9.2/10 Wonderful! (1,009 reviews)
Positives: Food, pools, bars, room view, staff
The food at every restaurant was excellent. We have been to two resorts in Mexico, two in DR and this one. This is by far the all-around best food at an all-inclusive resort that we have ever had. You must have the French-toasted croissant at the Veranda for breakfast. Make your reservations for the a-la-cart restaurants when you arrive - they are all excellent. The pools are located near the ocean, so there is a constant breeze blowing. If you are under a shade, you will not get too hot. The bartenders will make you whatever drink you want, and it will be delicious. The view from the room balcony is awesome. The staff are always friendly and ready to help you with any need.
Opportunities: Beach, electrical power
There is a LOT of seaweed on the beach (not just at this particular resort). They do their best keep it clean, but it is a never-ending job as it reappears overnight. The Paradise Beach area has much less than the beach areas near the pools. There were several short power interruptions that were not even an inconvenience, but on our last morning there was no power to most of the resort for about two hours. There are a few 110V outlets in the room as well as a multi-port USB/USB-C charger. If you need to plug in several items at the same time, you will need to bring an adapter. There is no place in the bathroom to plug a hair iron of any voltage.
