Dreams Flora Resort and Spa: Great Resort, average food
Resort is very nice, clean and well laid out. Definitely caters to kids , would not stay there if no kids. Food is very average, unless you like junk food and buffets (slightly above average). Staff was excellent and rooms were a nice size with a balcony

Dreams Onyx Resort and Spa: Family Friendly Resort!!
The vacation was absolutely amazing!!! The resort is so perfectly laid out and it took us half a day to figure it all out! It took us 7 min to walk from one end to the next…As non-preferred guests I was starting to worry if I made a wrong call, but we were treated like royalty!!! Constant calls from concierge making sure we have everything, how is the room (small issue with the A/C and was fixed within 10 min of calling!!) the swim out room was perfect and so worth it. All the restaurants has [... read more]excellent food but the steakhouse and the Asian Teppanyaki table were the BEST!! The buffets were good basically the same for breakfast and lunch but there was a change up almost every night for dinner that we attended. All the extra little food bars (burger bar, taco trucks, ice cream parlour, cafe) were amazing for late night snacks or early mornings. All the bars had exceptional service and they went out of their way to get to know us and the kids!!
The shows at night were all great and most were interactive. Even with our flight delay, the staff made sure that we were comfortable, well fed, and enjoyed another full day till we caught our shuttle at 10:30 Friday night!

Dreams Bahia Mita Surf and Spa: A Surprise Vacation
We decided to book our vacation at Dreams Bahia Mita . We had previously booked on three different occasions at Dreams Huatulco and the number of rooms/guests was comfortable for us making the atmosphere pleasant . When we arrived we were very surprised to find that the resort was combined with Secrets and of course had a much larger number of guests and different atmosphere. We decided to change up to Secrets hoping to enjoy a calmer atmosphere. Unfortunately, the hotel did not seem to correc[... read more]tly monitor guests who were Secrets v Dreams guests which was a problem in some cases. The cleanliness of this hotel is outstanding, staff are wonderful as always and the Secrets restaurants were amazing. We knew that the beach area was not great and this is so true. It would be wonderful if more work was done on this area. We enjoyed ourselves except Hyatt needs to do a better job of identifying Dreams and Secret guests in their designated areas. Future guests need to be aware of size of property and the fact that Dreams and Secret guests are joined on same property.

Dreams Bahia Mita Surf and Spa: Thoughts on Secrets Punta Mita
The grounds of the property were lovely. Great dining options and the staff were very friendly and helpful.
Unfortunately, we were not made aware that Dreams and Secrets were physically attached, so we were disappointed to discover that a lot of the pools and restaurants had many families with children using them even though we thought we were in an adults only resort.
The beach was also a big disappointment. I would not recommend this as an adult only resort.

Dreams Cap Cana Resort and Spa: Excellent Resort
We decided to go on a 4 day three night adventure sponutanuously and ended up choosing the Dreams Cap Cana. Beautiful resort top to bottom . We stayed in one of there swim up pools from our room. Absolutely loved dipping in the morning to start the day. Hotel is gorgeous, rooms beyond expectation. Front desk service was superb. Very professional and polite. The only downside is i found the bar service waitress/waiters did not come around enough
not sure if they did not have enough staf[... read more]f and were very slow. They do need to improve that part of their service. Food was excellent. Their beach is not the best as it is a little rocky but I think they are working on that. Beyond the Dreams resort the beach and sand was great, white soft sand and beach was beautiful. I would give this resort definitely give this place a 4 plus and would recommend it.

Dreams Flora Resort and Spa: Wonderful week at Dreams Flora
Honestly this was a dream first family vacation with two kids (5 and 1years old). We opted for the preferred swim up room as our littlest still naps and it was awesome. Allowed us to not miss out on any fun while still being right there if she woke or needed us. I loved the shallow raised sections in the swim up areas so the littles could splash and play. The rooms were modern and very clean. Pools and beach were amazing and pristine. There was never not a chair to be had at either beach or pool[... read more] which was a nice change. Loved the small size of the resort and being able to get to know the friendly staff. Restaurants and buffet were great and no reservations needed was a pleasant surprise. The kids club and resort activities were a hit for all ages. Not sure who had more fun at the water park or the foam party (kids or adults) haha. My only feedback would be that a lot of the paths weren’t stroller friendly and that it would be helpful to put benches in the hospitality rooms. I would give this resort a 9/10 for those travelling as a family and we will likely return.

