- Having lost that extra 2' in the airport, we jumped on our transfer to the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Punta Cana. Welcome drinks upon arrival and WOW, just WOW! The resort and room were amazing. Quick change, which meant a shower rather that an in room Jacuzzi, before heading to the welcome party. Had a few cocktails and checked out the poker room.

In sunny Punta Cana, the casinos start heating up when the sun starts going down. Most of the casinos in Punta Cana open in the late afternoon and keep their doors open until the early morning hours. After a day at the beach or a few hours sailing on a catamaran, heading to one of the casinos in Punta Cana is a great way to keep the fun going. You’ll find the casinos in Punta Cana at the larger all inclusive resorts, and while the casinos aren’t exactly large, they offer an authentic gambling experience nonetheless. Flashing lights, the sounds of slot machines, and the occasional roar of excited winners fill the air at the Punta Cana casinos, and the complimentary drinks certainly flow, so you can expect plenty of action. The great thing about staying at one of the Punta Cana casino resorts is the fact that you’ll not only enjoy the casino, but also a range of facilities, activities, and dining choices. These all inclusive Punta Cana resorts know how to show visitors a good time, and truth be told, they are among the most impressive resorts in all the Caribbean.
Many people who have tried gambling in Punta Cana have come away from the experience drawing comparisons to Las Vegas. Granted, the Punta Cana casinos are not as extravagant or large as the Vegas casinos, but you can still enjoy a number of different games and a highly-charged atmosphere. Both Dominican Pesos and American Dollars are accepted at the Punta Cana casinos, so you can place your bets in either currency. Generally, those using Pesos can place lower bets if they are interested. As mentioned, the casinos here open in the afternoon and don’t close until the early morning. That’s plenty of time to duck in for some gaming action before or after dinner. Punta Cana might not be the nightlife capital of the world, but when you consider the restaurants, the casinos, and the bars that the Punta Cana casino resorts offer, you can certainly party until the break of dawn if you’re up for it. Just remember to be responsible when gambling in Punta Cana. Most people will tell you that it’s a good idea to stick to the games that you know when gambling wherever you go. If you have the time before you leave for your Punta Cana vacation, learning some new games can help you better enjoy the overall experience once you arrive.
In addition to slot machines, most of the Punta Cana casinos also feature table games and video poker. Among the table games that are typically on offer are blackjack, Caribbean stud poker, craps, baccarat, and roulette. You can expect the odds to be the same as they would be in Las Vegas when gambling in Punta Cana, so in other words, they’re not in your favor. Of course, you can win some money, and when you find yourself ahead, it’s usually a good time to quit. You can put your winnings towards a treatment at one of the Punta Cana spas, or perhaps an extra round of golf or two. There are tons of fun things to do in Punta Cana, so if you walk away from the casinos with extra money, it won’t be difficult to spend.

When it comes to choosing from the extensive list of Punta Cana casino resorts, you’re bound to find the right fit for your tastes and preferences. Some of the resorts are more family-oriented, while others cater specifically to adults, so you can choose accordingly depending on your group. Even if there are members of your group who don’t gamble, they are bound to enjoy their stay at a Punta Cana casino resort regardless. It’s hard to argue the merits of a Punta Cana all inclusive vacation. If luxury Punta Cana hotels are your aim, some of the Punta Cana resort casinos that you might prefer include Excellence Punta Cana, Paradisus Punta Cana, and the Moon Palace Casino Golf and Spa Resort. For those who want to save a bit on their overall rates, other resort casinos like the Riu Palace, the Dreams Resort and Spa, and the Punta Cana Princess All Suites Resort might be a better fit. You won’t sacrifice much staying at these excellent resorts. The Majestic Colonial Punta Cana is in the middle of the pack and is worth considering as well. Most of the casinos will welcome visitors who aren’t staying at the hotel that they are affiliated with, so you can check out other casinos on the side if you please.
