Answer 1

I haven't been there but the Iberostar for Weddings and Honeymooners is great.  As for Peak Tourist time you will have just hit the school summer holidays.  As for the weather that should be great - try looking on www.debbiesdominicanrepublic for reviews on all hotels and resorts.  But wherever you go I'm sure you will have a lovely time.  Congratulations.

Answer 2

We have traveled to the Dominican Republic specifically Punta Cana three times in the last three years.  The last time was this past January and were married there!  

We have stayed at Dreams Punta Cana the past three times - and absolutely love it.  We have seen the Melia Caribe when dropping off people at other resorts - and it looked very nice.  

The peak tourist season is generally December - April.  Occupancy will not be as high in the summer and the weather will be very hot and humid.  But still lovely.  

You could check out a couple different websites --

www.dreamsresorts.com

www.sunscaperesorts.com

They have forums on each page that can tell you more about the resorts that we really enjoy. Plus a lot of the regulars to the boards are also VERY VERY frequent visitors to the Dominican Republic.  

Good Luck! You'll love the Dominican Republic!!

Answer 3

The Melia resorts are just excellent! so don't worry you will have a blast. The occupation is normal in that time of year.

Congratulations and enjoy it!

Answer 4

That is regular season (medium) for tourist.

The weather perfect about 27-30 Celsius.

Very nice Resort, so you would have a good time.

Good luck!!

Congrats!!

Answer 5

I stayed at the Melia Caribe Tropical and LOVED it!! I went with a group of 5 family members of varying ages and interests and we all loved it. The beach is great, the restaurant options many and all delicious, and there is plenty to do.

Good luck!