Dreams Dominicus La Romana: An excellent resort!
Our group of 2 families (4 adults and 3 youth) had a wonderful stay here for 9 days in mid-March.
I have a lot of positive things to say about this resort, beginning with the Entertainment Staff. A big reason why we enjoyed this resort was Jerry. Jerry is an absolute delight and one of the highlights of our stay. He involved my 12- and 15-year-old boys in the games and activities throughout our entire stay. Always friendly and welcoming, smiling, dancing and entertaining! He even got my 15-yea[... read more]r-old son to dance! In addition to Jerry, other entertainers - Champion, Chicken Boy, El Baby added to the fun. Champion’s auction at the beach was another highlight!
The staff all around was great – from housekeeping to pool/lobby bar, dining and towel staff. A shoutout to Marcelo at the pool bar for his positive and fun energy!
Room was one of the nicest we have had at a resort, spacious and clean. Towel service was also excellent. No need for towel cards and the towels were always fresh and clean.
A La Carte restaurants were excellent – no reservations was a huge bonus, and we never waited more than a few minutes for a table.
Coco Café was great to have on resort – my husband and I went here for our morning coffees every day. Barefoot Grille at the beach was also great – pizzas were excellent for a midday snack.
The shows were entertaining – especially the Water and Circus shows.
Beach is beautiful – turquoise water and white sand. While not a challenge to get chairs at the beach, lack of shade was a bit of an issue. One of my only complaints is that those who pay for Preferred Club get better access to shade.
My only other complaint was the lack of activity post-11pm. And that’s saying something for someone who normally goes to sleep at 10pm! Some musical entertainment until midnight would be a nice addition. And while there is a sports bar and disco across from the a la carte restaurants, these were not well-publicized and therefore nobody seemed to go to them. The same holds true for the teen club (which my kids used but they were the only ones there).
All in all, an excellent stay at an excellent resort, thanks to Jerry and the rest of the entertainment staff.

Everything was great except for the beach. It was under construction, but we could go to an adjacent beach and enjoy the turquoise waters there. The food was great as well. The rooms were very good as well.

Dreams Macao Beach Punta Cana: Amazing time!
Our family had a wonderful stay at the Dreams Macao Beach resort. Everything was very well kept and clean. Staff were friendly and helpful! The food at the restaurants were good and we had no problem getting seats at the restaurants either (thought this would be harder since we went during March break). My only wish would be that a few restaurants opened earlier as we were travelling with young kids who have early bedtimes. The entertainment for the kids after dinner was a lot of fun! Overall, w[... read more]here our room was located was fairly quiet during the night and had minimum disruptions. We would definitely recommended to families with young children!

Dreams Sands Cancun Resort and Spa: Good times, terrible food
The hotel itself is good and the rooms are really nice. We had a great time in the plunge pool when we needed some quiet time. But the food in the resort was so bad. Even if they tried a little, it would be decent. It's like they just don't care at all. They know we have no other choice. The quality anf the taste is so bad. Each restaurant is worse than the other. We even picked this one coz it's supposed to be decent with the food. But no, it was terrible.

