Nov 02, 2025Average at best.
We went to celebrate two birthdays and our travel agent said she noted it on our account. I had to prompt them to put a banner on the room the day of my friend’s bday and they claim they had no notes about the occasion. Room wasn’t fully cleaned when we arrived and I had to ask for the sheets and headboard to be cleaned. The food was mid and often lukewarm/flavorless. Lucia is the best bartender on the resort. She is charming, friendly and good at her job. Entertainment staff did their jobs and tried to engage folks. Waterslides were fun even for adults. The resort was under construction and the elevator near our room was out for at least a day. Had to remind them the second day there to restock the waters in the mini fridge. Diogenes who worked near/at Seaside Grill was a pleasure. He was friendly and his happiness infectious. The spa staff were excellent. Some of the best massages we ever received. Beach was clean and chairs were plentiful. I was also there to consider that as a possible location for a wedding, but have decided to continue looking.

Nov 01, 2025Return to paradise
This was our second visit to New Preferred Club area which was not affected by renovation. We enjoy staying at this new area even though it is little bit far from the beach. Walk through mangrove is very pleasant, every day you may discover something new there. The resort grounds are very well designed and maintained. There are enough chairs by the pools and on the beach. There is no need to get up early in the morning to reserve the spot, unlike some other resorts we’ve been to. There is also new addition to the beach area with few cabanas which we found quite enjoyable. This being our second visit it was really nice to be recognized by the staff from last year. It really felt like we came back home. Our butler Billy made us feel like part of the family. Overall resort staff, especially at Preferred Club area, is one of the main reasons we came back and will probably return again. Renovation at main lobby presented some small inconvenience but was not a deal breaker and it will be great to see what improvements have been made if we come back next year.

Great overall experience.
The beach was beautiful and well maintained. The resort rooms were spacious and clean. The restaurants were never overcrowded and the pools were super nice. The water slide was very enjoyable and run with expertise.

Treated Royally at Dreams Royal Beach
Another great vacation at Dreams Royal Beach Punta Cana. As usual, the best service in the Caribbean. Thanks Junior, our most excellent butler and thanks J.J. our most excellent bartender. Both of these guys and the entire staff work hard to make everything perfect. The food was excellent at all of the restaurants and even with ongoing construction, the entire resort was immaculate. Shuttle service made everything convenient and, best of all, the beach and pools are beautiful. Thanks Dreams. We’ll be back soon.

Oct 26, 2025Superman with a Smile
“Superman with a Smile” – Thank You, Roberto at Dreams Resort Dominican Republic! Our family of 22 recently stayed at Dreams Resort in the Dominican Republic, and our trip was absolutely unforgettable — all thanks to our amazing personal butler and concierge, Roberto. One of our family members requires regular dialysis, and none of us speak Spanish. Thankfully, Roberto speaks five languages and personally coordinated everything with the local clinic, including transportation for her treatments. Because of his help, what could have been stressful turned into a smooth, worry-free experience. Roberto didn’t stop there — he managed the needs of 22 “extremely needy” guests with patience, professionalism, and an ever-present smile. He checked on us day and night, always making sure we were comfortable and cared for. I even had an unexpected fall during our stay, but Roberto quickly arranged medical attention at the onsite clinic. Thanks to his attentiveness, I was able to recover and still enjoy my brother’s beautiful vow renewal. Roberto truly embodies what hospitality is all about. Dreams Resort is lucky to have him — a real Superman with a smile! 🦸♂️ Thank you, Roberto, for turning our vacation into an extraordinary experience. We are forever grateful! ❤️
