Catalonia Bavaro Resort: Average Resort

Went to this resort with two girlfriends. We had a great time because it was three friends who wanted to get away and enjoy the sunshine and it was a great week of sunshine. The food was not great, not many options in the buffet, same thing every day. but you can always find something, it's only a week. The breakfast omelet guy was fantastic. The a la cartes that we tried were good, I highly recommend the Japanese and Italian. Steakhouse was good the first night, not the second. The beach  [... read more]was ok, but the water was terrible, I wonder if it was because of the hurricanes in late 2017, so much seaweed, they had a tractor going along and trying to clean it up, but didn't help much. The pool... I suggest you add a ladder or two, to get out, rather than have to swim half way around to get to the walkout area. We upgraded to Privileged, (should have saved our $$) our room was nice and we got a few perks, like sitting in a separate section of the buffet, avoiding lineups. (not worth the extra $25 per day) We did have access to the Privileged Bar where we spend a few evenings with Junior, the Best Bartender ever. In the afternoons the bar was serviced by Jennifer, she too was absolutely amazing. I would not return to this resort.

Tropical Deluxe Princess: This resort only have 2 amazing things. Beautiful beach beautiful swimming pools.

During our stay, we never got any hot water in the room. No coffee maker, no iron . The food at the buffet very mediocre, always the same. At night nothing to do, lobby only radio music. Show very mediocre. Stay 8 times in Punta Cana, this resort was the worst.

Dreams Royal Beach Punta Cana: A little disappointing but great staff!

Great service. Lovely weather and fine sand beach. Food is ok. Beach is packed. Shade is coveted. Comfortable chairs are reserved for the preferred club and “special members’ Rooms are comfortable. Bathrooms could be cleaner. Gardens are lovely. Entertainment is cute, with the occasional real talent. Lots of activities are available if you want them. The pool area is standard nice but open only from 8-6 so no early morning or evening swimming. I would not choose this hotel again but my va [... read more]cation was quite nice for the price....about $1500 for a week including airfare from Toronto

Breathless Punta Cana Resort: Good resort if you like to party - not if you like relaxing and quiet

The rooms, grounds, food, beach and staff were amazing. We have no complaints. However, we were not prepared for the craziness of this resort. Thankfully we were able to find some quieter areas to enjoy. The party pool is insane, and the singles vibe was at times unbearable.

Barcelo Bavaro Palace: Unfforgetable Stay

Our friends and us spent just a wonderful time, great food and drinks, entertainment and the weather came with sunny days. The check-in process took a little more than expected, maybe need more staff at the front desk at arrival time, many flights landing between 12~4 pm. Wi-Fi was not included in the package, today's world most people want to be connected.

Grand Sirenis Tropical Suites: Wondeful Resort!!

Went to this resort April 7-14th. We had a wonderful room. The services were all wonderful. Beach is absolutely stunning and goes on forever. The grounds are kept very clean. Food was amazing in the buffet and the a la cartes. Lots of Beach Chairs available at the beach and the pool area. The daily and nightly entertainment was amazing. We didn't want our week to end. The only negative part of the resort was the check in. We were left waiting around for check in. We wish they would [... read more] have just told us it would be a couple hours and we would have left and came back but they made it seem like it was going to happen quickly. There was no one else checking in with us so I am not sure why they made us wait around for so long.

Bahia Principe Explore Esmeralda: Esmeralda - Excellent!

We had a great vacation staying at the Bahaii Principe Esmeralda. Great food, drink, service, entertainment - close to the pools and ocean. Highly recommend it - and would go back to this resort again. Cheers!

Grand Bavaro Princess: Great spot! Would return!!

The hotel/grounds were huge. The place is immaculate, and beautiful. Had a great time, enjoyed the beach, and both pool areas. I personally never had a bad meal, one of our party did however have a bad steak (the striploin, it was horrible) at the steak restaurant. I would definitely return to this spot and would highly recommend to friends.

Occidental Caribe: Fun for everyone!

This resort has something for everyone! The beach is long, clean and beautiful. There's three pools, one is a "party" pool, another is a splash pad/wading pool for young children, and the third is family friendly. There's even rock climbing, a trapeze, and trampoline to keep the kids entertained. The nightlife is great with live music at both lobby bars, and live shows every night that will appeal to young and old alike. The Hurricane night club is great if you love Soca. The buffets are de [... read more]licious and the Japanese Restaurant is so fun! Staff kept our rooms clean and the grounds were immaculate. I would definitely come back with my family another time.

