Bahia Principe Grand San Juan: Had an amazing time!

The room was very clean- working AC, fresh towels, water and beer everyday and hot showers. Some of the rooms are far from the main area but they have carts they can drive you on, otherwise a walk never hurts you during an all inclusive. The food was fantastic, lots of variation. The buffet changed every night and the al cartes were fancy and delicious. Best food I have had at an all inclusive. (I have been to Cuba, Jamaica and Mexico). The beaches were small but the water was warm. Ther [... read more]e were three pools but most people tended to hangout around the big main one. My only complaint was that the pool was closed 2 days due to "child accidents" but not much can be done about that. We did the 27 famous waterfall excursion and hike. It was beautiful and I would highly recommend it if you like exercise and adventure. Overall, our experience was fantastic. Everyone was very friendly (and Canadian). The service was also very nice and efficient. I would definitely recommend this resort.

Blau Natura Park Resort: Dont waste your money

The grounds were pretty and the food was good however the entertainmemt was lacking, dull and repeatative. Also the rooms were is very rough shape and the upgrade rooms werent much better for the money

Iberostar Waves Punta Cana: Great Vacation!

Our trip, from start to finish, was great! The rooms were clean and well-stocked, the food was very good and the pools and beach were awesome! Mignolia served us at the buffet almost everyday and made mealtimes very pleasant! Everything was easily accessible and many food and bar options available all day and night! All the staff at the resort were very friendly and accommodating! We’ll be back:)

Royalton CHIC Punta Cana: CHIC is chic!!

I was very pleased with CHIC. So clean. Well organized. The room was more than I expected. Super modern. Super clean. The beds were as comfortable as my bed at home. The staff were so friendly and always asking if we needed anything. I usually worry about eating at the resorts in the Carribean but this resort was a jewel. The food was tasty and always fresh. I’ve been to some resorts that have flies in the buffet area. I didn’t see one the whole week I was there. We loved the Steak house whe [... read more]re they cooked on a wood burning grill. Steaks were cooked to perfection and so tender. The Italian restaurant was also very good, with a variety of pastas or pizza cooked also in a wood burning oven which made the food so flavourful. The only downside I would say is that the Moroccan restaurant was not great. Service was slow the night we went. We only went once as the food was not to our liking. We left before the dessert was brought as we were tired of just waiting. Most nights there were never line ups to get in as it was for the Italian and Steakhouse. They also had a sushi restaurant which never seemed to be very busy. I would recommend perhaps a Japanese Teppanyaki. Just wish it was on the Carribean side with calmer waters and soft white sand and not the Atlantic which was so rough we could not go in once. But overall a most enjoyable week.

IFA Villas Bavaro Beach Resorts: Ifa bavaro BEACH with no beach

The resort itself is great, my room was 1247, far from everything, (15 m walk)but we didnt mind, was big modern and clean. Ala carts were nothing special. Buffet always had a line. Pizza bar was awesome. Anamation was best ever. Generally food is good. A LOT OF CONSTRUCTION...! TOTALLY OBSTRUCTED VIEW OF BEACH, THE BEACH IS WHAT WE PAY FOR RIGHT!?

Royalton CHIC Punta Cana: Chic Punta Cana

This was our third time going. We really enjoyed it. We were upgraded to Diamond Club. The people were amazing.. Restaurants were great All except the Tangine. Indian food. The service was bad. Waiter almost slipped by our table due to water on floor and kept telling me to be careful. Would not send anyone to clean it up.Had to ask for our wine after we were served. Usually before you recieve meal they serve bread but did not get any. Dessert took 15 mins.Restaurant was not busy.

IFA Bavaro Village: Worst experience ever!

Grounds were beautiful, beach was lovely, food was great. CUSTOMER SERVICE was the WORST I have ever experienced. We had to change rooms because our shower door fell off! New room? Toilet tank leaked all over bathroom, patio door ( we were on the ground floor) did not lock, door to our room did not work properly it took 3-4 minutes of jiggling to enter and leave our room. Then the toilet clogged, after 8 calls to front desk and then demanding to speak to manager they unclogged the toilet and B [... read more]LAMED us!!! Toilet clogged again sane day and they did nothing, we had no FUNCTIONING TOILET FOR LAST TWO DAYS OF OUR STAY, not to mention the unsafe slippery bathroom floor! At 3pm check out time they were actually at our door at 2:59 pm telling us to leave!!! I have never been so happy to leave a resort.

Sunscape Bavaro Beach: Good bang for the buck

First time at this resort and we enjoyed our time. Most staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooms were pretty clean and serviced everyday. Beach/pools were great. Everything was so close together there was never a far walk anywhere. Food was pretty good, a la cartes were great, especially the japenese (We ate there a couple of times). Sometimes as you walked to and from you could smell sewage, but not for too long. overall , great trip. would recommend.

Cayo Levantado Resort: Almost perfect

Luxurious, well-maintained, scrupulously clean property. Wonderful staff. Food is plentiful, varied, and beautifully presented. Ranges in quality from superb to not-so-great, but is mostly quite good. Definitely no worries about bacteria or parasites. Pools and beach are terrific. Beds are a little on the hard side.

VH Gran Ventana Beach Resort: 100% Amazing resort!!!

Very simple. The entire resort was amazing from: rooms, bed, grounds, food, internment, staff, beach, cleanliness, activities, etc...nothing bad to. Had a amazing holiday and would return in a heart beat. Promoting this resort to all friends and coworkers.

