Bahia Principe Explore Esmeralda: Luxury resort !

We spent 5 nights at luxury Esmeralda resort, everything was perfect, the room, the restaurants, the the palm trees beach landscape The people working at resorts were very nice and kind The only cons thing was the party noise until 11:00 pm

JOIA Bavaro by Iberostar: Outstanding resort

This was by far the nicest resort we have stayed in out of the 30+ so far. Top shelf liquor, excellent meals, beautiful grounds. The butler was so helpful…shout out to Cofè! We recommend this for couples looking for quiet atmosphere!

Secrets Royal Beach: Nice resort

This resort is pretty well laid out. The rooms were nice, I was preferred so I’m not sure if all The rooms are the same. The staff at this resort are top notch, the staff at the preferred bar are amazing. The only place were the resort let me down was some of the food. The Bluewater Grill and Olio was the best. I would return to this resort.

Dreams Macao Beach Punta Cana: Great Resort!

Absolutely 100% recommend. This hotel surpassed all of our expectations. Pool side service was amazing, rooms were very clean, restaurants and buffet all had great food. We stayed at the Preferred Club and also highly recommend this upgrade - very much worth it! The following staff went over and above - Moises & Geisy (Preferred Club Pool), Nairoby & Mariela (Preferred Club Bar). The entertainment staff were also amazing - especially Baby Face, El Teacher and at the buffet look for Franciso an [... read more]d Rudy - all absolutely made sure we had a great time on vacation!

Bahia Principe Escape Aquamarine: Beautiful Resot

The grounds of this resort were beautiful and very clean . The resort staff worked very hard at keeping the grounds clean and well maintained. If we had an issue or request for something the staff would accommodate us quickly and efficiently. The buffet always had a great selection of food to eat .

Bahia Principe Escape Ambar: Wonderful Resort

Visited the Luxury Ambar May 3, 2025 to May 10, 2025. Had a group of 13 for 50th birthday celebrations and had a corner swim up. We had an absolute blast. The staff was amazing and went well over my expectations with their service. We were luck to get a room dead center of the resort and had very short walks to the pool/beach area and to the lobby. For what we needed and wanted this resort came through and created fantastic memories. We will be coming back again!! 10 of 10 in my books.

Sunscape Coco Punta Cana: Disappointing Stay at Sunscape Coco Punta Cana – Not Worth the Cost

I stayed at Sunscape Coco Punta Cana for 7 nights and unfortunately, this resort did not meet the standards expected from a Hyatt-affiliated property. We were “upgraded” to the Adults Only section, only to be told upon arrival that children are now allowed there — something not reflected on the website. Had I booked directly, I would have paid a premium for inaccurate information. We accepted the upgrade because of promised perks like a private pool and better proximity to amenities. Sadly, t [... read more]he experience quickly went downhill. The fire alarm in Building #1 went off multiple times every single day from Sunday to Thursday — often as early as 5 AM or late into the evening. Staff told us it was a false alarm caused by someone possibly vaping or smoking, but it continued for days with no resolution. This created not only constant disruption but a serious safety concern — what if there had been a real emergency? The air conditioning in our room barely worked, and the fixed shower head had very low pressure (luckily the handheld one was better). For a resort at this price point, these basic amenities should not be an issue. Many à la carte restaurants were closed (low season), yet no effort was made to adjust the dining experience. Even the disco required you to pay for drinks, and drinks from other bars weren’t allowed. Isn’t this supposed to be an “all-inclusive” resort? The buffet food was mediocre at best, aside from the fresh bread and egg station at breakfast. The beach, shown beautifully in photos online, was completely covered in seaweed and not being maintained. I understand this can be seasonal, but I also expect a resort to make an effort to keep it usable. There were some positives — the resort is visually stunning, the spa is excellent, and the coffee huts are a great touch. I also appreciated the kindness of a staff member from the medical team who gave helpful advice without pressuring us into a paid consultation. That said, I would not return to this resort — even if it were free. I overheard several other guests echoing similar frustrations, and it’s clear the quality has declined. This is not a 4-star resort; it barely earns 3 stars based on our experience. I am sharing this review because guests deserve better — especially when paying a premium for what should be a relaxing, seamless experience.

