Jan 25, 2026Wonderful family trip!
! It’s been five years since we’ve been here and it’s still just as fun as we remembered. We had a blast with all of the activities- we did a pool spin class, water aerobics, darts, pool volleyball, and some other games. I was happy to see that they even had a paint and sip on the beach, Spanish lessons, dance lessons, etc. There was something for everyone. Staff even managed to get my teenage kids to play pool volleyball, which my son later said was his favorite part of the trip. This resort really excels at two things- cleanliness and friendliness of staff. They exceed all other resorts with the hospitality and ability to keep everything clean. If you are from somewhere cold, do yourself a favor and book a trip here. Lay in the tropical sun while having drinks brought to you and forget about your worries.

10/10 experience and we loved Elias!
Went down with a big group of family (9people) and had the best time. Resort was clean, food was some of the best I’ve had on a resort in the Dominican and the service was amazing. Elias our butler was by far the best we’ve had. He was very attentive and made things happen. He went above and beyond to make sure we felt like we were home and definitely made the trip more memorable! Highly recommend this resort and that you request Elias for your stay!

Jan 24, 2026Awesome pools and slides
Overall experience was great at Dreams Onyx however my only complaint was that there wasn't much benefit to being a preferred member here. The pools here were great and the food was as expected. Top recommendation would be Blue Water for steak or Cin Cin for Mediterranean.

Great Resort
Loved our stay at Dreams Onyx resort. Everything was perfect from the accommodation to the food to all of the activities. We requested halal food and Santo took really good care of us! He made sure we always had halal lunch and dinner arrangements and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with everything! Definitely recommend this resort!

A beautiful resort with something for everyone and guaranteed to provide a great experience.
Second visit to this resort. This resort is a 5 for its price point, and a great value for the service, amenities, food, beach, cleanliness, and overall experience. Our second time within 3 years, and stayed 10 nights both times, with kids and other family. Getting preferred is definitely recommended. The Butler service is outstanding, we had Aris and he was always available, assisted with all our dinner reservations for our group of 8. He is very friendly, professional and just provided a wonderful experience. It was a pleasure to get to know him. We loved seeing the same people working there, Nellie at the preferred pool, the servers at the preferred breakfast and lunch restaurant. They make you feel at home and so welcome. The food is delicious, some items are a hit and miss but there is something for everyone. Portion size can vary and sometimes too big, we wish we could pick a portion size so we weren't wasteful and then would not be too full to try a variety of items. The beach is great, sargassum was never an issue, they clean it up well. The waves make it fun, not too big, we were able to sit in floats in the ocean past the wave break. The sand is beautiful and the entire coastline of the beach is walkable. We took walks down the beach everyday. With the main pool, preferred pool, water park pool, and the beach you can have a different experience and vibe anytime you want. The rooms are big, we loved having a first floor room in building 7, was a great location to get to the main lobby, and to the beach and restaurants. So many more positives to list, but overall this resort is guaranteed to be a great vacation, and almost anyone would not be disappointed. We plan to return again, mainly because of the staff and service, they feel like family and will be a pleasure to see them again.
