Iberostar Dominicana Hotel: Marginal Stay    Check Rates
  • Satisfaction:
  • By Mulderl on April 2, 2008
    • This was our first time in Punta Cana and enjoyed our time tremendously. Its to bad we picked an extremely marginal hotel. We have traveled to many other places and have always had better facilities. My last tropical stay before this one was at the adventura palace in the Riviera Maya which was top rate. Lets start with the good. Beaches were beautiful, some of the best I've seen, always lots of people on the beach, most days we were able to walk out and find chairs and a palapa available, small kids were usually at the pools, Pools were ok, clean but not much going on. No fun pool bars. Went on an ocean party and snorkel event that was a blast. Staff was wonderful, easy to get along with, and worked hard. We enjoyed discussions with the staff and learning about there culture, most of them knew some english. The hotel is nicely situated, grounds are well kept. The negatives are that the buildings, rooms, furnishings, bathrooms are aging and dated. Rooms are kept clean, but not anywheres close to a 4 star. We walked up and down the beach most days and found other hotels much nicer for compairable pricing. The Riu Hotel just to the north looked plush, we walked the facilities and would stay there next time. I am not a food snob, but the food wasn't good, most days you have to eat the buffets which were a grazing zone of strange mixes. You are allowed 3 reservations at the alacarte restaurants, which weren't any better. I enjoy seafood which was some of the worst I've had. Breakfast buffet was a little better. Bars are well situated, next to the beach and also in the main areas, drinks were pretty good. The exercise facility had equipment that bairly worked. Would not recommend.

    Beautiful beaches.

    Iberostar Dominicana Hotel: Jersey's New Year    Check Rates
  • Satisfaction:
  • By puntatraveler on January 3, 2007
    • My family of 6 stayed this past New Years Eve 2006/07 (4days) at the Iberostar Dominicana. We love Punta Cana and have been there 8 various times over the past 10 years. It is our favorite family vacation spot. Everyone has raved about the Iberostar resorts, therefore, we were anxious to visit the Ibertostar Dominicana. However, we were very disappointed. It is looking run down. The rooms and hallways need updating. The lobby is not impressive at all compared to all other 7 resorts along the coast we have visited. The beach was the best thing! That section of beach in Punta Cana is beautiful. The entertainment was horrible. On New Years Eve they has rap ganster music being performed. Not a pretty site. We did enjoy the barbeque on the beach but all in all it was the Iberostar at it's minimum. We had to stand in a line for 15 minutes for dinner restervations and could only get a restaurant at 9:30 as everything else had been booked. On our first day, Friday, we found there wasn't much of a food selection and the preparation lines were long. They must be putting all there money into restoring their hotels in the Riviera Maya after last year's hurricane. We enjoyed last year's stay at the Bahia Principee on New Years Eve much better. They are used to accomodating large crowds and had fireworks to boot! We are looking to book our entire family (28 person's) this summer and will not consider Iberostar in Punta Cana as an option.

    Our stay at the Iberostar was brilliant. My only regret was that it was only for 7 days. We were put up in one of the Junior Suites in the bungalows. These were far more spacious than the guestrooms in the main buildings. The facilities were ideal. There are swimming pools for those who are keen on the sea, for the energetic there is a fitness center and all guests can book a catermaran for a bit of sailing. There is also a spa and whirl pool center and more than enough lounge chairs on the beach. There is a wide range of food available in the buffet restaurants. For the special evenings there are four speciality restaurants, including a steakhouse, a Caribbean restaurant, a Mexican one and a Gourmet Restaurant. The hotel was clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this hotel.
