Viva Heavens by Wyndham: Very nice Resort

The resort was very clean & the staff & entertainment was very good.The staff at the pool kept us entertained & were very pleasant & warm towards us.The beach area was wonderful & lots of chairs available.Having terrific weather also made our stay much more satisfying.This was our 1st all inclusive resort and we will probably be back.

Viva Tangerine by Wyndham: Great Stay!

The overall hotel was well kept , other than the terrible water pressure in our hotel room. Rooms were clean , maids came everyday to clean. The entertainment every night never disappointed.Going on the beach was annoying do to the vendors. Food was alright , a different country or theme every night and lots of variety. All the staff was very nice.

Viva V Samana by Wyndham: Love this place - even better 2nd time around!

The grounds are beautiful - rooms modern and clean - beach beautiful. Food is quite good - you can always find something delicious. We have gone two years in a row and it is HUMID. Expect to sweat. Love that there is no towel card, and you can always exchange for a fresh one. The vibe rooms are worth it.

Punta Cana Princess: Resort is Okay

We stayed at the Punta Cana Princess for 10 days, the resort is okay but I don't think we will return. The resort needs to make some changes such as free WiFi throughout, not just in the lobby, it is almost impossible to get on in the evening when everyone else is trying to link in. They do offer it in the rooms for a ridiculous price, from what I hear is no better than the lobby. Pool lounge chairs are old and uncomfortable not to mention very hard to get out of. We stayed in the best honey [... read more]moon suite which was nice but on the top floor, they list it as the second floor but is really the third floor and there are 4 flights of stairs. Not good for someone with mobility issues. Food was okay but people did get sick from Mare Norstrom the 24 hour restaurant. No air conditioning in buffet, lobby and most restaurants either. Not much on site so night is boring unless you take the shuttle to the casino which is off site and open to the public not just hotel guests. If you are a beach person you wont want to go in summer months as the seaweed problem is bad. Not the hotels fault but tour operators don't advise on this and its awful. Most reviews indicate Building 5 is the best, I disagree, 4 is the best. Don't pay for ocean view, only one room is ocean view which was ours (5217) and the view is obstructed by large trees and the spa. Seaweed bags are piled under the balcony in #5 and the smell comes up from the drains every time you flush the toilet. At the ocean end of the pool the smell of seaweed is bad as well. I will say the fridge worked great in our room and the staff get a 5 star rating. They were friendly and courteous, Ragsa and Rauole from the buffet were awesome and Nelson at the pool bar was wonderful. It is reasonably priced but in my opinion is not a 5 star resort. It is 4 star at best. By the way the pool is not open until 9 am if you go in earlier than that they will tell you to get out. The workers start at 8 which should be 7 so pool can open at 8. 9 is ridiculous.

Marien Puerto Plata Hotel: It’s great when I upgraded. Like to have cleaning service little better and needs to put more water then rest off the drink.

This was my Second visit and I love to go again to.last time we have 10 rooms and this we have 3 rooms booked. We all planing begger group next time. I like use same resort in Mexico to. But next I love to try VIP fasality

The Eurostars Grand Cayacoa: Amazing getaway !

From the moment you arrive at the top of the hill where the resort is located you are greeted with an amazing view of the downtown area and the beaches! The Hotel is filled with friendly staff and they make you feel like family. The dinner choices are amazing. To get to the beach there is an elevator that takes you down to this beautiful paradise. Its a small beach area but it makes it feel private. I can't wait to go back for a relaxing getaway

Excellence Punta Cana: Disappointing Experience

I was at Excellence from August 15 to August 25. I was alone there.The first thing I found out is that this resort is not for singles. Great internet access on grounds and rooms even on beach. No buffet restaurant for dinner, you must go to ala-carte restaurant. Some of those restaurants requires dress code and not all are working every day. Service is great and you will be offered drinks everywhere on the pool or beach. But be warned that the staff want tips for the smallest service th [... read more]ey offer you. Forget about sleeping in your room after 8 AM. The staff is so laud in the hallways. For this price I found the place to be disappointing experience.

Excellence El Carmen: Amazing Resort. And great value!

Amazing Resort Food was Great ! Service was excellent Entertained team was simple amazing The beach was terrible because of Mother Nature....flooded with seaweed Would go back anytime and would recommend this Resort to all of you want a fun and relaxing vacation Would first wait for the beaches to clear up in Punta Cana

Excellence Punta Cana: Good resort

Overall the features of the hotel were good however the food was satisfactory. We appreciated that all of the staff made the effort to speak to us in English making our stay more enjoyable. Two of the bar tenders Kendry and Basilio were very helpful and went the extra mile to make us both feel welcomed and well looked after.

Hyatt Vivid Punta Cana: Disappointment Awaited Us.

