Iberostar Waves Dominicana: `Clean and comfortable resort

Our trip to (Apr05/17) to Iberostar Dominicana was really good. The Puntacana airport is busy and is not wheel chair friendly. The resort is completely wheel chair friendly. There are 4 elevators and you can go to the beach by wheel chair. Also you can walk from beach to your room by bare feet. Beach is well maintained white sand and any body can go in to water. Rooms are big and comfortable. No problem with AC or hot water. The resort is big yet you can walk to the beach, your room and the  [... read more]lobby. Good selection of food with lots of fruits ,bread, meat and veggis. The beach restaurant is also good. the drinks are average. Entertainment is a waste of time except the Michael Jackson show. Iberostar Dominicana and Iberostar Puntacana are side by side, you can choose any one. We will go back again.

Bahia Principe Grand San Juan: Good Resort, Good Food

Girl's trip !!! We normally cruise but decided to try an all-inclusive resort for a change. We had a great time and thought the food was good, not the fine dining we were used to but acceptable. This resort is great for Spanish speaking or French speaking people, not so great if English is your language of choice. You would think with the resort being around for awhile and many travelers from Canada going there that their English would be better instead of just looking at you when you ask them s [... read more]omething. The resort is a long drive from the airport, so if you don't mind sitting on a bus for 90 minutes or more to get there after the flight it's for you. For the value I would go back with my family or husband but not with a bunch of girls looking for a party atmosphere because that was lacking.

Hyatt Vivid Punta Cana: AWESOME!!!

My wife and I spent our honeymoon this April/17 at the Dreams Palm Beach Resort in PuntaCana Dominican Republic. This place was awesome. The service was exceptional and the cleanliness of the entire resort was unbelievable, right from your room to the beach. The food and beverages were top notch.The view and surroundings were incredible. The people were awesome. The service we received from our travel agent, Carole Williams was fantastic. She took care of everything for us. I highly recommend th [... read more]is resort to anyone that is looking for an all-inclusive vacation. We plan to return.

Cofresi Palm Beach and Spa Resort: Misleading !!!

The resort pictures are very misleading. The resorts itself is ok, but not for the anyone who has walking issues or family friendly with small children - a lot of stairs on the Cofresi side. The rooms, aswell on the Cofresi side are unsatisfactory for the price. Some had no air, no hot water in most rooms, patio doors do not lock and overall below any standards. The food was ok - breakfast was the same daily, lunch and dinner on the upgrade side had more choices. There were a few pools to choose [... read more] from, but they too needed upgrading. It is farther then the indicated distance from the airport and don't ask for any upgrade you will just get the excuses. Overall, very disappointing resort for the money and will not be returning.

Viva Heavens by Wyndham: Relaxing stay

Very good resort, not too big and everything close by, waking distance of 5 min to the beach, i called it my Zen walk, food was good, favorite was the Italian on the beach, could not do water (catamaran) due to choppy water all week, preferred the pool for swimming and lots of animation activities from their team during the day, nice variety of ages, you felt comfortable to just chill and read, or participate in the activities if you felt bored. The staff were very friendly and plenty of smiles [... read more]! The vendors on the beach were not aggressive, a simple no thank you is all it took. Treat them with respect, and they will do the same.

Cofresi Palm Beach and Spa Resort: Great stay

The resort was very clean and enjoyable. Although my room was next to construction of a new building we still enjoyed our stay. I recommend a jr sweet for they are much much more nicer then your basic room. Food was good and staff were very friendly.

Catalonia Bavaro Resort: Amazing resort

Great service, very good food,got peanut butter and jam,very nice beach and lots of huts,could used more unberlla at the pool, nice staff and clean rooms over all would go back .could see me staying two week.

Paradise Playa Dorada: Awesome Resort

Hotel was kept clean all around food was good ppl were very friendly.. great place all around..even the toilets in common areas were kept very clean.. no problems here..great place for the value......

Dreams Dominicus La Romana: Dreams Dominicus La Romana

Overall good resort. On the smaller size than most, but enjoyed that as its only a few minutes of walking from lobby to beach. Nice size rooms, needs some maintenance which the resort is taking care of. Beach & Pools were great. Food was ok, nothing special. I would return to this resort in the future.

Riu Republica: Nice hotel

Lots of beach and pool chairs any time of day, wish there was more alacart restaurants instead of buffets, rooms are nice but if your shy the shower stall is see through glass looking out to the room big resort lots of walking

Bahia Principe Explore El Portillo: Great Resort

lovely small resort. Food=very good Beach= great but not enough thatched sunshade umbrellas reserve at 6am can be brutal. Snorkelling within ft of beach Off the resort sadly has lots of garbage which seems typical in the Caribbean.

