Senator Puerto Plata Hotel: Amazing resort

Enjoyed every minute So clean,someone is always cleaning. Everything you would want to eat and drink. Staff very accommodating. Night live was good. Beach was always clean. Great view of the in coming ship.

Bahia Principe Explore La Romana: Great Family Vacation

Resort had all the amenities that a family would enjoy. Pool was huge and my granddaughters and their father were in the pool everyday, with a poolside bar for drinks. Beach waters were a little difficult to enter as there were small pebbles and then dips down about 2 feet, which made it a little difficult to walk back to shore. Water shoes recommended. Our rooms were side by side, and room was large, comfortable beds. Food too much to select from that would satisfy any pallet. Nightly  [... read more]entertainment was awesome!!!!

Grand Bavaro Princess: Amazing time

This is a great place, service outstanding, grounds immaculate, great pool and beach is amazing. Entertainment was very good and the Christmas festivities very enjoyable. Resort for Christmas was full of lights everywhere. Enjoyed the stay very much.

Grand Bavaro Princess: Honest review

Staff started working at 7:30 am and would talk outside of our room VERY loudly to each other which woke us up. After three days of complaining they finally stopped. Did not get fresh towels every day. Had to ask. Room smelled musty. Terrible entertainment. Food not great.

Bahia Principe Explore La Romana: Amazing Resort

The grounds were so peaceful. I loved my morning walk through the grounds and the big walkways, lined with palm trees on either side. I especially loved walking the grounds at night where all the palm trees were lit up from the bottom. The lobby was beautiful and had plentiful amount of tables and chairs where you could sit and watch the entertainment or play a game of cards with a drink on hand. The public rest rooms were always maintained and clean. The dining rooms and the buffet were al [... read more]ways clean, cleanliness was top priority here, as soon as a guest left the table it was cleaned immediately. The pool was huge and plenty of space to find a chairs and room to swim. There was entertainment all day at the pool, and if you wanted to leave the pool there was a clean sandy beach with volleyball, soccer and plenty of chairs under the palm tree umbrellas. The beach is a little murky because of the sand that is always moving, but the water is clear so don't be fooled. It drops off quickly and goes down to 3' right away. Most of the time we spent either walking the beach or at the pool, not too much time in the ocean. The good thing about this beach is that it is in a bay and there are few waves and was mostly calm.

Marien Puerto Plata Hotel: Food is good

My first day was a bit chaotic since the phone in my room wasn’t working, and it took them two days to fix it. Also, the room’s locker isn’t digital—it uses a key and costs 3 USD per day to use. Aside from that, the food was great, the beachfront was very clean, and the pool area was fun and entertaining.

VH Gran Ventana Beach Resort: Great resort!

Great resort for the price. Food was good, drinks were good and all 3 a-la-carts were very good. Great sandy beach that was very easy to get into -no rocks and gentle slope. We did upgrade to Junior Suite to get oceanview and get away from the pool. The resort was very busy But the service was still good. There were no ocean activities and very few beach umbrellas.

Viva Heavens by Wyndham: Resort good, but small.

Small resort which could use a swim up bar and/or a sports bar. The all together room was a little bland. But Henry was kind enough to switch us to an amnesia junior room which was a great improvement. We had asked for a room on a higher floor but the all together room was on the lower floor and it really was not a pleasant room. Henry from front desk moved our room to 3rd floor and it was a huge improvement.

Cofresi Palm Beach and Spa Resort: Lousy Beach. Good Value

Hard to beat for the price. Good food, lots of booze, nice pools and lousy beach. Seriously, the beach had open sewer and smelled awful. We had to tip to get good rum. Our room was not a suite as advertised. Lots of nice people but not so much at the reception desk.

Barcelo Bavaro Beach: Adults only

The hotel is very good! Everything is close . The beach is beautiful! The grounds are very well kept. The rooms could use some updates especially the showers could be walk in, easier for seniors. Overall we had a great vacation, the weather was fantastic!!!

Grand Bavaro Princess: Large Resort

The front desk staff were accommodating when our first room smelled of mold. The rooms were large in size with a separate seating area. The resort has a beautiful beach that they kept clean to the best of their ability. The pool was busy but you could always find a chair. Drinks were delicious and food was delicious. I would recommend taking a taxi from the airport, as we waited over an 1 hr to leave then had to drop people off at different locations. We didn't get to the resort until 3 hours fr [... read more]om landing.

Barcelo Bavaro Beach: Great Value

Our stay at Barceló Bávaro Beach was wonderful, as always. The staff were incredibly friendly and the service throughout the resort was excellent. The food was outstanding and truly seems to get better each time we visit. Our room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. One of the things we appreciate most is the compact layout of the resort—everything from the pool to the beach to the buffet is just a short walk away. For anything farther, the trolley runs frequently and provides easy acce [... read more]ss to additional amenities. What could be improved is the bar area, which could use a makeover since the chairs and overall setup feel old and dated. It would also be great to have a bar directly on the beach instead of having to walk back to the pool bar. Another feature we would love to see added is a snack bar for quick bites between meals—something like a small hamburger or snack shack would be a perfect addition. On a positive note, the golf course was in very good shape and offered fun, challenging rounds; although short, the well-protected greens made the course especially enjoyable. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would highly recommend this resort.

