Majestic Mirage Punta Cana All Suite Resort: Second Time Around!

Loved it. Gorgeous beach with very little seaweed. The service was exemplary everywhere. The Concierge was actually very helpful and a nice touch. The food was varied and well-prepared. The resort is approximately two years old and very modern.

Iberostar Waves Punta Cana: Another great stay but also a con alert ...

We are a 60ish couple that have stayed at this resort 7 times in the past 14 years. We have always had a great experience but as with any resort there are pros and cons. The Iberostar Punta Cana is a traditional style resort that is well maintained, everything is clean and the staff are great. The common areas are updated, the rooms are clean with excellent housekeeping but do show signs of age. If you are looking for that trendy brand new feel then this probably isn’t the resort for you bu [... read more]t if you like a well maintained old world Spanish feel then this place is great. Food is above average, never a problem finding appetizing stuff to eat here, never a problem getting a drink either, staff are attentive. The beach is on one of the nicest stretches of Bavaro in my opinion. Lots of sandy area and the surf isn’t as high here as other sections due to the proximity of the reef. You can go for walks in either direction, lots to see and many people doing the same thing, a great way to spend time in the sun. Shows are varied and the enthusiastic animation team do a great job to keep you entertained. This is not a party resort altho there is a disco as part of the complex away from the main accommodation area. At nights the pool area is quiet. Beware tho … Back in the mid 2000’s there used to be timeshare salesmen lining the walkway to the buffet, you had to run that gauntlet every time you went to eat which was tiring to say the least … then for many years all that stopped, clear sailing which was awesome. Well, it has returned, but not in the way you would expect … When you check into the resort you are assigned a concierge who sits with you and gives you information on the resort as well as takes your à la carte reservations. The next day when you pick up you reservation slips and they think they have your confidence they sneak in a request for you to attend a 1.5 hour “presentation” on some kind of deal they have cobbled together involving discounts on the premium services at this and other resorts in the area. Oh, and there is a $100 gift (a useless one) for attending … humm, sounds a lot like a variation of the old timeshare scam to me. When the concierge saw I was less than interested he even tried to guilt us into attending with “oh, will you just do it for me …” how pathetic is that … I abruptly ended our relationship at that point. NOTE TO IBEROSTAR MANAGEMENT … people don’t travel long distances and spend a ton of cash to get hustled on their vacation, you are a chain that I always considered above this kind of conduct … stop it! Bottom line tho is this is a great 4 starish resort with high standards, great food, great staff, great shows, great beach, two thumbs up on all that … just beware of the concierge …

Royalton CHIC Punta Cana: The Resort was everything we wantef

We had an amazing time mostly because of the staff.. Yvonne and Flavio were Amazing at Auqafit every day. Tony Shelby and the Entertainment group were Fabulous also The presentation and the taste of the food was Great!!!

Melia Punta Cana Beach Wellness Resort Adults: Wonderful staff

Beautiful resort, excellent restaurants, generally quick service. My husband uses a walker and found it difficult to get around. When we called for golf cart, several times we had to wait a long time or had to call because the dispatcher forgot. Sandro and Edgar were very helpful when they got the call. More variety needed in Rumba buffet.

Bahia Principe Explore Esmeralda: Lovely resort

This is a very clean well run resort. Food is wonderful at the buffet and also at the a la carte restaurants. Staff are always taking care of the manicured grounds. Beautiful beach near by. So easy to get around this large property.

JOIA Bavaro by Iberostar: Relaxing holiday

Great week at the Iberostar Grand Bavaro. The staff are fantastic without exception, always a friendly word and smile and there to assist. The hotel, property, amenities, pools, and the beach are all top of the line. Unfortunately had some issues with food on this trip but a great week in the DR despite this.

Majestic Elegance Punta Cana: Majestic Vacation in February 2020

Our vacation at Majestic Elegance Punta Cana booked with Rachel was amazing. Thank you everyone for making our stay one of a kind. A special thanks go to Tony, Trinidad, Edwin, Maria and Sofia for an outstanding service during our stay. Walking the premises of the resort everyday was quite relaxing. We also enjoyed the Suprebowl entertainment. Staff went above and beyond to ensure everybody had a great time. The premises of the resort are well looked after and very inviting for everyone of all  [... read more]ages. The main restaurant has many stations for both vegetarians and meat lovers of wide variety-fish, lobster, shrimp, chicken, beef pork and other. Cleaning service was very accommodating and qualitative. Amazing service overall…would go back anytime 

Impressive Punta Cana: Amazing resort

The resort was very clean,The restaurant food was very good. The spa was amazing and amazing price. Very nice beach and amazing sun rises. The one thing that we didn’t like was there was not enough chairs at beach or pool.

Caribe Deluxe Princess: Wonderful beach, lots of critters

The Caribe Club Princess is a wonderful place to spend a week. The staff, food and drinks are all great. The grounds are well kept and the buildings are in fair condition. The beachfront at this resort is awesome and we never had trouble getting a chair at the beach or pool. There are vendors at the beach peddling wares. They respect a firm no and will leave you alone after it if you aren't interested in buying anything. However, our first night at the resort a flea market was positioned dir [... read more]ectly in front of the building my room was in and the vendors were extremely aggressive, trying every trick in their book to have you buy from them. It was a bad first impression. This is an ecological resort with a mangrove and wildlife. There are many birds lizards and turtles around to view and enjoy. I see no reason not to return to this resort if I travel to the Dominican Republic again.

