  Not good!

  The best part of the stay was the staff, most were incredibly nice, happy and helpful. However, the resort itself was not nice. Day one room one, we just got in after not being able to sleep for 24 hours and we were put right next to a pool party that was booming. The sheets were dirty and so was the floor. We called the concierge who came and took pictures of dirty sheets and floors, and then they moved us to the Xhale club area. Room was fine except the door locked. Didn’t work properly from the start so at 11 o’clock at night when we wanted to go to sleep, we couldn’t lock the door and had to wait for them to come and try to fix. Of course, not only could they not fix it They were unable to access it themselves meaning we had to be here if we wanted housekeeping or any other service because they could not get in. This included their management. So room number 3 ! Room was fine, except it was impossible to get housekeeping to fill the body wash in the shower, we were forever asking for body wash, and they just kept bringing us bars of soap, clearly a breakdown in language. Assistant manager got involved who was very nice and they eventually moved us to a double room suite with an ocean view. This room was much nicer, although not to the standard it should be. Value for money is definitely not worth it if you pay for this. Again, more problems, body soap and shower was almost always empty despite asking many times for them to fill it. We took plenty of pictures and sent it to the concierge. The other issue is we kept having to ask for coffee every single day, it seems to be a chore to get what you need at this resort. The food was terrible at best, we opted to go next-door to the dreams resort where food was better but not great. There were days that the buffet was great and days where it was terrible. There is also a marketing ploy to try and get you to sign up for Their vacation club which no one likes to deal with especially for their measly $100 gift. Fortunately, we were able to avoid it after having nothing but problem after problem.. They did make us sign every single time we moved rooms to say we wouldn’t sue them which we found to be very odd, and not once did they give us a copy of what we signed. The worst part was probably the crappy excursions that are not worth the money, although I’m sure some people enjoy them. If you are well traveled don’t be fooled, hey are awful. Stick with the Excellence or other resorts that are well known. The attached picture is of a steak from their $300 romantic on the beach dinner. Unfortunately, it rained the night we were supposed to do it however, the place they put us was not romantic, and the food was quite honestly worse than the buffet. As you can see my steak was nothing but fat. Fat adds flavor but not in the DR.

  Beautiful Resort and we will be back!

  The staff and our concierge (Greselda) was amazing! The beaches and pool were beautiful, and the food was delicious in the Spoon!!! We felt very relaxed and wished we could have stayed longer! We enjoyed the entertainment in the evenings and the beach in front of the Xhale club had crystal clear water with its own corral reef you could snorkel at from the beach.

  Another Birthday Vacay

  Very clean resort considering the volume of people. The food is always amazing, and the entertainment is always fun and classy. Enjoyed the dancing and the wait staff who were always very welcoming and helpful. Had a great time and look forward to my return.

  Wonderful resort

  First visit to this is Hyatt all-inclusive north of Punta Cana was wonderful. Contemporary beach deco, there are ample pool chairs and beaches were best we have had in the Caribbean (we travel extensively St Lucia, Jamaica, Grenada and Curaçao to name a few). Service was quite good and language barrier is not an issue (if you were so concerned) We had a partial ocean view room and it was great I guess our room level qualified us for "XHale club" which had a lounge and our own pool if desired for use. The xhale club level also got us into breakfast at oceanview restaurant which was great. Plenty of water sports and several daily activities There are numerous pools — the main pool is closest to the beach. It is active, can be loud, sometimes too much IMO but overall is great. Towels are plentiful early but by mid-afternoon can run low You do not have to get up early to reserve a spot but if you want shade on beach would suggest by 8 or 9 at latest. You can rent beds or 2 level gazebo for the day. Highly recommend. There is another pool in center of resort with waterfall and bar. It is not for the faint of heart. There is bottle service and VERY LOUD music/DJ and activities and if your room is up near the lobby you will not be able to avoid it until it stops at 6pm, just FYl. Plenty of restaurants of different tastes. We enjoyed the buffet restaurant on numerous occasions. There is a nice candlelight beach dinner you can purchase.

  Romantic week in the DR

  Our stay was excellent. We enjoyed the time we spent on the beach and in the pools. The entertainment was ok. The food was great. Bring plenty of sunblock, a hat, cool clothes and lots of them. Some clips to hand your clothes on the line in the shower. If you forget sunblock you can buy some at the resort but if you can get to a gas station the price is MUCH better. Bring more medicine than you think you’ll need (tums, Tylenol, Benadryl etc). Bring liquid IV or something similar if you intend on drink a lot or spending a lot of time outside.
