Riu Bambu: Beautiful Beach

The Riu Bambu was a very well kept resort. The beach was beartiful and our room was clean so no complaints there. Wifi was hard to access in the lobby. The bartenders could have been a little happier/friendlier. They weren't rude, they just were not happy. The 4 a la cart restaurants were not by reservation and they only had 2 open each night. Even though we didn't have any kids with us we took advantage of the new water park which was free for anyone staying at this resort. Leave your je [... read more]wellery in your room because they won't let you go down the slides with it on. Safer in your room. Again, nice and clean.

Bahia Principe Explore Punta Cana: great family resort

beautiful grounds and walkways good variety at buffets and restaurants.Lots of pools for all ages. waterpark good for small children.although the resort is very big it was easy to find your way around.Great for walking but there are a lot of trams to take you anywhere on the resort.

Majestic Elegance Punta Cana: best place

Majestic Eligance Punta Cana was the best resort in the area clean and spacious rooms,very friendly staff place is full of activities welcome was very warm service was great,we had a reunion party here and i,m glad we chose Majestic Eligance.

Bahia Principe Explore Legend: Pretty disappointed with the food

Everything about the hotel was great, grounds, pool, kids water park. The night shows were amazing the 24 hour service was great and the staff was good. I was very disappointed with the food it was cold, flavorless even the coffee was horrible. I have stayed in other Bahia resorts and I've never had any issues with the food like this resort.

Barcelo Bavaro Palace: great rrsort

Grounds were very well kept and the rooms were clean, the food was very good as well.The servers were very polite and helpful.i would recommend this resort for families with younger kids as they had great pools to accommodate them.Overall we had a great time and enjoyed ourselves at the Barcelo Bavaro Palace.

Bahia Principe Explore Punta Cana: Great Resort (just a small part of a large group of resorts)

Beach was amazing, pools fantastic. We were up early enough that finding a spot on the beach was not a problem. Beach is pretty crowded but there were plenty of palapas for shade (a feature which made so that we could hang out at the beach most of the day - not a lot of the nearby resorts had decent shade and therefore their beaches were much less crowded). We paid a little extra and took a Segway tour which was a lot of fun. Food was good, room was clean and we always felt safe. Nothing  [... read more]extraordinary but all very good. Staff were hit and miss. This may be due to the size of the resort and the lack of connection as there are just too many people and too many staff, but it was definitely something that we noticed. There were a couple of times where we could see and feel their discontentment (again not all but it was the first time we had seen this at a resort to this extent). Overall a great resort and one that I would recommend to others.

Majestic Colonial Punta Cana Beach Resort: One ofthe best in Punta Cana

We had a great time at this resort. -Grounds were immaculate - Buffet had something for everyone. -Staff was friendly and always had some sort of games or entertainment -Make sure to try the Japanese restaurant, and the tenderloin at the Steak House was great also. The only drawback was that you literally had to tip everywhere you went to get service, especially with the maids. We went over spring break, and would probably to avoid that in the future

Riu Republica: I want to go back

I've been on several vacations to the Caribbean over the past several years. i have to say that Riu Republica has to be the finest that i have had the pleasure of attending. The check in staff have been the friendliest by far, the room was awesome and the food was delicious. yes there were some things that i didn't like at the buffet, but isn't there things on your favorite restaurant's menu you don't like too? my only disappointment, cant say a complaint, is that there was no bar or bar servi [... read more]ce on the beach. not a huge deal fro me, but sometimes when your comfy you just don't want to have to get up for a drink- lol overall we loved the time there, i will be going back again

Royalton Punta Cana Resort: Very nice resort

We stayed here during March break, we travel every year during this time. We really enjoyed the Royalton and the waterpark at Memories. The resort was very clean, the rooms were nice. The beach is gorgeous! Lots of chairs and shade. The food is very good at the buffets and most of the dine around restaurants, the Japanese and the steakhouse were excellent. The sports bar has amazing burgers. The one complaint I have was the front desk staff and check-in. When we checked in they told us the hot [... read more]el was sold out and overbooked and that we would have to go to Memories for a few nights. Really??!! How do you overbook a hotel where people are arriving on airplanes with reservations? If I wanted to stay at Memories I would have paid the significantly less money it cost to go there! I paid for the Royalton. We had to go to Memories for 1 night and for this trouble they upgraded us to Diamond Club at the Royalton. I have been travelling for 25 years to the Caribbean and never had that happen before. By talking to other guests during the week we found out they did this to many others.

Hyatt Vivid Punta Cana: Wonderful family vacation at an amazing resort!

We just returned from a 7 day March Trip at Dreams Palm Beach with our two teenagers. The resort was truly wonderful; the food was excellent, accommodations great, resort small and manageable, truly spectacular staff who always had a smile and offered amazing service. The entertainment staff were especially wonderful and we made many new friends who we would love to pay a return visit to see again! I would definitely recommend this resort and would suggest choosing the preferred option as it ma [... read more]de a big difference to our stay!

