5-star Gran Bahia Principe Esmeralda in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, is our chosen destination.
Emma is almost 5 and Leah is not yet 2.
Esmerada is part of the bigger Gran Bahia Principe compound, but slightly more exclusive in that it is rated 5 stars and is located right by the beach. However, this means that to attend the nightly entertainment and most à-la-carte restaurants elsewhere in the greater compound, we have to commute by shuttle as distances seem rather far, especially with Leah often in her stroller.
