Secrets Cap Cana Resort & Spa destination wedding specialists at 10kWedding.
Secrets Cap Cana sits inside the gated community of Cap Cana on the east coast of the Dominican Republic — 20 minutes from Punta Cana International Airport, on one of the finest stretches of beach in the Caribbean. Juanillo Beach delivers sugar-white sand, palm trees strung with hammocks, and calm, turquoise water that stays swimmable year-round. The resort’s setting within Cap Cana puts guests within range of a protected harbor marina, a world-class fishery, and the Punta Espada golf course — a Jack Nicklaus Signature Design course ranked among the best in the Caribbean. The gated community itself functions as a private enclave, which creates a level of quiet that most resort destinations don’t offer.
A Secrets Cap Cana Resort & Spa destination wedding scales from intimate to large. Seven venues cover every configuration: a beach ceremony for 350 at Juanillo, a Garden Terrace for 200, a Pool Terrace for 100, and the Ballroom for receptions of up to 350 indoors. The Gazebo handles ceremonies of up to 80 with the Caribbean as the backdrop. All 457 suites include furnished balconies with soaking tubs, marble bathrooms, and daily refreshed minibars. Eight dining options — seven of them à la carte — mean your guests have real variety across a full week without needing to repeat a restaurant.
10kWedding handles the room block, builds your guests a dedicated booking site, and stays in direct contact with the resort through planning and travel week. There is no fee to couples — the resort covers our service.

Secrets Cap Cana sits inside the gated community of Cap Cana, 20 minutes from Punta Cana International Airport along the east coast of the Dominican Republic. The transfer is one of the shortest available from a major international gateway to a luxury resort in the Caribbean — most guests are checked in within an hour of landing. PUJ receives direct flights from major North American and European hubs year-round, with reliable connections from the northeast, southeast, and Midwest US markets that make group arrivals straightforward to coordinate.
Cap Cana itself is a private destination within the destination. Beyond Juanillo Beach, the community includes a protected harbor marina, a world-class deep-sea fishery, an equestrian center with polo fields, a natural eco-park, and the Punta Espada golf course. Guests who want to stay on property for the full week have enough — 457 suites, eight restaurants, a full spa, and a nightly theater program. Guests who want to explore have Santo Domingo two and a half hours west, Saona Island reachable by catamaran, and Altos de Chavón close enough for an afternoon trip.
The shortest airport transfer of any AAA Five Diamond resort in the Dominican Republic — direct flights from major US hubs arrive daily.
Jack Nicklaus Signature Design course ranked #1 in the Caribbean and Mexico by GolfWeek. Eight holes play directly along the sea.
A protected harbor marina with deep-sea fishing, catamaran excursions, and one of the most active sport fisheries in the Atlantic.
A meticulously built recreation of a 16th-century Mediterranean village on a cliff above the Río Chavón — a natural half-day trip for groups looking for something distinctive.
A full-day catamaran excursion to one of the Dominican Republic’s most photographed islands — turquoise water, limestone cliffs, and resident dolphins.
The oldest city in the New World — colonial architecture, cobblestone streets, the first cathedral in the Americas, and a dining scene that rewards the drive.
The gated community setting is one of Cap Cana’s most practical assets for a wedding group. Guests arrive through a single entry point, the property is self-contained, and the level of security and privacy is consistent throughout the week. There are no uninvited day visitors on the beach, no public beach access, and no competing crowds. For a group of 50 to 150 people gathered around a wedding, that matters more than most couples anticipate when they’re planning.
Juanillo Beach is consistently rated among the finest beaches in the Dominican Republic — wide, calm, and lined with palms. The combination of a world-class beach, a 20-minute airport transfer, a Jack Nicklaus golf course five minutes away, and eight dining options on property gives guests an itinerary that fills a week without anyone needing to work hard to plan it. Guests who want to stay on the beach stay on the beach. Guests who want to fish, golf, or take a day trip to Altos de Chavón have a full set of options within reach.
For the couple, the AAA Five Diamond designation and the Preferred Club bungalow suites — Caribbean casita-style buildings with private terraces and swim-out access — create a genuinely distinct experience that holds up across a full honeymoon week.
No wristbands. No gratuities required. Everything your Secrets Cap Cana destination wedding guests need for an exceptional week — including 5 bars, 8 dining options, a world-class spa with mangrove views, and the best beach in Cap Cana steps away.
One of the finest stretches of beach on the east coast of the Dominican Republic — wide sugar-white sand, calm turquoise water, palm trees strung with hammocks, and no public access. Guests have it entirely to themselves. Preferred Club guests have a dedicated beach section with concierge and bar service.
Seven à la carte restaurants — Bordeaux (French), El Patio (Mexican), Himitsu (Pan-Asian and Teppanyaki), Oceana (seafood), Portofino (Italian), Seaside Grill (poolside à la carte), and Barefoot Grill (casual beach lunch) — plus the Market Café international buffet. No reservations required, no additional cost.
Barracuda beach bar, Manatees swim-up bar, Rendezvous lobby bar open until midnight, Showtime theatre bar, and Sugar Reef pool bar. Top-shelf spirits at all of them throughout the day and night — no additional charge, no wristbands.
An expansive free-form infinity pool with two outdoor hot tubs, beach and pool wait service, and direct access to the beach. Preferred Club guests have exclusive access to a private Preferred Club pool with dedicated concierge service and bar.
A full hydrotherapy circuit — dynamic pool, iced plunge pool, hot tub, sauna, steam room, and rustic showers — set against views of the tropical mangroves. Massage rooms for couples with hydrotherapy tubs, private single treatment rooms, and a full beauty salon with bridal services.
The Jack Nicklaus Signature Design course at Punta Espada is five minutes from the resort and ranked #1 in the Caribbean and Mexico by GolfWeek. Eight holes play along and over the Caribbean Sea. Additional courses available nearby including Punta Blanca and Cocotal Golf & Country Club.
A massive air-conditioned indoor theatre with live shows and nightly entertainment, themed outdoor evenings by the pool and beach, a weekly cocktail reception with the executive team, and the Desires Music Lounge for late nights. Enough programming to fill a full week without repeating anything.
Non-motorized water sports, sailing, windsurfing, kayaking, catamaran rides, water aerobics, and an introductory scuba lesson in the pool — all complimentary. Deep-sea fishing and full-day catamaran excursions to Saona Island available through the concierge with advance booking.
