Excellence Punta Cana: Excellance All the Way!!!!

We just got back from our 7 day vacation and we loved this resort. Beautiful pools and we'll kept grounds not to mention the friendly staff. Looking forward to going back one day. The Excellance Punta Cana is our favorite Adults Only.

Excellence Punta Cana: Best Resort We've Been Too

The food - Amazing, especially the seafood. The restaurants were all solid. Buffet was typical but above average. Pools - The main pool is huge and busy. Try the smaller one for a calmer atmosphere and more private bar. Entertainment - The shows were fantastic and much better than expected. These performers are skilled! Rooms - Getting a little dated, but wonderful big tubs, marble showers and updated fixtures. Beds are comfy with lots of pillow choice. Lots of space. Resort and  [... read more]grounds - Beautifully maintained grounds and lots of space for wandering the resort. The lobby and buildings are unique and well maintained. You are never out doors, yet everything is open air. Bars - All great, and suit every need and every area of the resort. Service - Excellent all around.

Excellence Playa Mujeres: Amazing Time

We have stayed at a few other AI resorts (Sandals Whitehouse, Secrets Silversands, Excellence PC) and have been on a few cruises. This is by far the best resort we have been to overall. The staff was incredible (especially the waitstaff at the pools) and the food ranged from ok to amazing. Chez Isabelle was our favorite restaurant with Basmati a close second. Our only disappointment was The Lobster House for dinner. Service was not as good as other restaurants and food was just ok. Drinks are  [... read more]great, beach and room are amazing and the resort never felt as full as it was. We have never returned to a resort but are considering it with this one.

Excellence Punta Cana: The best in Cayo St Maria

Beautiful grounds kept impeccable by the hardworking gardeners, excellent food and drinks, the beaches are pristine and the service is top notch. This was our 4th time and we plan to return in a few months to see all our dear friends - Danny, Pavel, Niumy, Adonis, Damarys, Osneil, Alberto - if you chose to come here, THERE are the people you wanna meet!

Excellence Punta Cana: Excellent stay at the excellence

The staff are friendly (& work hard so you have a good time), the food is good (lots of variety) & the drinks are strong. Lots to do, there's something for every1! great spa, nice beach, swim up bar (you can make lots of friends there), there's little bars all over the place that are quieter too. If you go to the hut down the beach you can haggle with Ricky and alex who are some of the people running the hut. Theres fun shows to watch in the night and it's usually followed by a band or perf [... read more]ormer. The disco is popular depending on the crowd. The djs will take whatever request you want The Tuscana restaraunt has a buffet and is 1 of the best buffets I've ever had and i have had sone dam good buffet. If you're eating anything, you should eat the seafood because it is top notch. Some of the food styles they don't do so well because it's a completely different culture to them but it's totally forgiven. Chez Isabelle probably had the best food overall. The pizzas at oregano are great and have a lot of cheese! The staff seem to have a good time as well, everyone is friendly and if you ask how they are, they'll say "excellente!" And I know by the end of it I said it too! tip the staff whay you think they deserve, don't bother converting money and if you want to go on an excursion or tour, you can definitely haggle a great price. Talk to the concierge about extra things too. Tip the staff and they'll remember you and sometimes give you a little something extra.

Excellence Punta Cana: Great resort, grey vacation

We just returned from the Excellence resort and this was our first trip to an all inclusive resort. This is a fantastic resort and we will definetly be going back as soon as we can. When we arrived, we had a shuttle ride to the resort with a number of other couples. The Excellence was the last resort for the shuttle so we had a quick view of the entrance to 3 other resorts As we dropped people off. At first I thought all the resorts were very impressive with beautiful grounds and lovely front e [... read more]ntrances, but that changed when we arrived at Excellence. The first noticeable difference was the security. They confirmed who we were before we were even allowed on the property ( none of this happened at the other resorts). The other big difference was in the up keep of the grounds. The grounds, gardens, walkways that we saw just driving in were perfect - not a weed or uncut grass anywhere. Once we were in the resort it was the same quality everywhere - Staff were cleaning and maintaining the grounds all the time. The beach was hand raked every morning around the loungers and the main beach area was machine groomed. Walkways were swept and mopped regularly and the pools cleaned daily. I am an early riser so I saw all the hard work being done by the staff before most people even woke up. We stayed in building 14, 2nd floor with a garden room. We did not upgrade to the Excellence Club and it was not needed in my opinion. The room was at the far end of the resort and was very quiet and the wifi was fine. The room was lovely and was cleaned every day and our fridge was always refilled. Even our special request for extra water and Diet Coke was fulfilled immediately and always maintained. We also had someone show up for turn down service every day. Some reviews complained that rooms weren't cleaned or towels replaced. They do have notes that any towels left in the tub will be replaced and we always left the "clean room" card in the door when we went out. We were not able to go to all of the restaurants but we did not have a bad meal at any of the ones we went to. We went to both the Lobster house and Toscana for breakfast. We also went to Las Olas and Toscana for lunches. The buffet at Toscana was always different with a good mix of choices. For dinner we went to Toscana, Flavor Market, Oregano, Chez Isabelle, and the Grill. The Chateaubriand was fantastic at Chez Isabelle and we loved sampling everything at the Flavor Market. My only advice to anyone going is be open to trying different foods and you will have some great meals. We also used room service a few times and the food was great. Sometimes it took a little while longer than they said it would but these were at peak times (after the shows when everyone goes back to their rooms). We also enjoyed the meal and entertainment outside for the "White" event. My wife and I had a couples massage and hydro jet treatment at Miile Spa. It was a very enjoyable experience in a beautiful facility. We did wait for one of the daily specials because we did find the spa a little pricey. My wife and I also had a couple's massage ay Nancy's off the resort (immediately to the left of the resort). It looks a little rough, but Sandy does not pressure you to buy anything and Maria and Ingra give a great massage on the second floor ($110 for a couple - a lot less than resorts spa). When we were leaving we ran into some people at the airport that arrived at the same time we did. As we were waiting to board the plane we compared our experiences at the different resorts. It was clear that Excellence was a step above all the rest in terms of service and facilities. This was a great trip for my wife and I, and we were sad to leave, but we will definitely be going back to Excellence Thank you Susan for recommending this resort P Please consider the impact on the environment before printing this email or its attachments

