Iberostar Waves Costa Dorada: Second Time Staying At Same Resort

Our first stay in Oct. 2023 was Amazing. Our second stay on April 08, 2024 was 3/4 amazing. We did not get a WELCOME BACK sign on our door. And when I told the front desk they had no idea it was our second stay. Over all we might return the resort is great for entertainment and there is Alot to do on the resort.

Bahia Principe Escape Bouganville: Beautiful hotel

Lovely resort. Beautiful grounds and gardens. Clean pools. Nice rooms. Good food and drink. Friendly staff. Beach was pretty but the swimming was a downer. Murky water with a sludge bottom. For this reason alone I would not return to this particular property however the Bahia Hotels are lovely and I will continue to book Bahai vacations just not in La Romana.

Iberostar Waves Costa Dorada: Wonderful resort

The grounds were impeccable. The resort is an older resort but the rooms were spacious and clean. Had some problems with a few things but the staff was quick to remedy them. There was a great selection of food so no one should go hungry as anyone could find something to eat. The entertainment staff did their best to put on a variety of different shows every evening and the activity staff got many people to join in the festivities .

Serenade Punta Cana Beach and Spa Resort: Beautiful resort

We spent a week at Serenade resort and spa. It is a wonderful resort. The food is top notch, the grounds are beautiful, rooms are great,the pools are great and there are a lot of pools for children and a games room for the older kids.the only downside is the beach, there is a lot of seagrass and there are sandbars throughout so there is no water higher than shoulder level .

Bahia Principe Grand Bavaro: Gorgeous property

Property was gorgeous and clean. Food was good. Not always hot/fresh. Entertainment nightly was decent. Room was nice despite leaks in ceilings. Drinks awesome. Worst part was staff. Rude and Uninterested in serving clients

VH Gran Ventana Beach Resort: Loved this trip

Extended family trip. Did not want to leave and ready to return. Took the premium package - vintage bar was great and the separate beach was wonderful. A la carte restaurants were a chance to try other foods than the buffet - which was amazing and the staff are great. Initially put in a room on the third floor - not great for someone with mobility issues - but changed as quickly as the front desk was able to find an appropriate room. Did miss out on “extras” for a returning guest. Unsur [... read more]e why this was missed.

Hyatt Vivid Punta Cana: Beautiful resort

Room dated particularly shower and sink area but it was clean! Nice terrace pools nice private beach with service was great. Chair hogs a bit frustrarting Loved no tickets for towels. Food good and lots of variety. Club well worth it. Loved the appetizers available for club members who are not big eaters. We used that for some meals. Premium alcohol was bonus. Staff Friendly/helpful Wish entertainment had been earlier. Garbage along the highway on route to hotel was disgusting. Must [... read more] have BOOK IN LOBBY with departure info. Sunwing rep was not in designated spot between 10 - 5 which we were told would be . Resulted in a bit of anx. No issues with any staff at resort. Went out of there way to accommodate Definitely would return Good value for $$ overall very pleased wish there had been ice machines on each floor. Resort staff were excellent. Beach workers worked diligently to rove saragussom. Kudos to them. We had a restful pleasant time at Jewel Palm beach. Champaign from Sunwing rep was a sweet and pleasant surprise Made us feel special.

Sunscape Coco Punta Cana: Fantastic resort

Food great, pools great, buffet fantastic, no complaints w rooms, no a la carte reservations which made it easy to try many of them, beautiful beach, staff excellent...no complaints what so ever. Highly recommend.

Bahia Principe Escape Aquamarine: This resort is amazing.

The Grand Aquamarine is an amazing resort, sorry I only booked for a week, next time it will be for longer. Front desk staff Annabell was absolutely wonderful and saved our vacation. We booked a ground floor room with our travel agent with two beds, we did not get that we were given a room on the second floor with one bed. However, they did provide a extra single with a good mattress. My friend is unable to navigate the stairs and was in great pain by the first full day of our vacation. We  [... read more]met Annabell at the front desk and she checked for a room for us and had it fixed and cleaned and helped us move to the new room and brought us closer to the lobby and the buffet, she was awesome and so helpful and saved our vacation. We also had some dealings with Yudelka at the front desk and she was also very nice and helpful, always cheerful and smiling. Alba who cleaned our room everyday was a beautiful soul and so helpful and friendly, made sure our suite was great everyday and provide great service. Eddie at the lobby bar was always smiling and happy and made us laugh, very attentive and friendly, the staff there was also very good. We tried 3 of the ala carte restaurants and they were good, but a big shout out to the buffet staff that made our meals there the best. Edwin and the staff that worked with him were the greatest and made us laugh and have fun every day. The resort the entertainment every night was great, we met a lot of really nice people and staff there. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Caribe Deluxe Princess: Overall this was a very nice resort.

