I don't think I reviewed this after 7/06, but I'm not scrolling thru 710 entries to find out. My main consideration in choosing this resort was that it wasn't in a rainy season in July, unlike most parts of Mexico. Our trip started out bad, as we missed our plane (Delta wouldn't hold the door for 30 seconds) from Seattle,... more

Let's start with the positives because there weren't all that many. The beach and ocean are lovely (although not spectacular). The grounds are handsome and well manicured (although everything is spread out so you'll do a lot of walking). The staff is generally very warm (although largely disorganized and incompetent). Now that we've dispatched with the positives, let's enumerate the... more

We had an amazing christmas break week! I'll try to break it down easily..... Check in was a breeze, no waiting and luggage brought right up to room. We stayed in The Reserve in a Family Concierge suite. The kids were give beach bags, hats and t shirts. The room was stocked with suncreen, robes and slippers for the kids... more

Our entire family stayed at the Paradisus resort for 6 days over the Christmas Holiday week. We stayed in the Reserve Family Conciege and were very pleased with the accomodations, food and overall service. The Kids Club was perfect for our 3 girls ages 2, 7 and 11 and allowed us some time to ourselves while the girls went Horseback... more

Truthfully we don't know where to begin! All we have to say is that if you're traveling with an infant & younger children this wouldn't be the place to stay. What didn't go wrong during our family stay at this resort.. Check - In was a nightmare, our room was smokey, smelly & disgusting (not good when you have a... more

A four-star resort? Are you serious? After spending the week of Christmas with our entire extended family at the Paradisus, we found the resort grounds beautiful and well manicured, and we found the staff to be friendly, if a bit slow. Check-in was truly painful and slow, taking well over an hour even though everything had been prepaid. We're fairly... more

The Paradisus Punta Cana is a beautiful, expansive resort with magnificent landscaping. As many reviewers have said, the beach is lovely, with soft sugary sand and clear clean water. What an improvement over the many Caribbean resorts with beaches covered in seaweed, rocks and debris! The lagoon pool is huge and delightful, with perfect water temperature and plenty of shade... more

We found this resort a perfect place for familes. We have a 1.5 year old and were surprised to find so many ammenities for us. I would recommend this resort without any reservation for families like ours. The web site does not advertise the kid friendly aspects which were important to us. We stayed at the Reserve- gorgeous and swanky.... more

My husband and I divided our vacation to the Dominican Republic b/t the Paradisus Punta Cana for the first four days and the Paradisus Palma Real for the last five (see our review over there- we preferred the Palma Real greatly). We had a nice check in/ welcome drink and were taken to our room- we had a RS Ocean... more
