Spa Hotels in Punta Cana

This was our 7th visit to EPC and it was a fantastic trip! We were in building 4 top floor the room was beautiful very clean and a great view. I did email ahead and asked for a couple of things in our room and they were there for when we arrived. Check in was very quick and the lady was really friendly. We went out on our first night there and ate at Magna and it was delicious we both had the ribeye and it ws cooked perfectly. It was great to see some friendly faces. We ate at all the restraunts apart from las olas. I have zero negatives about any of them. Intact there was some improvement from last year in seasoning and quality. Our favourite place was the cascade pool and the poolside service from emanuele was great we never had an empty glass the second week we had felix and another lady who were a bit shy at poolside service at first but towards the end they were out asking us what we needed. The only thing I would say is there was no pool concierge checking room numbers or checking on us. I wish they had a hendrix at the cascade pool as well as the other pool. Again he is just the heart and soul of the club staff! We had some pretty stand out staff members whilst we were there they are as follows. Adolfo - oregano and the grill he was just fantastic we didn't want for anything and always greeted us with a smile and ended the night with a hand shake. We also had a warm welcome from Nayomi and Gabriella theyre're wonderful. Adan in the Magna for breakfast and the grill for the evening he cannot do enough for you, always has a little chat and welcomes you back home. Jose-Felix in spice again tendered to our every need, he was always so welcoming and the food in spice was incredible, the dragons kiss was delicious. Our absolute favourite restaurant this year was Chez Isabelle and Raffiel went so far above and beyond for us the food was incredible the service though was outstanding he is so professional and takes great care in what he does. We loved this place so much we ate there the most. The prelude bar is our favourite bar to sit and have a drink and a cigarette after our dinner. Alexandra has been there since i can remember and her service is impeccable she always says hello and makes sure we are all OK and we have chat. However the star of the show along side her is Berroa. He is hands down the best bartender in the entire resort. He made sure we were ”hydrated” his skill of managing that bar was incredible, we even made up our own drink ”hannah sour” he laughed with us, sang with us and honestly made our holiday that little bit better. We cannot wait to come back to see him Alexandra and Hector. 1 thing I was a little unhappy with was the work going on at the cascade pool which we were not told about before hand or upon checking in. It didn't ruine anything and if anything kept the numbers down however I do feel that it should have been mentioned before hand. One other thing which I would like to request is a little ste

Let me start off saying, I stayed at a RIU resort in Jamaica and my experience was totally different from the location in the DR. My friend and I are currently here and have been disappointed the entire trip. Our room has not had A/C the entire time we’ve been here. I’ve submitted 10 request over the past three days and the staff is just closing out the ticket without fixing the problem. We even went to the front desk and asked to be moved to another room and still wasn’t moved. We are literally waking up and going to sleep hot and sweating. The room also has ants(in picture) so I spent the first night being bit. The plates at the restaurants aren’t clean and some of the staff are using their bare hands to prepare the food on the buffet line. Something was floating in the drinking water(pictured) also it smells like sewer on different parts of the resort. No face towels No straws(have to put your mouth on the cups) Dingy towels Dirty pool I will NOT stay at another RIU Resort after this experience. This resort should not have a 5 or a 4 star review.

I went with my two good friends on our yearly girls trip, and then my mom arrived for her bday. We all loved how beautiful and calm the beach was and all the amenities but we thought the food and drink was not on par with other Secrets or All inclusive hotels we have stayed in. I have stayed at Secrets the Vine Cancun 3 times, Hyatt Zilara Punta Cana, and Hard Rock Los Cabos. Also thought that during the day the pool area was vary boring except during the activities (water aerobics, volleyball, zumba) but it would be cool to have a DJ or louder more fun music playing. It was also very hard to find shade at the pool and the beach, wish there were more chairs with umbrellas. The night entertainment was great at Desires and at the lobby especially the Dj and bands that played more upbeat dancing music, and Black Coffee got everyone to dance and was such a great vibe, we love him. Our concierge/butler - Osvaldy Guerrero Cedano is a true Gem, the best concierge/butler I've ever had. He was super responsive and helped us out at all times. It was my mom's bday and he had the room decorated with cake and Champagne and she loved it. He totally made her day more special. Ultimately I thought that this Secrets was more for couples where most Adults only resorts are a bit more fun and have more of a variety of people of all ages, for example girls trip, bachelorette, bachelor, wedding party. it seemed way more focused for couples and we all felt a bit out of a place. Lastly our room smelled like mold, I wish we had complained and had it changed it because on the last day our Concierge/Butler allowed us to checkout late and then enjoy the resort and use a room just to shower before leaving for our late flight. The room that we used the shower in was the same size but no smell of mold. The service was amazing though, all employees were super nice, kind, helpful and smily they made the atmosphere so great! Thanks for everything!

