You're choosing between two distinct properties: beachfront Puerto Plata on the north coast or Juan Dolio near Santo Domingo on the south shore. With departures running from March through June 2026, you have flexibility to find dates that work for your schedule while staying at 4 and 4.5-star properties that deliver consistent quality at prices well below what you'd pay for comparable Punta Cana resorts.
Why These Emotions by Hodelpa Packages Stand Out
Most travelers default to Punta Cana when booking Dominican Republic vacations, which means overcrowded beaches, inflated pricing, and resorts packed with other Canadians. These Emotions by Hodelpa packages take you to Puerto Plata and Juan Dolio instead—two destinations that offer authentic Dominican experiences, less-crowded beaches, and better value for your money. You're getting legitimate 4 and 4.5-star all-inclusive properties for under $1,400 per person on most dates, which is remarkable when you factor in flights, transfers, and baggage.
Emotions by Hodelpa is a Dominican-owned resort brand that focuses on delivering quality all-inclusive experiences without the mega-resort chaos. These aren't 800-room properties where you're fighting for pool chairs or waiting 45 minutes for dinner reservations. They're mid-sized resorts (Puerto Plata has 526 rooms, Juan Dolio is more intimate) with attentive service, multiple dining options, and the kind of atmosphere where staff actually remember your name by day three.
The pricing structure is equally smart. Six-night packages start at $1,349, while seven-night stays range from $1,709 to $1,769—giving you options based on whether you want a shorter getaway or a full week. Everything includes your baggage allowance, which eliminates the $70-100 per person fees that destroy budget airline deals. You know your total cost upfront, not after getting hit with surprise charges at checkout.

Why Book Through Boarding Pass Travel
We help you choose the right location for your trip. Puerto Plata and Juan Dolio offer completely different vibes—Puerto Plata has dramatic north coast scenery, access to historical sites like the Amber Museum and cable car, and cooler ocean waters. Juan Dolio sits on the calmer south shore with warmer swimming conditions and proximity to Santo Domingo if you want to explore the capital. Most people have never heard of either destination, so we walk you through which location actually matches what you want from your Dominican vacation.
We manage the package details that cause problems. Juan Dolio is about 45 minutes from Santo Domingo airport, while Puerto Plata has its own airport with different flight logistics. Understanding which property has better transfer arrangements, how dining reservations work at each resort, and what nearby attractions are worth your time saves you from discovering these things the hard way. We make sure you know what to expect before you land, not after you've already checked in.
We're your advocate when travel doesn't go perfectly. Flight delays, room assignment issues, questions about excursions—these things happen, especially at properties that aren't massive international chains with 24/7 call centers. When you book through us, you have someone who knows your itinerary and can actually solve problems. You're not stuck trying to communicate with resort staff in broken Spanish or navigating Air Transat's phone system while you're supposed to be on vacation.
You get protection that actually matters. We're TICO-registered, which means your booking is protected under Ontario's travel industry safeguards. If something goes wrong with Transat or the resort, you have recourse through the compensation fund. We'll also walk you through travel insurance that makes sense for Dominican Republic travel—medical coverage, trip interruption protection, and the specific things that matter when you're leaving Canada.