Bahia Principe Escape Ambar: Luxury Bahia Principe Ambar Blue-Not as quiet as is use to be

Love the resort but it's busier than usual. The Ambar use to be more quiet and romancing. Similar to a Sandals resort. Now, it's still an Adults only but they have on-going classes and dances by the pool, mediocre shows at the lounge and they seem to attract a more rowdy crowd. It has lost it's finesse to call it a "Luxury" resort. Will be looking at other resorts within Punta Cana that caters to Adults Only.

Sunscape Bavaro Beach: not a 4 star

food was good. waiters and waitresses good.[ winston and katherine.] room clean.advertised as a new resort but it was just renovated.beaches and ocean looked great in pictures but a big disappointment. beach was suffering from erosion which made it hard to get to ocean because of incline. ocean had breakers to help prevent erosion but don't know if it helped as ocean floor had many drops. my wife could only swim in the ocean once because of this.we feel air transat should of informed you people  [... read more]of these conditions so we could of made changes. unfortunately other than the weather and food we feel we didn't get our moneys worth

Grand Bavaro Princess: Amazing resort

Beautiful grounds. Love that you didn't have to pre-book the a la Carte restaurants. Amazing food and friendly staff. Beautiful beach and lots of chairs available. Great shows. Loved the Micheal Jackson one.

Sunscape Bavaro Beach: Great Resort

The resort is a clean, new, modernly decorated resort with a most perfect kiddie pool. The drinks were fab, although service was slow as it was March Break and very busy. The buffets offered a variety of healthy options as well as funfare. The à la carte restaurants were good especially the steak house and Asian cuisine. Music was pumping during the day adding to the fun vibe enjoyed by all. The beach unfortunately was a bit of an eye sore although totally swimmable. Overall, we thoroughly enjo [... read more]yed our stay and recommend this resort.

Paradisus Punta Cana: 5 STAR RESORT

This is the nicest and cleanest and friendliest resort we have ever stayed at! Starting at check in, the manager Luis upgraded us to an updated suite in a superior location. Our room was clean, bright and very spacious with a large balcony and a mini fridge that was always restocked with drinks and snacks. The food was excellent and a huge variety and we were given a reservation at all the separate restaurants too, We tried them all. The resort had the largest section of the most beautiful be [... read more]ach that stretched on for miles in both direction. Paradisus had three times the beach front than any other resort on Bavaro. Jose Reyes was the beach attendant and he was exceptional, extremely attentive and so friendly and chatty. There was always a bed (love them) on the beach and lounge chairs by the pool available! This surprised us with it being March Break! At the pool Jose Fernandes kept us busy with dancing lessons and pool exercises. He was friendly and happy and inclusive. The shows at night were excellent, (especially Michael Jackson). We do not have one negative thing to say about the resort. We loved it and would definitely highly recommend it!

Hyatt Vivid Punta Cana: Best trip ever!!

Everything about this place was amazing from the staff to the grounds to the FOOD!!!! I would highly recommended this resort! The beach was beautiful as well. Definitely would go back to this resort again!!!

Grand Bavaro Princess: Breathtaking

This resort was very well kept. The food was delicious and the beach was breathtaking. We upgraded to a suite and was well worth it. It didn't look like upgrading to platimun would have been worth it though. I can't believe how clean and well kept this resort is. We had an amazing time at this resort.

Nickelodeon Hotel Punta Cana: Fun resort for kids, relaxing for parents, despite the unexpected

This resort is immaculate and has lots of fun activities for kids under 10. The food was good, compared to other resorts we've been to. The beach, pool, and AquaNick are all awesome. We had to seek emergency medical care for our son, which resulted in 3 days in the hospital. Even though the medical issue had nothing to do with the resort, we would have appreciated more assistance from the resort and maybe even an acknowledgement of the fact that we lost three days out of our week. We would l [... read more]ike to return another time. The hotel does need to work on service-- restaurants had unpredictable hours and even though staff obviously were trained in being polite and in ending every sentence with "it was my pleasure", the service seemed inauthentic. There definitely seemed to be protocols in place, but the staff would have been more effective if they were able to make decisions themselves instead of always having to check with a manager. This will likely come in time since the resort is so new. Also, the concierge service is not at all helpful and I would have preferred to deal with restaurants and spa myself. The concierges I encountered (with the exception of one good one) made me feel vulnerable, like they were out to "get me" (e.g. Sales pitch for something) The evening entertainment was great and we would have had a wonderful time, were it not for our unfortunate medical issue.

Barcelo Bavaro Palace: Barcelo Bavaro Palace great Resort

Actually no complains. Resort was fantastic. Dinners were great. Buffet were unbelievable. Grounds were well kept Nice beach for walking and swimming. Friendly staff. Wonderful emergency with great friendly doctors. Wonderful lifeguards and security. I really would recommend Barcelo Bavaro Palace

Bahia Principe Explore Punta Cana: Great for families

Hotel was very well maintained and the grounds were in great shape. Lots to do for the kids, especially the water park. A big property, but the trolleys make it so easy to get everywhere. Beach is pristine and water is warm.
