Hotels with pool and beach in Punta Cana

The beach team — Yohan, Youhansey, Elvyn, Lorena, Jeffery, Arhensay, and Nury — created a seamless, relaxed experience each day, while Scooby at the pool brought warmth, attentiveness, and an inviting atmosphere

The staff at the members pool and beach were also top notch—friendly, professional, and always making sure we were comfortable

Same goes to Richard and Jose, who work in the Main Pool Bar, are so great! They were the best bartenders I've met here. Orlando, that works in Market, is so caring for our wellbeing

The employees are all so nice, always ready to serve happily- and in here, I have to say: Scooby (Edward) that works in the Sun Pool, is a incredible person, excepcional charisma

We had a great time at the hotel, lot's of great food (especially at the Legendary's Pool)

The service, room, beach, and drinks were excellent, which I would rate 4. 2/5, and the dinners were outstanding at 4. That said, I have a few suggestions for improvement

It was a fantastic stay. Love the service and the attitude of workers there.

I had problems with check-in, I waited 1 hour longer than agreed and they gave me the wrong room, I booked a room and they gave me another and they didn't want to change it.

Try the french restaurant, good service and great food. Avoid the Rodizio restaurant , poor service , food just ok. Over all is a great hotel but some of the employees need better training .

Great hotel with helpful staff (Jefrey, Luis, Heilen at the reception desk ask for them they will help you ) GREAT entertainment at the pool with Marlon and Heiron awesome guys

We had a fantastic stay at this resort and I want to recognize some of the incredible staff who made our trip so memorable. Luisa at the front desk was warm, welcoming, and so helpful from the moment we arrived

Punta Cana is beautiful! The resort is very big and has all that anyone could wish. Beach is fabulous! The food is top notch. Service is fantastic! The rooms are clean

so much better than the last place we stayed (see previous reviews) the beach was excellent only wish there where more huts as you have to get up really early to try and get one

A huge shoutout as well to the entertainment team, particularly Jose, Luis, Gabriel, Yulainy, and Ray. Their energy, friendliness, and enthusiasm made the atmosphere around the resort so fun and welcoming

Deni, the bell boy, was incredibly kind and attentive, and Frank from the wait staff provided consistently excellent service throughout our stay

The beach is amazing, it’s in the top 5 best beaches in the world, everyone in the hotel staff works very hard to make your stay pleasant, worry free and enjoyable

The ocean water is not clear, so not the best for snorkeling but our stay was great - good food, good entertainment, good pools and GREAT drinks! While our stay was good overall, Miguel is the reason we will be back! The resort is incredibly lucky to have such an exceptional employee!

My husband and I, along with our friends, were vacationing at Barcelo Bavaro Beach this December. We just returned and can’t wait till next year to go there again. This is our 12th time in the same resort

She turns normal moments into memorable ones and guests into family. People like Keila are the reason vacations become stories you tell when you get home. Thank you for making this trip truly epic and legendary

Whether it was activities, shows, or just checking in to make sure everyone was having a great time, she did it all with real passion and a big smile. You can tell she doesn’t just do this job — she lives it

Keila Rijo from the Entertainment team is an absolute LEGEND. From day one she brought nonstop energy, genuine warmth, and that rare vibe that instantly makes you feel like you belong at the resort

I would also like to express my gratitude to the bartenders Marino and Glenys at the Platinum pool, as well as the bartenders at the beach bar

They are lovely and will help with everything. The beach is great pool crowded food beautiful facilities are amazing

What is most concerning is the lack of security — guests should feel safe leaving their belongings in their room without fear of someone searching through their personal items

Grand Bávaro Princess – All Inclusive was a great experience. The best part, without a doubt, is the beach: wide, soft sand, turquoise water, and a truly beautiful view

Overall, the service was very good: friendly staff, quick to help, and always with a good attitude. The facilities are well maintained, with several dining options and plenty of areas to relax

One of the best resort I had ever been! It would be perfect if there is also a free transportation to the airport but all was great! I will definitely comeback again..

