Luxury holidays in Playa Grande

When to go

Playa Grande’s climate is mostly tropical. To take advantage of the beaches, visit between December and April to avoid the rainy season, which could put a dampener on sunbathing.

Getting there

• Planes

  Playa Grande’s closest airport is Puerto Plata Gregorio Luperón International, which is just over a 30-minute drive away. As there are no direct flights from the UK, fly with British Airways for the comfiest stopovers in American cities like New York and Miami.

• Automobiles

  Hire a car from Avis at the airport and drive yourself to Playa Grande via Route 5. Getting a car is especially useful if you plan to explore some of the other beaches in the area.
