Barcelo Bavaro Palace: Well Maintained Resort

This Is a very good resort to stay at, it's always being cleaned/tidy, staff are helpful and kind, food was very good, and there is a lot to do if you don't want to just relax at the clear blue beach or 4 pools.

Ocean Blue and Sand: Very good resort

My wife and I visited ocean blue with our son march 6th to the 13th good trip staff was friendly and took good care of us the buildings need work our room was beautiful but our sons room was moldy and the air condition didn't work he complained 3 times they didn't move him till I went to the manager food was above average beach is eroded pretty bad pool staff fantastic had a great time didn't do anything our anniversary would consider going back

Royalton Bavaro Resort and Spa: Very clean, bright and urban feel resort

Rooms are very clean and bright, restaurants are top notch, service is excellent, either at the bars or lobby. The only point that was disappointing is the choice of music everywhere, there is no local music anywhere to be found.

TRS Cap Cana Hotel: Not an Amazing Holiday but not the worst.

Our winter get away was to the TRS Cap Cana. It was 2 years in the making. Sadly, don't believe we will be back. This resort is not a 5 star hotel. The poor thing needs some love and attention just to push it to a 4 star rating. However, in saying that, our room was clean as was the rest of the hotel. The pictures on line of the outside grounds are accurate, it's the inside of the hotel and the swim out pools that aren't. The swim out pools need a good scrub and some TLC. The restaurants ar [... read more]e a 3 at best. No buffet only off of a menu. Therefore, the selection wasn't all that great, especially if you're a picky eater. They don't tell you that they will adjust your request off of the menu. We really enjoyed the El Gaucho the most. Overall, the food at the restauranta was ok, nothing over the top. Take a walk along the canal into the small area where the Casino is located. The area has some restaurants and it is really quite quaint but very small and quiet. I believe it will grow as tourists and cruise ships use this area as a stop. You can tell that some of the employees take great pride in their hotel. We had 2 favourites, Ana and Anita. Ana was very personable and took great enjoyment in making us laugh. Anita was our pool side waitress. She is very reserved and quiet but soon warmed up and was quick with a smile and a hello. It's a quiet hotel but we are ok with quiet. If you're looking for beach this is not the resort for you. The entertainment group are awesome and very fun without being over bearing. Loved all of them. We had keyless entry and full wifi. These are both huge hits for us. Happy travels.

Barcelo Bavaro Beach: Very good resort

This was our second time staying at this resort and still great with a few small problems which were looked after right away. The food was still very good with a large selection every day. The grounds were immaculate.

Dreams Onyx Resort and Spa: Love this place

I’m a single man travelling with friends to relax and that’s what I did. Grounds, food, drinks,rooms, service and everything else was beautiful and amazing. Booked preferred and will be doing the same next year. Til next year!

Dreams Onyx Resort and Spa: Amazing resort

We had an amazing time. The grounds are beautiful. We stayed in a swim up preferred club and it was the best one yet that we’ve stayed at. It was connected to the large pool and pool bar. No getting up early for saving chairs cause we had our own. The buffet was average and the a la cartes we did were all good. The service around the pool area and swim ups was amazing. No waiting for drinks there. Same at the beach. The beach was beautiful to walk and swim in. A bit rough for me but people  [... read more]were enjoying it a lot. In the preferred club you have a butler and he did an amazing job for us but they all seem great. We also had connecting seating area to the buffet restaurant for breakfast and lunch with a menu or you could go to the buffet. Overall amazing resort and will be returning next year.

Ocean El Faro: Very nice resort!

Just returned on March 13th from Ocean El Faro, travelled with friends and with hubby. Unfortunately, during our stay it rained a lot, almost every day. The resort is big, fairly new, nice layout. Beach not so great, because it's rocky, but you will find some areas where you can walk in the ocean without any problems (specially at the lagoon). Rooms are nice, clean and spacious, bed is very comfy, A/C works fine, no issue with hot water at all, early morning or late at night always had hot [... read more] water. Mini fridge stacked every day. Blow dryer is great in the bathroom. Drinks are good, food is ok, not the same quality as Mexico, but you will not stay hungry, always find something to eat. Italian and Japanese restaurants are excellent, also BlueMoon , but the Steakhouse we did not like it at all. Entertainment crew is very funny , sometimes too loud at the poolside, but we enjoyed it regardless. Foam Party is a real fun! Overall it is a great resort, we liked it and had a great time! Don't believe all the negative reviews, some people over complain about every small thing, instead enjoy and appreciate the fact that you have the opportunity to travel to a destination where there are palm trees, ocean and sunshine. Well, perhaps now is not a time to travel, but down the road it will possible again

AM Resorts Family Friendly Wild Card: Great resort to spend vacation

Now Larimar hotel is overall great. Great pools with clean not cold water. Clean huge beach. Staff is helpful and friendly. Great main restaurant, but national ones can be better. Service is ok. Algae

Ocean Blue and Sand: Great trip!

Recently stayed at this resort with my soon to be wife. Met some family there. The room we were first in was an older room, hadn't had any renovations as of yet. The A/C did not work which made it hard to sleep. After some talking with the staff we were put in to an amazing room and they were very accommidating. The food and enteratin were very good and pools were fantastic. The beach suffered from storms but didn't seem to affect the 10 days there. Great place to relax and enjoy good company!

