Best hotels & accommodations in Punta Cana

This place is certainly a 5 star resort, but it's the subtle kind. There's nothing about the facilities, food, amenities, location, etc. that's gonna knock your socks off- they're all great, just not overly luxurious. Where Excellence El Carmen WILL knock your socks off is in the service/staff. I'd like to think I have a pretty well-defined perspective on this: in m...

I absolutely love the grand Bahia Principe Resorts. We originally booked at the Punta Cana side of the resort but found the amenities bleak and lackluster. food was subpar but the resort itself and hospitality were beautiful and welcoming. We upgraded to Ambar on our second day and didn’t turn back. My heart is really at the Esmeralda because even though Ambar is adult...

Have not been to this hotel since 2010 but nothing has changed in regards to resort look. Food & service were exceptional at all eating places. Bar staff could not do enough & were also exceptional and drinks were probably the best made I have had. I have been to Punta Cana 6 other times this year and stayed at other resorts rated in the top 10 and this was definitely ...

Service was awesome! Someone was always available to help. The wait staff were amazing!! A few stood out more than others & rightfully so we tipped them more/ better as they were exceptional! Secrets is a great place for couples! Punta Cana was wonderful definitely going back! And will try breathless or another hotel that time. The experience was great for my bday & fo...

First time in the Dominican Republic for my daughters as a birthday gift. They had a nice experience. They had the Elegance Club Room, Staff in the entire resort was excellent. The rooms were nice and clean. The location, the beaches, the water were awesome. My only concern was the food, they were really disappointed. They will keep anyway a good memory of their sta...

Clean, comfortable rooms, good food, good service. I came to the resort for a week as part of a wedding party and was a little concerned about negative issues brought up in reviews. Negative things that were reported by others that I did not experience: Internet service - good everywhere, queues for restaurants - none, aggressive sellers on the property - not aggress...

Reynaldo went out of his way to make me and my boyfriend happy. We were celebrating his birthday and everything went amazingly!! Even when there was a little problem it was taken care of or made up for by something else!!! The servers and dancers are amazing!! This is a place that makes you feel welcomed and free on vacation. It is quiet and away from everything else b...

By far the best vacation I have ever been on. Let me tell you, this resort caters to your every need. It is so cool to have a Butler looking out for you the entire stay making sure you are experiencing the best of the resort. The rooms are immaculately clean and very spacious. We had a room with a beautiful view and also had a Jacuzzi on the porch/balcony. I will c...

This resort is advertised as a 5 star all inclusive experience with gourmet restaurants. Instead of the concierge curating your experience you have to stop by their office everyday to make dinner reservations for the best restaurants. They trick you and tell you they are full when in fact half of the restaurants are empty. Employees working in the resort use unnapropri...

In a word, Spectacular My wife and I spent 8 nights, and we enjoyed every minute of our time in the resort. Beginnig with our check-in. Platinum is the way to go. The service from the start of our stay was excellent. We had decided on Punta Cana for our vacation and did our research reading reviews on many resorts. And decided on Bavaro Princess, #1 because of many go...

The rooms could be a bit cleaner but it's made up for by the service. Definitely get the cheapest standard rate possible an expect to pay an additional $100/night to update to Diamon Club (which you should do). Everyone is so friendly, the food is ok (the steakhouse is the best). I'm mostly Vegan and had to let that go to have a real meal. Its a drink and be merry type...

I have stayed in this resort for 11 nights with my family,in the beginning I was very disappointed because of our room ,we booked 2 rooms and one room supposed to be arranged for our anniversary after sending few e-mails and been confirmed that our request been added to our reservation but guess what ? We have received the worst room from the resort (entrance door brok...

I stayed in the tropical view double room. Upon arrival, one of the beds had hair all over the sheets and pillow cases. Housekeeping came and put fresh linen on the beds. There were other occasions where they did not clean the room even after I called several times to request and put the cleaning sign on the door. The mini bar was not replenished daily. We both were ce...

Some staff are helpful, some not. All room concierge hard sell with titles like “welcome pack” etc. Check in staff originally good, then slow and delayed for now reason. Shop purchases was cancelled as item didn’t have a ticket. The diamond club, hideaway and normal splits are a ridiculous pointless exercise in futility and perceived importance. One nexus guy wa...

Great location on the beach. Took a little time to get there from Punta Cana airport. Very friendly staff. We did have some issue with toilet not flushing a few times and called front desk. Food was good at main buffet and you must get to beach or pool before 830 if you want a chair and umbrella.

Attentive, welcoming and consierge level service. Staff knew our names after only two days and remembered our food allergies. Beach was clean and kept well. Spa was wonderful-relaxing oasis and we were able to use full spa facilities after our massages. Pools, grounds and buildings were pristine. Truly felt like we were in paradise. Anything we wanted we got, and th...

Beautiful property but slippery especially in the rooms bc of ac and humidity. Got inaccurate information from staff about everything. Don’t book Coco Bongo there. Do it yourself.