Caribe Deluxe Princess: Wonderful resort

We found the service was great! Never waited in line for a drink or a table at the buffet. Lots of room around the pools to have either sun or shade. Could walk the beach for miles. The crepe house and Brazilian restaurants were our favourites! Audelina and Rosa always had a smile!

Bahia Principe Explore Legend: Amazing resort

The service and quality of the resort was exemplary. Definitely an amazing destination for families with kids under 8. Every aspect of the resort caters to families with small children. You would almost think you are at Disney.

Riu Republica: Great Resort!

Many thanks to Bill Gentry from Trip Central in Hamilton who recommended the Rio Republica Resort in Punta Cana. The resort was beautiful, the rooms were clean, we enjoyed the food and the staff was friendly. A week went by very quickly and we can't wait to return next year. Ana & Steve, Brooklin.

Catalonia Bavaro Resort: Beautiful resort!

A beautiful resort with gorgeous and well maintained grounds. Rooms were wonderful and clean. A good variety of food at the buffet. Al carte restaurants were good - I would recommend the Steak and Japanese. Service was top-notch. Beach was perfect, busy during the morning, but always manage to find a chair. I would recommend this resort to anyone. There is an option to upgrade, but we found that there was no need to do this.

Catalonia Royal Bavaro: AMAZING RESORT!

Catalonia Royal Bavaro was an amazing resort! Great atmosphere and fantastic staff, very attentive. My husband booked this vacation as a surprise and to be honest I was a little hesitant. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, the staff where fantastic! Our room was beautiful, spacious and close to all the amenities. it was just a sort 3min walk to the "family side" if you wished to go and explore. The restaurants were all good with fresh enjoyable eats (with the exception of th [... read more]e Italian - we did not enjoy the food there). The Entertainment staff were exceptional! Eric and his crew made our vacation one to remember. Loved this place, we would definitely recommend and will return to Catalonia Royal Bavaro Resort.

Breathless Punta Cana Resort: Best time we've had on a trip so far

Best of all we had the best travel agent, working for us whenever we needed anything. Had issues with the flight, but Victoria worked on her own personal time to make it right for us. She got us what we wanted, can't say enough about how amazing this woman was to us. My husband and I are both very thankful for her and will be sure to use her on our next booking. We will be back Breathless, i guarantee it (heart) Rhonda V.

Majestic Elegance Punta Cana: Amazing Resort!!!

The Majestic Elegance (Club) is probably one of the best resorts we have ever been to. We loved everything about it! The staff our superb (our designated butler Guzman was a delight and the other staff Pastor, Carlos, Francis, Jose, Andres, Jennifer, Masiel, Ismael and Mary) made our stay extra special. The staff are all very courteous and made you feel very special!! We are definitely coming back to this resort!!!! A big thank you to Maya Maceka for booking this memorable trip for us!!

Secrets Cap Cana: Terrific Vacation!

We had a terrific week at Secrets Cap Cana. The staff were extremely friendly and went out of their way to greet us at all times. We didn't see one staff member who seemed unhappy to be working there. The food was very good and the hotel facilities were outstanding. This was one of the nicest resort rooms I have ever stayed in. Being 15 minutes from the Punta Cana airport was an added bonus.

Secrets Cap Cana: Expected more

On arrival we were greeted warmly and registration went quickly and smoothly. Our room was beautiful and comfortable. The beach was truly magnificent, gorgeous white powder sand and ocean has sandy bottom. No rocks to step on in the water. The resorts beach area is large and the lounge chairs are far apart from each other no crowding. However, there were some things I found disappointing. First, the pools, while quite large had decks overcrowded with lounge chairs. There was only about 6 in [... read more]ches between chairs and they lined the edges of the pools. Felt like you were back on the plane. Second, the food was just average. Although you didnt need reservations for the alacarte restaurants, service was slow and food unexceptional. The buffet was always pretty much the same and uninspired. However the hamburgers from the poolside grill were delicious. One of the best burgers I've ever had. Also, the attention of staff was too much at times. I am capable of carrying my towel, thank you.. All in all I would rate this resort 4out of 5.

Dreams Royal Beach Punta Cana: Beautiful spot

We returned from our vacation at the Now Larimar rested and relaxed. There are a few things that could have made our stay better. Three days in a row, I asked for water with my breakfast. Three days in a row, I didn’t get any water. Breakfast is a buffet, so after the waiter brings coffee, they just stand around. It was very frustrating. Our breakfast waiter, the same one for the whole week, was extremely pushy on our last day for a good review on trip central, to the point of taking our frien [... read more]ds phone to do the review himself. Wow! The second thing would be the smell at the Now Garden pool bar. Whether you were at the main bar or down at the swim up bar, you would often get a whiff of vomit. It was rather gross. Lastly, if you are scent sensitive, Now Larimar would be a concern. In the lobbies and main washrooms, the scent was nauseating. It was extremely strong and the 1st day you think it smells fresh, but as the week goes on, the scent just becomes over powering. They need to find something less over powering or not use anything at all. All that being said everyone was friendly, the service was good, as was the food.
