“Dream Resort”

Where do I begin? This resort was so beautiful and perfect. Luxurious and comfortable, all at the same time. Every minute of every day. Now, the people who work there make it even better.

Where do I begin? This resort was so beautiful and perfect. Luxurious and comfortable, all at the same time. Every minute of every day. Now, the people who work there make it even better. I have NEVER been so pampered in my life!! And especially after the past 1.6 year I've had (now a leukemia survivor)! So many special touches that meant the world. From the welcome at the airport, the arrival to the resort, navigating to our villa for the week, and the impeccable service we received while on the beach, to dining, or just hanging out, was out of this world. Our ambassador team, specifically, Cierra and Tommy, and the housekeeping team provided 24/7 service in a timely manner. They responded to our needs without hesitation. Manuel and Miguel, ambassadors, who provided us the BEST service on the beach and at the bar, provided us things we didn't even know we needed. Manuel, specifically, has the best smile, demeanor and compassionate care to his clients/customers. He went out of his way to make us the most delicious limeades and limetea!! How did you find him? I don't know what your pay is but he deserves MORE in order to keep him on your wonderful staff. Our meals were wonderful; again, impeccable service. The fresh fruit, breads, pastries, and yogurt as our starters each day were fabulous. One final thought....please make sure you hit the ecological reserve and the Six Senses Spa during your visit. So much more but i think you get the picture!!

“Intimate and elegant resort within a resort”

Our group of four adults (two sisters, one spouse, one friend) had a fantastic week at this intimate, elegant resort within a resort, located just minutes from the PuntaCana airport.

Our group of four adults (two sisters, one spouse, one friend) had a fantastic week at this intimate, elegant resort within a resort, located just minutes from the PuntaCana airport. Our 2 bedroom, 2 bath villa was 50 feet from the beach and perfectly set up for the four of us. We went the last week of May and virtually had the private beach to ourselves. We loved our morning coffee on the terrace, the bountiful breakfasts at Bamboo, beach walking and lounging time including kayaking and paddle boarding, bicycling and golf carting around the huge PuntaCana Resort property, massages at Six Senses spa, and swimming in the crystal clear lagoons at the nearby ecological resort. A highlight of the trip was a festive private bbq on the terrace of our villa. Dinners at Bamboo, La Yola, and Brassa (at the Westin) were excellent. All staff were personable and helpful; communicating any requests via our WhatsApp group worked well. My suggestions for improvement are relatively minor, not deal-breakers: upgrade all tv’s to smart tvs with Internet connection; hot tub needs to be hot; modify electrical outlets in the villa for easier access to charge electronics; supply dish towels and dishes in the kitchenette; switch to bottled water bottles that are easier to open; implement a pooled tip policy for staff. All in all this trip exceeded expectations and we would definitely return.

“One in a MILLION....”

UNBELIEVABLE. Let me preface this by saying, our last incredible vacation was at a Ritz Carlton Reserve property...and this was hands down above and beyond for us. There is a notable difference between service because you pay top dollar for it, and service from people who genuinely have a love for what they do, and invite you into their family as they do it. Fary and Carlos T made up our Embajador team, and blew our minds with special birthday surprises that went above and beyond - aside from all the reservations, excursions, and travel coordination. Angel, Yuneur, and Hector made us feel like treasured family visiting, and I was moved to tears at the thought of leaving them all tomorrow. I can genuinely say that I was truly surprised by my experience here, and will treasure every moment until we return - which I feel certain we will do. I branched out from my comfort zone to take this vacation, and I have zero regrets; and certainly look forward to returning to visit mi familia. ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thank you to everyone that I didn't name for our amazing experience - we treasure each and every one of you!!!

This place is outstanding. It is secluded with excellent service and tasty food. Our oceanfront room included a golf cart to go to other restaurants and bikes to explore the area. The room was clean with lounge chairs and an umbrella overlooking the ocean. The beach was steps away where we had again our chairs, umbrella, and excellent cocktails. We had our own concierge for dinner reservations and questions about outings in the area.
