Breathless Punta Cana Resort: Amazing vacation.

The resort was beautiful. There were palm trees everywhere. The resort was clean and well maintained. the food was amazing and we always had a good variety to choose from. The beach was spectacular. You could chose between a quiet area and a party area.

Melia Caribe Beach Resort: Overall awesome resort

My partner and I vacationed here for my birthday for the week. When we first arrived we were told we would get a room closer to the beach from our travel agent but when we arrived we were booked into a room right by the lobby. Not much we could do so we went to the lobby bar before heading to our room. On our way to collect our luggage the desk concierge came us and asked us if we had been there yet and as we had not he had told us that he switched our room for us, closer to the beach. When we a [... read more]rrived in our room it was nice, smelt a little musty but whatever. The Jacuzzi in our room however was not clean so we didn't use it. Our room overall was decent. Hot water and air conditioning was working :) We had no problems with getting new towels or our fridge being restocked. Our first morning there we were woken up with a call to our room at 7am..not impressed and 2 more every half an hour after that. Them wanting to give us a free hour massage for the trouble the day prior was the excuse. Of course it was a timeshare tour. So beware (they wear all white). I wasn't happy about that as it was almost 5 hours long and even though we kept saying no they kept pushing it. In the end we only ended up with a half hour massage so I was even more pissed. Normally you get more then that out of a timeshare tour. So half my day wasted. The resort is beautiful, it is large. I don't mind walking though so it didn't bother me. The grounds are extremely clean, they do an amazing job. The food....YUUMM!! We didn't visit the buffet to many times but it was pretty good when we did; breakfast and lunch. The snack bar was delicious. Just the right type of food for when your feeling just a little hungry. The a la cartes..wow! Amazing! We did have a little problem at one on my birthday dinner night. She forgot our apps and my partner had asked her to sing happy birthday to me but she never even bothered coming back after forgetting the appetizers. So that sucked. I mean it was my birthday. But overall great food. Service at the restaurants..awesome. Service at the bars everywhere other than the lobby was great. The lobby bar we stood there for 10 mins sometimes and they would serve others around us when we were clearly there first. Even sitting at the bar with empty drinks for awhile it happened. The pool was okay. A bit cold for water temperature but at least it was big so if it got busy it wasn't too crowded. The beach was fair. The bar was pretty far away and there were a lot of vendors. We didn't get bothered too much by them though. The water was nice once you got used to it after 2 mins and as long as you get to the beach before noon lots of chairs to choose from. Overall we had a great experience and I would definitely recommend this resort. I can't say anything was awful. Would book here again.

Royalton CHIC Punta Cana: Amazing vacation

My partner and I stayed at the chic, to celebrate my 30th birthday. We stayed in the the Diamond club, with a swim out room and it was worth the extra money spent! Our butter Joan (aka JJ) was amazing, and made sure our mini finger and bar was always stocked. Remi was around to help out at time that JJ was busy, and did an awesome job! The Bar waitress always remembered what we were drinking, and brought them with the biggest smile on her face (I'm sure her ace had to hurt from smiling by the en [... read more]d of the day). We loved our stay so much, we tired to extend it, Wilkin hooked us up big! I miss the smell of fresh burgers being grilled everyday by the pool. All the food was so good and the portion sizes were great! We enjoyed our stay so much, and would recommend it to anyone!

Bahia Principe Escape Ambar: A Fabulous Anniversary Trip!

Amazing pool, bars, entertainment staff and rooms. Food was good and a lot better then other resorts I have been to. We will return again at some point. The only thing that needs some work is the wifi connection. If you want a better wifi connection you have to pay extra for the premium wifi. This shouldn’t be the case. You pay a lot of money for your stay. Good wifi shouldn’t have to be a worry

Riu Republica: Great Resort!