Ocean Blue and Sand: Ocean Blue and Sand

We visited this hotel for the first time and were very impressed with facilities, room size and condition, beach, restaurants, entertainment. We arrived in the middle of the night, around 1 am and had chance to have drinks and food in the restaurant that was open. The entire resort had light under every palm tree. Beautiful resort, extremely clean and well maintained.

El Beso Adults Only at Ocean El Faro: Very nice

Was maybe one of the best all-inclusive resorts I’ve been to and I’ve been to over 50. The service was excellent. I didn’t do a lot of the restaurants but the room service was excellent and also very fast. The pool could’ve been a little bit cleaner, but the lobby in the main lobby is absolutely beautiful

Caribe Deluxe Princess: Great Resort

Pool is clean, beach is great. Good variety of food and a la carte restaurants. Love the nature habitat. Rooms are pretty decent. Never had an issue with air conditioner or hot water. Depends on where are you in the resort, some staff do not speak english.

Riu Palace Bavaro: Great resort!

Returned from a week's vacation at RIU Palace Bavaro where we had an amazing time. The resort is super clean and spread out nicely. The staff is very friendly and helpful, even fighting to have you sit in their section at breakfast haha! The food was good with lots of choice, I especially liked the meals at Krystal and Zen. We had a great time sitting at the tables in the pool meeting people from other places. The rooms were nicely decorated and laid out well. Of course the beach was specta [... read more]cular with lots of loungers and plenty of trees to grab shade. I would highly recommend this resort!

Bahia Principe Explore Punta Cana: Outstanding service and amenities

We had a great time at Bahai Principe Grand Punta Cana. The staff are warm, friendly and very willing to accommodate their guests. We will most likely return some time in the future. The weather was always nice even though it rained off and on for a couple days

Adults Only Club at Lopesan Costa Bavaro: No so adult only!

Good location, nice and clean beach. Very good buffet. Mexican and Asian very good, steakhouse and French not dependable. One evening food , next time everything we ordered duck and lamb way overcooked. Adult only pool 2 days we could not get any chairs, music is always blasting in restaurants and at the pool . Could not control heat/AC so room was always too cold.

Bahia Principe Escape Ambar: Girls Trip 2025!

Our annual girls trip spent at the Luxury Ambar! Check in was easy. Our rooms were ready, which was welcomed especially after a long travel day. The reservation desk was very accommodating, given there were four of us travelling, we requested the same building and rooms close to each other, which they were happy to assist with, other resorts that we've stayed at not so much!

Daily activities by the pool were great. Our server Desiree was amazing always checking in to make sure we were well taken care of and hydrated. Yes we even had water once in a while.? The dinner reservations were a bit of challenge, Diana at the front desk was extremely helpful and made our reservations for us. The restaurants were good, the only criticism I would have is the food was lukewarm and not as hot as we would have liked. The buffets were great always more than enough for breakfast and lunch and ample food options. Raphe was our server at lunch everyday, he is amazing! Always greeted us with smile and made us feel so special, he was just as sad as we were on our last day. The entertainment in the lobby bar in the evenings was wonderful, from singers to karaoke we enjoyed them all. There were themed parties by the pool that catered to the younger crowd, so there is something for everyone! Thank you DR we had an amazing time!

Riu Palace Macao: Paradise

Louise Endean was instrumental in suggesting our day trip with the squirrel monkeys which we thoroughly enjoyed! The hotel was always clean, the food was exceptional and the beach was free of seaweed and beautiful blue!

Riu Palace Punta Cana: Fantastic Resort

Everything about this report was absolutely fantastic and the staff was incredible. No complaints at all. Only iffy thing was room service food but you can definitely go to the buffet and sports bar for any snacks.
