Bahia Principe Escape Aquamarine: Bahia Principe Escape Aquamarine

The hotel was clean, the food was delicious, and the staff was kind (especially Santa the waitress in the main lobby bar/entertainment area who always took care of us). The beach however had a lot of seaweed, which the staff did their best to clean each day. The bathrooms in the hotel rooms were also in pretty bad shape and need renovations.

Bahia Principe Explore Esmeralda: Beautiful Trip

We had a beautiful anniversary trip and made wonderful memories the week we spent here. Beach was stunning, and only minutes from our room. Our first night our air conditioning was broken as we asked several times to have it fixed until we had to go to the main desk. It really upset us as well as a fire alarm going off our first morning there. We addressed these concerns to the front desk and got put into a swim out suite. It meant a lot to us to have our concerns heard and dealt with. The vibe  [... read more]was right, entertainment was great, and food was good. You were never hungry and there were options. Was the food amazing? No. But it’s good and you get by just fine. Drinks were plentiful and the staff was friendly. Nice resort with maybe some miscommunication about how to book the kayaking but that didn’t bother us. We loved it and would definitely return. Thank you for an awesome vacation!

Melia Punta Cana Beach Wellness Resort Adults: BEAUTIFUL PROPERTY!

Just got back from a wonderful 10-day vacation at this awesome resort. Grounds are immaculate, very clean. Same with our room, we were in building 4. Close to gym, pool and beach. Food is the best we've had in 7 trips to the Dominican. Lots of variety. yes, it repeats, but there is something for everyone. Top quality and fresh. Would not recommend staying here if you have mobility issues as alot of walking is required. 13 mins to main lobby and buffet. While golf carts are back and forth, we f [... read more]ound them passing us most of the time as they were full. We will definitely be back!

Melia Punta Cana Beach Wellness Resort Adults: Great week on the beach?️

The resort was lovely, rooms were very clean. Service was excellent; the staff were friendly. We really enjoyed the morning yoga & the foot massages on the beach. It’s a great resort for a relaxing low key holiday. We would definitely recommend it to friends & plan to return.

Sunscape Coco Punta Cana: Great weather

Best part of entire week was the great weather. Sunscape Coco was nice. Nothing to write home about. It is also quite large with 17 buildings with 14 of them on one side of the main pool, buffet and lobby. If you have mobility issues please make sure you request a room in a building close to the lobby/buffet as they do not have golf carts to move people around. I was disappointed by the food. Not much sea food for a resort right on the ocean. But mostly I was disappointed by some of the staff, [... read more] especially the main pool swim-up bar bartenders, and the guy at the main buffet grilling the chicken and beef (center grill). They made us feel like we were bothering them or taking from them even though we tipped generously. Sadly their attitude left a bad taste for us in regards to Punta Cana. Won't be returning there. Having said that the hotel was clean, food was editable, most of the staff was nice and friendly, and the beach was nice.

Riu Bambu: Nice Resort

We went to the Riu Bambu for the beginning of May. It is a medium sized resort in good condition. There were several a-la-cartes, but we found the buffet was the better place to go. Our group of 5 was made up of older adults, 34, 19 and a 7 year old. We all found the resort to be good. Kids entertainment was okay but did not seem to be to present through the day. It probably was more of a day care. The resort had small kid water parks and a much larger one at associated to the adjacent sister re [... read more]sort. There was also an "off resort" disco which was quite amazing. No charge to go and well guarded / supervised. It had a could of shallow pools, they did the bubble party thing with modern largely international dance music. Definitely drew the younger people from other resorts around the area. It was free to attend and drinks apparently were also free to Bambu clients. The ocean and beach were awesome. Shade areas available, largely tall palm trees that set a great ambience. The 3 pools were good. One was adult only with the swim up bar. Music could become overwhelming and loud there. Some showers for rinsing around the pools did not work. Food was okay, drinks were the typical syrups and lower end resort alcohol. Staff service we felt was pretty good with most the resort people we dealt with.

Bahia Principe Explore Legend: Great family getaway!

The Bahia Principe Legend was a great getaway for our family of 5, with kids ranging from 11 to 4. Buffet had ample options, although could have been better quality/taste. Some of the à la carte restaurants were fantastic (e.g. Mediterranean and Italian), while some seemed like they were just repurposing the buffet food. The pools, waterpark were the highlights for us. We pretty much lived there :-) The beach was great… if it wasn’t for the sargassum “seaweed”. Sand was great and water [... read more] was warm. Overall service was good, not great compared to some other (higher end) resorts I’ve been to but nothing to really complain about. The shows were enjoyable for the kids, although a bit repetitive. The Oneiro dinner & show was really fun, although we went through a long 3 course meal before it really kicked into the performance. Overall, would rate this an 8/10 and certainly a great option for families that don’t want to bust the bank.