Breathless Punta Cana Resort: Party or Relax

My husband and I just returned from a week stay at breathless. The beach here was beautiful and you could go for long walks daily. There were many pools to choose from some being the quieter pools while the other was the busier pool with music blasting all day. There was a mixture of people of all ages, singles and couples. The room was okay definitely needs some updating and more furniture ex. couch or table and chairs especially when you decide to order room service. The bathroom was lar [... read more]ge with large shower. Do not get a ground floor room unless you want to get woken up every night from people walking back from the Afterdark bar which is opened until 3:00am. We were woken up on several occasions to people yelling in the hallway. This doesn't happen in a couples only resort. The food was good, but not exceptional. The service was very good and the employees work hard every day and some have multiple jobs. The employees is really what makes this resort survive. We couldn't make reservation for supper however some of the waiting time was really disappointing. The entertainment was good and especially the beach party/Fire show, but unfortunately the pool party was cancelled due to rain. Lots of entertainment throughout the day on the beach/pool if you like to exercise. The drinks were watered down including the wine which surprised me for a 4+ resort. This was really disappointing. This was our first time at a resort with singles usually we do couples only (not to be critical but The excellence Resort/Secrets Resort). In the future we will be going to couples only resorts. This was not as luxurious as we had hoped, but still had a good time.

Occidental Caribe: Great Beach Resort

the Occidental Carrie is all about the beach and pools. It is an older resort so the rooms could be best described as adequate but dated. Cleanliness was good and the service was excellent. The entertainment was very disappointing. There are several hotels in the are and it makes one wonder why some one doesn’t create half a dozen quality shows and rotate then from one resort to another and just repeat week after week since few people seem to stay much more than a week. We enjoyed the special [... read more]ty restaurants.

Majestic Colonial Punta Cana Beach Resort: Will go back again!

Excellent vacation, great food , service, beach and pool. Accommodations and weight room excellent as well. Wilson and Nicholas at beach bar were terrific. The Animation Team is a lot of fun led by Angelica.. she is great! Pablo and Yrlandy were out servers at the beach steakhouse and they were also fantastic. Spa option was enjoyed by my children!

Occidental Caribe: Beautiful beach. Large resort

Super large resort. Always something to do. Great large pools. You can always find a chair around the pool or on the beautiful, powdery beach. Food and beverages available 22 hours aday. Yes 22 hours. The food/drinks are at a 3 star resort level at best. 80% of the staff seem annoyed to be there. A few great staff members like the doctor that is there 24/7 Beds are comphy. Rooms are clean and a/c works well. I would only go back to this resort if it was on sale at an amazing price.

Occidental Caribe: Great resort, beautiful beaches!!!

The hotel was great, while there are always small things that you could complain about what's the point. The weather is hot, rooms were always cleaned and fridge restocked daily. Food was plentiful and the service was bar none.

Occidental Caribe: Great resort!

This was our first time in an all inclusive resort so we have nothing to compare it with. The grounds were amazing. We loved the pools and outdoor activities. We came for a wedding and the ceremony and food were outstanding. The restaurants were great. We had reservations to the Italian and Japanese and we were pleasantly surprised. The employees were very engaging and tried to accomodate you. The buffet restaurant is huge and the food was hit and miss. Still always able to find something yummy. [... read more] My least favourite part was our room. Had a musty smell and the beds were only doubles. But we didn't spend much time in the room. The beach was the best part. Waves are huge all the time and water is clean.

Riu Republica: All around great

Stayed a week at riu republica and it was a great vacation. Food was pretty good. There’s something for everyone. No reservations make it great for the specialty restaurants. Staff was great. The activities were pretty much endless. Beach is great. All around great vacation

Barcelo Bavaro Beach: A week in Paradise

Everything about this resort went above and beyond our expectations. We never understood people who would return to a resort more than once but after an amazing couples trip we cant wait to return with the kids to experince everything Barcelo has to offer.

Catalonia Royal Bavaro: Great Holiday

Overall, Catalonia Royal was great. The grounds are well kept.The majority of the staffs are amazing. I do however was very disappointed in the staff at the Italian. The food was excellent, but the staff made you feel they did not want you there. They did not smile, it seems they did not want to be working there. I do however have to call out the following staff from the Thalassa restaurant, Andrea, Jean, Angelina and Lorenzo, were absolutely amazing. From the Piano bar, Edward was fantastic, a [... read more]lways smiling and very friendly. Our room in building 46, ground floor was fabulous. Lots of hot water. No issues with our room. The beach was amazing, very warm and no seeweed. Thanks
