This hotel was absolutely great, the entire trip was a dream! I went down for my friend's bachelorrette party and we had an amazing time! The hotel was clean, comfortable, and relaxing. The staff was extremely willing to help and was by your side for your every need. I will be honest, after reading the nasty reviews I was extremely nervous to go on this vacation. After arriving, however, I understood completely who was complaining. When going to the restaurants, AMERICANS were complaining about their reservations (there were no reservations allowed at the restaurants) and this one lady was SCREAMING at the hostesses demanding to know why there was not champagne on her table when she arrived. I was honestly embarrassed to be from the same country as her. There were multiple incidents with people complaining over the most ridiculous things!
My friends and I had a wonderful time. The beach and pools were beautiful and the nightly entertainment was great as well. The food was yummy too!
This is a great place to go on vacation if: you have children, are honeymooning, or are an older adult looking for a great time away. I wouldn't recommend this resort for some young kids looking to get wasted and not remember the vacation. My friends and I are 22-26 and we drink but not to get wasted. It was positively the best experience. If you book through apple vacations, seek out Santos- the hotel rep. We did the marinarium excursion which was amazing- we swam with sharks and stingrays and what I like to call "dori fish" (finding nemo the movie) Hope this helps anyone who was as nervous as me!!

I just returned from a two week vacation at the Edenh Real Area, and I couldn't be happier. I have been staying at resorts in the Dominican Republic every summer for 12 years, and I can truly say that this resort is first-rate.

I loved the room. Everything was clean and new, and housekeeping did a great job. The bed was very comfortable, the plasma tv was very nice and had almost all American cable channels. I also loved the open setup of the room - you can watch tv while taking a bath! Our room was on the 4th floor, so mosquitos were not a big problem. In the evenings, I always sprayed on repellent and did not get bitten much.

The beach was beautiful, as always in Punta Cana. There were plenty of beach umbrellas, the beach activities were not too loud, and there were guards at the borders of the resort preventing vendors from coming in and harassing the guests.

The food in the buffets was excellent, and there was always a large selection. I went to all four of the a la carte restaurants and was not impressed by any of them, but my husband liked the French restaurant, so it's a matter of taste.

The entire resort is very stylish and modern, especially the bars. Overall, I had a fantastic time, very relaxing, I hope to return to this resort and would definitely recommend it for anyone!

My husband and I stayed at the Edenh June 10-16. We booked our trip through Funjet vacations. It was our first time going to the D.R. but we have done all inclusive resorts before. I of course read every review about the resort. I really was not too concerned about the hotel. I have found that most people who say "I'm really not that picky" are really picky!

The airport:
This was the easiest experience we have ever had in an airport. Super fast! We were one of the first people to get out luggage and as soon as we walked out our driver was waiting for us. He led us to a nice air conditioned van. It took about 20 minutes to get to the resort.

The hotel:
Very nice. It is clean. I didn't care for the incense smell but I realize it is a spa type feel but could do without the smell. It was even in the elevators. We went right into the Paradise Club lounge, we were the only ones on the bus staying at the resort. We had welcome drinks and then we were taken on a tour of the hotel and then to our room.

The room:
We had a great room. I think it was room 2475. It had a huge balcony overlooking the ocean. We did have a view of the empty lot but since the balcony was L shaped you could look straight out at the water. The only bad thing is that our AC didn't work. It was 83 degrees. We called for someone to check it out. They came quickly, said it just needed freon and it would be cool in 5 minutes. So we left for dinner and returned to 83 degrees. We called and asked for a new room and we were moved that night to room 2465, right across the hall. The balcony and view were not as great but the AC was working and that was most important to me! We actually met the people who got our old room with the AC still broken but they loved the view so much they decided to suffer through it!!

The pools:
We spent most of our time at the VIP pool. Carlos and Ramon were tons of fun! They were always bringing us drinks and buckets of beers! The resort was not full so there we no problems with chairs or umbrellas.

The beach:
The beach was beautiful. The sand is so white and soft. The water was warm. We never had a problems finding a place at the beach.

The food:
We ate at the Italian the first night. It was pretty good. I had pasta and my husband had lamb chops, his was really good! We ate at the Asian twice, once doing the hibachi. It was good. We did the buffet twice, I was not impressed with the dinner buffet but there was always something to eat. I am a very picky eater and I didn't go hungry! The lunch buffet at the pool was really good especially the pizza and chicken. I'm not a big breakfast person but my husband said the omlets are great. Overall the food was pretty good, better than some of the all inclusives we have been to. The beach party was fun, lots of good food to try.

Now I usually get sick at some point on a vacation whether we are in the US or in another country. We had antibiotics on hand just in case but never needed them. I did make sure that I drank a lot of bottled water. We never brush our teeth with the tap water. So this was my first vacation in a long time without getting sick.

We didn't really have any issues with mosquitoes in our room. We packed 3 citronella candles for the balcony, I brought a fly swatter for the room, bug spray with 30% Deet, bite MD, and caladryl. I did get bites in the evening but the bite MD worked better than the caladryl. I think I had 5 bites and my husband had 1 on his ankle. Nothing that could ruin the trip. It seems like people on the first floor had more issues with mosquitoes. ?But we read reviews and new what to bring so we didn't spend a fortune in the gift shop on sprays and meds! We also took Malarone since the CDC recommends anti-malaria meds. We had no side effects from the meds.

We went parasailing. It was $70 for the two of us. We went way down the beach to almost where the ship wreck is ( I think nears Dreams??) to parasail. It was fun, we took our water camera and got some good pics. We didn't do any other excursions.

I would definitely recommend this resort to a friend. But you have to keep in mind it is more of a relaxing spa type resort. So if you are looking to stay up late and party this is not the place for you, there is nothing to do late night.

Check In - Arrived at Edenh Approx 2am and were quickly checked in and taken to our rooms. Staff at check in were very nice and informative.

Rooms - Rooms were beautiful...A Little different as we all know, but myself and Boyfriend really didn't care about the hole in the wall. We were in our rooms only to sleep and get ready for our evenings out. Travelled with 3 other couples to Edenh and they also had great rooms with great veiws.

Beach - ABSOLUTLEY AMAZING!!! So Clean and beautiful. The staff keeps the beach super super clean. There is always someone going around each and everyday collecting Garbage until the sun goes down...

Beach Chairs - Never really had a problem getting one. There were 8 of us in our group and we all managed to get 8 everyday for our 2 week stay. Some days we never got to the beach until around 11ish and had no problems at all. Loungers were always available by the pool as well.

Food - the Food was great...Especially liked the Shore Grill and Hibachi bar. Again, Never had any trouble getting in at the resturants...had to wait 5 mins one night but it was no big deal. Rafael at the breakfast buffett was Fantastic..He is the coffee guy and was an absolute delight in the mornings. At the end of our stay , he brought 8 of us a little ornament from his hometown of Huigey to remember him by. He was truly amazing!!

Entertainment - Never really saw alot of the entertainment in the Evenings as we usually sat on our Balcony until the wee hours of the morning having drinks and just having fun. What I did see of the entertainment, it was great. The costumes are just spectacular. The sports Bar was always fun as well with Karaoke night...The Best Night was the Beach Party. What a Great time we had. The only thing lacking in the Entertainment world at Edenh in not having a Disco.

Staff- Super super Nice....No problems with the language barrier at all. Most spoke very good english.

So my overall review of this resort is a huge thumbs up...our group enoyed every miniute of a our 2 week stay and would go back in a heartbeat. Hope you all have a great experience as we did. Go and have a good time and relax...Its the perfect place for it....CHEERS!!!!!
