Melia Punta Cana Beach Wellness Resort Adults: Great Resort

The hotel was nice, the staff was always available to answer an questions or help. Wished that there was more options for people with intolerance to gluten. We liked the Vietnamese restaurant out of the three restaurants available. Rooms

Riu Republica: Riu Replublica

The hotel grounds were well taken care of. The entertainment was delightful. The food was average. The staff were all friendly and accommodating. Unfortunately, the excessive drinking made for very messy times. They seemed to not care about public drunkenness nor did they appreciate their surroundings.

Majestic Colonial Punta Cana Beach Resort: Wonderful resort. Second time staying there.

Beautiful grounds - well maintained Spacious rooms, but do not like the open bathroom set-up. Prefer a closed wall and door for privacy Every part of resort kept clean and tidy, especially washrooms Butler was very friendly and helpful Always seem to be issues with other guests placing items on Bali beds and chairs to claim them and do not use them for hours. Is there any solution? Unfair to other guests

Bahia Principe Escape Ambar: My Happy Place ??

This was my 2nd visit to Ambar and it was even better than the 1st. The grounds are beautiful and so well maintained, the food is delicious, the staff are amazing and they all work so hard. The main pool is so much fun and the beach is beautiful. The only issue i have had both times is there is not enough loungers (or selfish people are holding extra ones) and not enough huts for shade on the beach. Could also use some better wines such as a pinot grigio but there was plenty to drink. I will be  [... read more]back again next year :)

Riu Palace Macao: New Favorite Resort

Beautiful resort.The size is perfect.Everything is close by.The beach is very spacious with tons of beautiful palm trees so shade or sun is available.Loads of lounges and tables too.Rooms were spacious and kept clean.Any questions or concerns were looked after quickly.The staff is amazing and very friendly.

Bahia Principe Grand Bavaro: Bahia Principe Bavaro Grande Review from a First Timer

Room we checked into was musty smelling, didn't have hot water and the patio door would not lock. We asked to change rooms and were accommodated in our request although it took and bit of back and forthing and coming back later to pick up the key when the rooms was ready. Ground were beautiful, the staff was extremely friendly and pleasant. Even those who were selling excursions and trinkets were polite and not pushy. The food truck concession was a little disorganized and the computer sys [... read more]tem went down. I believe that the confusion and congestion would have been better managed if the coordinator was able to provide instructions and call out the ready orders in English. Through it all and there were many frustrations expressed by the waiting customers, the staff was pleasant and professional.

Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana: Best so far

An excellent week with great beach and best food so far in the many resorts I’ve been to. Minor glitch was handled quickly and appropriately. Easily met many new acquaintances from all over the US. Staff was unbelievably friendly and helpful.

Occidental Punta Cana: Good time with friends

Nice sized resort Lots of chairs but minimal shade at pools and beach Always found something to eat at buffet Ala Carte's OK Room recently renewed Property well kept Mini bar restocked daily Overall lack of service in restaurants and buffets Resort was full capacity

Sunscape Coco Punta Cana: Amazing Resort!

We just returned from Sunscape Coco Punta Cana. The grounds were beautiful. The beach is nice, however there was a lot of sea debris everyday which was raked away most of the time. The food is excellent in both buffets and all the ala cartes. Italian and Japanese were the best. The staff goes above and beyond and are all really friendly. We paid a little extra to be in Sun Club. Recommend this upgrade 100%. Entertainment was also really good.

Riu Republica: Great time!

The resort had a lovely ambiance and was really well manicured! I liked that the “a la carte” restaurants were first come first serve, so we didn’t have to book in advance, and could visit these restaurants multiple times as opposed to having buffet dinners. The Spanish, “kulinarium” and Indian restaurants were all really good. The Spanish restaurant was by far our favourite, with Spanish style tapas for appetizers, and 3 entrees to choose from. I had the beef sirloin, my fiancée had the pork  [... read more]cheek, we were both very impressed by the entrees. The service around the resort, from poolside to even the beach was really great. Friendly and attentive servers/bartenders really helped enhance the experience. With so many different pools, it was diverse, there was definitely one pool that was more of a “party vibe” but it was easy to find a more quiet corner to relax and read poolside in. I read a lot of reviews about the room cards not working, but if you just keep it separate from your cell phone it isn’t a problem. Wifi signal was strong all over the resort, even by the beach, which was a nice touch. The room was cleaned daily mid afternoon, and always felt clean and fresh afterwards. The mattress was very firm but personally, that’s my preference. There was only 3 pillows and they were really thin, but maybe we could have had more if we asked, we didn’t try. Also lack of blankets, again we probably could have asked for more though just didn’t bother.

