Help-Dominican Republic

[flembino]

Hi,
Does anyone know of a hotel in the Dominican Republic or Caribbean that provides all inclusive accommodation and has a creche.
I want to take my partner for his Birthday as a surprise and I really need somewhere with a creche so that we can go scuba diving during one of the days.

No hotel in Dominican Republic that springs to mind with a creche - beaches in Jamaica and Almond beach village in barbados but they are expensive resorts.

But you will find many hotels can provide babysitting during the day. We went Scuba Diving in Mexico and stayed at Blue Bay Club and they looked after our 6 month old for $10 an hour.

We also did the same at Crystal Cove in Barbados when he was 4 months old - went with the marine biologists to tag turtles - they found a new one & named him after our son - well cool.

Pick your hotel & just email them direct to ask if they can do this.

hi flembino, stayed in dr twice, first time in grand ventana, north coast, some kids activities , food good but rooms need updating. second time, east coast in grand palladium,or palladian(i think) v. good kids club, tree houses etc. huge resort so lots to do, you can also use any other hotels facilities on the beach, and all their bars restaurants.nearly all children there caught some kind of bug, so take loads of nappies, sickness stuff etc. they do have own brand but flimsey.

hi flembino,
There is a Club Med in Punta Cana in the DR - they often have a creche. Otherwise there is FDR in Jamaica www.fdrholidays.com/ as well as the Beaches Resorts. Also Club St Lucia by Splash has a Nursery for children aged 3 months to 3 years www.thomsonworldwide.co.uk/kenilworth/kenilworth?action=getAccommodationDetails&geographyKey= 220. Also check out the Sol Sirenis Coral in Varadero Cuba has a creche open until 7pm.
