Dreams Cap Cana Resort & Spa

Had an amazing meal at maravento and Felix was amazing. Food was great and his service was even better!

We travelled to Dreams Cap Can with another couple from April 8th to the 15th. We enjoyed our stay and the weather was perfect. We had preferred club with a swimout room. We had Carlina looking after us for the week and she provided excellent service by providing information as to what’s happening each day and was accessible for any questions via WhatsApp.

My job requires a lot of digging to get information which came in quite handy for this trip. We are city folk and take our food and entertainment seriously. We are so sad to be leaving… Definitely download the app in advance but don’t depend on the app for updated activity info. See below and I hope this is useful: 1. Fresh coconuts on Saturday! But ask the great entertainment team in case the date changes. 2. Bike ride: go see Harry and Dariz in the core zone (near the pickleball court) and schedule a bike trip. Please note that the bikes are for adults and not for kids. The trip goes to the marina which is like an hour-ish. Heard the marina is beautiful! We didn’t get to go since our daughter was too young for this bike trip. 3. Silent disco: so much fun and they had cotton candy one night at the outdoor silent disco. They also had a 360 camera for you to film yourself. 4. Kareoke: also recommend. But no one was there so we were able to dominate the Coral Keg. 5. Explorers Club: ask the kids camp when they have the junior masters chef class. They made crepes and it was super cute. They also had cookie decorating one day which was ok. My daughter only did the food related activities at kids camp. I had my older daughter join who is 13 and they were ok having an older child join. 6. Cooking class: Ask the entertainment team about signing up for the complimentary cooking classes. It’s like 30 mins but fun and gave us a break from the sun. We did guacamole class on Tuesday at 1pm and sushi class on Wednesday at 1pm. 7. The Bali beds. There are free Bali beds on the beach. It was a beautiful way to start the day. First come first serve. And like everyone says on this group. Just walk 10 minutes to your left of the hotel if you want to swim in the ocean. 8. Excursions. I wound up booking directly from the website and saved a lot of money vs going through the hotel. The Eco Park was a lot of fun if you want to feed animals and ride horses. 9. Coco Cafe: their frozen coffee we delish. Their ice cream and sandwiches were not. 10. Restaurants: we liked Oke the best (Japanese). And there is filet mignon on the menu at the streak house Toura. It’s labeled as steak. And don’t miss the squid appetizer. So good. 11. This Facebook group: And I reached out to this group while I was on this trip looking for aloe. Apparently I forgot how strong the sun is here. And within seconds I had 3 responses to share aloe with us. This group is amazing. 12. Floats: if you need extra floats (or even sunscreen) just ask the staff by the pool and they may have some extra that guests left behind. 13. The nightly shows: This ain’t Broadway. The best show was the fire and acrobatic show on the beach. 14. Buffet/Drinks: the food was fresher for breakfast if you go early. We liked the crepes and watermelon juices. And Micheladas and coco loco were our drink of choice at Sea Legs. And get the Gabi special at the bar Sea Legs. My daughter coined her own drink and they kindly kept making it for her. We love bartenders Keisy and Engel! 15. The staff. Can’t say enough great things about the staff. My daughter wasn’t able to go on the biking trip since they thought it would be too dangerous for her. And to make it up to her Dariz the bike instructor painted an incredible portrait of her and gave her Dreams swag (hat and fanny pack). And shout out to the lovely Hilari at VIP services who treated us as VIPs and was so kind to our family. And my favorite person on the entertainment team was spicy Elian who always kept us laughing. Above and beyond.

The resort is spectacular; its location, facilities, and staff make for a dream vacation.

We recently stayed at Dreams Punta Cana Resort & Spa and had a great experience overall. This was our first trip to the Dominican Republic, and going in, we had heard mixed reviews from friends—some of whom didn’t enjoy their time—but our experience couldn’t have been more different. From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly polite, welcoming, and attentive. Everyone we interacted with went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of, which really made the trip feel relaxing and enjoyable. The resort itself was beautiful, with well-maintained grounds and a laid-back atmosphere that made it easy to unwind. Whether we were by the pool, at the beach, or grabbing a meal, everything felt well organized and comfortable. Overall, we left very happy with our decision to visit Punta Cana and stay at Dreams. It exceeded our expectations, especially given some of the feedback we had heard beforehand. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to others looking for a relaxing getaway.