Unfortunately, we were let down quite a bit on our trip to Dreams Palm Beach Punta Cana. We were attending my cousins wedding, which was a nice event although I felt we were rushed. The entire vacation with over 50 of us there people were sick almost daily, we've since come to realize this is not uncommon on this resort. The staff were friendly although not overly helpful. If you didn't tip accordingly you wouldn't be served promptly or with care. (We are tippers and so this was not an issue for [... read more] us directly but some of our family members had notable issues with this which I witnessed first hand.) The food flavor and display was a 5/10 at best and I have to say I expect more for the price we paid. Room cleanliness was acceptable, nothing special. The beaches while out of control of the resort entirely were completely filled with sargassum seaweed which can be a hazard and while the resort failed to mention it, I immediately did research and found out that it can cause severe skin irritation. Needless to say none of us were in the water at any point. The pools closed early nightly which really was unfortunately especially with not being able to use the beaches. There was a ridiculous amount of construction making it difficult to enjoy any type if relaxation or time at the spa. There was absolutely no entertainment and again for the cost I found this ridiculous. We do travel quite a bit and I can honestly say I would never recommend this resort to anyone. Unfortunately.

Majestic Colonial Punta Cana Beach Resort: Amazing Resort

This hotel was truly amazing, rooms, grounds restaurants were all very clean. I also appreciate them having hand sanitizer at entrance of every restaurants. Foam party was incredible, the staff totally engages the crowd. Everyone needs to experience this. Staff were very friendly and worked hard at entertaining guests. I do however have a few minor complaints, the check in process was very slow, also when requesting staff to bring items to your room, they took extremely long(sometimes having to [... read more] call back). Our group had a few teenage boys, and unfortunately they could not go to the disco because of their ages, yet they did not have a teenage disco. I feel that they need to have more activities for teenagers. The beach is beautiful, but unfortunately had a lot of sea weed. I was informed that it was because of hurricane season.

Riu Republica: Punta Canada!!!

Very popular resort among Canadians, which is great because we are quite friendly if I do say so myself. Resort had everything we wanted and more, popular place for young adults. Staff was exceptional and practiced great hygiene with readily available hand sanitizers near dining halls, ensuring straws were not contaminated and that we had plenty of bottle water and alcohol whenever we needed. Alcohol was not watered down like at most all inclusive resorts. The food was amazing as we did not have [... read more] to make any reservations for the a la carte restaurants and they had 7 to choose from! Normally I get sick and tired of the buffet but I loved the options their breakfast, lunch and dinner buffet had. Would definitely visit Riu Republica again and I am so glad my friend recommended it to me because I am definitely passing the love for this resort forward :)

Barcelo Bavaro Palace: Great Resort with an unbelievable Buffet spread.

We enjoyed our stay at the resort. Was a bit apprehensive after reading some of the 1 star reviews. The resort is large and has a mini shuttle service (train on wheels) within. We decided to walk for most part as the buffet and food was just amazing. Needed to burn the extra calories. Free drinks, number of Pools, a Pirate ship wave pool, beach and also paid guided tours made it a memorable trip. Wouldnt think twice about coming back again.

Riu Republica: Good resort but not 5 stars

Riu Republica is a good hotel for your vacations but if you know about a real All-Inclusive 5 stars resort in the Caribbean Sea... this is not for you. My 4 stars qualification is about rooms, restaurants and food, entertainment and night life, liquor on the bars, and specially for service.

Marien Puerto Plata Hotel: Be-Live Meriden

My Grandson and I had a great 2 weeks at the resort. It was my second time there. the food the staff are all make you feel like family. This time I used the Kids Club and Veronica and Maria were amazing. My Grandson wants to go back and bring his mother he said she would love it. Tracey Oliver and Adrian Oliver

Bahia Principe Explore Turquesa: WOW!

The resort that I went to in the 2nd week of August was Bahia Principe at Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. It was a beautiful resort with a lot of welcoming employees. I would definitely recommend this place to people, and the whole family enjoyed this trip brought to us by tripcentral! ;)

Bahia Principe Explore Turquesa: Greenish environment!

It would have some food at ground floor, sometime tired to go and get food from far away!! Cleaners are very good, they did good job. Don’t make same food at the dining everyday, they mention everyday different country food but looks same food everyday they given!

Bahia Principe Explore Turquesa: Amazing Resort

Very friendly staff with helpful mind. Nice and clean place, you can walk without any fear. But beach shore has lots of sea weeds in. So we are unable to go to the beach. They said this time of the year they have it,

Grand Palladium Punta Cana: Everything and more

I have been to multiple all inclusive resorts and this has to be one of my favourites. From the moment you enter one out of the 3 lobbies, you are welcomed with an amazing view, well kept and friendfly staff. I came with a wedding party, and all of our rooms were equally clean and fully equipped. My only critque is to have more shuttle running every 5 mins because the resort is so vast that walking to the 24 sports bar restaurant could be a bit much once the resturants are closed for prep. Many  [... read more]actitives, clean,fun pools, delicious food and easy access to excursions. I would love to come back and possibility try out one of their upscales room that have a hot tub/pool just steps out the back doors.

TRS Turquesa: Really good, but a few things to improve on

-Hotel grounds really great -Buffet and food 7/10, not bad, but could be better -Got a stomach bug from food or water and spent 3 days of the trip in a local hospital -Beach was 5 out of ten; pretty narrow and no sports on the beach. Seaweed build up on the beach was out of control (not swimmable) -Service was outstanding from our Butler Laura -Swim up pool was amazing -Drinks high end -Entertainment lacking
