We loved it!

We recently stayed at the Punta Cana Hotel and loved it! We have a 14 year old daughter and an 11 year old son and stayed in a two bedroom beach casitas. The price on the travel website was significantly less than any other site so I was skeptical. We're not really the all inclusive type but wanted to try Punta Cana so we chose this resort. The food was fabulous...lobsters, steaks and even the pool side pizza was great. On our arrival we were told that the chef had invited us to be his guest and the guest of the sous chef at one of the resort restaurants and we were treated to an incredible 5 course meal with drinks, wine and some wonderful company.We never would have thought that they would have treated us so well with such a steeply discounted rate. We also snorkeled (which is just ok in the DR), played tennis, wind surfed, went on the banana boats, rented mini speed boats but our favorite memories will be driving around a golf cart to explore the property, the hammocks and long walks on the beautiful beaches.We walked for 45 minutes and were still on resort property. The staff was very friendly although their command of English and our understanding of Spanish created some barriers at times but all in all we had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this resort.
Last Minute Vacation

This hotel is connected to a Marina with real estate and the Tortuga Bay Villas and Spa, which are near the golf course. This means there are 5 miles of resort to use and explore. The grounds are well kept (they sweep the beach everyday), security makes rounds at night, and there are too many activities to take advantage of in a 4 day trip. All non-motorized activities are free. I learned how to windsurf thanks to XXX, and the beach has comfortable chairs and hammocks everywhere! The lobby service was wonderful-we were greeted with drinks; they fixed our balcony door 2 minutes after we called. The breakfast is amazing! It is a great idea to have the breakfast every morning. The only expense was the bottled water, which is expected at resorts. I only regret not staying longer.

We stayed for a family wedding. Common staff excellent, they will go out of their way for you. Hotel lobby staff and guest service staff were total snobs! AMT not work for our entire stay they would not accomodate and want me to pay for a taxi to go into town or airport. After I got VERY irrate by the service is when they gave in and appointed some one to take me. Make sure you check your bill at check out. Rented a golf cart and got a flat, they wanted to charge me $50 for a new tire, arrgued for about 15 mins and they finally gave in and removed the fee. All inclusive food was ok, pizza place VERY expensive, come on people, $9 for a mini pizza that was not even home made and $10 for a hamburger, give me a break. Pictures on this web site is not that accurate. The pictures you see is from the Six Sence Spa area, they need to show the ACTUAL pictures. Very nice pool, yes it is deep but there is a kiddie pool. Over all a very nice stay.
Most Beautiful Beach

The beaches are some of the most wonderful i've ever seen. No snorkling in front of hotel, as the sand is so fine. The staff was very nice. There could be a little more variety as far as the food goes. However, the breakfast buffet was sufficient. No night life, so if your in your 20's not for you!!!! Can't wait to go back next year
Would highly recommend - would definately go back!

Everyone was very friendly and very helpful. We enjoyed the peaceful serenity and the beauty of everything there. The breakfast buffet was outstanding and the evening dining was a treat not only to the tastebuds but to the eyes as well. We experienced several day excursions (swimming with dolphins, mountain tour, golf) which we booked right at the hotel. The only negative was when there was someone in the room next to us. The walls did not block the sound.