Dreams Flora Resort and Spa: Amazing Resort

The grounds and staff were all excellent. Atanario our butler was superb. Danyyer was excellent and took excellent care of Our grandson Ian as he had Celiac dietary needs,Jandra,Jonathon,Mileiades,and Bienvido were all great at the Seaside Grill

Royalton CHIC Punta Cana: Not luxury at all

This hotel is simply the worst I’ve experienced. Very short staffed , bad food and management ! The closed restaurants and canceled reservations because they’re under staffed . Checking in took over an hour because they only have one person working the front desk ! They sell you on upgrading to diamond luxury club which is absolutely useless and waste of money They give you a butler that can’t do anything because the hotel can’t simply provide you with nothing ! We informed them that we’re cel [... read more]ebrating my birthday and anniversary and nothing was acknowledged! It is by far the worst experience and wasted money at this resort

Royalton Bavaro Resort and Spa: Disappointing

Check-in was horrible. Waited 3 hours for our room as it was not ready. Our room needed updating, stains on bed sheets, bath tub was rusted and worn out. Ceiling fan covered in dust and mold. Buffet food was okay but the actual building needed upgrading. For example the walls and trim needed to be painted and the trim at least replaced as it was not attached to the wall most staff were friendly but some did not look like they wanted to be there. Overall it was very disappointing and we would not [... read more] return.

Melia Punta Cana Beach Wellness Resort Adults: Birthday Trip

Beautiful resort. Appeared to be well kept. We upgraded to the Level upon arrival. We were put in room 1516 the view was like looking at a dumpster. Loud motorcycles all day long and trucks back and forth. Very noisy when the patio was open. Housekeeping was disappointing. The room was average, nothing special at all. Day two the housekeeper did not put clean or any pillowcases on the pillows (had to lodge a complaint twice), the next day the room was not done by 230pm ( had to complain about th [... read more]at). I left a healthy tip each day and it didn’t make a difference. Honestly, it didn’t feel like an upgrade at all. Aside from that, I would recommend the Level upgrade for all of the perks that come with it. Private pool, etc.

Barcelo Bavaro Palace: Unhappy staff

The hotel was good enough, but the workers seem to be unhappy and often rude. When I came back from vacation, I talked to people and almost everyone had the same experience with Dominican Republic doesn’t matter to which hotel or resort they went to. This may be a cultural thing where they don’t know what means customer service.

Ocean Blue and Sand: Relaxing

Very clean resort inside out with exceptional service. Would return again . The sun is king as it was amazing all 7 days. Keep the French Canadian fans away as they can be quit iratainting to say the least.

Lopesan Costa Bavaro Resort Spa and Casino: Beautiful Resort!

We thought everything was amazing, the room; drinks and dining at the Italian, Steakhouse and Asian restaurants and the buffets (our preference was the Goldfish); the pools and the beach. The lights around the grounds are spectacular! We did not upgrade to Unique and don't feel like we missed out on anything.

Bahia Principe Escape Aquamarine: Most beautiful grounds

The hotel is well laid out grounds are well kept well lit at night. The rooms can do with a little touch up. Impressive buffet. And of course the Bavaro beach is wonderful. Would like to have seen better quality drinks served if the hotel is claiming to be a 5 star and not have your guest pay for them.

TRS Turquesa: Great Choice!

We spent 2 amazing weeks at this resort from April 25 to May 9, we are a couple in our early 60's, everything about this resort was amazing, food, rooms and service were some of the best we have ever experienced at any of our Caribbean destinations. Our butler Jean was excellent and catered to our every need, Angela and Stephanie at Helios were amazing and always looked after us when we arrived, the bartenders and waitresses were very attentive and always had a smile. Never a long wait for a shu [... read more]ttle and the drivers were always friendly and polite, overall a great experience and we will definitely return.

Catalonia Royal Bavaro: Awesome resort

Resort was exactly what we had wanted beautiful resort great food well kept property rooms were clean and spacious the only downside was the sea weed but of no fault of the resort and the staff worked really hard every day to clean it up . Would def recommend this resort and we will be returning !

Viva Miches by Wyndham: Wonderful resort

The property is beautiful, the staff are amazing and all of your expectations will be exceeded. The rooms are so comfortable and spotless.The food is delicious and the a la cart restaurants are outstanding.The coffee shop makes a delicious cappuccino. You will enjoy the cats living on the property.

Melia Punta Cana Beach Wellness Resort Adults: Melia Caribe

Originally booked at the adults only Punta Cana Beach but the other couple in our party booked Caribe Family resort in error. Punta Cana Beach had no room we moved to the Caribe side which is a family resort. We had a wonderful time and would not hesitate to book there again.

Grand Sirenis Punta Cana Resort: Average Resort

We made the best our our week at Grand Sirenis. This resort should definitely not be rated high. The food was not the best. There was no consideration for dietary needs. My friend got food poisoning for two days. We found the pools to be very dirty and the majority of the pool is fairly deep. One day the shallow pool had throw up in it. The employees are wonderful, especially Ana at the buffet and Anthony at the front bar. They do have shows in the evening, however everything pretty much shuts d [... read more]own by 11:00. It would be nice to be able to dance or have a bit of night life. The resort is huge so if you have mobility issues, I would avoid this one.
