Did you forget to pack your John Travolta Saturday Night Fever White Suit for this vacation? “No” is the faint cry we hear! Really, honestly speaking we were hoping for more of a “Yes Actually” from most of you!
However, choice of clothes and what to wear is the least of your problems, more like where to hop when the sun goes down and the beat goes up will be your biggest dilemma of the night!
Punta Cana has some first class, first rate cool, beach hang outs, that make “chilling out” an art form.  From Beach, Bowling Alley, Clubs to Casinos what ever tickles your toes, there is a good choice for everybody, so release some tropical energy, get a little Caribbean craziness inside you and be prepared to know why Latino dancing is an adrenalin pump of a ride. So Salsa on and from the east coast of the Dominican Republic we present to you our easy to read Punta Cana Nightlife Guide!

You can hear the Latino sounds blasting out as you enter this two storey club! Strictly Latino music only downstairs with house and hip-hop on the second floor! Start the night marveling at the Dominican professionals cruising across the dance floor, and if you feel that you just cannot compete or are even too tired to attempt a little “Merengue Madness”, have no fear! Upstairs are comfy couches to take the weight off and the drinks in giving you a “birds eye” view of all the downstairs action.  Three bars make for plenty of choice to get your drinks in and if the RedBull is working its magic there are plenty of stages to dance on – Come on you’re on holiday – You’ll never see these people again!!
