2025
Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, January 15 – 20, 2025
Just when winter is starting to feel never-ending, we’re offering you a 6-day sunny beach vacay in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. Blue skies, warm sand, sparkling pools, and sunshine will help break up the dreary winter, while the knitting and special classes will guarantee that you have fun in the sun!
This is an all-inclusive resort–relaxing. Please click on the link and read all about it. Golf, tennis, and pickleball (please play with me) are included, too!
Susan, the owner of Wild Onion Productions, and I have been working on this dreamy trip for a while now, and we cant wait to enjoy it with you. Learn all about it here:
