“Being among the highest percentage of destinations worldwide means it has had such a memorable impact on its visitors that many of them took the time to connect and leave a rave review about their experience.” Carol Johnson, Tripadvisor.
During the twenty-fourth edition of the Dominican Annual Tourism Exchange (DATE 2024), which culminated last Friday at the Paradisus Palma Real hotel in Punta Cana, the Dominican Republic was recognized by Tripadvisor in the Travelers' Choice® Awards Best of the Best for 2024, as the most popular honeymoon destination in the world and the most popular in the Caribbean.
David Collado, Minister of Tourism, and David Llibre, President of the National Association of Hotels and Tourism of the Dominican Republic (Asonahores), received the distinction from representatives of Tripadvisor, whose recognition is given to the destinations that receive the highest number of excellent comments from the TripAdvisor community.
“We are honored to be included in this Travelers' Choice ranking, one of the most recognized and coveted awards in the travel industry, which is very valuable for the Dominican Republic's tourism sector, and it represents an impetus to continue offering an innovative tourism offering,” Collado commented.

As the world's largest travel guidance platform, Tripadvisor holds unparalleled authority among travelers and diners. This award is based on genuine feedback from anyone in the community who has visited and left an authentic, first-hand review on TripAdvisor over a 12-month period, making it a valuable and trusted designation of traveler favorites.
Collado thanked the more than 10 million visitors who in 2023 have rated the country through the TripAdvisor website and who have chosen it as their favorite destination this year.
“Congratulations to the Dominican Republic for its recognition in the 2024 TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards Best of the Best,” said Carol Johnson of TripAdvisor. “Being among the highest percentage of destinations worldwide means it has had such a memorable impact on its visitors that many of them took the time to connect and leave a rave review about their experience,” she said.