Our group of 4 gals just returned from a one week stay at the Riu Republica. We had a beautiful week with lots of sunshine and hot weather every day! This resort is huge and has numerous pools and bars. It was the beginning of March breaks so there were lots of college students celebrating but they were well behaved for the most part. Beach - Arena Gorda so it’s great if you like playing in the waves Food - great selection. Lots of restaurants that you don’t have to book ahead [... read more]. A few of the evening restaurants were buffet style which was not as fancy. I do wish the Riu enforced the dress code a little more at dinner. Rooms - Clean and good size. Staff - always friendly and polite Grounds - well kept and clean. Lots of staff working everywhere

Bahia Principe Explore Esmeralda: Loved everything!

Service was excellent, food was amazing, grounds were beautiful, room could use some help though..broken drawers, leaking shower and just showing it’s age. We loved the service, food, kids club, pools.

Bahia Principe Escape Aquamarine: Amazing place to stay

This is a beautiful place to stay. The staff were great to deal with. They were very interactive and always kept involved. Would recommend to anyone wanting to go somewhere warm. The only negative this i can say is don't eat the eggs in the morning because you are bound to eat lots of shells

Dreams Royal Beach Punta Cana: Beautiful resort

Our stay at Now Larimar was great! The grounds and beach are beautiful and well kept. Our room was very spacious with a great view. We found the glass wall between the bathroom and the living area a little ackward as it did not provide much privacy. Overall the service was good most of the time. Special thanks to Gladys from the Preferred reception area who was always so helpful and pleasant.

Bahia Principe Escape Ambar: Awesome!

Nicely renovated, clean, very pleasant staff. Didn’t do any a la cartes as we found the buffet was perfect. The swim up room was the best upgrade we could have made! We’re thinking about returning next spring.

Barcelo Bavaro Palace: Way Way Too Busy

The grounds were beautiful, the beach was nice and the weather was gorgeous. However, the food was just okay. We couldn’t always find something appetizing at the buffet and the a la cartes food was worse than the buffet. The room had a great view of the beach but no privacy on the balcony, even though each had a jaccuzzi you had to deal with parting neighbours staring at you. The bathroom in the room did not have a private door- just a frosted glass slider with a hole in it as a handle. The se [... read more]rvice unfortunately was one of the worst parts. We could head to the buffet for breakfast and not one server would acknowledge us or offer water. We did stumble across a couple friendly staff, but that was not the norm. We also decided to stay at the palace because we were told you could stay at one and “play” at them all, however when we tried to go to the the adults only “beach resort” for some much needed quiet to relax at the beach, we were told we were not allowed to get drinks at the bar. And the front desk confirmed this. If we were just looking for warm weather and ocean breeze we would have been happy. However we wanted a quiet romantic getaway with great food- and this wasn’t it.

Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Punta Cana: Amazing hotel

The hotel once again lived up to our expectations. There was plenty of food choices and the quality was good and the service was good . We will be going back again for our 4th trip. The pool service was a little slow and could do with improvement

Royalton Bavaro Resort and Spa: Royalton Bavaro Punta Cana

Nice resorts food was excellent room was clean,there was staff at the front desk of our building who harassed us everytime we left or entered the building and there was a bit of a language barrier but other then that a high end resort.

Bahia Principe Explore Esmeralda: Beautiful Resort

We just spent 10 days with another couple (related and best friends) we cannot say enough about this amazing resort. It was clean the grounds were well immaculate and gorgeous the food was the best we have ever experienced in the 15+years we’ve been travelling! The staff were friendly and helpful our pool bartender Maria was an absolute sweetheart ♥️ If I had to say anything negative it would be that our rooms were not ready and the hotel was overbooked but we hung in there literally s [... read more]tayed at the desk until we got our room keys from that moment on it was 100% the BEST!!!! Thank you Luxury Bahia Esmeralda 😊👍🏼 We would definitely return to this Resort!

Bahia Principe Explore Legend: As amazing as the first time!

