Punta Cana is a very nice area, as long as you're at one of the all inclusive resorts. Beaches are mostly white, soft sand (and also somewhat European) and the water is clear, aqua in color. Just be leery that October is hurricane season.
If you're thinking about venturing outside of the all-inclusive, it may be worth renting a car for a day and driving around to see a little bit of the inland area (e.g. Higuey). There's just something about seeing all the mopeds and cycles (a way of life for most) when you can fit a family of 5 on the same moped. You could also swing by one of the tobacco plantations and pick up some very good cigars at a great price.

I would definitely venture out for a day trip or two. I am been to a lot of poor areas and never had an issue.
Are there tobacco plantations near punta cana?

hola como estas...
I have been to Jamaica and cayman islands and Hawaii several times. DR has always been high on my list of islands in the caribbean to visit.
What seems appealing is it has good beaches, culture and gambling.
Certain islands not much to do, and we like too booze it up and have fun.

If you do an all-inclusive, you are missing out on the land and culture, IMO. Wonderful people.