Punta Cana Princess: Punta Cana Princess - Feb 9 - 23, 2018

This was our eighth trip to the Punta Cana Princess (PCP) and, as usual, found it like coming home. There is not much turn over in staff, so it's like being with family when you are there. Felix does an amazing job on the beach and at the Mare Nordstom (the beach side restaurant). Luisa and Kenia are top notch waitresses/bar tenders and deliver with a personable attitude. Emilio at the lobby bar is also very personable and a lot of fun too. The food there is great and there is always s [... read more]omething for everyone, even if you tend to be a little more selective in your dining choices. The furniture in the lobby really needs to be addressed. I can see that they have tried to take care of the limited seating options there by bringing in additional tables and chairs; however, sitting on a plastic fold up chair during cocktail hour or for the shows is extremely uncomfortable, and the big sagging outdated wicker furniture really has to go. One thing I did discover this year that disturbs me is the fact that Housekeeping Supervisors have the freedom to enter your room and look through your belongings (i.e. the number of toothbrushes, the type of clothing and shoes, etc.) to determine how many people are actually staying in a particular room. I find this invasive and after eight years, pretty much uncalled for. I feel that should the housekeeper assigned to a room notice something amiss, THEN it should be brought to the attention of their supervisor. Now with that being said, I don't know if a majority of all inclusive resorts have this policy, but this is the first time we have encountered it and those I have asked have never come across it in their travels. All-in-all it is a wonderful adults only resort geared toward couples and not hookups. If you're looking for a relaxing get away with your significant other, then I would recommend the PCP. I plan on returning in February 2019.

Barcelo Bavaro Beach: good value

WELL KEPT, VERY CLEAN, WISH THEY WOULD HAVE SMOKING AREAS AS PEOPLE SMOKE EVRY WHERE WITH NO REGARD TO NON SMOKERS. FOOD IS GOOD, VERY FRIENDLY SERVICE. NO WIFI AVAILABLE FOR THE WEEK WE WERE THERE. very windy week for the beach

Bahia Principe Escape Ambar: very nice (too big)resort

When we arrived at the airport and cleared customs, we were directed to bus #9 . I was displeased that we had to wait sitting in the bus for a whole hour before the bus actually moved to go to the resort....I find this totally unacceptable... When you get arrive after a long flight, customers are understandably impatient to get to their hotel and being held up for an hour, shows a severe lack of customer orientation....In previous years for other resorts, the wait was an acceptable 15 minut [... read more]es The grounds are very well maintained...the walks were always spotless... The pool was cleaned every day and there were a lot of lawn chairs and umbrella's(palapas).... The restrooms(banos) have attendants cleaning them all day....You have to get to the pool early to reserve a good spot but then this is normal for this type of resort... The buildings are 3 stories so you have to expect some stairs....the rooms were cleaned without fail every day...some of the buildings are somewhat far from the beach...The common rooms are spacious, well lit and the waitresses keep the drinks flowing...Too often the music is the boring typical repetitive carribean sounds (that I don't like) Just don't expect rock and roll more than once a week. The staff all over the resort appreciate tips.....most people give out US dollar bills.... They have many "gourmet restaurants e.g..Mexican, japanese, mediterranean, italian etc....The food and the service in these is exemplary, the atmosphere pleasant and I would recommend them yet the buffets and the food they serve therein is beyond reproach . In closing, I found this resort way too big and I would select a different resort if I return to Punta Cana...

Bahia Principe Explore Punta Cana: Great resort

The resort was amazing. The grounds were very clean, public area was very inviting, rooms were always kept clean, the food was always very goods with a good variety, then entertainment was also good by could have been more entertaining or a better variety.

Barcelo Bavaro Beach: Amazing resort

We have been at the adult only for 5 or 6 years in a row, we love the staff and resort. Very big resort if you want too be entertained an can also be quiet if you stay in the adult only. You pick what you want! Beaufitful Bavaro Beach! My husband also loves the Sport Bar can go for wings anytime. Will go again!

Bahia Principe Explore El Portillo: Wonderful experience and great resort

We enjoyed our room so close to all the amenities. We could listen to the music from our patio. We were concerned about noise there but at 11 pm all was quiet. Maid service was great and never did we need to wait for them to clean the room. They seem to work around our schedule and rooms were cleaned when we got back. So grateful to Josephina that she ensured we had our drinks ready prior to dinner. Alta Gracia was an amazing woman. Always entertaining.

Thank you for a great experience, Jim & Michael

Bahia Principe Explore Legend: Excellent beach, very good resort

The highlight of this resort is the beach. No rocks, fun waves. Very easy to get a lounge chair - no need to wake up early. Resort is beautiful and spotless. Food is average to very good. Nothing bad but nothing excellent.

Alsol Del Mar: Lovely Quiet Resort

Food & Service excellent. Pool & Swim-up Bar excellent. No Beach to really go for a walk! Lacking entertainment show at night! Should be free to go to sister resort, not a taxi fee! This is a great resort for Seniors to relax and enjoy!!!

Barcelo Bavaro Palace: Lots of things to do!!

This hotel was big but not too big. It has lots of things to keep the adults and kids entertained. Bowling, golf, mini golf, laser tag, escape room, casino etc. Lots of water sport activities. The food was good, and the beach is close to all the pools. The layout of the resort is very nice. I would recommend this hotel to all ages.

Bahia Principe Explore Punta Cana: Great resort

We go down to the Dominican every year and this hotel was the cleanest and best taken care of that I can remember. The beach was well taken care of and people always raking up any seaweed that came ashore. The food was good and the staff was super. The evening shows were very well put on and excellent entertainers. The only draw back was the housekeeping, where we had to call to get our room cleaned and they repeatedly forgot to leave enough towels or facecloths or restock the fridge. We pa [... read more]id the extra $30 per person for the royal gold club and thought these things should not have happened and would reconsider paying the extra again if we revisited this hotel in the future.
