Top Dolphin Island Hotel Reviews

Serenade Punta Cana Beach & Spa Resort - All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"The check in was good - I ask if they can accommodate me to a room close to the pool & the lobby due to knee issues and I was upgraded to a first floor room with the swimming pool, which was nice. The room itself had some issues. There was a foul smell in the restroom. I could not get the hairdryer to work and the phone stopped working. I could not dial the reception area.. The buffet food was OK. I would suggest making reservations for the fine dining. Though I had an issue with the reservation’s the front desk book me for the wrong date, got to the restaurant and I was denied, even though a party of 7 had just cancel. The outdoor activities could have been more accessible in the second pool near the beach. I believe they lack that in the outdoor activities- which I also suggest they should have something going on every hour per the hour even for the older generation. The entertainment show at night was good. Drinks were excellent. Staff were very friendly. Overall, the stay was good."

Zel Punta Cana, All Suites - All inclusive

6/10 Okay

"I loved my room and the pool area. Outside of that, it was pretty disappointing: - There was no regular food place open, especially for breakfast and lunch, depsite being an all-inclusive. - Staff were slow to respond, didn't speak or understand English, were sometimes rude - It was not clear from the booking that the beach is a golf cart ride. Quick, but not a beach front property as advertised. - Staff gave preferential treatment to White guests. I am a Black, American women. - Drinks including wine were horrible. - I couldn't figure out the hotel vibe - sometimes soft rock playing during the day, sometimes no music."

Lopesan Costa Bávaro Resort Spa & Casino - All Inclusive

6/10 Okay

"★★☆☆☆ My husband and I stayed at Lopesan Costa Bávaro from April 27 to May 4 to celebrate my birthday and our anniversary. The resort itself is beautiful. The pools and beach were great, and the food exceeded our expectations. The steaks at the restaurants were fantastic, and the restaurant staff provided excellent service. Unfortunately, our stay was overshadowed by an issue at check-in. A front desk employee named Daniel told us multiple times that we needed to purchase the Adults Only upgrade to dine at El Asador restaurant. Based on that information, we paid for the upgrade. Later, we learned from other guests and front desk staff that El Asador is available to all adult guests without the upgrade. Had we been given accurate information, we would not have purchased it. Despite raising the issue at checkout and through multiple emails afterward, the resort refused any refund or compensation. Great resort, disappointing customer service when an issue arises."

8/10 Good

"We were a group of 13 people get reservations for restaurants was a little bit difficult but we made it to three different restaurants. Food was amazing every where. We were staying a Level and moving to the general lobby was slow because they don’t have enough carts to move people around. But the drivers were really nice and patient with the situation."
