Sunscape Coco Punta Cana: Sunwing Rep is deserving of a 5 Star

Whoever you have for a travel rep, make sure you use there services when needed. Our Sunwing Rep. Deyanina (sp) went above and beyond for us. When we told her our concerns she went to the counter with us and made any inquires on our behalf. I have been to many all inclusives and I have never had the service that I have had with Deyanina, she made our stay bearable. 2 hr check in, no welcoming drink, moved to 2 different locations for check in. Asked to move rooms after second day due to room  [... read more]repairs. Nothing wrong with the room. New location across from 1st room was loud due to evening music. We asked for a quiet area when room was booked. 4th day water shut off for 18 hrs. no warning. Front desk told us it would be off for an hour and it was only our block. Turns out it was the whole resort. Pool emptied same day and major repairs begun and was still on going when we left. Again no warning. No extra loungers taken to the beach to accommodate nothing being at the pool. Formal dress not enforced at the al a cartes. The steak and the Fish al a cartes had people walking off of the beach wet and in bathing suits walking right thru them and not one person stopped this. Went for the lobster which is advertised as per person when in fact is per pound. Server climbed on top of the table to retrieve the lobster out of the tank and after weighing it proceeded to chase a bather at crotch level when she was cutting thru the restaurant coming off of the beach. If you want us to dress and not act like animals, then we expect for the staff and other patrons to act the same way. A leak from our ceiling for 4 days I guess doesn't seem to be an issue to the resort. So we just kept a towel down so we wouldn't wipe out. The rooms are very spacious and the staff keep the rooms clean. MOST employees always had a smile and were very helpful when they could. Would I be back NOPE, why because when I ask a question regarding an inconvienance I expect the truth and let me deal with it the best way I can. The tourists around the resort were rude, we saw one young man steal a towel and his mother thought there was nothing wrong with it, people infringe on the area you are sitting in on the beach and think nothing of walking where ever they want even if it might bother someone else. Would I recommend this resort again, Nope, but it's not my vacation you have to decide that for yourself.

Viva Heavens by Wyndham: Nice Resort

Hotel was very nice.Staff very friendly and can't do enough for you. Service was very good.They did a nice job on the renovations.Found the buffet food was not hot. Everything was cold.The food could have been a little better for a 4 and a 1/2 star.It was nice that you didn't have to make reservations for the restaurants. Found the beach was a long walk.which is where the italian restaurant was. They almost need a shuttle to the beach.Service at all restaurants were good and around the pool. The [... read more] maintance guy which I think his name was Julio did a fantastic job. The pool was crystal clear everyday.Our room was very nice with comfortable beds and a good shower.

Secrets Royal Beach: Wonderful trip

Only a short drive from the airport, we were welcomed warmly by the reception and given a cool towel and drink upon arrival. The rooms were spacious and clean. The king bed was very comfortable. The food is excellent at the buffet and at the a la carte restaurants. The staff are very friendly and the service is exceptional. Drinks were a plenty! Loads of loungers at the beach and the lazy river pool was a great place to cool off and relax. I would definitely return!

Bahia Principe Explore El Portillo: Grand Bahia Principi El Portillo

Very clean well run resort loved the pool and the food was delicious !, Staff was excellent and rooms were comfortable , more english stations on Telly would have been nice watched the Bluejays with a Spanish announcer !

Bahia Principe Explore Esmeralda: Excellent resort

The hotel was very good. Dining room and A la Carte food was good as well, lot of variety and both red and white wines. Wi-fi was available 24 hours. The beach truly beautiful and had good facilities. The hotel staff was very friendly and always helpful. The room was always kept clean.

Barcelo Bavaro Beach: Awesome resort!!

Everything is this resort was very clean. The rooms were cleaned by the maids everyday. The workers at the reception understood english very well and I had no problems talking to them. Checkin and out were very quick. Everyone at this resort was very friendly. You could go off resprt and walk around and no really bothers you. The beach was awesome! Warm water and clean sand the whole time I was there. The food was very good and they had a lot of different foods every day. Love the people in the  [... read more]entertainment group. They were very good at getting people involved!

Punta Cana Princess: Great Resort

We had a great time at this resort. The staff were great, the food was really good. The beach was clean for the first few days but with all the high waves there was a bit of seaweed gathering on the beach. We had no issues with anything at this resort. Would definitely go back again!

