Melia Punta Cana Beach Wellness Resort Adults: Great value

Beautiful beach, great service, good place to relax and recharge. Good wellness activities. Rarely waited more than a couple of minutes to be served at a bar or for seating at a restaurant. Overall, really good value for the money.

Riu Republica: still the number one party hotel

everything was great , food, ambiance, staff & great vibe & great people. they could do a better way to make reservation at the a la carte restaurants on the resort. but most defintely its an experience that anyone should try at least once :)

Majestic Mirage Punta Cana All Suite Resort: Great Time

Had a great time with during a week's stay with my wife and daughter. Special shout out to Fransisca our concierge, Lenet at the pool, Rafi at the bar, Felix at the steakhouse and Diaz our photographer.

Paradisus Grand Cana: Excellent vacation!

We stayed in Paradisus Grand Cana on November 12-19, 2025. Resort in very conveniently compact with close proximity to everything except beach which was not very attractive to us because of infant child travelling with us. All amenities were found in very good state, clean rooms, very good service. If you prefer swim-off suite we advice to book it upfront before arriving to the resort since upgrade in the resort is insanely expensive. Buffet food is a bit limited in variety but always freshly ma [... read more]id, no line-ups, sufficient selection for everyone's taste. A la carte restaurants: we advise only steakhouse and Asian cousin, two others are on open air and they have very long waiting time. Perhaps, you may have different experience.

Royalton Bavaro Resort and Spa: Good resort

Very clean and well maintained. Food was average, difficult to book reservations for restaurants but only because we were a bigger group. Not many activities for kids other than the pools. Beach was excellent.

Melia Punta Cana Beach Wellness Resort Adults: Lush resort

The grounds and beach were the best about this resort. It is a huge resort with the lobby and restaurants at front and beach and pools a cart ride away. We were located at the beach which was handy because chairs were taken by 730. Food was just okay. Service was good. One thing that really surprised me was the amount of smoking and vaping, young and old! Weather was great. Probably would not return, there are better in the DR.

Royalton Hideaway Punta Cana: Overpriced and overrated

The good - clean, wonderful mattress and room, superb bar service, lovely beach. The happy greeting every morning from coffee lady in hideaway. Breakfast at Dorado The desserts And the rest - - - 60 mins wait at airport for nobody missing. 60 minute drive in horrendous traffic. Nobody to show us to our building in the dark in spite of paying diamond club. Butler - supposedly our "man friday" was like a ghost at the end of the phone. But turned up when we were leaving - of course. Abominable  [... read more]food at restaurants. Hostess at Mexicana shouted at us for not sitting in the corner as she wanted. Two disgusting, inedible meals at Dorado. Two others at Hunter but too dark to see food. Stick to the buffet - at least you can see what you are eating. Final crowning glory - sick now since Friday morning and 4 hours in emergency last night Advice if you really are set on going - go Hideaway and steer well away from Diamond and Restaurants.

Secrets Playa Esmeralda Resort and Spa: Lots of room for improvement

Pros: beautiful facility and pools. Friendly staff. One of the nicest beaches in the Caribbean. Cons: Obvious lack of supervisory level of attention to detail, to ensure the small details that make a holiday special are not overlooked. Room was not completely ready even though we were a late day arrival. Room was missing amenities that were advertised, and that we heard from other guests had been supplied to them. Pool area for Preferred clients is completely enclosed by day beds, so th [... read more]at anywhere else you sit you are behind a wall of cabanas with no view of pool. Impossible to secure a cabana unless you are prepared to get up at 4:30 am to place towels. Restaurants are incredibly slow during dinner hour. 2-3 hours Either you plan to eat, or do a show. Impossible to accomplish both. Outside dining is very loud, as the restaurants all encircle the nightly outdoor entertainment area. Loud thumping music while you may be expecting a quiet romantic dinner. Not happening! No control of migration of guests from Dreams resort. Many were using the pool and amenities of the preferred Secrets side. The 90 minute drive from the airport is bad enough, but the provided transportation leaves much to be desired. Driver going far too fast given traffic and road conditions. White knuckle drive while driver was using cell phone and passing vehicles in an extremely reckless manner. Would we return? NO

Barcelo Bavaro Palace: Needs work

We don’t have any hot meals. Food was always cold at any restaurant we went. Also was unable to communicate with any staff as they didn’t understand English and no one to ask that could help us. I wouldnt return to this resort.

Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana: Best of the best

We have been to over 15 all inclusive resorts, including Sandals Antigua and this was the absolute best. The service, food, pools, activities were all amazing! We loved the private community of Cap Cana and the proximity to the airport. The beach itself was stunning, although the water was a little murky from the sargassum this time of year. Cannot recommend this resort enough!

