From The Bahamas to Punta Cana, Hotels Where You Can Cool Down This Summer

The Caribbean is even cooler in the summer. It’s not just the freedom of smaller crowds, or that little bit of extra space on the sand. It’s the breezy comfort of the trade winds, of summer nights on the beach. 

As we’ve said before, we truly love the Caribbean in the summer, and while many travelers may decide to spend their Junes, Julys and Augusts in more northern climes, we think they’re mistaken. Summer is one of the best times of the year in the Caribbean. 

So pull out your schedule, find the right week or two and plan your next vacation at one of these lovely beach hotels for the perfect Caribbean summer getaway. 

Bahamas Punta Cana Hotels on cable beach
The new Goldwynn resort just debuted on Cable Beach in Nassau.

Goldwynn Resort and Residences, The Bahamas The most exciting new hotel in Nassau this decade is the first-ever residential resort on Cable Beach, itself one of the best stretches of sand in The Bahamas. Innovative design, an impressive food and beverage offering (we love Bar Paul) and excellent service make for a new destination resort on what Goldwynn calls the “Riviera Bahama.”