We had a car rental and arrived at Punta Cana about 7:00pm. It took another hour and half to find the Motel. No signage and massive pot holes in the road to get to the place. Lights did not work in the room and bath room. safe was locked. water in toilet kept running.

It was my first time in Dominican Republic but prior to going there I read several reviews. These reviews were very helpful helpful. Bahia Principe Esmeralda is a well kept property with staff who goes above and beyond to ensure you are comfortable. I got there the day before my birthday to celebrate alone but thanks to the wonderful staff I never felt alone. The room...

Had reservation at Grand Bahia Principe Bavaro. Waited 30 to 40 minutes to then be told we have no rooms but we will upgrade you to Amber Green . Then 30-40 minutes later they tell us we only have room for 6 of the 8 so 1 couple will have to go back to the other resort. We said no and argued a while and finally all got at the same resort. Then our room key didnt work (...

excellent hotel in a very nice location. don't expect to obtain the top features of a top hotel like paradisus, however, if you just want a nice room, nice service, good food, nice pools with a right price this is an excellent option. i have booked a romance suite in may-2012, and when i was checking-in they offered an upgrade (to the service real room) for a fee of...
Cheapest hotels in Punta Cana

I was very dissappointed with the staff and the accomodations ! Booked a one bedroom apart. about one month in addvance, when i got there was none avail.The staff did not speak English as advertized on the site.The room that I did receive had numerous problems , Aircon leaked on the bed, Bathroom cieling leaked.I woul not reccommend the place to anyone.

We had a large group staying at Presidential Suites but needed a room for 2 more people. This hotel was perfect. Close by and a wonderful staff helping us out. They were super accommodating and helpful. It turned out to be a nice get away from the big group!

If you are not expecting 4 stars pampering from this place you will probably like the hotel. The entrance hall is the only place that has (very slow) wifi. It is good to disconnect for a while but if you need to have connection (like we needed for booking things during the holiday) it's not even available. Tropical Princess and Caribe Club Princess are just the same ho...

this place was close to the beach, a short walk down the street. close by were laundry, conveniance stores and atms. the hotel itself is not flash, pretty standard. it has 3 pools for some reason but i guess during peak season it fills up. the staff were friendly and helpful. the all inclusive is alright, not the best food but you can get satisfied with most of the foo...

Great! Friendly and extremely helpful staff, very comfortable bed, had an awesome burger and chicken soup in the restaurant. I think it may be a lil pricey and there's a 28% sales tax on everything! Other than that, I'm glad I stayed at Four Points. :)

I was supposed to stay a week, and I left after only two days. The shower drain was plugged, and when I asked the front desk to have someone fix it, they informed me it would be an extra charge.

Had a huge problem at check in due to reservation being booked incorrectly. Tried to resolve with customer service & had to pay additional $850.00 at time of arrival! Wasted entire afternoon & was quite upset! Also did not realize transfers to/ from resort were additional & was told WiFi was free & was rather expensive! Otherwise enjoyed a lot!

This hotel is advertised to be five stars. I don't who went there to check it, but it is definitely not worth more than 2 stars. It is rundown, dirty, disgusting, and I'm talking about their best room, which they gave us after we complained about the even worse privileged room. It is an amazing rip-off! We have been in the best resorts in the world on several conti...

Very bad supervision, rooms oversold, employees obeying distorted manager decisions and not happy with their impotence in dealing with absurd orders and policies.

It's a nice hotel. Their food is average, it would of been better if there were more Dominican good and the food hotter then warm/cold. I had a problem with the room- the AC wasn't working so they switched us TWICE. But overall it was okay, they need more activities. The beach was really dirty with seaweed but it's not the hotels fault so I can't blame them.

The recently renovated rooms and other facilities are very nice. Adults only makes for a relaxing atmosphere. The food very good and I appreciated the variety. Good selection of entertainment as well. The only complaint would be that the service was not always attentive and sometimes slow.

More about Punta Cana
Accommodation in Punta Cana is in full supply, with tens of thousands of hotel rooms ready to welcome guests into this idyllic environment. Many hotels are located in Bavaro where they are joined by a selection of boutiques, seafood restaurants, and bars.
Most tourists check into their resort and spend as much time as possible on the beach. In all, the broad and beautiful beaches of Punta Cana – including Arena Blanca Beach – cover 20 miles of exclusive ocean-front property. Each hotel can arrange a list of water sport activities, including scuba diving, kayaking, and windsurfing. Resorts also arrange activities like water aerobics and beach volleyball.
It's best for tourists to stay near the hotel where they've booked a room. Each resort guards its slice of the coast, since their guests are usually entitled to complimentary food and drinks as a part of their vacation package. It's rare that one hotel trumps another when it comes to facilities, especially when staying with government-rated 4- and 5-star hotels near Punta Cana.
Punta Cana International Airport is an efficient facility with plenty of experience whisking tourists to and from these lavish resorts. The major hotels will meet passengers in the Arrivals Hall and take them directly to the beach.
