Casa Marina Reef Resort: Amazing Resort
Great service as always. That's our 6th time there. Highly recommended. The renovated rooms are awesome. The food was plentiful and fresh. Very clean and safe resort. A big thanks to Kevin Dupuis at tripcentral for the great service. We'll be returning in March.
Whala Bayahibe: Awesome memories
Whala Bayahibe is one of the best hotel we ever been. Food staff rooms was actually excellent. The swiming pools awesome.Everything was very clean. Everyday really good enertainment. We really can't say a bad word.
Riu Republica: Best Resort
Been to this resort twice in 2018 May and October we love this Resort because it’s super clean food is amazing rooms are very spacious and the beach is wide long and clean not too mention the many cabanas and lounge chairs at the beach to go around . This resort is well staffed and most of them speak English. They are super friendly and we really enjoyed the night entertainment shows. Must mention no mosquitoes at either time we were there. Unlike Cuba. Now planning my 3 rd trip back for sprin [... read more]
Majestic Colonial Punta Cana Beach Resort: fantastic
a fabulous resort, this was the first all inclusive that ive ever been to. would definitely return. everything was beyond my expectations,food, service, etc. the only recommendation that I would make is that as a VIP guest I would have liked that the hotel provided bag be given at checkin rather than having to ask for it.
Bahia Principe Explore Esmeralda: Resort is beautiful
All the staff were very friendly, and helpful. The food was good , only problem was to get into the lei cart restaurant. A lot of them were always booked . The beach was amazing. Our transit representatives were always very helpful. The only real disappointment was with the nightly intertainment, the set up was terrible. You couldn’t see anything, it was either by the pool or in the lobby. The shows were not anywhere as nice as I have seen in the past elsewhere. For such a big reso [... read more]
Grand Palladium Select Bavaro: Very nice resort. Beaches and water 2nd to none.
Clean resort. Food good and lot's of choices. Japanese and Mexican a la carte restaurants the best. All staff very friendly. Rooms needed some maintenance - pull out bed broken, electrical plugs loose and not hold plug, fridge not cold. Staff fixed issues over a few days. Very helpful. Overall rating would be a 4 1/2 because of the required room maintenance and some a la carte restaurants not the best.
Occidental Caribe: Wonderful!
We had a great time, the staff was exceptional... the beach was beautiful! The pizzeria was a hidden gem and we had ala carte food all nights but one :) Japanese was definitely the best and most fun, the staff was amazing there too!
Bahia Principe Explore Punta Cana: Nice resort !!
Bahia Principe Punta Cana was a nice family resort with beautiful grounds and amazing beach and activities. Easy to access the trams which ran all the time. Service was hit and miss. Some staff went out of the way to serve you and some did not. We went to a couple a la carts and they were just average. Rooms were spacious and nice and we stayed in the Golden section which had the rooms near the beach which was nice but not worth the extra dollars in my opinion. Getting a drink was never a [... read more]
VIK Hotel Arena Blanca: Good resort
A pretty good resort for the price we paid. Very good food, 4-5 various fresh juices every breakfast, free wi-fi in the lobby, comfortable rooms, a lot of place on the beach under umbrellas. The only lack is that the beach in this particular place is more narrow than in front of the other hotels, but it is long enough to place everybody.
Riu Republica: Couple's Getaway
We stayed at the Riu Republica, Punta Cana, from Oct 11-21st. Resort was nice, grounds were immaculate. Our room was great, we stayed in room 2080. Food was good, never went hungry. The Italian was the best restaurant there. Buffet had plenty of selection. Staff wasn't overly friendly, but we made the best of it. Maid service lacked even with $2 USD tips daily. Also left $2 for the guy to do our coffee and drinks, that service wasn't over the top either. Overall we enjoyed our vacation, but wil [... read more]
Cofresi Palm Beach and Spa Resort: Disappointed
Came second time and felt the difference in service, room with only one broken chair, many small and not small problems with bathtub, light, noise air conditioning, bad smell and insects . But the most disappointing thing that when we arrived at 10 PM we could not find any opened restaurant or snack bar and went to sleep hungry and nobody cared about us.
Ocean Blue and Sand: Nice and quiet!
The hotel its self is very nice...older but still kept it very clean. We went in October which is great because it's not packed and service is everywhere. Only cons... beach is short, and an upgrade to privilege isn't worth the costs. We were brought to a VIP breakfast on our first morning to which turned into "time share" type chat...60mins turned into 2.5hours. To which H10 wants you to get out a loan with them and travel within there resorts...ahhh no. Aside from that we'll more than lik [... read more]
Iberostar Waves Costa Dorada: Amazing Resort
The resort is well kept, rooms very clean, grounds are spectacular. Lived the beach, able to walk a fair distance and no one was harrassing you to purchase anything. Enjoyed seven days of relaxation. Food and drink was very good. Booked three alacart options, we were disappointed with the Mediterranean restaurant, but each to their own. Staff friendly and helpful. Close to town Will be returning.
Cofresi Palm Beach and Spa Resort: Good Resort
All in all we had a great time first I will start with the good and then with the bad. The hotel rooms were lovely. It took 35 minutes to get hot water but no big deal. The bed was super comfy and they stocked our fridge with alcohol and water the first night The food was quite tasty but before coming I thought we would have multiple access to restaurants which wasn't the case. There was usually only 1 open each night Pools and beach was beautiful And the staff. Wow did they ever mak [... read more]
Catalonia Royal Bavaro: Fantastic trip!
I love this resort, we went last year and it was beautiful. I’ve never been on vacation and this resort really put the level of excellence to the top. The staff was great and when we came back this year they remembered us which was such a wonderful feeling that our of so many people they see all year long they remembered us!! We will be going back in two years
Bahia Principe Explore Punta Cana: Fantastic Resort
It was so beautiful there. Lots of pools, great food and evening entertainment. I would recommend this resort to all my friends. The only thing that was not up to par were the sale ladies in the resort store. They were always on their cell phones and were not very friendly. Other than that a 6 star resort.
Bahia Principe Explore Esmeralda: Beautiful Resort.
We had a great stay there the grounds are magnificent,the staff are first class,the food was average at the buffets but excellent at the a la carte restaurants. When booking we asked if we could have a first floor room and also mentioned that this trip was for our 49 th Anniversary,understanding of course that these requests are not guaranteed,when we got there we were given a 3rd floor room and although every second room on our floor had Happy Anniversary or Happy birthday banners [... read more]
Barcelo Bavaro Beach: Oh What a Week
Okay so I travelled alone for the first time and the guests and staff made my staff incredible. The room was oceanfront and had an incredible view of the beach. It was far away enough from the pool that it was quiet for daytime siestas, but close enough that if I forgot anything it wasn't a long walk. The room was clean and cool and well kept. Not the usual musty beach smell at all. The food was better than expected. A wide range and lots to choose from,. The grounds are well maintained a [... read more]
Iberostar Waves Costa Dorada: Awesome
This resort was amazing grounds are well kept food is excellent staff are friendly rooms are nice and very well clean the pool is a little deep front lobby is huge and beautiful the beach is well kept and plenty of lounges
Sunscape Coco Punta Cana: Birthday Vacation to Be Live
Just returned on Sunday from a week at Be Live Collection. It was my third time to this resort, and the staff at the hotel was amazing. I contacted the hotel early to reserve a restaurant on the day of our arrival for my birthday dinner. Usually everything is booked and you can only book two days in advance. We also had reservations for the Japanese habachi show, Mexican and Brazilian.. The steakhouse and Brazilian were the best. Also, the check-in staff managed to get my entire group in the sam [... read more]
