Imagine yourself surrounded by verdant jungle, swaying palm trees and sparkling turquoise waters, your feet in powdery white sand and your head lost in the clouds. 

It’s not just a fantasy: at Emotions by Hodelpa, travelers can see and experience the lush tropical beauty of one of Puerto Plata’s best beaches, the Playa Dorada, and encounter local cultures and histories with an all-inclusive resort as their home base. 

Exploring Puerto Plata

Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic is a breathtaking destination that combines beautiful Caribbean natural wonders with centuries-worth of history and culture to explore. 

When travelers visit the region, they’ll find plenty of historical sites, like Fort San Felipe, Puerto Plata’s Victorian architecture in its historic downtown, or the Amber Museum, where they can learn about how the half-island nation is home to the region’s best amber mines. 

Nature lovers will adore encountering the region’s native wildlife at Ocean World Adventure Park and capturing that perfect rainforest Instagram photo at the Charcos de Damajagua, which is a collection of 27 different waterfalls and natural pools. 

While at Emotions by Hodelpa, guests can also enjoy beaching it on the scenic Playa Dorada and taking advantage of the resort’s excursions, which include snorkeling, scuba diving, windsurfing and more.

The All-Inclusive Experience at Emotions by Hodelpa

Guests at Emotions by Hodelpa will enjoy a seamless, all-inclusive resort experience that goes well beyond food and Wi-Fi. 

The resort offers seven different room configurations to choose from to suit various accommodation needs. These include swim-out room options with a king bed or two queen beds, adults-only rooms and even a family suite option that accommodates up to five guests. 

Travelers will enjoy having their own balcony or terrace, lounge area and even private jacuzzis, depending on room type. 

No matter what room type a guest chooses, they’ll be able to enjoy plenty of amazing activities: the resort features six restaurants, four drinking venues, a pool and beach, fitness center and tennis court, live entertainment, daily enrichment classes that include merengue and salsa dancing, a kids club and unlimited drinks. 

Emotions by Hodelpa’s four specialty restaurants offers flavors that suit every palate, which offer Italian fare, fresh seafood, Mexican food and, a special favorite, Dominican fusion at Orégano. 

Guests can spend an entire day enjoying the resort’s amenities and experiences. Kids and teens can enjoy dedicated spaces to socialize and play inside the resort’s kids and teens club, while their parents and other adults can play golf, tennis, beach volleyball or partake in a few optional tours or excursions to some of Puerto Plata’s amazing attractions and sites. 

When the kids go to sleep and the sun sinks beyond the sea, the resort still delivers on great experiences. Adults can sip wine at Oaks or play pub games with a refreshing brew at Milwaukee, all the while making new friends or simply spending quality time with loved ones.

A Perfect Blend of Adventure and Relaxation

Travelers heading on a resort vacation to Emotions by Hodelpa will love combining a peaceful, no-fuss all-inclusive vacation with daily excursions and tours into Puerto Plata’s many amazing sites. The resort offers excursions to sites like the Temple of the Americas, considered the first Catholic church in the Americas, or to Laguna Gri-Gri, one of the region’s best bird sanctuaries. 

We recommend making the best of a trip to Puerto Plata by escaping the winter chill and visiting from November through April. That’ll ensure you’ll likely miss most of the tropical storm or hurricane weather and that you’ll enjoy the island’s endless warm weather. 

The resort offers transfers to and from the nearest international airport, Gregorio Luperón International Airport, which is located only fifteen minutes away by car. 

Emotions by Hodelpa is a great choice for travelers who want to combine a tropical beach escape with opportunities to choose their own adventures. It offers adults-only and family-friendly accommodation options, along with plenty of guided tours and excursions off-property in fascinating Puerto Plata.

Travel advisors should consider contacting the dedicated travel advisor team to learn more, and take advantage of the resort’s travel agent portal, which offers opportunities for discounted stays
