One-on-One Date: Take Your Love to New Heights
For her first one-on-one date in Punta Cana, Andi invites Nick on a special adventure. The two take a helicopter from Helipoosa and fly along the coast of the Dominican Republic. They take in all the sights as they fly to their destination — the private Saona Island. The island is theirs for the day, and the two enjoy a day of swimming, a picnic, and lots of romantic moments. Andi calls the crystal clear turquoise water the most beautiful ocean she’s ever seen. After their day together, the two visit the Punta Cana Beach Club & Resort in Tortuga Bay for dinner. They eat dinner on the beach with a romantic bonfire set up next to them. Andi and Nick spend the night in the Fantasy Suite at their hotel.
One-on-One Date: Exploring the City
For her second one-on-one date in the Dominican Republic, Andi invites Josh to explore Santo Domingo with her. The two explore the capital city together and enjoy a sugar cane drink. They learn more about the drink called Mamajuana, which is supposed to be an aphrodisiac. Andi and Josh watch traditional merengue dancers in the street and join them for some dancing. Andi also takes Josh to a local Little League baseball game and they join in on the fun. After baseball, they drink coconut water out of fresh coconuts. For the nighttime portion of their date, Andi and Josh have dinner at Casa de Campo and stay overnight for their Fantasy Suite date.