Bahia Principe Escape Aquamarine: We love Aquamarine

Second time in 6 months that we’ve gone to Aquamarine. We enjoy it quite a bit. Rooms are great and clean. Great food with lots of selection. Staff is friendly and helpful. We spent our time at the pool and had a fun relaxing time. Weather was great.

Occidental Caribe: Nice Resort

Staffs are very politely and respectful. Pools are clean and well maintained. The Beach is clean and well cared. Foods are really tasty and so many choices to choose. Desserts are superb and also fruits are always fresh.

Dreams Cap Cana Resort and Spa: Not for beach people

The resort is nice, the pools are nice, but the beach is not. We did go in the off season during November. As for the beach, even after all the seaweed was finally removed access to the water was poor with coral everywhere

Secrets Playa Esmeralda Resort and Spa: Beautiful resort - terrible service - terrible food

Although the grounds and room where beautiful - the staff could not speak English. We waited for up to 4hrs in line to get into restaurants and even when we did we never got 3/4hrs of what we ordered, and when the food came it was cold. Many people we spoke with were very upset and the amenities, some even went as far as to rent a car and drive into town which was 1.5hrs to get some food. When we arrived the hounded us to take a presentation to buy into there preferred packages and were extre [... read more]mely rude (Virginia) and called me low life if you didn't purchase it. We purchased this resort to be children free and there were children from Dreams resort running around. In all we had the worst vacation. Also, our transfers didn't come to pick up up at the resort which resulted in us paying 280.00 USD to get back to the resort. I would not recommend this resort to anyone for now. Maybe in a few years when they have staff and better food it might be better. I am looking for compensation for the money we put out of our pocket.

Secrets Cap Cana: Awesome resort

There was nothing negative to say about our hotel. The staff was amazing. The resort was amazing. There was always something to do. The service was outstanding. Food was awesome. The resort was clean. The staff made sure that we were well taken care of.

Riu Palace Macao: out of 15 times in D.R. this is the #1 top hotel weve been to

There is really nothing one can say negative, from check in, changing rooms because of my back, no fault of theirs. no line ups for anything the newly renovated place seems to run with ease, no bugs, no seaweed...super clean, service for pool drinks or dinner was impeccable. My only suggestion would be the house wine selection has much to be desired.

Dreams Royal Beach Punta Cana: Beautiful resort amazing

Returned from a sister vacation and had an excellent time. From the time you walk into the lobby you will be amazed with all the beautiful foliage, took our breath away. All the staff are outstanding and will go out of their way to ensure you are having an excellent time. The pool was amazing, the food out of the world, no issues what so ever. Love this resort and will be returning in March for our third time. The only issue are the patio doors do not have handles to open from the outsi [... read more]de, which is a struggle for people that do not have strength to push on the glass to open.

Sunscape Dominican Beach: 5 Stars !

We loved our week at Secrets Tides Punta Cana. The resort was so clean and well kept. Staff was professional, attentive, happy to help and plentiful. You could always find someone to assist you if needed. Drinks were served in glasses and were of great quality - bars were never far away. Our room - a swim out with butler service was beautiful appointed and had multiple lighting options throughout the room and bluetooth speakers in the ceiling that we could play our own music from. Room Service [... read more] delivered on time and were accurate and hot upon delivery. Our butler was named Milcaides (Micky) and he was fabulous. He was a terrific help to my partner who planned a wedding proposal while we were there. Micky played a big part in helping to make it a very memorable occasion for us. He was so attentive, personable and genuinely wanting our stay to be the best possible. The entertainment was good - lots of activities throughout the day to participate in. Evening live entertainment and then shows. We didn't stay for any of the shows, but they looked to be well presented in a very nice theatre area with plenty of seating. This was not a "party" resort. There was a DJ who played music throughout the day, but it wasn't crazy loud or obnoxious. Evening parties/shows ended by 11, with people being able to stay up and enjoy the lobby bar later into the evening if they chose. Restaurants were decorated very nicely, food was delicious and menus had lots of options at every restaurant. We were extremely pleased with the whole vacation. Knowing we set the bar quite high after this trip for future vacations to measure up to. It was a romantic, relaxing and thoroughly enjoyed vacation in the DR. Don't hesitate to book it!

Riu Bambu: Not recommended

Let me start by saying i've been to this hotel several time. This trip however was possibly the worst. The rooms are old, the fridge was leaking. Ants are everywhere in the rooms. I had to change two days in. Less ants however still the same. I cannot even describe how horrible the food was. All the meat and sea food products were all over cooked. Basically, it was the same food being served over and over and over again, for the full seven days that I was there. On the upside, the team working a [... read more]t the hotel were fantastic. The level of service received by the service staff at the front desk and also in the dining room was beyond reproach. They were the only bright side of my trip.
