Blue Bay Villas Doradas: Blue Bay Villas Doradas

This was our first time at an Adult Only resort. We were a group of 4 aged between 48-55 and we were amongst the youngest people there. We were in the NoliPlus section by the Spa and felt like we were in a retirement home. Seniors go to this resort for months at a time and have "claimed" this area of the resort. You feel like you are intruding there as it is so quiet with no one talking and no music. The only issue we had with our room was it was not ready until very late the day we arrived. We  [... read more]actually had to share our friends room until ours was ready. We were among the lucky ones! If you do decide to go here, bring a printout of the package you paid for as several couples had to fight with the front desk to get the level of room they had purchased. There were numerous issues throughout the week with other guests and the front desk. The resort was overbooked and late guest arriving would be shipped off to other "resorts" which were not in the best conditions. Occupied rooms were given to new arrivals, room keys had to be replaced almost daily, rooms flooded from an overnight rain. It became a daily occurrence to see new arrivals trudge to their rooms with their luggage and turn right around and head back to the front desk once they saw their room! Again, our room issues were minor compared to others. The food was repetitive and if you wanted bacon at breakfast you had to tip for it - never saw that before and we have been to many resorts! Would I go back here ... No. And, I could not recommend it either.

Melia Caribe Beach Resort: Awsome Resort!!

We stayed at the Melia Caribe in March of 2014 for seven days. We loved this resort and all it had to offer. The staff were very friendly and accommidating and quick to offer assitance when asked. The rooms were clean and the beds comfortable with very good maid service and a well stocked fridge. We had a small issue with a faulty room key but it was fixed in minutes. The pools looked nice but to be honest we spent most of our time on the beautiful stretch of beach this resort sits on. Getting a [... read more]round the resort was no problem with six person golf carts coming and going all the time . The trains were fun but a longer ride to get where you were going, for us the beach. There is a restaurant on the beach which is perfect for never having to leave it, it really was an awsome beach! The food was the best we have had in the Dominican and the American steakhouse was our favourite. The shopping plaza was a 15min walk or a 2 minute cart ride but is expensive. There is a local grocery store not far away for snacks if you wish. Overall this was one of our favorite resorts and we would absolutly recommend this place!

Sunscape Puerto Plata: 2014 Holiday In The Sun

We had a room near the beach and loved the easy access. Great sand and beach area. Lots of shade available when needed. The pools were great as one worked for the younger crowd and we enjoyed the quieter pool up by the main entrance. Lots of chairs available and pool was great. The food was plentiful and we enjoyed most meals. Weather was great and staff very accomodating. We would recomment this hotel as the price was right and we weren't dissapointed with the trip at all.

Bahia Principe Explore Punta Cana: Expecting better...

Having been to Dominican before I knew what to expect. I've stayed in different areas and knew Punta Cana was my favorite. The food was good, no complaints. The service was great, never in need for anything. The grounds were well kept. My issues were with the room itself. Red ants everywhere. I mean we soaked Kleenex in OFF bug spray and plugged the cracks in the walls to stop them from wandering in. The AC was functional but so loud, it scared us when it would turn on. You'd have thought someth [... read more]ing was breaking. We had upgraded to Royal Golden and though it was closer to the beach, I don't feel like it was worth the upgrade. The lack of space on the beach and around the pools made for an adventure trying to find available chairs every morning...regardless of how early you went looking. If I were to go back to this resort, I'd skip Royal Golden and go straight to the Esmeralda site. Definitely worth the upgrade. Only way I'd come back. Expectations... Didn't meet mine but having traveled with someone who'd never been to a resort before they were quite happy with everything.

Barcelo Bavaro Beach: very nice resort

adults only section was very nice room was great, service was very good , casino was fun. the golf was great for my husband and son in law . the weather was sunny every day and will probably return to this resort. feel specia

Wyndham Alltra Samana: Wonderful place!

We really enjoyed our stay here and were pleasantly surprised with this unique, beautiful place and the exceptional service. We would definitely like to go back here again some time. The Dominican people were awesome as well.

Marien Puerto Plata Hotel: stupendous resort

the whole experience was very worth while. I brought my son on his first ever trip to an all inclusive resort.. at the `òld age`of 50. he was like a kid in a candy store. I am a very experienced traveller and I was very impressed by the service, the gourmet class food served by an experienced and helpful staff who looked after all of our needs, the rooms were first class , being on the beach , was a pleasant surprise. thanks to all.

Senator Puerto Plata Hotel: perfect again!!!

the short version: Third time there, food was awesome the staff was polite and efficient, the entertainment was fantastic, the grounds and beach were clean and well maintained, and the drinks were not watered down. I will be going again and again.

Beautiful beaches, Friendly staff, very clean resort. Some of the rooms were a little dated but still spotless. Food choices were good. Lots of activities for all ages. Night time entertainment was always enjoyable.

Bahia Principe Explore Punta Cana: Very good resort

The rooms were larger than expected and were cleaned regularly. Food was good and staff were very polite and accommodating. The grounds were well kept. Had a thoroughly enjoyable time and would certainly revisit.

VIK Hotel Arena Blanca: Awsome Food!

I went for a relaxing vacation with good food and got exactly what I needed. I wanted to try different meals on the menu but the dinners I had the day before were so good I wanted to order it again. Hotel was clean and my room was very close to the beach.

Wyndham Alltra Samana: a waste of oportunities in paradise

Excellent grounds but badly managed. From myngrup almost everybody got sick and they are not newbies. Its a shame that the management doesn't do a thing to prevent this from happening. The grounds are0 great and the diving team awsome

Riu Merengue: Loved this resort

Loved everything about this resort, food was great, staff amazing beaches. The only thing that was not up to my liking was the beds and pillows. That would be my only complaint. Loved how close everything was .

Bahia Principe Grand San Juan: Very comfortable resort on wide safe beach.

Beautiful grounds and very comfortable accommodations in well equipped rooms. Great central pool and very good choice of restaurants. Buffets featured excellent food variety. Staff and service was outstanding.

Barcelo Bavaro Beach: beautiful beach

great service whether you tipped or not, gorgeous beach, entertainment was not the best, food at specialized restaurants was good except for Mexican restaurant which was inedible, every drink you could want including champagne at breakfast buffet and they even had clamato juice for casears

Bahia Principe Grand San Juan: Great resort!

Great resort, great food, amazing parties! Perfect for students. I wouldn't recommend it for a family as it seems to be more catered towards a young crowd. I really enjoyed my stay at Bahia Principe and would definitely come back.
