Moon Rockers Tour
We grabbed the chance to take a tour of the Dominican Republic on the Moon Rockers Tour. The tour sees you on-board buggies where you don a helmet and set off on a somewhat bumpy adventure to soak up the sights. The tour took us off road through the jungle until we reached a secluded beach. Mid way through the adventure, we tasted fresh coconut to refresh our senses before we set off to discover more. We were buzzing.
Rocking Out the Fenders
Our top tip for your time at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana would be to hire one of their Fender guitars to take back to your room to rock out. This is an experience of its own. The Fenders guitars are delivered right to your door and collected again later on, complete with full instructions for the less experienced guitar player. We had an epic time taking the lead role in our own Blue Bay band. Bayley joined in too as we rocked out and put our musical skills to the test. Don’t worry, they come with a pair of headphones too!
Hard Rock Golf
A trip to Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana wouldn’t be complete without a peek at the golf course. Getting to the golf course couldn’t be easier with a buggy straight from the hotel. Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana hosts an 18 hole course which is PGA standard. It’s great for the experienced golfing Holidaymakers and those just giving it a go. The grass is given special TLC thus it stays lush and green so Holidaymakers always experience a top quality surface for their round.
Golfers are given a golf cart for their game which are all fitted with their own GPS. A big win for checking the distance between holes for a little intel into how hard to whack your ball across the course. What’s more, the carts also play music which is great for those golfers who find a few beats help to keep their cool.
