Dominican Republic Vacation
Back To Home Page
Our dream vacation:   April 10 - April 17, 2006  
We stayed at "Ocean Sands Beach & Golf Resort" in Punta Cana.   Wow!
A beautiful sunset with the palm trees (I had never seen a palm tree before!   I love them!).
This is a beautiful photos of the villa and pool bar reflecting onto the water.   It's hard to believe that this is one of the pools.
Here's my hubby, David, protecting my favourite little palm tree from the rain!

Looking across to the other side of the pool.   The villa we stayed in is just a little further to the left than the one shown.
Another incredible pic of the sunset over the water.   This is one of the pools, not a lake or the ocean as many people would think.
A beautiful pic of the beach.

David standing next to the VIP golf cart.   The resort was so large that they had trolleys and golf carts to travel around in.
Here's David, my Aunt Cathy, and Uncle Tony leaving the beach grill (yummy food!).
A beautiful photo of David inside the lobby of our villa.

A view of one of the roads within the resort; the pools and beach are straight ahead, and the restaurants are behind me.
Standing at the edge of the beach looking towards one of the pools.
This is David and "Honey", one of the dogs who lived with one of the guys who had a little shop on the beach selling necklaces, beautiful scarves, and various other neat stuff.   Very cute and friendly dog.

A sweet embrace with my hubby; this is the gazebo where they perform marriage ceremonies (I think).
Dave carrying "Shammy", my inflatable killer whale that I bought while I was down there.   We brought it back and it lives in my brother's pool.   Our room was straight ahead on the bottom floor.
The water was a beautiful turqoise, and the sand was very fine and white!   I can't believe how beautiful it was.

David trying to climb up the palm tree.
You know it's hot when you see a dog seeking shade under a beach chair!   Too cute.
They had a tour of the kitchen area one night.   Super big and clean.   They had dozens of pieces like this, made out of fruit and veggies.   They were beautiful.

My Uncle Tony and Aunt Cathy just lounging in the pool.   We spent most of our days in the pool.
On the 2nd story inside our villa, just outside Tony and Cathy's room.   Our room would have been the 1st door on the right, bottom floor.
A photo of the poolbar where Wandy worked; he was super nice and funny!

A photo of the main courtyard.   The bowling alley is straight ahead; Tony, David, and I went bowling 1 afternoon and I was the only one who did not get a strike.   :-(
Too little .....
Too big .....

Just right!
David took this photo of the coconuts.
This is me outside our room; notice Shammy in the background.

The vendors on the beach; Tony and David refer to them as "wack-a-moles" because they are always popping in and out of their little shops trying to make sales.
The beach had dozens of little shelters with screens to help block the sunlight.   We did not spend much time on the beach; we prefered hanging out in the pools.
A beautiful photo of one of the pools.   Both the pools sloped down like a beach; they were awesome!
