Caribe Hilton

"Clean "

Lopesan Costa Bávaro Resort Spa & Casino - All Inclusive
10/10 Excellent
"Spent my 35th birthday solo trip and it was amazing, great resort for families with kids but next time I would do adults only location, food and drinks were great !"

Wyndham Alltra Punta Cana All-Inclusive Resort
8/10 Good
"Beautiful facilities and friendly helpful staff. Loved the way the pool was laid out, very quiet on one end and progressively moving toward younger crowd near the beach."

Serenade Punta Cana Beach & Spa Resort - All Inclusive
8/10 Good
"I’ve been to the Dominican Republic many times and stayed at both high-end luxury resorts like Secrets, as well as more budget-friendly resorts like Catalonia Bávaro. I’ve also stayed at Lopesan, and unfortunately this resort would probably rank last for me. In my opinion, it’s definitely not a true 5-star resort — although there were still some positives.
Pros:
• The hotel was consistently clean
• Staff were overall friendly and fairly helpful
Cons:
• This side of Punta Cana has a significant amount of seaweed. If having a beautiful beach is important to you, I’d recommend visiting Saona Island or staying closer to Bávaro Beach instead.
• Food selection was quite limited. I’d rate the adults-only side around a 2/5, while the main resort restaurants were closer to a 3.5/5.
• The rooms showed a lot of wear and moisture damage. We noticed many room doors throughout the resort that were visibly damaged and in need of repair.
• Nightlife was very underwhelming — most things seemed to shut down around 10:30 PM.
Overall, it wasn’t a terrible experience, but I personally wouldn’t consider this a 5-star resort. I’d rate it closer to a 3.5-4 star at best, and I don’t think it was worth the $2,600 price point. Personally, I’d choose Lopesan or spend a bit more money for a higher end experience.

Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana an All-Inclusive Resort
8/10 Good
"We travelled in April with a group of friends and children aged 6-8 yrs old. It was a fantastic stay.
Pros: -beautiful resort, the rooms were very spacious and the grounds well maintained. If you look around you can always see staff working hard doing maintenance, they do a great job.
- so many amenities. Our family enjoyed the many pools, water park, arcade, VR room, mini golf, bowling. Some things cost extra but that was all made clear before we travelled so we were prepared for that.
- the beach is beautiful, however very rough. We still enjoyed it, just keep a close watch on everyone. Again this was something we knew beforehand so we weren’t surprised.
- the staff was all very friendly, this really stood out to me. It didn’t matter who we encountered, they were all lovely! Check in and check out was very smooth and they accommodated our request to be placed close to our other friends.
- food was great for all inclusive. Plenty of options. We liked not having to make reservations for most restaurants. We ate early (6 pm) because of the children, and we never had to wait long to be seated. There were several breakfast options, Isla was our favourite. Nice calm atmosphere and lots of fresh options. The coffee shop in the main lobby was also amazing! Also there are food trucks around the pools which was convenient with kids!
Cons: - very large, but this was not a huge hinderance for us. I will say the trolly system was excellent!"

San Juan Marriott Resort and Stellaris Casino
6/10 Okay
"The room was clean but you can see that repairs were needed. On the last day we noticed the water was coming up from underneath the floor tiles. Also the AC being at 65 room stayed at 70. Our room did have a mold odor. We could hear our neighbors sneeze through the walls. The pool and beach were great but wish that the pool was a little deeper. I preferred to stay in the kiddie pool since all the kids were in the other pool.
Our room did accommodate 3 adults . Ourselves and our daughter.
The cafe in the lobby does great coffees and breakfast. Expensive but delicious.
Checkin was another ordeal that we did checkin at 2 but room not available until 4pm. So we sat in the lobby until able to go to room. It is only 15 minutes from AirPort."
