Ocean El Faro buzzes with an array of fun-filled activities – but adults can still find their own slice of Dominican Republic paradise at the resort. Located in the tranquil Uvero Alto just north of Punta Cana, the resort has a front-row seat to the region’s magnificent beaches, providing a picturesque setting for adult-only relaxation or romantic getaways.
Ocean El Faro has three room categories, each designed to cater to unique visitor needs, budgets and preferences:
- Daisy: Geared towards families, this category ensures both children and adults have a comfortable stay.
- El Beso: El Beso Adults Only at Ocean El Faro is ideal for couples or individuals seeking an escape strictly for adults – no kids allowed.
- Privilege: This suite offers a luxury experience, with high-end amenities and exclusive services aimed at guests looking for indulgence and superior comfort.
Bask in El Beso
Within the Ocean El Faro complex is El Beso, a sort of resort-within-a-resort concept with suites and spaces that are exclusive to guests aged 18 and over. In this exclusive retreat, “adults-only” means spirited freedom and sophistication, whether that involves lounging by a sparkling pool, refined dining, or romantic cocktails.
“When we say it’s an adults-only section, it doesn’t mean it’s something boring – it’s just for people who are looking to stay in the Caribbean, have fun, and stay away from kids. We have a lot of young people in the adults-only category who are looking to have a party or to have something more intimate or exclusive for adults,” says Ismael Bravo, Business Development Manager USA/Canada, Ocean by H10 Hotels.
All El Beso suites are equipped with a roomy terrace and living area and a work area with a desk. The Rooftop Junior Suites features added amenities like a whirlpool tub on a spacious rooftop terrace and Swim-Up Junior Suites have pool access direct from the suite.
El Beso guests also have access to exclusive areas and restaurants, with key amenities including:
- 2 outdoor swimming pools
- 1 outdoor jacuzzi
- A snack and beach bar
- Exclusive entertainment
- Blue Moon: Romantic à la carte restaurant with signature cuisine.
- Pez Dama: Beachside restaurant serving a buffet lunch during the day and an à la carte menu at night.
With the adults-only El Beso category, Ocean El Faro caters to the unique dynamics of multigenerational groups, weddings, and group vacations, allowing guests the flexibility to combine adults-only experiences with inclusive group and family-friendly activities.
“We have a lot of weddings, so when you have a wedding group where some of them are bringing kids, you can put part of the group in the adults-only Beso category and the families in the Daisy category. And at the end of the day, the wedding group will still be on the same property,” says Bravo.
Kick Back in Privilege Style
The family-friendly Privilege room category delivers the highest level of luxury and exclusivity, with dedicated spaces, upscale amenities, and personalized services like private check-in and check-out, early check-in and late check-out (subject to availability), unpacking service in the room, shoe cleaning, laundry collection and ironing, and others.
With just under 300 rooms in the Privilege category, Ocean El Faro’s aim is to ensure each stay is distinctive and exclusive.
“The Privilege versus the standard category has great value-add and extra benefits that are included,” says Bravo. “We offer upgraded rooms and services different from the standard category because we know that guests are paying a little more, and that’s why they have extra benefits. These clients expect to get exclusive service and exclusive treatment.”
Privilege rooms stand out for their location, sophistication, large private terraces, and wonderful views. Special services and amenities include:
- Butler and night-time turn down service
- A complimentary bottle of wine and other welcome gifts
- A Nespresso machine in the room
- Special bedding and pillow menu
- Exclusive bathroom amenities
- Other exclusive perks
Privilege guests also get access to the Privilege Lounge, an ocean view, air-conditioned lounge where they can enjoy top liquor brands, a selection of wines, coffee and tea menu, as well as hors d’oeuvres and snacks.
The lounge houses an à la carte restaurant featuring international cuisine for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Additionally, Privilege guests get preferential table booking in all à la carte restaurants.
A private sun lounger area alongside the pool and an exclusive beach zone with luxurious Balinese beds further sets the Privilege category apart, as well as free access to the hydrotherapy circuit at the Despacio Spa Centre and a ten per cent discount on spa services.
Even the youngest Privilege guests receive their own special perks, like a Daisy welcome kit on arrival, drinks and special meals in the Privilege Lounge, and kid-sized bathrobes.
A Privileged Day Trip to Ocean Blue & Sand
Guests reserved in Privilege room categories can enjoy an evening outing to visit, dine, and experience the nearby Ocean Blue & Sand Golf & Beach Resort. Their night out includes dining at the resort’s à la carte restaurants, drinks, and entertainment. (Note: The cost of transportation is not included and must be paid by the guest.)