Casa Marina Sosua Trademark by Wyndham All Inclusive: Not the best I've been to!

Yes the food was good and always lot of it and the weather was perfect, but unfortunately I got very sick after 4 days but I did eat outside the resort so... who knows... it is what it is! Cleanliness was lacking in the room. I wish the personnel would have spoken a bit of English or French, I found the security very strange, when 2 people were fighting one day no security around, when I was sitting outside at night gettting some quiet time listening and watching the waves well they sure had tim [... read more]e to sit with me and try to chat with me in Spanish!

Casa Marina Reef Resort: nice for the price

Hotel was clean, staff amazing, food was good, right in town, so close to everything. great 3 star hotel not for people looking for a 5 star want a good place to stay at a good price, this is a good buy . would return .

Ocean Blue and Sand: Rated C

Check in was suppose to be for 3pm..we arrived at the resort around 4:30 only to be told our room was not ready. The receptionists made it sound that we may be transferred to another hotel because they were overbooked. Our room was ready for 6pm. then we check that our sheets had blood stains on them. They were not cleaned. we waited about 45 minutes for the maid to delivery sheet. We did not get to bed till around 1:30 a.m that night. No impressed. Resort was clean. Food was good. On day [... read more] 5, the maid forgot to replenish our towels when we got to our room from the pool, we had no towels....again not impressed. We requested garden view or ocean view, but instead our view was a concrete wall, we couldn't sit out on our balcony.....again not impressed. I've been to much better resort. From 1 to 10 I would rate this a 5. Would I be going back probably not. would I refer this resort to someone else...probably not. I've been to many resorts in Mexico, Jamica and loved them all. This is my first time going to the dominican, I would definately be going back but not to Ocean Blue Resort

Bahia Principe Grand Bavaro: Absolutely amazing resort!!

This was our second vacation at this resort, we were not disappointed..... even better second time around. The food was awesome, staff were very helpful and friendly, the grounds are just beautiful and well kept. Great bang for your buck!! We will definitely return to this resort again.

Bahia Principe Explore El Portillo: Fantastic food, staff and employees

Dining 5 star everynight, food was excellent - staff very pleasant, beach beautiful. however 1 downfall, not safe to wonder off premisses during daytime or evening. One elderly man was attacked during the DAYTIME AFTERNOON @2pm on the beach for his cell phone, he was ambushed by a gang of locals and hit on the back of the head - bleeding enough to get 9-10 stiches. Then, during an evening after dinner a couple was sitting on the beach chairs and no security around was approach by 1 masked man [... read more] with a GUN. NO SECURITY - NO SECURITY !!! the Govt needs to get involved and clean up their act around the beach area and guard the tourists or the hotel needs 24 security like other tourists islands. I would recommend the hotel but if you wonder off to the local town or beach area - NOT SAFE for tourism.

Bahia Principe Explore La Romana: Take this with a grain of salt

Our original stay was in the Royal Golden section of GBP LA Romana. Part way through we upgraded and went over to Luxury Bouganville side. Would recommend that resort over the regular GBP everyday of the week. Rooms and grounds on both resorts were very clean. Food was OK, pools were nice. Beach is surprisingly very nice. Water as most people have been saying is murky but not a big problem. The most troubling part of this trip was the HUGE language barrier that exists. We've been to close [... read more] to 10 resorts in the DR, Cuba and Mexico over the years and this was by far the worst for communicating with staff. This led to a lot of confusion, misrepresentation and perhaps some unintended dishonesty from staff. Overall it lessened the experience and would prevent us from returning to this area of the DR.

VH Gran Ventana Beach Resort: Best Resort

The VH Gran Ventana is the best resort we have stayed at, The service and welcome starts as soon as you get off the bus. The staff appreciate you for using their resort from the maids to bartenders and servers right to the management. The food is great from breakfast to lunch and supper, they have enough variety that anyone should be able to find something they like. The resort is small enough that walking to the beach and to dinning and entertainment is all with in minutes. The Playa Dorada [... read more] complex is safe for walking, shopping and enjoying the sunshine. The beach itself has a natural coral reef in front and is great for snorkeling to see all the different fish. You go once to this resort and become family.

Ocean Blue and Sand: Awesome family holiday at OBS

We spent 2 weeks at Ocean Blue and Sand and we had an amazing time. Everything​ was great, room was beautiful, very clean updated, drinks, towels were stocked daily. Great housekeeper we had, she went the extra mile to make sure we were happy. The food was outstanding, so much to choose from. Beautiful pools and very clean. Grounds at OBS are beautiful, the staff works very hard at their jobs. Bartenders are fast and friendly, this resort certainly is a 5* and I will recommend it anyone.
