Riu Republica: Nice pools and beach

The hotel sold our room when our flight was delayed. They didn't give us clean bathmat or towels multiple times and threw our blanket on the couch. Servers seemed annoyed to be there. They would not give us dry beach towels. The pools were nice, drinks were good. Food was ok. Specialty restaurants are just themed buffets.

Dreams Royal Beach Punta Cana: One of the Best Resorts in Punta Cana

Service was very good. Very scenic and well kept resort. Unlimited access to Secrets next door was an excellent perk. Food was average, but certainly enjoyable. Beach was great. Lots of shady areas available. Pool areas were very good.

Serenade All Suites Adults Only Resort: Just What The Doctor Ordered

Would highly recommend the Adults Only Side. From food to service to accommodations, it was all great. You could beach or enjoy your choice of three pools, each with its own degree of activity. Would definitely return.

Majestic Colonial Punta Cana Beach Resort: Amazing time with friends!

Amazing resort. Lots of food choices & restaurants. Close to airport about 30 mins. Fantastic Beach for swimming and walking. Always able to find a seat. Yummy drinks. Pools where very clean and spacious.

Ocean Blue and Sand: Ocean Blue and Sand

When we booked our trip, we asked our agent to request a 1st floor room, close to the beach, due to my wife having knee issues. At check-in we were told we were in 8 block on the 3rd floor. We told them about our request for a 1st floor room through our booking agent but were told there were no other rooms available. This seemed very odd to me because it was quite obvious they were nowhere near capacity. After the first night, we noticed our air conditioner didn't seem to be working properly [... read more] so we went to guest services to request someone look at it. They said they would send someone right away. That night, the same issue as the room was quite hot. Next morning we went to guest services and again asked to have someone look at our air conditioner, told them this was our second day complaining about it and again were told they would get on it right away. Well nothing changed. The coldest our room ever got was 26.5 C. Could l or should l have gone back a third time to complain? l guess l could have but why get upset and have to argue when on vacation. If Ocean Blue and Sand wants to be considered a 5 Star Hotel, they should have made sure our concerns were taking care of. The room, other than the air conditioner not working properly was actually quite nice. The grounds are kept amazing and there are 2 pretty good sized pool areas. The beach was also nice but lacked many Palapas. The only ones available were all in the back in the shade for most of the time. They have lots of room on the main beach to add some, and this would be a great addition to the property. The beach was nice. If your susceptible to mosquito's, make sure you bring lots of bug spray. l learned the hard way after the first night as l was eaten alive. My legs were a mess the next day while my wife had no bites. The restaurants were fairly good in our opinion. The main buffet was ok with lots of choices and although it wasn't on the better side of what we have seen over the years of travel, it was adequate enough in our opinion. The Sensai (Japanese), the Steak House (El Bodegon) and the Italian (Mascherati) were all good. We weren't allowed in the Blue Moon as long pants and shoes were required, something l don't bring down south. Route 66 was ok for a quick bite and more of a pub style dinner. At the beach, Villa Marina was also ok. Some of our favorite servers were Kelvin (Cline) Morales at the main lobby bar, Hugo and Edwin at the sports bar. This was our third time in the Dominican and we have also been to Aruba, Curacao, Barbados, Antigua, St. Marten, St. Thomas, St. Kitt's, St. Lucia, Jamaica, Cuba, Grand Cayman, Mexico and Turks and Caicos, just to give you an idea of how extensively we have travelled and to summarize how we rated this Hotel.

Melia Caribe Beach Resort: Not great

The resort is very tired its staff along with it , very disappointed nothing worked including are phone in room we would never recommend this resort to anyone it says 4 1/2 star I would give it a 3 and no more . If we could have come home a week in to our two week vacation we would have .

