Why We’ll Always Be Obsessed with Kukua Beach Club in Punta Cana
Let’s talk about one of our all-time favorite venues in Punta Cana: Kukua Beach Club.
📍Where it's located:
Kukua is tucked along the beautiful Bavaro Beach strip, one of the most iconic stretches of coastline in Punta Cana. But this part of the beach? It’s something else entirely. From an aerial view, you can see just how special it is. The water is that perfect Caribbean turquoise, the sand is bright white and soft, and best of all, it’s clean. No sargassum problems here. And you know those party boats you see crowding the beaches in Punta Cana? Not here. Kukua’s beach is calm, private, and absolutely breathtaking.
💍The Venue Itself:
Kukua is a completely private beach club. There are no standard wedding packages, no pre-designed setups, no cookie-cutter options. You create your wedding from scratch, down to the last candle and charger plate. Everything is custom. You decide what your day looks like.
And the best part? You’re guided every step of the way by your own personal planner, who also happens to be one of my besties in this industry. She’s as real as they come. She won’t sugarcoat anything and she definitely won’t nickel and dime you. She’ll tell you what’s worth it, what’s not, and where your budget will make the biggest impact. It’s rare to find someone who is this direct, this talented, and this trustworthy all at once. There is truly no other venue like Kukua Beach Club.
🍽️The Food and Drinks:
The menu options are outstanding. This isn’t resort buffet food. These are plated meals that your guests will remember. Whether you go with steak, seafood, or a Caribbean fusion menu, everything is fresh and full of flavor. And let’s talk drinks—because even their base bar package is better than most resorts' upgraded selections. Your guests will be sipping actual cocktails, not watered-down versions of them.
💯Our Experience:
We’ve planned and serviced over 100 weddings and group events at Kukua over the years. And we’re not exaggerating when we say this—we have never had a single disappointed client. Not one. Every couple leaves feeling over the moon, and it’s because Kukua knows how to deliver. The team, the service, the setting—it all works together effortlessly.
✨The Design Fairy Godmother:
Meet Mayte, Kukua’s onsite decorator. She’s a genius with florals, draping, lighting, you name it. If you can dream it, she can design it. And somehow, she always makes it look even better than what you had in mind. She’s one of those rare talents who brings beauty and calm to everything she touches.