The rooms were scrubbed daily, floors mopped and all requests followed as asked - Very clean! The staff and their service is what stood out the most - in the best way possible

It doesn't end there ; Ramon at Bluemoon has service that you could put up against anybody in the world ; Naomi at the pool bar made sure the drinks were never empty, all whilst keeping the energy up and having a smile - no matter the weather! All of the F&B staff were amazing and we didn't have a single bad experience

From the start, it was an amazing experience. Jose, our concierge, is the one who made the trip even better with his incredible service

We never had to worry about reservations, and he continuously made sure we knew about all of the activities going on that day

Even on his days off, he was available at any time - I would go back to El Beso just for his service

Overall, I would book this resort again in a heartbeat - it's a shame the trip wasn't even longer

Overall, my stay at the hotel was very pleasant. The staff were extremely kind and attentive, the food was excellent, the pools were spotless, the beach was beautiful, and the gardens were well cared for

It showed signs of poor maintenance, had a damp odor, visible mold in the shower corners, a loose toilet seat, and a leaking sink that required placing a towel on the floor

The changing room doors by the pools are on backwards so everyone can see in but you can't see out. We noticed a downward trend in the RIU hotels in punta cana since we started going there

The room was clean, pool hours were more limited, the equipment in the gym is broken and have been for years. The food was not as good as most other Riu hotels

We have stayed at lots of Riu hotels all around the world because we like the all inclusive service and pools

Aside from the room maintenance issues, everything else was excellent

We had a 7-night stay, we were a group of friends, the experience was wonderful, the beach in this area was spectacular, turquoise color and transparent water

It has been a wonderful experience, we came for 4 days and have no regrets so far. The children's kids club has been wonderful and entertaining for the children and there's plenty of adult entertainment as well

throughout the day and until late night, the food is pretty exquisite also tropical, American variety as well

First of all! Best butler is Carlos Rosario! You need to get in contact with him at your arrival, he will take care of all your needs and make sure you get a VIP experience! The resort is amazing with super nice rooms and views

The staff truly made our experience memorable, everyone we encountered was incredibly polite and attentive. Their warmth and professionalism deserve genuine praise

Great place! Very nice facilities, a good variety of pools, and an amazing beach. The staff at the hotel were very pleasant and attentive

My first all inclusive experience and it was beyond my expectation. I had a swim out room and was part of the preferred club, with a personal butler and food concierge to cater for halal food

The room was always very clean. The staff were ALL very friendly. The gardens/yards were always clean & tidy. The food was excellent every day…… except Monday (yesterday)

We booked a preferred swim-up room at the family pool, which was absolutely perfect for our group with children. The service we received was truly exceptional

Castillo, the bartender at the preferred family pool, went above and beyond every single day. He quickly learned all of our drink orders and always had our favorites ready

The place is not too clean. A bit worn out and the restroom disbaled seating has old rust and the drainage is not attached on the shower. The activities are fun and the food is top notch . Service is amazing too ..

Castillo is by far the best bartender we've ever encountered at a resort! Our butler/concierge Albert was equally amazing. He was attentive, responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay

Beautiful hotel, the proximity to the beach was good and will be back soon

We have a great time at the Grand Sirenis Punta Cana. The staff was very attentive and helpful. Sheila, our housekeeper, was very sweet, kind and very hard worker. She keep the room clean, tidy and stock up everyday

My first time in Dom rep. Hotel is great. The staff are excellent. Bar staff are very friendly. David is a great guy, very professional. The pools are beautiful. I would like to come back next year with my family.

what a lovely hotel some staff are friendly some are not , especially if you don’t tip !! Tipping is essential here or your holiday will be ruined !! very clean rooms lots of verity of food the restaurants are the best food , make sure you book straight away , but also tip again !! if your English tour definitely second best so just remember that

On our last day she made a special towel deco for the kids. Pedro at Expedia counter desk was always friendly and kind. He was so helpful that he upgraded our rooms to family suites for privacy and extra space

The resort was not too busy in September which was nice because we always found a spot on the beach, by the pool, water park and best of all they always had towels

Great little spots along the pool to eat and drink so you don’t have to go far. We will be back with our kids next time. I am so happy we came here! Thank you all!

The excellent service and quality of their hotel facilities. As well the quite and peaceful in the pool or beach area. The restaurants were also amazing with a great varity.

