Okay, so you're probably sitting at your computer, or on your phone during a break from work or school. You're bored, or antsy, or ready for a change. We feel you—so how about planning a trip?
Travel is a great way to step away from the day-to-day, take a deep breath, and appreciate life and the important people in it. And traveling with your special someone is a great way to build memories together, enjoy each other's company, and mix up the routine a bit!
With that in mind, here are five reasons you should consider the Dominican Republic's Club Med Punta Cana for your next bae-cation (get it, bae + vacation?!):
1. It's super romantic
Sure, Club Med has a reputation for being more family-oriented. And while that's still a big draw, there's certainly a place for just you and your boo! In fact, there's a new section of the property designed just for adults—The Zen Oasis. This exclusive area features its own pool, bar, and deluxe accommodations. And since it's adults only, you'll have as much quiet time as you can handle!
2. It's super relaxing
Romance and relaxation go hand-in-hand, especially at Club Med Punta Cana. Want a romantic dinner by the sea? Check. A relaxing day getting a couples massage on the beach? Check. When you're relaxed, it's hard to be in anything but happy, which not only makes your trip more enjoyable, but means you'll be feeling the love from your number one squeeze more than ever!
3. It's super fun
Yeah, yeah, there's plenty of relaxation and romance to be had, but what about the adventure? Well, lucky for you, there's plenty of that, too! Club Med CREACTIVE by Cirque du Soleil is a unique experience, currently only available at Club Med Punta Cana. You can learn how to swing on a trapeze, flip around on some bungee cords—you name it! In fact, Neil Patrick Harris and his adorable family were hanging out there recently!
Then there's all the water fun, from kayaking to snorkeling to wind-surfing and so much more. Trust us, there's plenty to keep you busy!
4. It's super inclusive
As with most things in life, as members of the LGBTQ community, we want to make sure our travel experiences are safe. Most of us want to avoid situations where discrimination and homophobia abound.
Luckily, Club Med Punta Cana is welcoming and inclusive! The staff is heart-felt and ready to help however they can. They want to make sure all guests have an amazing time. From the dinner reservations to the spa treatments, LGBTQ inclusivity is a given. There's even great diversity among the staff—people from all over the world, speaking many languages, representing many cultures and many sexual identities.
5. It's super memorable
If you're looking for a bae-cation destination you won't soon forget, this is the place. You'll make memories that will last a lifetime. And summer is almost upon us, the perfect time to shake up the routine and plan a trip with the love of your life.
So what are you waiting for?
