The most amazing honeymoon destination, especially if you're looking to just relax and not worry about a thing. Pedro, the Royal Service bartender, was great and knew just what we wanted and had it waiting for us when we got down to the pool/beach. Many restaurants onsite to choose from, lots of variety. The rooms are luxurious and clean. Pillow service was a plus. In room breakfast was my favorite meal.

My girlfriend getaway just ended and I miss the Dominican Republic already!

I highly, highly, highly recommend the Royal Service option when staying at this resort. You definitely feel pampered the entire time. The resort is breathtaking! The white sand beaches, aqua waters and palm cabanas are a perfect retreat. The service was wonderful. The Dominicans realize that they need to keep you happy!!

This is a perfect girlfriend getaway if you are looking to relax and have fun at the same time. It is definitely an adult resort ,although many people traveled with children. I will definitely consider this place for a honeymoon spot because the royal service gives you access to so much, including a private beach. There are many, many honeymoon oriented events as well.

The only disappointing aspect was the food. The restaurants hardly served authentic Latino food! The food was average at best. But, then again, if food is #1 on your 'things to do list', you will miss the point of traveling to such a wonderful and exotic place.

I'm planning my next trip already. It gets a 10 overall in my book.

We've been here several times since it opened so we have a certain affinity with the hotel. We have however tried other hotels in between, and have always come back to the Palma Real as it is perfect for us. Why? well read on. It is the newest hotel on the Punta Cana strip (although I'm sure not for long) so the place is reasonably fresh and clean.
It is close to the airport - 20 mins taxi. Many of the hotels are an hour away - too far if you've had a long flight (and we're from the UK). Check in staff vary. Sometime perfect and sometimes less so. The issue is often one of imperfect English and my Spanish is terrible....Rooms are large and generally well equipped. Beds are sooooo comfortable. An ocean view is worth the extra pennies, but I don't rate the Royal Service at all. Food is ok but that's all. I'd say that is the possible weak point of the hotel - but having said that, all the other smart hotels in this area are just the same. Pools are great and there are always plenty of loungers and bali-beds. Drinks are premium and the staff are generally all great. Good little casino, empty nightclub. Super lobby bar. Perfect beach. This is a place for unwinding, relaxing and not doing much at all. It is relatively reserved, calm and upmarket for Punta Cana. We're going back in November as we like DR and this is the best hotel for our kind of relaxing holiday.

After being a Travel Manager for 25 years I have been all over, I have to say this was one of the best hotels I have seen in a very long time. The service was amazing the food and restaurants were some of the finest in Punta Cana. I have been to Punta Cana many times and this would be the only hotel I will ever stay at again. Most hotels in Punta Cana are very large and some you actually have to take a shuttle bus to the beach. But this resort had everything and walking distance to everything. This is the perfect choice and when you step of the transfer from the airport you will understand why I rate this resort so high. The lobby is amazing as you look down the stairway to the beautiful fountains then off to the ocean. The lobby has new wave music playing in the lobby and immediately feels like a retreat. Rooms were perfect and very clean. If anyone would like to ask questions please feel free at mitchg@wingsgt.com
