Riu Republica: Terrible Resort

I used to be a big fan of Cuban vacation in this resort. Visited this place countless number of times during last 15 years. Nowadays this resort managed to ruin all the previous positive impressions and this current vacation. The nature is fantastic: still beautiful sea and beach. The resort is at 2 stars maximum. It is in terrible conditions and the management is also terrible. Service in some cases is just substandard: ignoring, rude, unprofessional and even endangering behavior. Tourists are  [... read more]not welcome here. Do not want to come back. Many other old timers of this resort have the same opinion.

Royalton CHIC Punta Cana: Good Resort

I initially booked the standard luxury room, and had to upgrade, because the toilet wouldn't flush and there is no door on the shower. After i upgraded, the room was much better so if you are gonna book this hotel just splurge a little and get the upgrade. Another issue of mine was the limited options of food, by 10 p.m. everything was closed and you have to order room service, the saving grace was the food overall was good. Honestly for a royalton chain this hotel is sub-par oh and of course be [... read more] prepared for someone trying to sell you something every single moment.

Bahia Principe Escape Aquamarine: INCREDIBLE RESORT

My second time at the resort and it only got better! I absolutely love the the resort and am already planning my third return. The staff is amazing, always making sure you are being taken care of and extremely friendly. The entertainment completes your trip. They make you feel welcomed and at home while providing hilarious and fun entertainment. No one beats Angel, Willy, Hairon, Marlon, Stefany and Julio. You can't forget the bartenders at the Aquamarine pool. They are always ready to help you  [... read more]and have fun while working as well. Thank you Willy the bartender who always made sure we had something to drink and continuously cleaned all the glasses and anything around the pool. Can't wait to go back!!

Ocean Blue and Sand: Good resort!

This resort has an amazing beach and delicious food. We had some problems with AC on the first day but everything was fixed after we mentioned at the front-desk. The food was very good and service as well. Thera are also boiling, pinpong, billiard where you can have some fun. Also, they have amazing entrainment team, you will have lots fun joining their contests.

Bahia Principe Escape Ambar: Great vacation

The grounds were beautiful, well maintained and very large. Staying at Ambar allowed us to go to the other sister resorts which was nice if you wanted a change. Did the swim out room which was definitely worth it as I was in it everyday. Loved the restaurant m.e.a.t definitely worth it. The foam party and silent disco were the two highlights of activities for me. Wonderful trip overall and great staff.

Grand Palladium Punta Cana: Great resort

This resort was wonderful . Beach was awesome and beautiful . Stayed in loft suite as there were 3 adults. So it had a king and full bathroom downstairs and pull out and half bath upstairs. Very clean room . Both mattresses were pretty hard. Cleaning staff amazing. WiFi sucks everywhere but that’s all if Dominican. Buffet excellent every day. Wait staff excellent. Went to spa twice it’s the best I’ve ever had. Small casino in resort too. Beautiful grounds. 2 drawbacks. 1, very little Engli [... read more]sh spoken. 2, huge resort ! I spent all of my vacation walking in circles . Lost all of the time . Be ready to walk ALOT! And no WiFi which I just don’t care about. Fabulous staff !

Bahia Principe Explore Punta Cana: Great Resort, amazing staff

The staff were amazing and the resort was very clean! The events they had we're enjoyable and they had lots of little things happening around the resort. I would definitely come back. Only thing I would like to see is their rooms updated (at least the one I stayed in)

Bahia Principe Escape Aquamarine: Amazing staff!!

Grand Bahia principe aquamarine is nothing less than amazing, the entertainment staff go above and beyond to make sure you are having a great time. They are all extremely nice especially Willy, angel, marlon, stephany, Julio and hairon. The bar and restaurant staff are extremely nice.

Excellence Punta Cana: Wonderful resort!

The grounds are very well manicured at this hotel and the rooms are very large. We had an ocean view suite and it had a fantastic view with a wraparound deck. The food was great in all of the restaurants although the lobster was a bit overcooked at The Lobster House. The staff work very hard especially Ariel who is a waiter at the pool. He was very attentive and always quick to fill our drink order. The one thing that surprised me at this resort was the pina coladas and daiquiries were made from [... read more] the slushy machines and not from scratch...these are just too sweet for me. Just would have thought that a resort of this calibre would be serving great mixed drinks. We will definitely be returning for the rooms, lovely beach, service and food.

Royalton Hideaway Punta Cana: Great Service

The hotel's service was great. They had food available anytime along with drinks including specialty coffee. The butler service was exceptional and made things much easier including getting to my room, learning about the property and getting reservations for dinner. The hideaway beach area was great, very quiet with a great view as it is up a bit higher. I do wish that the vendors which patrol the beach did not bother people so much.