Returned to this hotel for a second time with our 6 y.o. son. It was as great as the first time. From the check in that was very quick, to our room, always clean and stocked with the usual, to all the restaurants ( A la carte or buffets). The service was always provided with a smile, and special attentions provided to our son. Even though hotel was near capacity, we never had to search too much to get a chair at the water park, main pool or beach side. Making our reservations at the A la ca [... read more]rte restaurants went well and food at buffet is good enough that we even cancelled an A la carte reservation one night to go back to buffet. This hotel is geared for families with children so not the best spot for a romantic getaway, but trust me, your kids will love it. No sign of the Hand, foot, mouth illness that we see in a lot of reviews. All being said, we are considering returning in December for Christmas with friends and their children

Punta Cana Princess: Wonderful vacation!

We had a wonderful vacation at the Punta Cana Princess from February 28 to March 5.We had requested a room close to the beach because my husband had injured his leg and after arriving at dawn due to bad weather in Toronto, we were very happy to be on the bottom floor and in a room easily accessible to everything, pool, beach and Mare Nostrum. The staff is really energetic, fun and helpful at this resort and made us feel very welcome and comfortable.A special recognition to Gray, Dalson, Jose  [... read more]and Kenia as well as Ania. We loved that we didn't have to make reservations for the restaurants and really enjoyed the seafood at the Mare Nostrum and the Fondue. The steakhouse was so-so but others were happy with it. We heard good things about the Italian. Lots of older people here because there isn't much walking. We will come again as we age as things are convenient for you but lots of fun! The beach of course is amazing with lots of big waves to jump in. This was my second time here and it didn't disappoint. Thank so much everyone for a wonderful vacation.

Bahia Principe Explore Punta Cana: Grand Bahia Principe Punta Cana

We have traveled down south a number of times but this was the first to an all-inclusive with our young kids. We were a group of 3 families all having 2 kids each, ages ranging from 4-8 years old. Usually when we travel we travel to places where we cook on our own - so it was nice not to have to think about food and what to eat. There was something for everyone to eat for sure. We were able to finds seats by the pool and beach when we needed and didn't have to wake up super early to secure a [... read more] spot. We found a beach spot close enough to the pool that we could run back and forth all day as some wanted to be at beach in our group and some wanted to be at pool. The places we have traveled in the past have not been as big so we found the beach to be super crowed but that comes with a large complex and no fault of anyone - just not our cup of tea. the Japanese restaurant was by far the best food and experience, they did a great job here - I highly recommend you book in advanced at least twice during your time there. Evening shows were great but a little late for the kids. Kids "mini" activities were at 8pm and the show was at 9pm - which made for a long day, but they all hung in and enjoyed them all. It would have been nice to have them at 7pm and 8pm (but I know it is hard to accommodate everyone). Over all a great place to go if all-inclusive is what you are looking for. It is very large and has lot of variety - pool and beach are nice with lots of places to eat near by.

Impressive Punta Cana: great time

Impressive Punta Cana: impressive resort and spa

Très belle plage, bien entretenue. Bon service, staff amical. Toutefois trop de nick nack à vendre sur la resort par des gens souvent trop harcelants. Manque de staff pour le nettoyage de chambres ! La nourriture très bien au buffet international ,excellente variété! Resto à la carte un boff ! Qualité/prix c'est très bien !

Dreams Royal Beach Punta Cana: Lovely vacation stay!

Went with a group of 8 people. Resort is extremely well maintained. Grounds were beautiful and lush. Staff was lovely and friendly - never pushy. Celebrated a special birthday while there and the staff at the Italian restaurant went out of their way to provide us with a delicious birthday cake and fun experience. Wilki and Naikol were our favourite servers at the buffet. Food was great - loved, loved, love the Italian restaurant and the Steakhouse was our second favourite. Rooms were love [... read more]ly and always clean. The beach is beautiful and the pool was great too! The only thing we didn't care for was the push to discuss timeshares when we first arrived. We were all tired, hungry and thirsty and the only thing we wanted to do was get to our room to refresh and change then find food and drink.

Barcelo Bavaro Palace: Amazing Resort

This resort is fantastic. We were not sure how we would feel about how big it was....but honestly you don't feel the size at all. Everything is quite close and walkable. Great for kids. Tons to do. We would definitely return!