Bahia Principe Explore Punta Cana: Couples Vacation

We just returned from Bahia Principe Punta Cana where we upgraded to the Golden section. The room was clean and comfortable but the mattress wasn't new thus not the most comfortable. We had a leak in our room during a rainy storm but the staff quickly cleaned it up and checked to make sure it wouldn't happen again. The cleaning staff was thoughtful and restocked our fridge daily with our choice of drinks which we wrote on a notepad for them. Note the fridges aren't very cold but room service is  [... read more]happy to provide ice. We ate a 4 a la carte restaurants which were fine. They weren't over the top impressive and frankly we preferred the buffet which had plenty of choices. The beach is nice and there's plenty of chairs. With so many pools we always found places to relax. The night shows were great!

Cayo Levantado Resort: Amazing Honeymoon destination!

We selected this resort as our honeymoon destination and we couldn't have been happier with our choice!! The grounds are so lush and well kept and the staff are amazing - they go out of their way to make your stay so enjoyable. The food was delicious. We ate at all of the a la carte restaurants and the Don Pablo was our favourite. The 2 beaches were great for swimming and you can alternate between them easily. We also spent a couple of days at the public beach which was very nice. We s [... read more]pent most of our time between the hotel beaches and the beach pool which included drink service and also enjoyed some afternoons in the Jacuzzi pool - a little used pool with it's own bar. A great little hideaway space! Would definitely recommend this hotel to friends!

Majestic Colonial Punta Cana Beach Resort: Amazing Resort!

Traveled with my husband for 10 days for my birthday! Friends arrived for 7 days. We all had a fantastic time. Food is great, service is fantastic with expect to beach service a little slow. Rooms where beautiful! Stayed on the club side. Will be returning again for sure!

Ocean Blue and Sand: Okay Place

The grounds ,pool,and beach was fantastic.The rotating closing and limited seating of the specialty restaurants. Generally very friendly staff. ONLY ISSUE WAS THE AIRLINE. NEVER WILL I BE LOOKING TO USE AIR TRANSAT AGAIN. If Air Transat is the only airline to offer Ocean Blue and Sand then I guess I'll never be going there again!

Bahia Principe Escape Ambar: Really worth it!

I'd like to start by saying that even though I did a tonne of research and read a lot of reviews, this resort truly exceeded my initial expectations. There seems to be an unending amount of staff everywhere, and all of them seemed truly happy to be doing their jobs. There's a bit of a language barrier, but considering the amount of people that were there from various countries speaking a multitude of languages, it makes sense that the staff would not be able to learn every language, especially n [... read more]ot fluently. They do their very best and I was given very good service. The food was delicious, and of fantastic quality and variety. I could have eaten at the buffet every night, but I did venture out to the a la cartes. If you love meat, their Brazilian style steakhouse, Rodizio, is amazing, and all the meat was incredibly well flavoured. The Mediterranean restaurant, El Pescador, offered some of the best seafood. And their Italian restaurant (I don't remember the name) had an amazing appetizer buffet and delicious pasta menu choices. You never go hungry either. The pool side buffet had lots of choice for midday snacks. The grounds are stunning, constantly being groomed by an army of grounds keepers. The trolley car that is available to take you to the other parts of the resort (the entire property is actually 6 different resorts, though only the Ambar is adults only) and comes quite frequently, so you never wait long. The beach is beautiful, and once again there are groomers raking up the seaweed all day. They do their best to keep it clean as possible. There are always chairs available, but if you want one close to the water, you need to get up very early (6:30ish) but they have paths to walk down easily. Best part about adults only is they mean it. There are signs everywhere along the border of the Ambar portion and the lifeguard will actually blow his whistle and redirect parents who walk their children onto the adults only portion of the beach. You truly get an adults only experience. There are plenty of women who go topless on the beach and no one bothers you for it, but that's as crazy as it gets. It's really a relaxing atmosphere for couples who want to enjoy each others company and not worry about a thing. My biggest suggestion for a relaxing half day trip is to take the Ocean Spa tour. They pick you up at the hotel, take you out to the docks, and before you get on the boat, you sit and have little fish suck the dead skin off your feet with their lips. It leaves your feet smooth and soft. Then you board the boat to do multiple relaxing activities including simple yoga, ionizing detox, nap on a floating mattress in the ocean, full body massage, full body exfoliation, mechanical table that stretches out your spine, then chill time on the deck on bean bag mattresses and chairs before they serve you lunch at an ocean restaurant over the water. Absolutely best half day trip I have ever had. You never feel rushed, every activity just flows into the next, and by the time you get back to shore, you are ready for a nice long sleep on the beach.

