Cheap Hotels in Punta Cana

"I had a wonderful experience at Caribe Deluxe Princess. Traveling solo felt easy thanks to the warm and welcoming staff and animation team. A special thank you to Eunice for her kindness and positive energy and Xavier from the animation team for keeping things fun. Also Belkys, who cleaned my room and was incredibly sweet. The resort is beautiful and well maintained, with a great evening atmosphere in the lobby. The buffet was good, and while some items were repetitive, the options were plenty. I also tried the Dominican à la carte restaurant, which I really enjoyed. The beach and the sunrise were absolutely spectacular. Overall, a great stay from start to finish and I would definitely return. Thank you ❤️"

"The owner, Marco was a life saver! He knows everyone in town and directed me to the services I needed, such as mobile Internet. One of the staff there named Victor was a great help for me in town with translations and even helped me carry groceries. They have a restaurant with awesome food. It’s just a block away from the beach. They are basic, not so fancy, but everything I needed. Most of all they have a great staff, helpful… and that goes a long ways with me."

"This is a large hotel complex where accommodation is spread out over a very wide area in separate residential buildings/villas. There's a tram/golf cart service within the complex, which in theory is great, but in practice, the system is annoying: the carts wait at the end of the line until they're full, meaning you often can't get on if you're picked up along the way. Sometimes several carts would be queuing up. The rooms were mostly clean. I stayed in two different rooms myself. However, the shower water pressure was weak, and on a few mornings, only lukewarm water was available. One morning, pressure washing started in the pool area around 6:00-6:30 AM, which isn't exactly pleasant when you're trying to sleep. The food is generally 3/5 quality. Not gourmet, but not a disaster either. The pizzas at the buffet were better than at the actual pizzeria, which says something. The pizzeria's 'thin & crispy' was more like soggy dough than thin and crispy pizza. In the same place, the lasagna was quite alright, and it sometimes appeared in the buffet as well. I'd skip the sushi restaurant entirely: watery rice mush with a piece of fish thrown in. At the Mexican place, I got the wrong order, and at the Indian restaurant, the food wasn't spicy or hot even when specifically requested. There are many restaurants and plenty of choice, but in many places, customer service and quality are severely lacking. Generally, the male employees gave a lazy impression, as if they were just doing the bare minimum. Female employees, on the other hand, smiled, chatted, and clearly made more effort. There were exceptions, of course, but few and far between. Hygiene also raised a few questions. Birds flew around the food if you left your plate unattended for a moment. Once, I saw a bird fly into the steak restaurant area, where dishes were being prepared. Towels are changed often, but in the evening, they might not be available. Also, you didn't always get your towel card back when exchanging towels, at least not at the quieter pool's towel station. The drinks selection is quite simple: beer, red and white wine were practically all of the same quality. The cocktails felt like they were all made from the same bottle, just with a slight change of color. You can get better for money, of course. On the positive side, there's a different show every evening and activities for children. Waiters also circulate around the area. However, I missed having water stations where I could refill my glass myself without queuing behind food trucks or cocktail counters. If you get the hotel cheaply and your main purpose is to be at a large resort, eat at the buffet, and indulge in alcohol, then it's fine. The facilities are good, but in terms of service, restaurant quality, and practical arrangements, the overall experience remained quite mediocre."

"This resort was beautiful and had lots to do. Children are allowed, there’s a kids area and even a teen hang out. There are multiple pools and a beach. There are about 5 specialty restaurants that open at night, but require reservations—I ate at Fogo and it was delicious. During the day, there’s a buffet snack bar, coffee shop, and icecream bar available, plus a sports bar that’s open 24/7. In the evenings, the lobby has entertainment, including shows and a DJ. Theres a trolly that comes every few minutes to take you around the resort if you don’t want to walk. One of my favorite parts was the beautiful wildlife roaming the resort and the amazing service staff—most were very friendly and welcoming. I wouldn’t consider this a party resort; it’s more geared toward families and low-key fun. Definitely check out the beach bar—John and Gerson are fantastic bartenders, very friendly and entertaining. There’s also a snack buffet there that overlooks the beach, so you can enjoy a nice breeze while you eat. I traveled Solo. My only downside was the rooms. They each had a balcony, and really could have been great, but cleanliness could be greatly improved. I had to change rooms twice—first due to the AC not working, then because the balcony door wouldn’t lock. All 3 rooms weren’t very clean mainly the bathrooms. Im not a picky person so By the third room I had both locked doors and ac, so I just went with it lol. On the positive side, they did upgrade me to a larger room, which I appreciated. I did feel like some of the front desk staff was not very friendly or accommodating. Neither of those issues were my fault and it seem like a bother or hassle for them to swap my room. Overall, it’s a lovely resort with great amenities, and a relaxing atmosphere. I’d recommend it if you’re looking for a safe, beautiful place to unwind with family or enjoy a laid-back vacation."

"Absolutely Incredible All-Inclusive Experience! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This was hands down one of the best vacations I’ve ever had! From the moment I arrived, everything exceeded my expectations. The hotel offers unlimited drinks across several bars and unlimited food from a variety of restaurants – there’s something for every taste. Whether you're craving international cuisine or local flavors, the options are endless and delicious. The in-house entertainment was top-notch, with plenty of activities and shows every day and night. The private beach was a dream – complete with day beds, crystal-clear water, and plenty of space to relax. The pools were stunning too – perfect for both families and adults looking to unwind. One thing that really impressed me was the 24-hour on-site doctor’s clinic – such a thoughtful and reassuring service to have, especially when traveling. A small heads-up: the hotel is a bit far from the airport and the city center. We had a rental car, so it wasn't an issue for us, but I didn’t see a shuttle service offered, which could be inconvenient for some guests. Planning ahead for transportation would be a good idea. That said, everything else about this place was absolutely amazing. The service is top-notch, the staff are incredibly friendly, and the overall experience is just unbeatable. A must-visit destination – incredible value for what you get! 🌴🍹✨"

"It's normal, but it's not worth waiting for anything special. Cleaning and changing towels every day. Breakfast is only 3 options for choice, one of which is always absent. There is your small beach club with a bar at the second hotel on the beach in a pedestrian accessibility. The staff is very slow, as well as everywhere in the country. Before New Year's Eve, they asked the tug to clap the dress, we never brought it. And the room is a large closet and no shoulder hanger. No refrigerator. Big balcony, no chair on the balcony. Everything is somehow unthinkable"

"It has been a pleasant stay. The customer service provided by the hotel has been satisfactory in general. The all-inclusive offer could be improved from my point of view. And for that price it could have included the transfer. Improvable facilities, especially the gym, which is not suitable for this hotel, is very small and inaccessible, it seems like a maze to enter. And the spa is also very poor and not even included in the offer of the all-inclusive package with a superior room. When in Spain 90% is included both services, transfer and spa. Great hotel, great chain, but my face of satisfaction for some other things remains indifferent for that reason... The variety in the food buffet was not too much either... it is compensated by the customer service and the environment of virgin beaches. Then a detail is the overweight in terms of street vendors outside and inside the enclosure...even with the massages..."

"Food and drinks were subpar but I guess one should not expect much for an inclusive resort. The room had a broken safe and phone which took 2 days to replace because they kept telling me to call back. Location was nice and is family friendly. "

"Overall experience was good, and would return again. The only unfortunate part that there was a lot sea**** on the beach in which you could not enjoy."

"Bathrooms need some renovation. After taking a shower, the whole bathroom gets wet. Also,breakfast options should be made more foreigner friendly as well as employing people who can speak English. Overall, it’s a comfortable place to lodge with big comfortable beds and nice swimming pool."
