which resort in Punta Cana?


Recommended Posts

Hey there!  My fiance and I have settled on Punta Cana for a wedding (hopefully next fall), but we're a bit stuck on which resort to have it at.  Affordability for guests is a big consideration.. and obviously food, drinks, relaxation, and fun.  

 

We're staying at the Majestic Elegance in January for a few days, and are also going to look at Melia Caribe.  Does anyone have suggestions for other resorts that we should look at while we're down there?  

 

I appreciate your help!

When we did our site visit we wanted to look at the Majestic Elegance but we were not able to because we did not have an appointment.  I have heard nothing but great things about the Majestic properties though.  We stayed at the Melia Caribe and we looked at Dreams Punta Cana.  We also looked at Riu Palace Punta Cana, which is the resort we decided to go with so ofcourse I will suggest looking there :)  We were very limited on time when we went but if we had more time I would of wanted to check out the Hard Rock too as it seems like such a big fun resort.  We will prob take a cab and go to the Hard Rock one night while we are in DR for a night of gambling and just to hang out.

 

Good luck with your decision!  Enjoy your site visit and let us all know what you decide!

What did you think of the Melia?  We booked the Jellyfish for wedding and reception, but are working with a TA to book our resort.  The Melia is super close to the Jellyfish, which is nice, but I have heard somewhat mixed reviews of the resort itself.  We are also considering Dreams PB PC and ME/MC.

I attended my brother's wedding at the Excellence Punta Cana in March of 2010 and it was absolutely beautiful. I'm actually considering the Excellence in Mexico because of how wonderful their wedding was and how awesome my sister-in-law said they were to work with.

 

Her day went off flawlessly. We had about 40 people that traveled with us and we all had an amazing time! The customer service was exceptional, the rooms were great (not very updated, but not bad), the pools, beach, entertainment and activities were all great.

 

The only reason I'm not going back there is because there will be a lot of the same people attending my wedding and I want to bring them to a different location.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
