300s. Bookmundi.com meanwhile has the most budget-friendly trips, with some package deals (not including airfare) starting just under $100, though many of their trips include hostel stays rather than hotel rooms.