Excellence Riviera Cancun: Clean Amazing Resort with Excellent Service

The Grounds are meticulous and the service was great. The restaurants are very good. The rooms are spotless and spacious. The entire property is beautiful and I would definitely recommend it. The resort is very close to the airport which is always a plus.

Everything was very clean, beautiful grounds and wonderful service. The room was stunning and all of the restaurants we tried were delicious. Overall this was a top notch five star resort. Will definitely book again when there is a promotion available.

Excellence Punta Cana: Lives up to its name!

We stayed at this resort for 7 days and each day, we loved it even more. From the beautiful beach, great restaurants, superb entertainment and excellent service all around makes it difficult to rate this any less than excellent. Probably the best resort experience we have had yet!

Excellence Riviera Cancun: Resort was truly "Excellence" !!!

Perfect holiday at an amazing resort. Top marks for cleanliness, service, food and beverages throughout the resort. Even the weather was perfect. Not one complaint about anything. If I had to make a suggestion for an improvement, it would be to increase the shaded areas for seating around the Excellence Club pool. But we spent our days on the beach and there were plenty of lounges in the shade.

Excellence Riviera Cancun: amazing vacation!

our vacation was amazing from the time we got to the airport. we purchased option plus and it was fantastic! check in was amazing at both airports. No line ups just so convenient. I will do that again if not business class. the resort is also one of our favorites. We have been there 4 times and love it ! The staff are amazing and so friendly Amabele and Moises and Joseph in the excellence club pool area are the best! They bend over backward for you! Food at the resort is always amazing. seriousl [... read more]y I cannot complain about a thing. we love this resort and will of course return!

Excellence Punta Cana: Good

This was the first time we go to a Excellence resort and was some what disappointing of the wow factor when we entered the lobby as well as the resort seemed dated it was okay but have been to better resorts and paid half the money, of course the staff are always great, the food was good.

Excellence Riviera Cancun: very very good... not great

This is a spotless, well maintained resort that situated very conveniently, transfers are easy as is check in. There is some room for improvement on the food ,it was good, but not great. Customer service is fantastic across the board. It would also be nice is there was a little more "action" around the pool area in the afternoon.

Excellence Riviera Cancun: Perfect vacation!

Hotel was amazing. 7 restaurants and none required a reservation. Food in all was fantastic and the staff went out of their way to make you feel special. We will definitely be going back to this hotel.

Excellence Playa Mujeres: fabulous for the 4th time

Outstanding customer service, friendly and helpful staff, fabulous food! What more can you ask for? Well, just ask for it and it is likely you will get it here. The pools are extensive and there was lots of room for everyone. No lounger wars here! The beach is nice for those who love the beach, with great food and service on the beach. Great live night time music made our evenings enjoyable. The room service is good, high end beverages - just ask! This is a relatively quiet resort, not too young [... read more] a crowd... and adults only. Restaurants have excellent food and service for an all-inclusive. Do try the French, the Tapas restaurant and the Basmati for sure. The recent addition of a coffee shop is just icing on the cake... we WILL be back!

Excellence Punta Cana: Best resort in Punta Cana

Amazing food and Drink. No reservations for meals, premium drinks! Excellent house red Gatonegro! Entertainment shows on the evening were entertaining, those that won different games throughout the day were awarded prizes.

Excellence Riviera Cancun: Unbelievable, amazing resort. They aim to serve .

It was an amazing resort. The best I have attended, better by far than a cruise. All staff seem very happy and available at all times. The shows were great, and the Mexican night and Oscar event were fabulous.

Excellence Punta Cana: Excellent Vacation at Excellence Resort

This resort is phenomenal! I had the best vacation of my life. The staff is very attentive to all your requests and needs. There were more restaurants than we had nights available to try them all, and the food was fresh and very well prepared. The spa was quite luxurious, my wife went for several appointments. The beach is better for playing in the surf than swimming, but that is what we wanted as it is also quite picturesque. It is an adults only resort that seems to cater to couples, or at lea [... read more]st pairs. The entertainment staff are very lively and put on great shows. I don't think we will ever go anywhere else after staying at the Excellence.

Excellence Punta Cana: Excellence all round

This was our 4th stay at Excellence Punta Cana and well, each time is a joy. It is always windy and large waves and this time was no different. It did calm towards the end of the week and was quite pleasant and hot.