Melia Caribe Beach Resort: Great Resort

The grounds and the beach were beautiful. The room was well located in building 39 ( Deluxe but not Level) and was well maintained except for a short glitch where the AC started dripping water over the front door, but it was fixed as soon as we brought it up with Reception. The food was plentiful and good at the buffet and the Italian restaurants. We were not impressed with the Mexican and even less so with the Grill restaurants. Even though the resort is large we were always able to catc [... read more]h one of it's trains or a ride with a buggy. Were always able to find chairs at the beach or pool if came early (before 8). A couple of complaints - they play loud music at shows (that's why we stayed away from them), in the main restaurant, at the pool and on the beach - they should take the volume down. Also, they use way too much salt (for us older folks) on all meat - really unnecessary and unhealthy.

Bahia Principe Escape Ambar: Amazing resort and staff

The staff were incredibly amazing. We had Natalia taking care of our room all week. She was fantastic. Natalia was thorough in taking care of the room and also with taking care of our needs. The entire staff at this resort is amazing right from check-in to our concierge the servers and the restaurants I could go on and on about how fabulous the service is in this resort. It may be the cleanest place I’ve ever seen. The staff made our trip wonderful. The room was fantastic. The food was amazin [... read more]g everywhere there is nothing I could say bad about this resort. Thank you to Natalia, especially for taking such good care of us and Watson who was the most amazing and attentive concierge.

Sunscape Coco Punta Cana: Sunscape Coco Resort

I loved everything about the resort, except our room . It had no dressers to put clothes away and no hooks in the bathroom for house coat, toiletries etc....the beach was graded every other day and even though the ocean was great to swim in there was constant sea weed. It needed to be raked daily.

Majestic Colonial Punta Cana Beach Resort: The best Resort Ever

This resort and It's staff exceeded our expectations. We have never felt so welcomed and comfortable at a resort. It was very clean and the staff always had smiles on their faces and said hello everytime we walked by them or was at any of the bar or food facilities. I would recommend this resort to all my friends and family. We will definately be returning to this resort.

Majestic Colonial Punta Cana Beach Resort: fantastic

First of all the staff was very nice and helpfull....the grounds ,the pool, were very clean and enjoyable to use ...the maids on our floor were just great and seen to be happy when we spoke to them and very appreciated our friendlyness.

Majestic Mirage Punta Cana All Suite Resort: Relax and don’t lift a finger!

The Majestic Mirage is the perfect place to go to recharge. The rooms, all suites, are huge and kept clean and well stocked. The pools are different but perfect, winding alongside the buildings. The beach is gorgeous, and never a problem to find shade either at the pool or the beach. There are several restaurants - have your butler (!) make a reservation at the French restaurant and indulge in chateaubriand. In general, a spectacular resort and one to which we’ll be returning!

Bahia Principe Explore Legend: Wonderful Resort

In deed the resort is so huge and beautiful. The service is considered very acceptable. The only discomfort in hotel is mosquito spreading everywhere. Very good atmosphere for families with children. It is affordable and organized.

Royalton Bavaro Resort and Spa: Loved the resort and can't wait to go back!

I am not much of a traveler so I didn't really have any expectations but I can say that I would return in an instant. The resort was clean, the pools were clean, the folks were friendly, the buffets had something for everyone, the restaurants were great and easy to schedule, the activities and nighttime entertainment were fun. The Lazy River, Swim out room, Hydrotherapy Pool in the spa and their Pizza were all INCREDIBLE!! Zero Complaints about the resort. I would absolutely recommend to a f [... read more]riend. Having our direct flights cancelled both ways was a bummer because we didn't get to the resort until 11:30pm on our first day, so we paid for a full day but only got to enjoy 30 minutes. Our flight home was even worse. Checked out of hotel at 11am Wednesday and didn't get home until 10pm Thursday night.

El Beso Adults Only at Ocean El Faro: Fantastic Trip

Overall this resort was fantastic. The best parts were the rooms, pools, grounds and staff. The food ranged from good to very good. The beach was rough in spots, but had a beautiful lagoon next to the resort. There was ample chairs by the beach and pool. If you wanted a pool cabana you had to get up early. We had a great time.

