The 10 best Resorts in Caribbean,

April 22, 2023 Darleen Reid

Lounging on smooth Caribbean sands can be more restorative than the most luxurious spa treatment. Stretches of white and black beaches spill into the coolest, bluest waters of your dreams. A Caribbean island is the perfect literal jumping off point for a snorkeling or dive excursion, and the sea life seems just as welcoming as the islanders themselves. Sipping a tropical a cocktail while the sun paints the sky in shades of tangerine, you’ll ask yourself: “Is this heaven?”

As soon as you arrive at the resort you are greeted with champagne. The staff were all really friendly. The resort was always clean and well maintained. The food was great and the service was very good. They had activities available to do if you wanted everyday. Housekeeping was very good the room was always spotless when we came back from our day out. Our concierge Matiel Reyes was always attentive and constantly checking in with us to make sure our time there was perfect. We highly recommend this resort. We are already planning our trip back.

2 weeks in paradise

Reviewed By Natashaxox

We travelled as a family of 7 to Dreams Royal Beach, for 3 of us it was our third time at this hotel, however when we last came it was Secrets not Dreams. Since changing to Dreams we did notice a lot of differences most not for the best, however still had a lovely holiday. There are 4 a la cartes which we found over 2 weeks became very repetitive as the menu doesn’t change however there were a lot of options to choose from on each menu. The hotel itself is amazing with beautiful pools. Punta Cana does seem to have a seaweed problem on its beaches, however this hotel worked day and night to clear this so it was nice for the guests, which didn’t go unnoticed. Would like to give a special shout out Karina who was excellente and had our drinks for breakfast ready before we even ordered them! Also Ceaser at the seaside grill and Yudetel at the interlude bar who was fantastic! If you choose to come to this hotel you will definitely not be disappointed!!

Perfect vacation!

Reviewed By 744alenay

Our vacation was perfect in every way! The resort is beautiful and service was amazing everywhere we went. We booked “the Level, suite, beachside” and were about 15 steps from the main pool and about a 30 second walk to the beach. I would definitely recommend upgrading to “The Level” if you can, it is worth it! The main lobby was about an 8 minute beautiful walk but there are trains that run every ten minutes as well. Our concierge Nathanael was the best and helped us with every little thing that we asked! He checked in on us via WhatsApp or in person every morning, made our dinner reservations at the restaurants, helped us book our buggy tour, and scheduled our Covid tests the day before our flight (this was mandatory at the time to return to the US). He helped our vacation run smoothly! The food was great with lots of options at all the buffets for breakfast, lunch, and dinner: salad bar, pizzas, pasta bar at dinner, omelette bar for breakfast, fresh fruit, so many desserts, and so much more! Between the four of us who traveled, we all found something to eat. The beach was very clean and well maintained. At the time we went there were a couple days where the seaweed was pretty bad but there is a tractor that comes around in the morning and afternoon to try to clean it up. We did not mind it at all though, it is the ocean after all! Prepare yourselves to be approached by people walking on the beach trying to sell you jewelry, cigars, excursions, etc. They are all very friendly and just trying to make a living. With a simple “no thank you” they will continue on their way. Overall, our stay at Meliá Caribe was wonderful and I would definitely recommend booking your vacation here!

Customer Experience Should Be A Priority...

This is my first day and I can already say I am displeased with my experience. It's definitely isn't a 5 star experience. I've already had to complain about cleanliness and my HVAC. I heard good things but I definitely do not have a good first impression of this resort. Wish I had gone back to Iberostar Grand where they have amazing customer service. Hopefully this will improve and I can update my review.

My husband and I have been here 8 times! Overall it has consistently gotten better. Service is great, renovations have been phenomenal, food is delicious. We always do the extras— rum tastings, wine tastings, spa, romantic dinner. This time we brought 4 friends. Resort is huge with lots of things to do. Perfect for a group. Favorites this trip were the spa, dinner at Toro, and the frozen mojitos.
