Now Onyx Punta Cana won the 2019 Noble Beach Prize for The Pool That Rules and the 2018 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.

Disappointed
The resort was nice. My only complaint would be the quality of lunch and dinner foods. They get a 2/5 stars. As for the ultra all inclusive this is not true. You have to pay extra for a nice wine and seafood. The table wine was just palatable and the food however, was sub-par. Reading other people reviews about the great food options.... I’m guessing they have never been to a true 5 star resort.
It would be difficult to think of one bad thing about this resort. I read reviews for months before booking so it just feels right to leave one for the next. The hotel is only 2 years old so my first impression was how modern the architecture was. Rooms were super clean with maids and servants coming by 2-3 times a day to either tidy up (while your at the beach and dinner) or ask if your mini bar needs to be filled. Leave a do not disturb sign on the door and no one will bother. I loved having access to both Breathless and Now onyx. My boyfriend and I enjoyed staying by our pool or beach during the day where it seems to be quiet a lot of the time and around 3pm heading over to breathless for a DJ and pool party.As well as at night, after our theater show, breathless stays open longer considering its an 18+ resort and their club stays open till 3am. Getting around is a short walk although at both lobby's they have golf carts 24/7 to drive you wherever you need to go. Also need to give a huge shout out to Abrahan who was our server by the pool and who made our vacation! Never left us without a drink and always went above and beyond to make us happy. Was pretty upset when he had a couple days off. Candy love was also amazing and part of the ETEAM who all worked so hard to put on a great show and keep things fun. Did not find it necessary to upgrade to preferred access, there was so many places to do without that but if you want a little more luxury you might want to spend the money. No need for a reservation at any restaurant unless you want hibachi at the Japanese place which i definitely recommend. Did not wait longer then 15 min for a table on a busy night and even if we did, the wine bar outside had the best drinks! Food quality was higher then expected, even at the buffet. The lobby has some shops and a store front where you can walk in to an ice cream shop, hamburger place and a cafe to order anything on the menu which is all also included. Personally having a fresh latte every morning was great! Some seaweed on the beach but a machine goes up and down constantly to clean it. People work around the clock to clean and keep the gardens beautiful. I feel there is so much more to be said because it was a perfect vacation but I think you should definitely experience it for yourself. I plan to return sooner then later.
PROS: The resort property and rooms were amazing; room was super comfortable and views stunning. Did not take advantage of the adult-only pool (addt'l cost), but the beach was great and not crowded at all. Did take advantage of the spa - prices a little on the high-side - but still enjoyable.
CONS: Although the food and drink was plentiful, it was average - nothing really stood out. The worst part of the trip was the 'hard sell' by the concierge and AMStar resort staff to sign up for a vacation package. They were relentless and aggressive. This alone will probably stop me from booking with the company/Cheap Caribbean again.

What ocean is the resort located?5 answers
Is the beach private and how far can you walk on the beach?
2 years, 35 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,

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.

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!

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, 22 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.
