Just returning from a fantastic stay here with my family 16th June – 1st July.

After reading a number of very negative reviews i was somewhat apprehensive about the stay at Dreams Punta Cana but had a wonderful stay.

The front desk staff on arrival were very friendly and helpful.

The lower lobby was under repairs as there had been a bad storm a week or so before we arrived and the ceiling had been damaged but did not look untidy and was completely rectified by our 2nd week.

The rooms were very nice and comfortable and very well kept by the maids who were also very friendly.

I found the staff as a whole to be very helpful and pleasant and always greet you when you pass them around the complex, the bar and world café staff were always polite even though some guests were very rude to them.

The food in the world café was plentiful and was constantly being replenished, as they were catering to so many people I thought the quality of the food was very high.

The Chinese and Japanese was very nice and the service on the restaurants was great.

The French was by far the best, the décor and service was great and the food was as nice as in any restaurant I have visited.

The entertainment team were extremely hardworking and do there best to get everyone involved in there activities.

The pool was lovely with lots of beds, weather was also fantastic.

We did get slightly irritated stomachs but nothing serious and nothing some Imodium didn’t cure.

In all we had a wonderful stay and would not hesitate in returning to Dreams.

I just returned home yesterday from a 7 night stay at the Dreams Resort Punta Cana. Im going to start off by saying that this is my second time to Punta Cana. In 2005 my girlfriend and I stayed at the Melia Caribe Tropical and we had a blast there. After staying at Dreams we both felt that Dreams far surpassed the Melia in all aspects. We could not understand all the negative reviews that we read in our days prior to leaving for Dreams. At one point we contimplated the idea of switching resorts but we decided not to. My girlfriend and I are in our early 30's and we had an excellent time.

Ride from the Airport , Yes it is a long and bumpy ride, but hello people you are in a 3rd world country that is that is no where near developed. What do you expect?

Check in was a breeze, no problems no hassles. Building 9 Room 9314 Junior Suite Room was nice, spacious and clean. Only complaint is that the A/C could be colder. Fridge stocked with Beer, water, soda, and juice daily, Fresh towels 2xs a day Turn down service at night. Jacuzzi on balcony was perfect.

Food overall was very good compared to the food we had experinced at the Melia in 2005. And better that the Food at the Riu in Cancun, MX in 2007.
Buffet great for breakfast, dinner was good as well, nice feature was that the food was covered in the slide top sterno tray.
El Patio-Mexican, Excellent we ate there twice, Mariachi Band great atmosphere.
Italian Restaraunt was in the same room as the Buffet but in a separate area, was ok n ot great.
Himitsu, you have the option for Japanese style Hibachi or Chinese. We had the Chinese, also very good.
Sea Side Grille & Oceana alternate closings we ate in the Oceana everyday for lunch it also was very good but the menu is repeated every day so you wind up ordering the same food. We did not eat in Sea Side Grille as the wait was too long.
Bordeaux the french restaraunt was by far the best. A nice romantic atmosphere.

Pool & Beach We spent everyday all day here right next to the Sugar Reef pool bar. Drinks of the Day are weak but just ask for a little extra booze and they will give you it with aout question. Wilson and Juan are excellent here a few dollars in the morning to them and they will treat you like royalty all day. Pool is fun very large, lots of chairs, shade and plenty of activities. There are also some quiet spots if you prefer. The Beach is not that long but it was claean and had plenty of chairs and shade. Beach BBQ also was a nice feature that we had never seen anywhere else. Oh by the way, we where at the pool by 10:30 everyday and we had no problems getting the same chairs.

Entertainment stafff was great. They all go out of their way day and night to make sure everyone is having fun. The shows could be a little corny, but they all were entertaining and we watched them every night. Casino was fun but dont plan on walking away a big winner. Desires Night Club was a blast fun music, dancing and drinks.

Overall I have to say that Dreams is a very nice Resort. ALL of the workers are extremely freindly, some more than others and you will have your favorites. It is very well mantained and very clean. The staff goes out of there way to help you to have the best experience possible. I would definetly recomend Dreams to anyone and would stay again without a doubt.

Just returned from a week at Dreams Punta Cana. My oldest son had his wedding there on Tuesday. Everything went off without a hitch! The rooms were clean and large, the pool was fantastic, the food was excellent for an all inclusive. The staff was very helpful with anything we needed. Julianna, the wedding co-ordinator did a fantastic job, from the rehearsal down to the wedding and dinner afterwards. Specialty restaraunts were wonderful especially the Japanese Hibachi style. Make sure you get Carlos (from Japan!) as your waiter. Loads of fun. Don't quite know what the people that give this place bad reviews were expecting, maybe the Waldorf??? I would go back anytime.

Every worker there went out of their way to help. If you had a problem with something in your room, they were there in minutes. The rooms were very clean. The food was exellent. There were so many restaurants on sight to choose from. If all else fails there's the buffet, which was always great. The pool is awesome.
The excursions we did through the hotel were wonderful. We did the outback safari. What a learning experience!