Dreams Jade Resort and Spa: Decent but will not return
We stayed 7 days Feb 27-March 6th.
As soon as we all got to the resort we went to the bar to try and find a table then when we finally did.. we had to clean and wipe down the table then waited for service and waited. Which did not come. We squeezed up at the bar and got some cocktails. Sadly the hard alcohol at the resort is aweful. Beer and basic teqiilla were fine and the wine . The inside lobby bar was the best and Saul who worked it was the best. Totally cares for his Craft. The pool bar[... read more] was fine and service was available from your pool chair. The pool cafe was delicious and everything made to order. The fries were yummy and the quesadilla were the best.
Pool chairs were hard to come by and got taken up by 9am. Towels that were placed to hold were removed by staff after about 35 min which is good thing otherwise no one would have a good place to lay. The pools are average and we lost the best pool for a day as someone pooped in the pool. The beach was small and tons of the seaweed floating in and out of the water. Lots of rocks so bring water shoes.
Not enough beach chairs for sure.
Our first room overlooked a mug pile and stunk of sewage so the changed our room with a better view but the balcony had a high cement wall so we could not enjoy it.
Rooms were average. Nice shower. The AC was poor and motion operated so when you left and came back after hours in the beating sun the room temp was 24-25 and took way to long to go down to 21.5 which was the lowest it would go.
Buffet breaky was good but long lineups to get in.
Good service in most of the restaurants. We loved Willain in the Italian restaurant. He went over and above and excellent at his job.
My sister only had hot hot water for one day then the last day they had no water at all. They were also doing maintenance work below our room at 315am! Loud banging as they were removing floor tile. Basic service was fine. Food was fine. Alcohol was Meh. Had floral taste in the gin and vodka so make sure you go ask for a specific brand. Great latte snack bar open 24 hrs. Get the latter with Baileys. yummy. iced or hot.
All in all we all agree we would not return to this resort. However if you have nothing to compare it to you will be fine. Our group of 6 have been to mexico many times and had experienced better resorts.

Hyatt Vivid Cancun: Very nice ??
we travelled as a family with our kids and grandkids, and really enjoyed this resort. The food was good in most cases and very good in some cases. The pool was absolutely amazing and the golf course also was great. Round of golf is 125 US after 1 PM and included range balls and water. We also rented clubs and they had a variety on hand for us so it was no issue and they were good quality. Now for the beach, the beach is small, but it was still very nice and had great hammock to lay in and a litt[... read more]le beach bar as well. Seating was limited unless you had preferred club which we did not, but we never missed having that. They seem to do something special every night and the entertainment was always wonderful as well. Rooms were very nice and every room had a fantastic view . If I had only one complaint it was that the kids section was between two hotels so there was almost no sun there and it was very cool and windy making it unuseable for much of the day. That was too bad, especially if you want kids to have that experience… It wasn’t too much of a bother for us because swimming in the pool and the beach worked just as well.

Dreams Sands Cancun Resort and Spa: Prefect beach ,amazing staff
The beach was the highlight of the hotel , and people gravitate to the ocean . The soft white sand is prefect for walking and wading into the ocean for a float in the calm waters.
The room we stayed in was a little dated but quite comfortable, the tub is very deep and caution needed to be used getting in and out ( not good for anyone with disabilities) I have heard the renovated rooms have walk in showers. The view from our room made up for everything…the turquoise ocean was breathtaking,espec[... read more]ially at sunset .
The food was always plentiful and something for everyone, lots of Mexican flavour for those that like to try something new, but also lots of Americana choices .
The staff were so very friendly , professional and helpful ,at every restaurant they inquire about allergies , show you to the table , place the napkin on your lap and cater to your needs…even at the buffet. ( bring lots of tips ,they deserve it. )
The concierge staff were so very helpful and during our stay we encountered a couple of medical issues and they were so very helpful arranging appointments and following up to ensure we were taken care of.
We would highly recommend this hotel when you are at the beach you forget you are right on the hotel strip and steps away from shopping when you walk out the front entrance.
They do have a VIP program they try and get you to buy into ( timeshare program ) however that’s the norm in Mexico and we are used to avoiding those.
We are used to staying at much larger hotels but we were not disappointed with the Dreams Sands Cancun .

Dreams Onyx Resort and Spa: Wonderful Vacation
The beach is a well kept long stretch that has both calm and rougher water areas so you can pick which one you like better. The buffet was average with alot of choices, and the a la cart restaurants were quite good. Staff was very helpful, and our butler Alejandro was beyond amazing. The only one area that could have been better was our room (block 5). It was dated, and the bathroom badly needed an upgrade. Getting the sliding door to open was very difficult and they weren't able to repair it (n[... read more]eeds to be replaced). That said, we spent very little time in our room so it wasn't a deal breaker for us. We actually would have wanted to stay longer ..