Bahia Principe Explore Esmeralda: Relaxing Week

We were asked to do a quick review of the Esmerelda .. we travelled on March 6th before any of the Covid 19 restrictions were put in place. . The Grounds were quite beautiful and well looked after. The buffets and Al la Carte Restaurants were very good. We liked that they had hand sanitizer at the entrance of the buffets and restaurants and made people use it before entering. Our room was spacious and clean. .. the negatives.. There were Resort reps who pestered us on a daily basis to join  [... read more]them on “a tour” of the privileged section. They do not take No Very easily ..that was not an enjoyable part of our stay. ..as well..our patio sliding door would not lock and we couldn’t seem to get anyone to agree to a time to fix it so we did stay in the room for 4 nights without being able to lock the door. We were very surprised about the amount of children at the Esmeralda. Not that it was a deal breaker but we decided to upgrade to the Amber Swim up room for our last 3 nights which was reasonable and so worth it .. the All adult “Amber side”was new , quiet and like a different world over there .. our room was modern and fresh and so nice. The room key was incorporated in your wrist bracelet which was pretty convenient. Our weather for the week at the beach was not the best so we certainly made good use of the deck and pool in our swim up room . All in all we had a nice week .. we would recommend the Amber Adult resort but prob wouldn’t recommend the Esmeralda for couples but for families it would be perfect.

Bahia Principe Escape Ambar: great resort

We had a great time at this resort. Nice and small with great food. Staff was excellent, pool great as well as beach. Nicely renovated and clean. Coffee shop was a nice touch. Not a lot of entertainment. We will be back.

Excellence El Carmen: ok resort

the room was very nice, however we spent the money to upgrade to the swim up room and we were very disappointed. The pool was only skimmed it was not cleaned once for the week we were there. The build up was noticeable and tile was in rough shape. We had maintenance come to fix the deck outside the door because of the dip in it. Also had to have them fix the front door because it wouldn't lock unless you pulled it tight.

Wyndham Alltra Punta Cana: Good resort

The rooms were clean and air conditioning was cold. The grounds were well kept. You can tell that this resort is getting older but it is well maintained. The pool is awesome but it can be difficult to get a lounger at times. The beach is great but the swimming area is not. It has tons of rocks and you have to be very careful where you walk. The area is also small and if your into snorkeling the water has a lot of suspended sand in it and it is difficult to see under water at times. There is lots [... read more] of restaurants and there serve good food. For the most part it's not too difficult to get into the a la cartes and your just walk up, no reservations. The kids club is awesome and my son loved it. Theres a preferred club at this resort and they try to get a bunch of extra money out of you as soon as you get there. I don't like resorts with this kind of system as I don't like feeling like a second class citizen at a resort and I wouldn't return or recommend this resort simply because of this. Overall I enjoyed my time there but I will not be returning.

Barcelo Bavaro Beach: Second time visiting, just as we remembered.....AWESOME!

It was exactly if not better than we remembered from our trip in December 2017. This resort has to have the best staff of any that we have visited. The food is great, rooms were fabulous (especially the beds) and drinks plentiful. The staff is outstanding in every area that you visit. The ones in the restaurant are attentive, the activity staff friendly and the bar staff there when you need them. I have never been to a resort where everyone seems to have a smile on their face and want to ma [... read more]ke your vacation the best ever. The airport transfer is about 15 minutes away...another selling point. Beautiful golf course attached which is challenging to most. Will we go back...… definitely!

Sanctuary Cap Cana Luxury Collection Adults Resort: Beautiful Resort

We are so thankful we stayed at Sanctuary Cap Cana. The resort was filled with beauty! They accommodated our requests most of the time and helped us with every detail. The food was excellent, the rooms were huge and comfortable. We had an amazing view of the ocean. Thank you.

Sunscape Coco Punta Cana: Mediocre at best

The night we arrived, they placed Julie and myself in section 1700 which was about a mile from the main buffet...Julie is disabled and I have bursitis in my hip. They next day we requested a closer room and the DOWNGRADED US to section 5. The room only had 1 chair on the balconey and it took over 2 days and 5 requests from different people (We finally ended up talking to a manager of the hotel and our Sunwing Rep) before we got results. Because of Julie's neck surgery we requested a firm and  [... read more]a soft pillow (which was supposed to be part of the pillow service) and that took over 2 days. We ate at the Lobster restaurant first night and they wanted us to pay for a lobster. The next night was the Japanese Restaurant and I can't describe what they considered to be Japanese food. For my birthday we went to the Steak House (where they wanted us to pay for the steak) so I ordered a filet mignon from the menu (free) and they burnt the outside and provided a baked?? potato with no butter. The main buffet was the best food at the resort mainly because I could skim the grease by taking from the top of the food. We had numerous communications problems with nearly ALL the people who worked at the resort. In closure, we will NEVER go back to that resort. The problems we had are too numerous to list and I will be sending a letter to Sunwing requesting compensation for the extremely bad service we received at this resort.

Bahia Principe Escape Aquamarine: Awesome resort

Beautiful grounds. Excellent service. Great food in the buffet and a la crate restaurants. Beautiful white sandy beach. Beach can be somewhat crowded. Large pool area with enough loungers for everyone. Will definitely return!

Bahia Principe Escape Ambar: AMAZING

All areas of this resort are clean and beautiful. Fun at the pool, breathtaking beach. Plenty of places to eat, great coffee shop. Very comfy rooms with plenty of storage. We would very much like to go again.

Bahia Principe Escape Aquamarine: Perfect Holiday!

My husband and I loved this resort. It was clean, the staff were accommodating and kind. The beach was absolutely stunning as well. I would highly recommend this resort. There was always something to do whether in the Bahia village or right there at the lobby or pool. We highly recommend the French restaurant (El Olivio I believe). It was delicious. This resort was top notch and we would definitely go back!
