Set on a remote palm-studded beach in Uvero Alto, approximately 42 kilometers from the international airport in Punta Cana, Dreams Onyx delivers an upscale experience designed for couples, families and friends.

“This is a lovely modern hotel with great staff, lots of entertainment offerings and good food. You can’t go wrong with the beach here—after all, you are in Punta Cana—and there’s plenty to keep you busy around the clock.” — Sandi Cooper, Maritime Travel agent, Halifax, NS