Majestic Colonial Punta Cana Beach Resort: Another Amazing Trip

As I sit reflecting on the last fantastic 9 day’s I cannot imagine why anyone would feel unsafe here. This marks our 8 th visit. The beach is amazing we love the attention we got from Junior , Irene and Henry (by the way he makes the best Majestic).To all the wait staff, gardeners the maids everyone always stops to say Hola. The entertainment staff Fifi, Coca Coca , Jamie Fox and Sexy you guys are the best. Our pool bartender Luis great frozen mojito ! Our room swim out was amazing. Food was [... read more] great. The best part of our trip was our butler Yeferson Nunez he is the most wonderful person always there to help you and make your trip amazing. Thank you for all you do we will miss you! Until next time ❤️ 🤗

Barcelo Bavaro Palace: Amazing Resort

We've been to DR at least 8+ times, and by far this was the best resort. We did spoil ourselves with the Ocean Front Premium Level room, which had many perks associated with it, and well worth the extra few $$. The room location was as described - an actual ocean front room, very clean and modern looking. The beach was beautiful and very clean. The restaurants were fantastic, service, menu options and quality of meal. The staff was great pleasant and helpful. The kids loved the splash par [... read more]k, Pirate Island and the pools. And of course, the golfing was amazing! This resort is a 5 star +, and definitely one we will return to in the future.

Bahia Principe Escape Aquamarine: Loved our vacation!

This is an extremely large resort. Staff were always asking how we were enjoying our stay and if there was anything we wanted or needed. Food was excellent. Reservations for a la carts were difficult to get at times we wanted- reserving about two weeks before arrival was the only way we got the ones we did. Staff tried hard to accomodate any requests we had, for the most part, speaking very good english. Rooms were clean, bedding and towels changed daily. Resort grounds very clean and well main [... read more]taned. Beach beautiful. Although you can snorkel here, there is very few fish to see - excursions are necessary for a good snorkeling experience. Shows and nightly entertainment were well done - we especially enjoyed The Lion King and Burlesque. Local vendors wander the beach, but a "no thanks" has them moving on quickly. Overall, one of the nicest, cleanest resorts we have visited.

Catalonia Royal Bavaro: Very nice.

Hotel grounds very nice.rooms need some work.ac doesn’t work good.food was above average.beach was not good,very weedy and not clear water.staff need to speak better English.lots of time share people bugging all the time

TRS Turquesa: Live like royalty!!

We absolutely loved our stay at TRS Turquesa! Very clean and well maintained resort. Staff were amazing and food was made with love. Everything was well organized and detailed so we felt comfortable and confident with our entire stay. This was our first trip down south so we didn't know what to expect however our trip advisor with Trip central always clarified with us. We would book with trip central again.

Ocean El Faro: GARBAGE

Never again... other than the fact that we were promised PREMIUM BAR is one of the reasons we chose this resort instead of Hard Rock....This hotel is OBVIOUSLY new as it shows with how the workers take care of things. I am now missing over $300 USD from the maid's in the room, my engagement ring as well as other jewellery Items. When we brought it to the attention of the hotel they said "Sorry sir we cannot do anything as we are not responsible" and then said "None of our staff entered your  [... read more]room"... so then who cleaned it? Thats just the start...if you don't tip GOODLUCK on getting a drink... our friend had just arrived the next day and it took him over 30 minutes to get a drink when he first checked in and the hotel was DEAD. We were okay on getting drinks cause we have already tipped over $40 USD. Half the restaurants were closed when they were being promoted as being open... on your first full day they will lie to you (the buggy drivers) and say we will take you to the beach and you end up at a lighthouse where they try up selling vacations to you... then guess what? You never see that buggy guy again (gets his commission then f***s off) Horrible experience for my birthday and I regret every dollar I spent on this place. Servers were SUPER disrespectful even at the "24 Hour Diner" that hever had no food. You feel like you asked for a million dollars when you ask for french fries. On our last night we wanted to get a snack after their shitty disco and the guy said no food left but then the chef called us over privately and asked what we would like to eat.... I can keep going on about this place but there's no point. They dont respect you or your money. They need another 10 years of building..... And be CAREFUL on the "private beach" that they promote

Occidental Caribe: Great value

Rooms are good Ocean view beautiful. Food was fantastic although at nicer restaurants could wait up to 45 min between courses. Beach and pool areas beautiful and most staff were lovely. Wish there had been some variety of music by pool. Same stuff over and over. All boom boom boom Alcohol not very high standards but I suppose that is the same for most all Inclisives. Grounds very clean. On the whole a good resort for the price!

Royalton Bavaro Resort and Spa: Amazing resort!

Everything was great! Food is delicious and rooms are spacious and clean! Variety of activities for everyone, kids enjoyed their stay so much. A la carte restaurants are amazing and the overall service is great!

Bahia Principe Explore Punta Cana: Will definitely go back!

The level of service from the front desk to the house keeping ..dinning staff and beach bar was phenomenal... it was our first visit to Dominican and this hotel blew our expectations right out of the water!! The resort is beautifully manicured and so clean.. the food was exceptional and the beach was beautiful.. can’t wait to take our children back next year! Thank you to all the amazing staff at the grand Bahia Principe for making our week!! See you soon

Majestic Colonial Punta Cana Beach Resort: great resort with very welcome staff