This was my first trip, my first resort and my first time outside of Canada. I am so happy, this resort was so amazing

However, many other staff members were less engaged and not particularly friendly (especially at the pool side bars). So, the overall service experience was less than expected with a couple glimmers

We had a wonderful stay at Wyndham Alltra Punta Cana and really enjoyed our time at the resort. The atmosphere, facilities, and service made our vacation very relaxing and memorable

The biggest one was that the toilet ran constantly during our stay, which was a little frustrating and made the room feel less polished than expected. The food was one of the more disappointing parts of the stay

Plenty to do the restaurant are all good and we enjoyed the buffet we liked the large buffet the best. Our rooms had excellent access to the beach pools and restaurants

Overall, Impressive Punta Cana is a good hotel. The rooms were clean, the organization around the resort was nice, and the beach was amazing — definitely one of the best parts of the stay

The pools are great, warm and they have activities in the pool to keep you entertained during the day. Though the floor is very crumbly and paint chipped everywhere but doesn’t ruin the overall experience of the pool

You really have to figure everything out on your own. If you’re stuck at the airport or trying to leave, the hotel does not help — you’re basically on your own

A few amazing staff members from the Buffet, Esperanza, Martha, the juice bar lady and some of the cook line folks -Thank You for treating us like family ! Great entertaining group ! Thx for spaghetti for taking the time to get to know you better

Beautiful Beach view , and it was clean the whole time we were there !

Love it! Nice Resort! Food is good and much variety, nice pools and beach, 5 of 5 star I’ll be back soon

The hotel grounds beach pool were beautiful, the rooms were average, beds not that comfortable, low grade finishes in bathrooms and rooms, the restaurants were average, but the food buffet (breakfast dinner) was excellent with plenty of variety

New years eve Party was family friendly and a 10! Very fun and lively and free for guests. Scuba caribe snorkelling was great

The room was clean and modern. The staff were amazing, attentive and polite and the food was good. I’d definitely stay at another RIU.

I have been to newer RIU properties for eg RIU Ocho Rios in Jamaica and it was beautiful there. But RIU Punta Palace is nice too. But not as new as RIU Ocho Rios. Still enjoyed my time because the staff was wonderful

Over all the resort was great! The food was good! Customer Service was outstanding! The only thing the WiFi wasn’t that great. The Riu party was lit we definitely had a time! I would definitely stay again!

Amazing place to stay with family, great food options and amazing service

When getting ready to leave, you can ask for the bellboys to get the baggage with you back to the lobby in one of the golf cars that they use to move around

Everyone works hard and goes above and beyond to allow an enjoyable experience. The resort was very well maintained, clean and beautiful. The pools and lazy river were awesome. We would definitely return in the future

People working there were always very helpful whenever assistance was needed. Food was tasty, and the room we booked (suite with swim out) was awesome

The place is very big, so be aware that there will be quite a bit of walking to get to the lobby (where most restaurants are)

Estalin was great and made sure our stay was comfortable and great.

Great first trip to this resort. Check in took awhile as the room was not ready when we arrived, but they sent us to go get drinks/ food at the beach. Love the long pools as it spread out guests

100% recommendable! The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, always smiling. They even gave us a complimentary late check-out because our flight was very late. A big thank you to all the staff.

Always had a pick of sun loungers! Food at the buffets were good and lots of options especially for vegetarians ( which is usually hard to find at these resorts)

Excellent! A wonderful beachfront location with very attentive service from all the staff. The facilities are fantastic, and the room was very nice and spacious

Plus, since it's not a very large resort, you can easily walk to all the facilities and the various restaurants. The food was very good, with a wide variety and different themed options

The best resort I've ever stayed at!!! I booked the Majestic Elegance but at the reception I was given an upgrade while staying at the Majestic Mirage, simply SENSATIONAL

We used the Privilege pool and the 2 attendants, Carlos and Daniel, were superb! There were plenty of towels and both Carlos and Daniel made sure we always had plenty of drinks and food! I recommend if you want pool chairs with umbrellas, you need to get them early as most are taken by 9:00 AM and only chairs without umbrellas are left

Additionally if you have a medical condition making it difficult to navigate stairs, please note that there are no elevators in the buildings so you may want to ask for a room on the ground floor (we did this at the time we made our reservation and the staff was great in accommodating the request)

The service at all the restaurants was great!! All of the bar service was great, with some of the bars serving top shelf liquor!! If you are a beach person and would like a cabana or chairs with an umbrella you will need to be out on the beach early as most are taken by 8:00 AM or earlier

