Common Questions About Buying in Punta Cana
Condos in the broader Punta Cana area start around $90,000 for studio or one-bedroom pre-construction units. Two-bedroom condos in gated communities average $150,000 to $300,000. Luxury condos in exclusive communities like Puntacana Village or with ocean views range from $400,000 to over $1 million. Properties in CONFOTUR-approved developments save buyers the 3% transfer tax and annual property tax for up to 15 years.
Short-term rental condos in Punta Cana typically generate gross yields of 6% to 12% annually, depending on location, management quality, and seasonality. Properties near beaches and in walkable areas like Los Corales perform best. Average occupancy rates in the region hover between 70% and 85% annually, well above global averages. Long-term rentals offer lower yields (6% to 7%) but with more consistent income and lower operating costs.
Both options have advantages. Pre-construction condos are typically 15% to 25% cheaper than completed units, offer payment plans spread over 12 to 24 months, and almost always include CONFOTUR tax benefits. Resale condos are move-in ready with established rental histories, letting you verify actual income before buying. The choice depends on whether you prioritize savings and new finishes (pre-construction) or immediate income and certainty (resale).
Punta Cana's top residential areas include Puntacana Village (the original master-planned community with resort amenities and beach access), Tortuga Bay (ultra-luxury beachfront estates designed by Oscar de la Renta), and the communities along Playa Serena with direct Caribbean Sea frontage. For more affordable options, nearby Bavaro offers a wider selection of condos and villas. Your choice depends on whether you prioritize exclusivity, beach access, or investment returns.
Punta Cana is one of the Caribbean's strongest real estate investment markets. Tourism continues to grow — the region welcomed a record 5.7 million airline passengers in 2025 — driving consistent rental demand. Property values have appreciated at approximately 8% to 10% annually over the past five years. Most new developments qualify for CONFOTUR tax exemptions, reducing closing costs and annual property taxes for up to 15 years.
Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) is located within the broader Punta Cana area itself, making it one of the most accessible resort destinations in the Caribbean. Most residential communities are within a 10 to 25 minute drive from the terminal. PUJ receives direct flights from over 100 cities worldwide, including major hubs in the US, Canada, UK, and Germany.
Punta Cana is widely considered the safest area in the Dominican Republic. The government maintains a dedicated tourist police force (CESTUR) and the region's economy depends heavily on tourism, so security is taken seriously. Most expat families live in gated communities with 24/7 security, controlled access, and international schools nearby. For a broader perspective, see our Dominican Republic safety guide.
Punta Cana's cost of living is 20% to 30% higher than non-tourist areas of the DR but still significantly lower than the US or Canada. Monthly rent in gated communities ranges from $800 to $1,500 for a furnished apartment. Groceries, dining, and healthcare are substantially cheaper than North America. Most expats report a comfortable lifestyle on $2,000 to $3,000 per month, though luxury living in communities like Puntacana Village will cost more.
