Moon Palace the Grand Punta Cana - All Inclusive Resort

This is a large, modern all-inclusive with plenty of space to spread out and something for everyone—perfect for couples, friend groups, and families traveling together. Think beach time, pools, on-site activities, great food, and an easy “do as much or as little as you want” vibe. Recommended minimum travel 4 nights from 12/10/26 - 12/14/26. Resort at a glance (helpful for planning): All-inclusive: food + drinks included resort-wide Great for groups: lots to do, lots of space, easy to meet up when you want Family-friendly + quieter options: there are areas with more activity and areas that feel more tucked away Please see more resort information as well as a link to the resort in the "Things to Do" page. To be officially RSVP’d and guaranteed access to the wedding events, you’ll need to book your room reservation within our wedding block at the resort. Once you're booked, you’re considered RSVP’d. Please fill out the questionnaire on the RSVP page by August 15th though so that we have all of your other preferences on file. The link below takes you to our group registration page (preloaded with group rates). You’ll be able to select and upgrade your room category there. We’ll add airfare options as soon as they’re negotiated. If you don’t see an option to make a deposit or payment plan and need one, please reach out. By booking in the room block, you'll receive the following: $250.00 room credit per room, 40% off golf tee times, 15% off spa services, free ground transport to and from the resort with 4+ night stays, and rates valid between 12/7 - 12/17 so that you can make this trip everything you want it to be. If you’re planning to invite people who may not be on the wedding guest list, please let us know—we may need a separate room block (or to expand ours) to keep an accurate event count.

Travel Note

A quick note on safety + travel prep

Like anywhere, smart travel habits go a long way—use standard precautions, especially off-resort. If you like to check official guidance, the U.S. and Canada both advise increased caution due to crime at a level 2 out of 4. This is where most countries are leveled at. Passport: plan on at least 6 months validity past return from travel date and to have a physical passport book, not just the passport card. Dominican Republic e-ticket: required for entry/exit and can be completed once you have flight details (even months ahead). The airline will most likely walk you through this in their portals. Cash: You will want to have some cash on hand before landing in Punta Cana to tip your drivers. The resort will have ATMs available so that you can transact in Eastern Caribbean dollars after getting settled. Exchange Rate: $1.00 USD ~ $63.48 DOP $100.00 DOP ~ $1.58 USD as of 02/03/26