From the moment we arrived, the staff made our experience unforgettable. Everyone was incredibly kind, welcoming, and always ready to help

Other members of our family ate at the Mexican restaurant and Route 66 and said the food was ok. No one in our group ate at the steak house as the steaks we like had a up charge of $50 to $100 per person

The Privilege buildings are #’s 6 and 10. When checking into the resort please let the bell staff know you are staying in a Privilege room as Privilege has a separate check in area

Honestly, I would like to give more positive feedback and review but I had better experience in 3 or 4 stars hotels around the world

I can't say enough at how wonderful the people treat you here

Majority of staff do not speak (or don't want to) basic English, so if you don't speak Spanish - you better find other place

My friend and I had a great time at GP Bavaro Suites. It's a beautiful place with a nice stretch of beach and numerous pools to enjoy. We indulged in the luxury and friendly service we received.

A fantastic week to celebrate my daughter’s wedding. Julisa was incredibly helpful in keeping things organized even when we had to move venues last minute. The entire resort staff were friendly and very helpful

The pool bar on the swimming pools are a must, you can enjoy having a drink while swimming. Ronald and Adrian, the guys there, are great Ambassadors of DR, telling us about the traditions

Probably the best bartender I’ve had at any resort. Israel at the buffet was another awesome server. Again, incredibly friendly and hardworking. Made sure you got everything you needed asap and did so without issue

José at the steakhouse was fantastic. Worked non-stop, super polite and friendly and made our kid smile to no end. And Sonia, our room staff, was an absolute sweetheart

The pizza shack is overcrowded with the feel of a feeding trough. The pool and beach snack bar doesn't let women enter in bikini tops. There are no star cooks in the kitchen

Family friendly hotels are usually a crap-shoot, but this one was nicer than anticipated. Food was great, resort was great and staff were excellent

From the moment I arrived, everything was amazing from start to finish!!! I highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a relaxing and fun all-inclusive getaway in Punta Cana! The resort complex is stunning, with gorgeous tropical grounds, and a breathtaking sandy beach with crystal-clear turquoise water

Lots of food choices, shows every night, loves the double sinks and double shower in the bathroom. Pretty of loungers and lots of sun or shady spots by the beach. We enjoyed all the restaurants at the resort

Miguel was the best server ever! We are here for our honeymoon and it was such a lovely experience! Our best meal of the week with phenomenal food at Oregano with server Miguel! We also had the romantic dinner next to the beach and Joan was our server and it was amazing! The service was incredible and the food was to die for!! Plus the view 🥰🥰 such an amazing dinner to celebrate our marriage!

This this is only my second time out of the country and my first time in Punta Cana and 1st all inclusive. My experience has been great so far. The room was great tho I wish I would have sprung for the beach view

My view is still great but nothing beats a beach view. The give you a glass of champagne when you arrive. There was a bottle of champagne waiting for me in my room

The resort truly lives up to its name, providing an experience of pure luxury and relaxation. What really made my trip special, beyond the stunning facilities and beautiful grounds, was the incredible service

His excellent service and warm personality made every visit to the Blue Bar a highlight. Excellence El Carmen offers a truly exceptional experience, and I can't recommend it highly enough

I’ve only tried 2 restaurants here so far but what I’ve tried at Oregano and The Grill has been decent. Wish I would’ve come with someone but Overall I will be coming back

Buffet at beach is the same every day but we switch it up with the Al la carte luncheon in the Gourmet restaurant

The resort is very clean from the beach, public bathrooms, landscaping, pools etc…The staff are always doing something. Our room was spacious, 1403, on the family side. Decently clean & housekeeping comes daily

The beach is phenomenal as is Darel our butler

The nightly shows were very entertaining - like having our own Coco Bongo experiences! They have an entire team dedicated to entertaining the guests with games and parties, so much to do! The food was fantastic - 5 restaurants to choose from and we never had the same thing for dinner twice! Can’t wait to come back!

Wonderful experience for a family vacation. Teppanyaki at Ma+Suri, and Le Gourmet are the best restaurants here. The buffet food is average, nothing phenomenal, but nearly on par with any buffet back in the states

We had a great time, had a room with the swim up pool, the bartender was amazing! Cristina of the team of animation was fantastic! Definitely will be going back! This was a trip to remember, my butler was incredible and arranged everything we needed