Dreams Dominicus La Romana: Beautiful but a little messy

We really liked so much about this resort. The only problem was that our kids both got sick (presumably food poisoning) on day three, then I got sick (again assumed food poisoning) on day five. So all of that put a big damper on our vacation and we had to miss all of our excursions.

Ocean Blue and Sand: Decent resort

Positives: grounds well mentained Buffet food was good and always new things Lady that sings live music during the week Pools are nice and clean. Rooms are nice, showers are nice. Beach very clean and beautiful Negatives: Sports bar that has bowling and ping pong closes at 10:50 pm when everyone wants to go there, open during the day when everyone enjoys the outdoors Dj in club should be fired, most of the music is reggeton, that I can get in Canada too . I m going to Dominican to exp [... read more]erience their culture - bachata and salsa dance not reggeton and Sweet Caroline and YMCA lol Entertainment team is majority guys, only one girl, seems unbalanced and some of the guys they are not very friendly, the tall guy actually pretty full of himself. Drinks are ok but there is room for improvement. Tried to make reservations for the a la carte restaurants, online you couldn't because it was saying always full, they said come at 8 am at the reception for that, but soory in vacation I m not gonna wake up 7 30 to be at 8 am to make a reservation. Very poor sistem. Lounge chairs at the beach not enough and always full in the morning. Shows - very mediocre compared to other hotels in Punta Cana. If you are traveling with a 2 years old don't stay at the 3 rd floor, they have no elevators, carying stroler up and down it becomes exhausting

Marien Puerto Plata Hotel: Terrible Resort

The food is horrible, there was a cockroach in our room and we were sick most of the time from the food. will never go back again. The only good part of the trip was the weather and the resort was beachfront. Anna was our housekeeper who I adored and did a great job. I talked to an agent at trip central who said this resort was nice. This resort is not even a 3 star im very disappointed in the feedback from the trip central agent as well as this hotel.

Vista Sol Punta Cana: Very beautiful resort

Hotels, grounds and public areas very clean and well maintained. A lots trees flowers and spaces in shade for walking. Every day new entertainment. Theatre has enough seats for all people. Staff were very friendly and professional. Wifi working perfectly in rooms restaurants and public areas. For sure we will recommend this resort to our friends and family.

Viva Heavens by Wyndham: Okay vacation but more of a 3 star experience!

I travelled to this resort with my family celebrating a birthday. it was a short 4 day experience yet I was happy to go home. The hotel is very dated, and the pictures online make it look nicer, and larger. The rooms smelled musky and moldy and were nothing special. During my stay I was woken up on two occasions to loud guests screaming and fighting, with one of the incidences having the police called to the resort. The cocktails and drinks were made well and tasted great. The buffet had lit [... read more]tle to no variety with many of the dishes recycled daily, especially at the beach bar buffet. The a la carte restaurants were okay but nothing was fantastic, a lot of the food tasted bland. They did a nice thanksgiving dinner spread which was the best meal we had. The beach is nice with many options for seating. The staff is friendly and accommodating, however this doesn't change the overall feeling that the resort is much for of a 2.5-3 star rather than a 4 star. Overall I wouldn't recommend this resort, the negatives out weight the positives and even if you're on a budget pay I'd bit more for a better experience.

Secrets Playa Esmeralda Resort and Spa: Secrets Playa Esmeralda Secrets Preferred club section. Oceanview Junior Suite

Fairly new hotel. Still encountered maintenance items. Make up room and do not disturb buttons not functioning. Reported and repaired 2 days later. Receptacles for hair dryer in bathroom not powered. Reported, never repaired. Specialty restaurants, service very slow, with the exception of Windows. Walked out of Dona Altagracia after 90 minutes , still no main course. Reception areas very efficient. Room and balcony quite spacious, pool excellent. Occupancy about 65%, so no problem with chairs [... read more] and palapas, in spite of the 6 am towel claimer jerks. Our concierge, Claudio, was very helpful and good natured. Others of note, Kelvin the bartender at the pool bar and Brenda with the entertainment team who was seen AND HEARD everywhere. I rate the food as fair with the exception of the roast beef at the Market cafe for lunch time. Best I have ever had!!!

Grand Palladium Punta Cana: Great stay!

Beautiful grounds, excellent food, lots of activities. The kids and baby club staff were great. Unfortunately the kids club facilities were being redone during our start but the Reno looked amazing! The beach was very small and had seaweed— not much they can do about that but I was surprised by the size of the beach. Many restaurants were temporarily closed but the ones we tried were nice.
