"Review of Excellence Punta Cana My wife and I recently celebrated my 41st birthday at Excellence Punta Cana, our first trip to the Dominican Republic. It exceeded all our expectations! After weighing the pros and cons of an all-inclusive resort versus an Airbnb, we opted for the all-inclusive experience, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. From the moment we arrived, the quality of the hotel was evident. The adults-only atmosphere was perfect for a romantic getaway, and the outstanding service made us feel special throughout our stay. The amenities were top-notch, with beautiful pools, easy beach access, and a fantastic selection of drinks and meals. We splurged on the VIP package, which was worth it; indulging in ribeye and tomahawk steaks every night was a highlight! Overall, our stay was nothing short of terrific. The ambiance, the weather, and the friendly staff all contributed to an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend Excellence Punta Cana for anyone looking to relax and celebrate in style!"

"I saw rats and garbage on the beach "

"We spent seven days in mid-January 2025 staying in the VIP rooms of building 4. We had a jacuzzi tub on our deck which was easy to fill and was always cleaned the next day by the maid service. Our room was very large and it lacked nothing. We had a quick jaunt up to the Sunset bar and pool on the top of our building which we did often. We really appreciated the beach and how many staff worked all day to keep the sargasso weeds raked up and off the property. A quick stroll to the north shows what happens when nothing is done. This made the Serenade beach totally enjoyable as was swimming in the ocean. There were no maintenance issues. Food was fun in the buffet. The Japanese and Italian restaurants were fun. The steakhouse could use a better menu and more attentive staff. By far the best restaurant was the Gourmet and it is no wonder it is hard to get reservations there. The only thing we used a credit card for was selecting wine off the wine list at dinner. The house red was just okay... We never left the property and had no desire to go on ATV tours etc. We just wanted to be spoiled and that is exactly what happened. "
