Bahia Principe Explore La Romana: Great Resort

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful time at this resort. The food was fantastic, the pool was beautiful and the beach area quiet and peaceful! We had some problems with power outages (3 times) but who cares, you're on vacation!! Overall I would reccommend this resort to anyone!

Bahia Principe Escape Bouganville: Awful service!

All in all this “luxury”resort is far, far behind the standard in Punta Cana. This resort was occupied at least by 85% by French speaking travelers and returning travelers that had significant impact on the service for the rest. There was a preferential treatment for returning travelers. When more guests arrived to the resort a salad bar table with food has been removed to allow bring more dining tables. 2 days prior departure a cockroach running on the white tablecloth with the tea pots and [... read more] cups. Will not recommend this resort to any of my friends and even though love the beach and room will never return back. Beach- outstanding, clean, no seaweed. Room- spacious and clean, but every day something was missing-face cloth, bath towels or left only 1, etc…. Service- some staff very friendly, some not at all/ ignorant; had hard time to get a newspaper even though it was available. Food- very limited choice, poor selection. Impossible to get even a cup of good coffee, everywhere installed only the big commercial machines with pre-set choices. Milk was often missing or sour or replaced by the water. The machine wasn’t often working due to the missing water and no one was happy to exchange 18l water bottle when empty. This level of service is below our expectancy- promises never delivered, had to ask for basic stuff, hassle every step of the way.

Bahia Principe Escape Bouganville: Great resort, second time we have been there

Great resort. Everyone was friendly, rooms clean. Staff all accommodating. Second time there. Thoughly enjoy it. Entertainment good. Good service from waitress Could not ask for any more. May go back again.

Bahia Principe Escape Bouganville: Good for Relaxation

Well maintained. Always quiet after 10 pm. Clean everywhere and maintenance always evident. Food good but not superb. Generally no trouble booking ala carte but restaurants seemed mostly empty even though fully booked. More staff may be required. Time share and condo sales people annoying. Beach minimal. Water toys extremely limited. Staff very good. Evening entertainment very limited . In adult only area, easy listening entertainment is available between 7 and 10 pm. Bar service in the area is  [... read more]however very slow strictly because of a lack of staff. Nightly shows need serious improvement. Activities could be better advertised. If you want a nice place to relax, this should be it, just don't expect high end entertainment, location, or perfectly clear ocean waters. Resort area is relatively small as compared to the average. Don Pablo needs to rethink the window between the bathroom and the bedroom. Purpose for this window is completely unclear. Translucent door to the toilet area adds to the issue. It is possible to watch someone having a shower or poop from inside or outside the room if drapes are not closed. Drapes to the bathroom are opened and closed from the bedroom side of the window. Most of the action is not at the adults only section but in the general non adults only area. Higher quality liquor costs extra (very expensive) but for most people included liquor selection is adequate. I would recommend this to persons that just want to relax with reasonable standards. I would not recommend this resort to people that want to snorkel from the beach, want crystal clear water, or want ready access to other water activities. If you want good entertainment, not so much. If you want to walk but stay on the beach or the resort, not so much. Overall better than most 4 stars due to resort cleanliness and service but not sure a 5 star rating is appropriate.

Catalonia Bayahibe: We really loved this resort!

This resort has a great casual atmosphere. The quieter location- 45 min from Punta Cana- is great. The food is terrific with 2 grills and other stations with made to order food each meal. There are also 3 restaurants you can eat in any 4 nights.We spent all our time on the beach but there is also one large pool. The staff are really great- friendly and helpful. Most of the staff speak very little English but it's easy to communicate and the front desk staff speak English. The hotel is a little r [... read more]un down but we didn't mind because it has a lot of character with beautiful tiles and colours, and everything worked.

Bahia Principe Escape Bouganville: Clean, well-landscaped resort

Staff were very friendly and helpful, food was good, and the rooms and grounds were very well-kept. We were disappointed that there were no places to just be quiet and peaceful. Even down on the beach or at the jacuzzi area, the noise from the main pool was loud. We booked the Don Pablo section because previous reviewers had said it was quiet, and because we wanted the butler service. We only saw our butler once, and our request for ice in our room at 4 p.m. was only met twice in the week we wer [... read more]e there.

Viva Wyndham Dominicus Beach: Great resort!

The Viva Dominicus beach was overbooked for a bungalow so they offered us to stay at the sister resort Viva Dominicus Palace in a superior room. Although disappointed at first we were happy the grounds, lobby and rooms were always very clean. We preferred the pools as the beach was a little too rocky for our tender feet. There was always fresh towels, pool towels and plenty of lounge chairs to choose from. Restaurants were nice and clean with some stunning views of the sunset and offered a varie [... read more]ty of tasty food! The staff were friendly and helpful. I would love to go back!

Bahia Principe Escape Bouganville: Can't wait to go back!

This hotel is everything you could want in a resort! Beautiful grounds, outstanding service, gorgeous rooms! The breakfast buffet has an incrediable selection. The item I could find fault with was the availablity of the a la carte's. I booked all of mine using the app within an hour of arrriving at the resort but the Italian had no availability all week.

Dreams La Romana: Very good, but room for Improvement.

Dreams La Romana a lovely resort with plantation-style character, beautiful pools and a gorgeous beach with calm water that was wonderful for swimming, lounging and relaxing. Out from shore there was sufficient winds for good catamaran sailing. Our accommodations were comfortable, although we could hear the next room through the unused shared doors. The staff were friendly and helpful. However, certain staff were always in sales-mode trying to get you to buy services or future vacations at Amre [... read more]sorts properties. They were so persistent that after a while you just had to ignore them when they called to get your attention. We really liked not having to reserve for dinner. All resorts should do this. Food was typical all-inclusive with some great dishes, mostly average and some mediocre. The breakfast and lunch buffets were consistently good. Deserts were not so good – lots of spongy, gooey, sugary manufactured stuff. The puddings and ice cream were better. The house white and red wines were poor, the rosé better. They did have a decent wine list of Spanish and Italian wines for additional cost. They also have an excellent coffee shop. Overall a very good experience but definite room for improvement.

Bahia Principe Escape Bouganville: Best Time!

My boyfriend and I went to this resort over March break (March 14-21). The food was really good, although was not as hot as it could have been. We had no trouble finding something different to eat every day and ate at 4 of the 5 a la cartes. The buffet dinner on Friday was amazing. We ate until we were stuffed. The beach was nice and the staff work very hard to maintain the grounds/beach. The resort is located on a cove so you can only walk so far but that wasn't an issue with us. We rented non [... read more] motorized equipment from the activities centre more than once. We didn't go swimming in the ocean (we preferred the pool) but saw many people swimming. Our room was huge, the bed was comfortable and they switched our pillows to our liking. On the last night, the room was decorated for a birthday celebration by our butler Freddy. All the staff are very friendly and hard working around the clock. I especially loved the happy faces of the girls opening the doors/seating us in the morning at the breakfast buffet. We would definitely recommend this resort to our family and friends!

Perfect resort if you are looking for a smaller boutique experience within a big scale resort. All amenities are close for easy walking.
