Swim in the mermaid pool at Royalton CHIC Punta Cana

Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway or a vacation with friends, the adults only Royalton CHIC Punta Cana offers indulgent amenities on the shores of Punta Cana's famous Uvero Alto Beach. This beautiful CHIC by Royalton property is home to a unique mermaid pool, which has a glass wall on one side that’s perfect for taking the ultimate Instagram shot. The resort is a haven for party lovers (think Vegas meets Miami Beach in a tropical setting), with a different event every night of the week and an outdoor DJ booth with local DJs spinning some of the hottest songs. For an extra special occasion, book the CHIC Mansion – a private 11,500 square-foot mansion with six luxurious guestrooms and a private pool.

One of the newest additions to the Royalton family is Royalton Antigua Resort and Spa.