Majestic Colonial Punta Cana Beach Resort: Excellent Resort.

What a great resort, stayed on Club side at the Majestic Colonial. Hard working staff and all so friendly to make your holiday the best. Grounds kept very clean. Great food options. And good drinks. Beach was awesome, clean.

Catalonia Bavaro Resort: Surprised

We were not told that the pool and gym were under construction before we booked at this hotel. Was a shame. We were also not told that the air conditioning units were broken, and it was days before they fixed anything. The pool…. More than half of it is under construction until December, then they will shut down the other part of the pool in 2017). Would have been good information to know. The piece of the pool that was opened was full of a cloudy film and had a lot of dirt in it each day. [... read more] The issue was that the skimmer was not working, the water level was low and stuff gathered every day in the pool - garbage, film, dirt, wrappers, etc. It was so disgusting…. You’d have to see it to believe it. Really ruined the fun of going to the swim up bar to get a drink at 4pm each day. Entertainment with the staff all day/early evening was amazing. The best I've seen. Thanks to Julio, Teddy Bear (Henrike), Dennis, and Simon the pool bartender who really gets into the music and dance. They made the trip worthwhile but I'd never go back to this resort knowing they can't keep things running smoothly.

Excellence Punta Cana: Wonderful resort

This resort was amazing, and would definitely return to it. We had never been to Dominican Republic. We were very impressed as soon as we walked off the plane. The airport was one of the nicest we have been in, and we had no line ups. We had stopped at a few resorts on our way to Excellence and when we drove in, we were in awe. The greeting, the excellence club concierge, our accommodations, and the entire resort was more than we expected. We have been to Sandals and they gave us more persona [... read more]ble treatment. At our anniversary dinner, we were given the Royal treatment, which we hadn't received before. They even exchanged a bottle of whiskey that I like, rather than scotch. Sandals never did that.

Bahia Principe Escape Ambar: Fantastic service, fantastic employees...again!

This was my first time, and my girlfriend's fifth time at the Bahia Principe Ambar. We had an incredibly relaxing week. The food and restaurants were better than I had expected and the pool and beach were very well kept and groomed, along with the rest of the resort's grounds. The games and fitness activities pool side were a lot of fun, especially with a drink or two! I will definitely be returning in the future!

Bahia Principe Escape Ambar: Amazing Resort

My husband and I just got back from a 2 week stay at this resort and loved every minute of it. The grounds are impeccable and we were impressed by how clean this resort is. This is our first time staying at an adult resort and it was wonderful. The beach was raked daily and very clean. The many pools were beautiful and the entertainment staff were a lot of fun. There's always lots to do or you can do nothing at all. The food is amazing at this resort. This resort is huge! By staying at t [... read more]he Ambar you have the option to use all of the Bahia Principes facility's connected to it. They have little trolley trains to get around.

Majestic Colonial Punta Cana Beach Resort: Majestic Colonial Punta Cana Dominican Republic

There is not one thing that I would change about this resort. The food was to die for the rooms where beautiful and well looked after the pool and grounds were impeccable. The waitresses Milsolida and Marisol made every meal so enjoyable and dressed the table and reserved it for us for the whole time we were there, the coffee boy was fantastic and Michol in the bar was great also. My friends were celebrating their 23rd Anniversary while we were there and your Team made the celebration very memo [... read more]rable. I only had one bad thing happen that I did not have wifi in my room for 3 days and was very distraught about not being able to get in touch with my children because of Hurricane Matthew, but after complaining numerous times got a new room with wifi and got in touch with them. Everything else was superb. And yes this trip was one in a million for me. Yes will be back again. Love this place. FANTABULOUS RESORT

Majestic Colonial Punta Cana Beach Resort: Majestic Indeed
