I don't think you could go wrong with Secrets or the Royal in PDC. My fiance and I stayed at the Royal during our site visit and loved it. It's in the heart of PDC, the food and service were excellent, and there is a sister hotel next door that's a little cheaper and allows children. We had a tough time deciding between the two, but ultimately chose Secrets because we thought it had a more intimate feel, we liked the beach better, and I really liked Alejandra. I'm getting married in 3 months (!) so I'll be sure to post a review and pictures!