My family (2 adults and 7 yr old) had a wonderful time at this resort. Beach: Beautiful blue water with sand that wasn't rocky and rough on the feet! I didn't find many remnants of seaweed, so they did a great job of keeping it clean. Waterpark: We loved the lazy river and spent most of our time in it. The bigger slides that adults could ride were not visible from the main section and we did not see any directionals. Lifeguards kindly informed us of where to go for the larger slides. I recommend that you wear water shoes since this is a water park, but also the ground is really hot when you're not in the water. Entertainment: We enjoyed Snick Lounge. Bring cash to put into the machine so that you can play air hockey or billiards pool. Snick Lounge also has retro arcade games for free! We also checked the app to catch where character pop-ups would be to save some $$ and not do character breakfast (although I heard from another guest that the food was worth the $$ since they love lobster). Family Shows: The resort did a great job of putting on nightly shows to entertain families and let the children participate a little. Food: We pretty much ate all meals at Explorers Table (I think it was named something else before??). They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner buffet style. You can also get some items cooked to order at two of the stations there. BurgersPH was a fun experience. We enjoyed Dominican Night to experience local cuisine without having to leave the resort. Service: The staff at the resort were friendly and helpful; although we did run into one male server at the Explorers Table restaurant that wasn't too hospitable. Suite/Room: We booked a swim-up suite which left us disappointed due to the smell in the room and I found many mosquitos flying around our room every day (so they must not treat the outside area for mosquitos). Had I known before booking about the dengue virus (mosquitos transmit) that is rampant in Caribbean and Mexico, I would not have booked a swim-up suite. Other reviewers mention nausea and I wonder if they actually contracted dengue. Also, if you are family that likes to be around others and not secluded, don't splurge on a swim up...the infinity pool is much better and has a swim-up bar!

Our stay at Breathless was incredible; the room was great, the food was delicious, but the whole experience was taken over the top by our VIP concierge, Pablo. We have stayed in many top-rated hotels and resorts all around the world, but we have never felt so safe and comforted as we did at Breathless. We received a text message from our VIP every day about what activities would happen on the property and when. We were also told many times if we had any problems to let him know or if we were looking to have any experiences or see any shows. He was able to connect the dots with everything. We felt like celebrities and because of it we had an amazing trip.

My husband and I visited this resort for our 8th anniversary. We booked an ocean view Castle Junior Suite. Upon arrival, we had a piece of Black Forest cake, Dominican Cacao, and bottle of Mamajuana waiting in our room to celebrate. Our butler was Eric, and he was the BEST! He took us on a tour of the resort, and alerted us daily of activities and restaurant selections available. He was available via What’s App for any concerns or questions we had. As stated in other reviews, the beach is not clear blue water, but we knew that going in. I grew up going to “dirty Myrtle” so it wasn’t an issue for me. The seaweed is better on some days than others, but they have a crew that works their tails off raking the beach and trying to contain it. I also suggest water shoes and small steps because upon entry there are some large rocks and dips, but once you get out a bit, it is no longer an issue. The pool areas are great, and there are several to choose from. Someone was always willing to grab your towels and get you set up in a nice spot. Drink service was on point, we never had to wait long between rounds. Although tips are “included”, I would suggest bringing a little extra for that. I saw how hard the employees work, most in long pants in incredible heat and humidity. I would rate the restaurants 4/5. The first night at Blue Marlin was not good. I think our order was lost in translation. I put that on myself, for visiting a country where I don’t speak the language. I could have used Google translate. I would suggest that if it seems you are not being understood. I won’t name the waiter because again, that’s on me. In contrast, Bladimir and Danny as servers at the Steakhouse were great. That was our favorite restaurant so we ate there twice. We also had a nice dinner at Capriccio. The Casabella lunch buffet had a nice daily lunch selection, and you can also visit the smaller restaurants in Sanctuary Town, a small area across from the main hotel which has pizza, sushi, beer, and ice cream/sweets. The Wok was closed on our visit so we did not get to try that. Overall, there is a large selection to choose from and room service is available 24 hours with a $10 service fee. We enjoyed our first stay in DR, and would definitely consider rebooking this resort on a return trip.

This trip was amazing. The resort was beautiful and easy to navigate. The rooms are quite large and the location is isolated and quiet. The beach is beautiful, the food was delicious, the drinks were wonderful. The staff were all really friendly and the service was generally great. There are a lot of vegan and vegetarian options which was great! All the events were really enjoyable and overall it was a really relaxing and memorable vacation! Shout out to the activities director Miki for making our stay extra special!

What an EXCELLENT trip! We loved our 7 day stay at Excellence El Carmen. We went just the two of us for my birthday! A few highlights: 1. The most friendly waitstaff ever 2. Lovely rooms (we had a basic room but was still nice) 3. The gym was one of the nicest hotel gyms I’ve ever seen 4. I felt very safe at all times 5. Loved the pool scene - not too crazy/party like but def fun and friendly! A few not so great things: 1. I had some tummy troubles on our second day there - not sure how but it wasn’t pleasant. 2. The food was just okay. Not horrible. Not wonderful. Just ok. A few good meals but overall meh food. 3. Our room was right above the nightly entertainment so it was a bit loud after we went to bed but not awful. All in all, we had a lovely stay! Marco in the piano bar was AWESOME! Definitely go get a chocolate martini from him! Rocio & Juan @ the bar next to the main pool are just WONDERFUL! They always addressed us by name, and Rocio helped me celebrate my birthday the right way! They were fantastic! Thank you!!

Dreams Onyx is a great place to start, especially for families. Pros: The water park. There are three slides that are in working order…two of which are really cool. The lazy river is an awesome touch…not sure why every resort doesn’t have a lazy river. Rooms were really nice and clean…was fully content with rooms and daily service. Bartenders were great…service was impeccable. Our favorite bar was “The Mix” swim up bar in the waterpark pool. Especially Mis amigos Felix, Miguel, Moises, and Jomiset. They were a pleasure to meet, and made the pool experience so enjoyable and the highlight for our family. Drinks were great, but it was their level of service and interjection of fun that made “The Mix” incredible. Areas of Growth: The restaurants are good, not great. Service was always phenomenal, but food was just ok. Bar service is great, as mentioned above, but the resort references top shelf liquor…Stoli was about the best I saw and that was only at select bars. I really don’t need top shelf, but it was advertised. Not enough pool towels. If you didn’t get (pool) towels early, you had to go back to your hotel room and grab bath towels.
