My husband and I are in our late 50's. We will be vacationing in the DR over Easter Vaca. We have been to PC before, several years ago and just loved the beaches, decided it was time to return. (The last 5 yrs we have stayed at the Barcelo complex in RM Mexico) But I'm so lost on which resort to choose.
We would like - nice beach for sunning and swimming; palm trees on beach look great!; premium drinks are a plus but not required; love the feel of open air restaurants/buffets; beach bars are appealing; a mix of people-couples-only can bore us a bit; some liveliness at night - nice bars to visit and meet others, we already know what the shows are like and we like to visit them but usually end up watching from afar at a show bar; snorkling also a plus but I don't think there's much right from the resorts with the calmer waters; luxury not required but friendliness is.
Are we asking too much? Any advice will be welcome. Thanks!