Occidental Caribe: Breathtaking views

Resort is beautiful and well maintained. Food is amazing at breakfast, ok at lunch then suppers were great at the buffet. Pizza place is amazing above the snack bar. The ocean and beach is so clean and breathtaking! Loved my time here.

Majestic Elegance Punta Cana: Second time staying at Majestic Elegance and it was perfect as usual!

Everything was perfect as usual. Will be returning again! Grounds are well maintained and staff are extremely friendly and helpful. This was our second stay and will be back again soon! Our butler and maid were excellent.

Occidental Caribe: Honest Review

The beach is large with lots of chairs, it’s honestly spectacular. The pools are a great layout for families although they were far from clean and if you want a shady area to sit you have to go out at about 5 am to mark your spot. The food was enjoyable and the a la cart restaurants were very good. It was difficult to get an early reservation in order to eat before the babies had to go to bed, you have to go down to guest services very early and request this and then go back later in the day t [... read more]o confirm. The service was overall quite poor, that’s not to say all employees were unhelpful but it was a mixed bag depending on who you got. I had to fill bottles of milk for my baby and many employees would give me a carton for the room but I did have one woman flat out refuse and only offered me a cup which wouldn’t fill even the whole bottle. Also there is no non-dairy milk option so if you or your child has an allergy this would be an issue. We were travelling with family and young babes so we asked for rooms to be close together ahead of time and were refused any help both ahead and at the resort when we landed. We also asked to reserve cribs and we’re told they were first come first serve so we had to bring our own travel cribs to ensure our babes had a safe place to sleep. If we didn’t ask ahead we could have shown up with no where for our babies to sleep. The rooms are dated which wasn’t a big deal to us but the toilets didn’t flush very well and the room wasn’t always cleaned daily, we each had a day where a room wasn’t cleaned or towels weren’t replaced. Overall the resort is a great size and the pools and amenities are great for young families but I would say the service really needs to level up to match the same standard.

Hyatt Vivid Punta Cana: A wonderful resort!

My partner and I just returned from a week’s vacation at the Jewel Palm Beach Resort. We had a wonderful time! We upgraded to the VIP club and it was worth it. We had a nice room overlooking one of the club pools and we could see the ocean. The king size bed was very comfortable. The staff we interacted with were great! Shout out to Emilio at the VIP adult pool bar. The service we received from him was “Excellente”! Also Anthony who seemed to be there for us whenever we needed something whether  [... read more]we were at the buffet or the Two Palms Grill. I would definitely recommend this resort.

Sunscape Coco Punta Cana: Worth it !!

Check in was smooth, upgraded us to adults only, adults only buffet was my fav, we did have options on which buffet we wanted, family or adults.. 1 person in our group ate fish (he thinks it was the fish) and got sick for about 24hrs. He thinks it was at the family buffet, fish was under cooked, he thinks.... The rest of us were fine, . The room were okay. No bugs.. musky smell tho, air conditioner worked, had hot water, overall it was great. Family pool was fun no problems. Pool bar was  [... read more]great. Adult only pool was more quiet then the family pool but, both fun!! Had lots of daily activities. The staff was very attentive in all categories. A la carte restaurants were good. Every1 kept saying chop sticks was the best... for me ...no .. wasnt as good as ppl call it. Not traditional Canadian Chinese but, they work hard so it was worth the try !! The Italian was my fav. Overall the adult buffett was the go to for me !! Beach was great. They cleaned up the seaweed often. Rough ocean waves. Overall a beautiful resort, i would definitely recommend.

