An introduction to Riu Taino

Want to see some of the famous Dominican scenery? Then this is the place for you. Here at the Riu Taino you get all that and much more. Set on a long stretch of white sands that's lapped by crystal clear waters, this place wouldn't look out of place in a Bounty advert. And for peace, quiet and total relaxation, it's pretty hard to beat. But don't get the wrong impression – there's never a dull moment here.

When you're not sunbathing by the pool or lazing on the beach, there are plenty of things to do. If you're into keep-fit, the aerobics and gym will have you dashing for the treadmill. While sports fans can hit the tennis court and bowling green. And if you're feeling adventurous, get stuck into some kayaking, sailing and windsurfing. But if you want to try a bit of everything, check out the hotel's activity programme. You'll find everything from dance classes to Spanish lessons here.

Food-wise, there are four top-notch restaurants offering tastes from around the globe. Delve into Italian, steak house, Asian and Caribbean flavours. As the sun goes down, don't think about calling it a night just yet. You'll find an evening entertainment programme packed with live music, shows and cabaret. And if you fancy dancing the night away, you're only a short walk from the funky bachata beats of Pacha nightclub. So with paradise on tap and plenty to keep you entertained, it's easy to see why Riu Taino tops many a holiday wish list.
