Saona Island was fantastic! Take pesos with you so you can enjoy a massage!!! We got massages on the beach underneath the palm trees. The breeze off the water and the lull of the waves were super relaxing! Lunch was delicious everyone involved in our excursion had a blast! The snorkelling and viewing of starfish was a blast!!! The boat rides to and from the Island were so much fun! Everyone in our group had a super great time!!!

It is a real paradise: brilliant nature, delicious cocktails and local music. Now my wife has lots of sexy photos lying on the palm tree and white sand beach.

Saona island is a charming place with a perfect and virgin nature if I can say this, cause there are too many people who come there. Be aware!!! If you want to make some brilliant photos or selfie and don’t want anybody disturb you, do it while the others are having a meal.

The island of Saona is worth visiting if you want to see a real tropical paradise. Emotions that we had were inexpressible. Of course there are a lot of tourists, but it makes no sense when you are on that incredible island and enjoy the beauty of the turquoise sea, palms and white sand. If you order a pinacolada drink on the island, you will definitely feel like the heroine of the Bounty advert. There you can taste the best Caribbean cocktail!

Wonderful views, beautiful water, delicious lunch, environmental friendly excursion and too many excellent photo shots - that is how I can describe my experience on Saona island.

I think that a boat trip to Saona Island is the most popular excursion for those who have their vacation at Punta Cana and Bavaro resorts, because the Island is situated just 50 km south west of Punta Cana. We enjoyed the speed boat ride that was really a great fun. When we reached the island we were struck by an amazing view: palm trees, pure white sand, surrounded by the Caribbean sea with unbelievably crystal water. It is a real paradise with its breath-taking nature... The only thing that we didn’t like was that there were a lot of people around who also were on the Saona day trip.

Saona is a National Reserve in the Caribbean Sea. Blue Ocean, snow-white sand, sunshine and a virgin beach. You can see starfish and even take pictures with them, just be careful, take photos quickly within a few seconds, because starfish die quickly after a few seconds out of the water. Saona is paradise on earth! I’m in love with the country and its nature!

During our stay in the Dominican Republic, this was one of the first excursions we had booked. After working routine I really needed a completely relaxing holiday. Honestly speaking, Saona turned out to be a paradise island. It was unforgettable! The Caribbean Sea is magic !!! The water is clear, warm and very beautiful! In other words, the sea, the sun, white sand, starfish were just the same things that I needed to feel relaxed. When you are in such places, you understand how beautiful and perfect our world is. What a pity that there are no hotels in Saona, I would definitely come to spend my vacation there if there was any hotel or apartment.