The grounds of the hotel were beautiful. To get from the lobby area to the rooms and pools you went thru a jungle that was filled with exotic birds, iguanas and turtles. The beach was wonderful, groomed daily every morning. Once we got our room sorted, first one had just been painted smelled of paint and was small, second was facing the back of the hotel, balcony overlooked a brick wall with meshing, finally last room was on second floor overlooking the pool and beach, lovely balcony and very  [... read more]spacious. The restaurants were good, had to book in advance a reservation if you wanted to get it. Buffet was always well stocked and had plenty of choices. Most of the staff were pleasant, there were a few that looked like they really did'nt want to be there! The nightly shows in the outdoor theatre were fun to watch. Lots of variety of drinks at the various bars around the resort!

Bahia Principe Escape Aquamarine: Awesome UPGRADE - to the Bahia Principe Luxury Esmeralda from Bahia Principe Aquamarine

Barcelo Bavaro Palace: Mixed Feelings - Lovely Resort

The grounds are lovely and the waterparks and beach fantastic for kids. It is a very large resort and a trolley is provided to take you to and from the beach and eating areas. We ate mostly in the 2 buffets since fixed a la carte dining times don't gel with toddlers. We have been to the DR annually for 25 years and not sure I would come back to this resort. The main drawback for us for the organization and food selections for the 2 buffet restaurants. Our room locations were great to enable  [... read more]us to walk to wherever we needed - 8654 superior room which was close to the family duplex our daughter/grandkids had. The rooms were a little dated but had everything you would need - maid service was fantastic. 2 of our group played golf and enjoyed the course. Elevators are provided to get to higher floords as needed. The theatre area was lovely with lots of seating. I needed to use the onsite medical clinic ClinicAssist. They are very professional, have any medications you may need and the staff speak English well.

Dreams Flora Resort and Spa: Awesome resort

This is a wonderful resort! The greenery is so beautiful! The staff are so friendly and very accommodating. Food was very good. Loved that it was a short walk from the main pool to the beach. Might need a few more shades areas but we had an amazing time. Would definitely go back again.

Secrets Tides Punta Cana: Incredible Resort

This newest resort is everything you expect on a vacation. The resort is beautiful and so well planned out with structural accommodation. The staff are such beautiful people that make you feel like family. The restaurants are wonderful and the buffet is everything one needs. The gym is excellent and the young man was so welcoming and personal. He made us feel like we were home. And loved the pickle ball courts as so well known in our home town. Shows in the evening were excellent. And too not [... read more]ch service. We definitely loved our stay. Thankyou to all the staff that made us feel like family

Catalonia Bavaro Resort: Wonderful vacation.

We had an amazing vacation. The weather was hot! The food was fantastic. The kids loved the buffet. I was worried after reading reviews about getting sick but we had amazing food and no one got sick! The ala carte restaurants we went to (steakhouse and italian) were very good. The staff is exceptional. Contagious happy personalities that made the stay! Awesome pool. The ocean was warm and area in front of the resort was great, lots of sea grass otherwise. We stayed in privilege, rooms were ok,  [... read more]clean, air conditioning worked, and beds were comfy. Our only issue was that our sunwing transfer didn't come for return to airport and we had to get a taxi and pay which was supposed to be part of our package. Overall a amazing family trip and would recommend resort.

Grand Palladium Select Bavaro: Not very good

The grounds were beautiful and well kept up, entertainment was very good a night. Rooms were clean but dated. The big problem is the service, waited for drink everywhere we went Morning,Day and night. Sometimes we would be finished breakfast before we could get coffee. The staff just seemed to not care. Lastly the pool is no good to hang out in unless you were 6 feet or taller.

Senator Puerto Plata Hotel: An excellent vacation

The only minor issues while we were there were the 3hr wait for our room upon arrival to check in, and the one store had medication to prevent sea sickness before an excursion but couldn’t sell it to us because it was not priced in the computer, and the manager wasn’t answering her phone. Apart from that all of the staff were incredibly helpful especially our concierge Wellington (I’m sorry I’ve probably spelled his name wrong). The resort was extremely clean and the beach was beautiful. The foo [... read more]d and drinks were excellent. I highly recommend the coffee shop, the gelato bar and the sports bar. There was lots of selection on the buffet. The room was quite comfortable, it was cleaned every day, fresh towels and water were always available. It was nice and quiet for sleeping after 10pm. If you want an excellent all round vacation to relax and unwind I would 10/10 recommend it.
