Now Onyx Punta Cana won the 2018 Noble Beach Prize for The Most Bodacious Buffet!
Imagine this little vision: from your comfy lounger by the fab shimmering pool, aquamarine water that expands as far as you can see and the horizon just blends into this paradise. You're getting your tan on and your kids are being endlessly entertained in the Explorer's Club. Your massage is this afternoon, but until then, you'll just sip on your mojito and contemplate the endless blue sky. This is how we vacation in the Dominican Republic.

“Eh” at best
My boyfriend and I just got back from our 4 day wheel of fortune trip. This was not our first rodeo with this deal, in fact we decided to do it again since the first one went so well! So here we go! I typically do not write negative reviews but due to the fact so many things did not add up I feel it’s a must. To start off, when we arrived Amstar (the company I PAID EXTRA FOR) made us wait in the airport lot for 45 extra minutes because they were “waiting on more people” I knew I purchased the shared ride option but to wait that long and THEN NO ONE EVEN SHOWED UP was insane. We would have waited longer if my boyfriend didn’t get out of the car and go over to the gentlemen standing around outside. When we got to the resort we checked in. I purchased a romantic beach dinner for that evening online prior to arriving only to find out they lost my reservation along with the payment ($220 EXTRA) they told us we had to check in with the concierge to figure out what went wrong. When we spoke to them she disappeared for about 20 minutes to only come back and state “they chefs don’t want to but I got them to do it.” Okay? Moving forward. The food they served was actually wonderful at the dinner, but was not advertised as promised. No canopy and was not private as we sat on top of other couples. The rest of the trip was “eh”. There was not much to do during the day on resort grounds as advertised, in fact it was kinda dead. But the beach and pools are clean and beautiful. The drinks were strong. And the buffet was actually pretty good in comparison to other resorts we have stayed at in Punta Cana. What really bothered us was the fact the Breathless (the resort next door) that is advertised as we may use was closed. Because of this we were unable to attend the night club they have as well as the Mexican restaurant that Onyx claims to have. It’s really on the Breathless side. The service was great! The rooms were very clean and housekeeping even turns your bed down at night and leaves chocolates. However, if you don’t like sleeping on a rock, you may want to reconsider. My boyfriend and I left with horrid back pain. I most likely would not come back.
We spent our honeymoon here and had a great time. Even though it was a family resort we were happy to have full access to Breathless which was adults only. The food could have been better, not many food options for a Pescatarian. The rooms were really nice. The swim up room was a winner. The staff was very nice. Only one issue took two phone calls and 30 minutes before getting towels. Housekeeping cleaned the room and didn’t replace the towels. The only negative are the people bombarding you when you walk in the door to sell you a vacation timeshare, at least let people check in first and get settled. We thought the person was part of the checkin process only to find out he was signing us up for a 90 presentation. Overall, we had a great time.
Beautiful resort with well kept grounds. Beautiful beach and pools. Unfortunately food sucked. I travel to many many resorts in Jamaica, Mexico and even multiple resorts in DR the food at Now Onyx Punta Cana was the worst. This resorts need to improve on food.
My sisters and I made the best that we could at this hotel. We would NEVER return here. I’m not sure why it’s considered a luxury hotel. We upgraded to the “Preferred Services” and the only plus to that was our butler Felix. Other than that it wasn’t worth it at all. The food was horrible and the services in the restaurants was poor. We had to constantly as for a refill of water. Two huge roaches in our room. Don’t stay here!!

Just got back, was told it opened in December. It was amazing but not heavy on entertainment options. Everything was complete except maybe some of the landscaping and fountains. It was beautiful and we loved it. Quiet.

What ocean is the resort located?5 answers
Is the beach private and how far can you walk on the beach?
2 years, 27 months ago
Chrys
The resort is located on the Atlantic side, not far from where the Caribbean and Atlantic meet. The beach is not private and is pretty expansive, meaning you can walk back and forth pretty far.
CCGreg
This reort is on the Atlantic ocean, NOT the Caribbean, so the water is not as clear and is much rougher. The beach is private and you can walk quite a ways in either direction between sister resorts (Dreams & Breathless)
BeachLover59
Great beaches, private but you can use all 3 resorts, there are some vendors but they do not harass you,
Tilley
The beach is private and very nice. I would say you could walk a couple of miles

Some restaurants may be closed, this all depends on how much construction they are able to complete. They do try to have everything up and running by the opening date, but sometimes things can be thrown off schedule. So, unfortunately, some amenities may be unavailable.

We offer both Private and Shared round trip airport transportation options that are available for an additional fee. Please speak to one of our Beach Experts for pricing.
MikeCC
No shuttle provided. You have to pay for transportation and since this resort is about 45 minutes from the airport, be prepared to spend $$.
BeachLover59
Yup! I called Cheapcarribean the week before our trip and they booked us a shuttle service, you can pick combined shuttle (with other resorts, which we picked and you might have to be on a bit longer) or private options too. They were right there waiting for us! VERY easy!

You have to pay for it. We used Amstar.

Music at Pools3 answers
Can anyone comment on if there is music playing at the pools? We hate to sit in silence. PLEASE be frank, we have been to many adult only resorts and the only time you hear music while at the main pool is during water aerobics or when entertainment staff desires it. This is a very important element for us in determining a resort.
1 year, 14 months ago
Julie
Now onyx isn't an adult only resort breathless is and there's always a party and music there and it's just a walk away.... as far as Now Onyx we always went to the preferred pool and they usually had something playing and if not we asked them to put something on and they did!
Travler01
There was no DJ, but you do hear something in the background.
N2teeth
Yes there is constant music playing at the pools from 11:00 AM and on. Do not go to this resort if you are looking for entertainemnt it's very boring after 6:00 PM.
