Absolutely beautiful resort, upgraded our room and it was tremendous. Staff was spectacular, fun games around the pool, drinks plentiful, and beautiful beach. Nighttime shows were weak, and the food was average. I would definately go back without a second thought.
It had to be at least 8 years since we visited Punta Cana. To our surprise much has changed. The service staff were fabulas, the resort was beautiful, and the food was edible. Actually in spite of the few complaints that surfaced around us the food ranged from good to excellent. As for the staff you could not ask for much more. They were curtious, friendly, and always greeted you with a smile. Juan was our beach bar/'waiter. He was wonderful. My wife and I would go for a dip in the water and when we returned there was a drink waiting for us (cold drink). The only complaint may be some of the other guest did nothing but complain (a very select few). To be honest some thought that they only mattered and no one else existed. Bill Gates attiude but lack the funds to back it up. I feel sorry for those guests because they probably would not have been happy no matter what was offered to them. If you're single and looking for night life, forget about it. The resort was primarily families and couples. The casino was a joke and the night time enterainment was indoors. If you have small children, this place is for you. They cater to the kids all day and include night time activies as well. If you and your spouse/friend just want to unwind and relax with not much night life, then this pace is for you.Although some complained about the sea grass in the water, the beach was beautiful and warm. There is no way you can beat the price for what you receive in return.
The place was beautiful. From the resort itself to its wonderful staff and beautiful weather. The buffet and restaurants had great food and lots of options. The beaches were really nice and clean as was the pool. My only complaint was a leaky shower but not really a problem since I didn’t have to clean it up. The staff was more than accommodating. Would definitely visit again.
My boyfriend and I stayed at the Dream Palm Beach resort this summer and had the best week of our lives. Every minute of the trip was beyond our expectations. Our hotel supervisor that cheap caribbean provided planned our whole week full of private island tours, snorkeling trips, swimming with sharks and jungle cruises. After long days exploring we would come back to the hotel and be treated like royality. The staff knows you by name and was some of nicest people we have ever met. I would recommend this to anyone and we are already saving for our next trip back :)
The resort was really nice, but the best part of the whole trip was the lack of people. Nobody's going on vacation, so the resorts are empty (30% full). Had the romantic dinner on the beach. Was real nice for $200.
We visited Dreams Palm Beach Punta Cana Resort and would give it 4 stars out of 5. Pros: The staff was very friendly and very talkative. The 5 options for dinner were all delicious. We especially like the hibatchi restaurant and the Italian restaurant. The food was very tasty! The resort had TONS of options each night (and each day) of activities. One night we watched a movie playing on a big screen ON the beach, that was fun. And they had alot of activities on the beach as well, like snorkeling, parasailing, horseback riding, etc. But note that almost all of the activities cost extra. I spent one day at the spa and really enjoyed that. The staff was great and the accomodations of the spa were very nice. Cons: The pictures of the rooms were a little decieving. The bed itself was nice but the bathroom was a little on the "rough" side. Small and not as clean as one would like. Also the housekeeping staff was very slow. We requested a few things (extra towels and toilet paper) and had to place at least 5 calls and they ended up delivering the said items but it was 1 day later! The breakfast options were VERY slim. You could either place an order for room service (but only 6 items were on the menu) or go to World Cafe which had a breakfast buffet. The eggs were watery, the juice was watered down, and the other buffet items were just so-so. Alot of options mind you, but just not quality food. The lunch was just the same. You could order room service (pizzas, salads, etc) or you could eat at this little hut on the beach. It was great because it was convenient and you could wear your bathing suits. But all they served were hot dogs and hamburgers and french fries. And trust me, 4 days straight of hamburgers gets real old real fast. Also, we were not informed that this was a topless beach! I was shocked and appalled. And this was a family-friendly resort! I'm sure a lot of mothers were shocked to see this as well. Overall, this was a fun getaway. Not a romantic setting by any means, more of a party scene. The activities were endless (just costed extra) and the food was "okay". We would recommend this resort to friends who like to party. We, ourselves, will not be returning. Thank you. Please post to your website under reviews.
Our trip to Dreams Palm Beach was to attend a wedding. It was wonderful! Everybody, young and old, had a very enjoyable time. We still talk about it over a year later!! The bride, herself, complimented the resort for all the help they provided to make her day fantastic and hassle-free! Would higher recommended this for future brides!!!
Dreams Palm Beach in Punta Cana was a fantastic family getaway. We have small children and teenagers and ther was plenty to do for everyone! the beaches were clean and provided lots of shade for the wee ones but also had trmpolines and large pyramids to entertain the older kids. the only negative i can find was the lack of waves, the water was a bit too calm. The restaurants were fantastic! we especially loved the hibachi grill, and hanging out with the live music after dinner. The rooms were modern and clean, but they could have been a little more spacious and the room service was very limited-but that is typical at all-inclusives. Their service, however, was outstanding! From the restaurants to the lobby to the beach...everyone was super friendly and very helpful. The staff here is really great and our overall experience was fantastic. We trully recomend it!
The resort was absolutely beautiful. People were friendly. We took the upgrade for the specialty restaurants. The waiters at the restaurant on the beach appeared to resent women and made us wait a long time before taking our orders even though they were not very busy. Every other restaurant was perfect. The beach was beautiful but the water had too much sea weed to enjoy swimming in it but the pools made up for it. This was a great resort and a beautiful vacation. The casino however, was terrible and very, very small.
Dreams is a wonderful vacation experience. I had a fabulous time at this resort, and feel the amenities were nothing short of outstanding. The food was excellent at every restuarant on the premises, and I especially felt the steak restaurant on the beach was a great value with superb cuisine. I thoroughly enjoyed the Entertainment Staff at this resort, and felt they earned every penny of their salaries. I have also vacationed at a Secrets Resort in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico, which is a sister resort to Dreams; I cannot say enough about the experience at both resorts. I have recommended these hotel chains to several friends, who have taken my advice and also enjoyed vacations there as well. I would highly recommend anyone give Dreams a try on their next vacation. You cannot beat the atmosphere, the amenities, the food, the entertainment and the overall experience for the price. I will definitely use these resorts in the future!