Riu Republica: Loved the resort.

We enjoyed our stay at the resort. The food was great with lots of variety. The resort was well kept. The room was clean and the staff were all polite and helpful. It would be nice to have a boardwalk to get to the beach. The loose sand is very difficult to walk on especially since I need a walker due to knee and hip replacements.

Melia Punta Cana Beach Wellness Resort Adults: Beautiful resort

Hotel and grounds were absolutely amazing. Staff were friendly. Food was also very good. Only complaint not able to get any chairs at beach or pool. I would recommend this hotel for a quiet vacation.

Royalton CHIC Punta Cana: Love it or Not!

The good: Resturant selection and food was great. Rooms were well laid out and kept spotless. Customer service is over the top and everyone is friendly. The Bad: Not enough chairs on the beach or around the pool for the number of guests and people come out very early to put a towel on chairs as a reservation. The music at the pool seems to be from a pre-recorded track with little variation from day to day, by day 3 you need to find somewhere else to go away from the noise. The liquor is close [... read more]r to bottom shelf unless you pay for an upgrade. The floors are slippery when wet which happens quite often, people were falling down, be very careful. The Ugly; Upgrades, Time Shares, Vendors on the beach, everywhere you go someone seems to want to sell you something.

El Beso Adults Only at Ocean El Faro: Beautiful & Clean

We arrived at El Beso adults only on Monday, January 20. Check-in was quick and the Bell boys brought us and our luggage to the room in a golf cart. We arrived in the evening, This hotel is massive and although we were staying on the adults only side, we would walk every morning and evening to the Ocean El Fero side for coffee, buffet and restaurants, entertainment, and to book adventures. There was a golf cart train that circled the entire resort every 15 minutes for people who need assis [... read more]tance or didn’t want to walk. We walked approximately 11,000 to 13,000 steps per day which we enjoyed. The cart was nice when we were too hot, too tired, or if it rained.. We stayed in block 17 next to the beach and there was also a beach bar and beach restaurant on the adults only side. We managed to get beach chairs each day at the beach and spent most of our time swimming in the lagoon. We brought our own snorkeling, equipment, and saw sea turtles, small fish, and sea urchins at the lagoon. The lagoon was huge and the water was turquoise with a Sandy bottom and just enough waves coming in. The main beach was rocky, and the waves were very strong. The lagoon was only a five minute walk and well worth it.. Our room was extremely clean and staff came to clean every day. We couldn’t get the air conditioning working properly and we found it quite cold in our room. We just went to guest services and got an extra blanket. Staff brought pop, beer, and water every day to our room. The buffet was our favourite place to eat, but we did try the steakhouse and the Italian restaurant. They had a coffee shop which was fabulous and offered everything that Starbucks does. Our last night we tried the route 66 restaurant, but it was extremely greasy and we left most of our food on our plate.. We didn’t spend much time at the pool because we noticed everyone drinking at the swim up bar never left to go to the bathroom. That kind of grossed us out, but we loved the beach and swimming in the lagoon. We had the option of Privilege, but decided it was not worth the cost of $60USD/day. We tipped well but didn’t buy anything from the gift shop as it was very expensive. We decided to purchase one adventure from our Air Transat rep to go zip lining for half a day in the mountains. $90USD Was well worth it. When we checked out of our room at noon Saturday, we didn’t leave the resort until 5 pm. We were able to spend four more hours at the beach and then we’re able to book one of two shower rooms with a bathroom and change room. Shampoo, body wash, and towels were all provided. We would definitely recommend this resort and would go back again.

Occidental Punta Cana: Stay away

The grounds are well groomed and the beach is gorgeous but if you want good service, good food and people that speak English this is not the place. Mostly French clients. They advertise 3 pools. The main pool is only about 4’ at the deepest. The other two pools are about ankle deep. Any entertainment was in Spanish or French.I would advise another resort!