Ocean Blue and Sand: Great resort, enjoyed our stay

We just got back this week and really enjoyed this resort. They pay a lot of attention to detail with the little things they offer around the resort like archery, Martini/Margarita bars at night, a night with bouncy castles and popcorn for the kids. The entertainment team is top notch. We can't say enough good things about them. They have the highest energy, they seem to genuinely have a great time, and they are great at getting guest engagement. Always lots of seating for watching the evening [... read more] entertainment as well. They do fun little contests on the beach in the morning and the pool in the afternoon and at night they bring out all the winners and give them Dominican rum to celebrate. Our only complaint was the volume at which they put the audio. It was so loud! The selection of restaurants is good. We found the food to be varied enough that we weren't getting tired of anything. They have an amazing coffee shop (with probably the best AC on the resort) that had a nice vibe and was a great place to cool down mid day. The buffet could get quite busy, but the staff really hustle to get tables cleared and ready for the next people. The beach was okay. A bit rocky but overall nice. They have enough beach loungers, but it doesn't feel like it because people often reserve loungers at both the pool and the beach at the same time despite there being signage to not. But that's more of a problem with vacationers than the resort itself. Highly recommend a nighttime beach visit. The breeze is lovely at night. Drinks were good. Good selection and generally well made. Our first 5 days we had Issa working at the pool bar and she was fantastic. Always happy and singing, and seemed to really focus on mixing drinks well. She was gone our last 2 days and her replacement wasn't quite as good, but still okay. The guy who runs the nightly martini/margarita/gin bars (if I'm remembering correctly his name was Carlos) is great. He was so friendly and worked hard to make everyone fun, yummy drinks. The staff in general just seem really happy to be there. They do everything with a great attitude and never seemed bothered if you asked for anything. Reception was super helpful getting us a shower since we had to check out at noon but our shuttle wasn't until 6pm. And the bell boys/front staff were always super eager to help with transportation questions for shopping etc. There is a trolley to get around which is nice if you're going with kids or someone older, but honestly it's very walkable. They have nice little paths as well that get you off the main walkway and give a bit more privacy. Rooms were nice. No matter what you turn the AC to our room was pretty consistently at 23.5 but it felt refreshing in comparison to the heat outside. Shower was warm. Tubs were a bit older and I probably wouldn't want to soak a kid in them but the shower portion was fine. Beds were cozy enough. We left notes for the housekeeping requesting extra water and they were always good to ensure we had plenty. Also the public/shared area bathrooms were some of the cleanest, best kept public bathrooms I've used. They must be cleaning them constantly. Honestly a great resort that seems happy to meet your needs and fill your requests, and they really just work hard to ensure you have a great vacation. Would go back again, with or without kids. They have plenty for everyone!!

Melia Punta Cana Beach Wellness Resort Adults: Wonderful Resort

Loved the Meliá Level! Great room, not in it much! Paid extra for the Level (worth it) Felt loved and cared for all 10 days, amazing food, amazing beach, pool was lovely, not in it much mostly beached! The true highlife was the staff, be kind to these folks!! The interaction with them was the highlight of the trip

Sunscape Coco Punta Cana: Satisfying Resort

My wife and I with friends spent a week at Sunscape, we found it to be a very satisfying resort overall. The beach is great and the rooms very comfortable, we had a recently upgraded room. Hint, If you can try and get a room in Block 4 very central. The resort appeared to be half full and the staff were very accommodating. The restaurants were good nothing spectacular the bonus being you did not need a reservation. The only negative was a sudden management rule that prevented regular guests fro [... read more]m using the Seaside Grill and making it exclusive to Sun Club members. This was uncalled for and one could say a breach of contract as it is listed as one of the restaurants that o e would have access too. We would go back despite this one negative.

Bahia Principe Escape Ambar: Our 9th stay at Ambar. Ambar was beautifully renovated during Covid.

Beautiful facility; huge. Lots of a la carte restaurant choices plus buffet restaurants. One of best beaches you will find anywhere. One drawback is that if you are a beach person there is a shortage of covered shade. You need to secure one with your towels before dawn!

Serenade All Suites Adults Only Resort: Awesome resort

The rooms are new and modern. Food is awesome ,even picky eaters should be able to find something along with any gluten or dairy allergies. Grounds are clean Most staff were friendly . Roof top bar and pool is a must , great scenery( on family side , but only adults only or preferred can use). Only one complaint was the Gourmet restaurant food took way too long to get . Great Beach can walk along for quite aways . Will definitely be going back to visit soon!!! Also if looking for a p [... read more]arty resort this is not it.
