Good Rate :: All-inclusive Allegro Punta Cana for $158

Where: Cabeza de Toro, Higuey, Dominican Republic

[Ed. Note: Welcome to our Good Rate/Bad Rate feature where we look at hotel prices in the same city and decide which is better worth your hard-earned benjamins. The rate here was valid on January 9, 2007 and is subject to change.]

Fresh off a renovation, the Allegro Resort in Punta Cana is offering a fantastic deal (through BookIt.com) at only $79 per person all-inclusive through the end of January.

This is your usual vacation factory experience, complete with 540 rooms and a chirpy activities director shouting in a mic by the pool. But hey, at this rate, it's hard to go wrong if you're looking for a beach getaway.

If you've been to a typical all-inclusive resort anywhere in the world, you know the scene: free-flowing cocktails from five bars, lots of activity diversions, and a choice of four restaurants and a snack stand. A big plus here is that the pool and beach bars stay open late instead of them being shut down at sunset. The liquor will be far from top shelf, but at least the rum should be good.

The new rooms depart from the usual tropical floral theme and actually display a little style. They have the basic resort hotel amenities, including a safe, hair dryer, cable TV, and furnished balcony.

You can't book this rate through the buggy hotel site. Instead you need to follow this link to BookIt.com.
