If you're searching for an affordable, all-inclusive resort for a family vacation in a tropical paradise, I have a new favorite: Sunscape Coco Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. On a recent vacation, my family loved the family-friendly activities, which are perfect for all ages. We also loved that the resort is on the smaller side, and while it provided all the amenities, it was more intimate and easy to navigate.

We always appreciate the all-inclusive style resorts, because you get unlimited access to dining, refreshing drinks, and tons of activities without worrying about extra costs. My husband always says he loves putting his wallet in the safe and not getting it out until it's time to go home! And this resort skimps on nothing.

Read on for all the details about the Sunscape Coco Punta Cana Resort and why it's the perfect all-inclusive resort for families. Check out more of our favorite all-inclusive resorts for families and also our favorite warm and sunny family vacation ideas. They're both in our Family Travel Guide.

Affordability and Convenience at Sunscape Coco Punta Cana 

After landing at the Punta Cana International Airport, we had a quick, 20-minute car ride to the resort. This is awesome - my family is big on not wasting precious vacation time!

Like any all-inclusive resort, the rates will vary depending on when you travel. According to Punta Cana Adventures, "You can save money on accommodations when visiting Punta Cana by booking outside the peak tourist season, from October to December or April to September." The winter months are their high season, so travelers looking to book in January, February, and March will see more expensive rates. 

3 other ways to save money at Sunscape: use Hyatt points, become a World of Hyatt Member (which is free), and check the special offers section of their website.

Accommodations at Sunscape Coco Punta Cana 

When Sunscape Coco became part of Hyatt’s Inclusive Collection in 2023, it underwent a glow-up, and it shows.

Families choose from a variety of different levels of rooms, from a basic room with two queen beds, all the way to a deluxe family suite. We stayed in a standard room and found it more spacious than typical hotel rooms. The best part about Sunscape's accommodations is that most of the rooms provide full or partial ocean views or even oceanfront views.

Beach and Pools at Sunscape Coco Punta Cana 

The resort sits on the pristine Bavaro Beach in Punta Cana. Literally on the beach; you can go right from the pool to the beach and back again. It has everything you imagine in your ideal beach dreams—white sand, blue water, and palm trees. Even better, we had no trouble finding seats for relaxing. 

We spent most of our time at the pools, of which there are seven. This includes a kids' splash pool and a pool with two water slides. The main pool is where all the action is, with staff engaging the guests in games and dances.

Dining at Sunscape Coco Punta Cana 

The resort offers twelve dining options, so families never have to eat the same thing. Some highlights for us were Chopsticks, featuring a hibachi experience; Tierra, with all-you-can eat meat, and Coco Cafe; where we loved getting fancy coffee drinks and pastries any time of day. We also got to enjoy Le Petit Chef Dining Experience, a truly unique offering, with a virtual little chef who danced around and entertained the kids with mischief during dinner. 

Sunscape Coco Punta Cana truly has something for every type of family vacation. Whether you want a lively, activity-packed stay or a relaxing escape, this all-inclusive resort has you covered.
