Feel lately like you're living in a black-and-white world? Perhaps you owe yourself a vacation, in Technicolor, at Barcelo Punta Cana. This beach resort, renovated in 2010, has given itself a vibrant, multi-colored, Mediterranean-style makeover. You'll be instantly uplifted by the kaleidoscopic ambience of this all inclusive resort, which features 798 guestrooms, resting beachside to the emerald swells of the Caribbean surf, on the eastern coast of the Dominican Republic.

The service was excellent
The service was excellent and the employees were so helpful and almost everyone could speak english! However, the people from other countries were very rude and would cut lines without even waiting. However, this is not the staff's fault and I would highly reccommend this resort. There was a show every night and the buffet was always open.
Our flight was smooth. Our check in a bit delayed but our room was well worth the wait. Oceanview with king size bed. View of the pool as well. Food was just ok and reservation were hard to get but overall our stay was pleasant.
We stayed at this resort in January 2012.
Overall I loved my experience at the Barcelo Punta Cana, however the day of arrival our room was not ready by check in time and we had to wait almost three hours to make it to our room, in the mean time though we were able to leave our luggage with the bellhops and walk around the resort, with our all inclusive wrist bands, we were able to have a few drinks and eat while we waited.
The daily housekeeping service is not great either, our room would get cleaned up very late in the day even if it was not ocuupied in the morning,
The water pressure in the shower OMG!!! it was awful!! I felt like we were taking showers with a water gun, almost no pressure and we had to complain serveral times in order to get our hot water fixed as well! We were offered a different room but I didn't want to give up my room because of the Ocean view as well as the proximity of it to the beach!!! I was on the fourth floor in a corner room so perhaps the top floor rooms have less water pressure than the bottom ones.
Aside from those three things everything else was GREAT!!!! the staff at the hotel was very helpful and courteous, the entertainers were amazing, the beach is INCREDIBLE!!!! and the food and drinks are abundant and never ending, They have different reservation only restaurants which I though were very good, specially their Japanese and Dominican Restaurants. I would go back to this resort but they better have my room ready on time and have proper water pressure in their showers.
My experience was amazing, one of the best vacations i've ever taken in my life and highly recomend this resort to anyone!
M husband & I had the time of are lives. The Hotel, Food, Service & Entertainers were amazing. We plan on doing it again every years for are anniversary.

two questions
1- the promotion rate from sept 1 - october 31 is $649 with $100 instant savings. The dates I choose is 10/13 - 10/17. The final rate was $759. What determines the entire package to become higher than the promotion?
2- I am looking for a hotel with your promotions that has horseback riding nearby. Can you recommend a such place
Thanks

What We'd Change
Necessary items, such as sunscreen, can be pretty pricey at the resort's shops. Bring plenty with you, and you'll have no problem getting oodles of pictures of your healthy and well-protected bronzed bod.

Hotel Description
Barcelo Punta Cana: Luxury in Technicolor
Feel lately like you're living in a black-and-white world? Perhaps you owe yourself a vacation, in Technicolor, at Barcelo Punta Cana. This beach resort, renovated in 2010, has given itself a vibrant, multi-colored, Mediterranean-style makeover. You'll be instantly uplifted by the kaleidoscopic ambience of this all inclusive resort, which features 798 guestrooms, resting beachside to the emerald swells of the Caribbean surf, on the eastern coast of the Dominican Republic.
No one cares if you hit an errant shot at Bavaro Golf Course, just 20 minutes from Barcelo Punta Cana. Opened in 1991, this 18-hole, par-72 was originally designed by renowned architect, Juan Manuel Gordillo. The course, with three tee sets for ladies, amateurs and professionals, was redesigned in 2010, by P. B. Dye, and features 6,710 yards of holes bordered by thick vegetation, amid a large lake that dares you to slice.
Metamorphosis Spa, enlarged and expanded in 2010, includes two hydrotherapy machines, three massage cabins, two Jacuzzis and more to handle any and all your pampering needs. Enjoy a Caribbean Vitamin Cocktail, or a soothing, natural, aloe-vera body wrap, before a Shiatsu massage, or Scentao hot-stone therapy. While you're there, take advantage of Metamorphosis' salon for a French manicure and pedicure, so you're properly prepped for an unforgettable night on the town.
If you're a sun bunny, you'll find respite at the free-form, lagoon-style pool, complete with swim-up bar, while the munchkins take advantage of the adjacent kid's pool, where they'll find an in-water jungle gym, including a water-spraying palm tree and a giant frog. Or claim your spot on one of the largest swimmable beaches in the Dominican Republic, on the shores of Playa Arena Gorda.
When you get the munchies, you'll find El Marlin satisfies any cravings, including old-fashioned barbecue and seafood delicacies. Or take your cravings on an around-the-world tour of international fare at the aptly-named Roma, Tokyo, and Paris. From amenities to munchies, Barcelo Punta Cana Beach Resort offers a host of colorful ways to savor your well-deserved vacation.
