Luis candelario is singularly why I recommend this hotel. But the everyone else is still 5 star

Exceptional Service that Saved Our Vacation — Beware of Beach Scams! Our stay at the Melia Punta Cana Wellness and Spa Resort was incredible, but it was the absolute world-class staff that truly made this an unforgettable experience. I cannot say enough good things about our Level host, Luis Candelario. During our stay, my wife required some specific support, and Luis stepped up in a way we will never forget. He personally saw to it that she was completely taken care of, and what truly blew us away was that his shift had actually already ended. He stayed late on his own time just to ensure she had exactly what she needed before he went home. That level of genuine care and dedication is incredibly rare. I also have to share a very important warning so others can learn from my painful mistake: DO NOT buy excursions from anyone on the beach by the hotel. I fell for a fake excursion scam out on the beach and lost my money to a bogus vendor. It was a massive headache and completely ruined the mood, but Eddy, Pablo, and Francisco from the hotel's excursion hut (located right by the pool) stepped up and literally fixed everything for us. They turned a stressful nightmare into a salvaged trip. If you are going to book any activities, save yourself the pain and only speak to Pablo and Francisco at the hotel. They offer the absolute perfect balance in customer service—they never give you a hard sell, there is zero pressure, and they are simply polite, happy, and genuinely eager to help you find the right trip for your vacation. The resort itself is beautiful, but Luis, Eddy, Pablo, and Francisco are the true heart of this hotel. Thank you for taking such amazing care of us!

Very warm place to stay, staff are cool and friendly. Drinks and food are also good! Stayed at the room near the beach and it was big enough. Good structure!

Amazing couples holiday

Donna D (Doncaster, United Kingdom) on Oct 10, 2026

Amazing trip to this beautiful hotel. Rooms are a little dated in places, but spotlessly clean with a mini bar which is stocked daily Food, the buffets were ok, but we did prefer the snack bar food. Fun republic which is open wed/thur offers more fast food type food and drink which is included in the all inclusive Staff, absolutely brilliant everyone was kind and welcoming and those who could speak English spoke it very well Entertainment, was ok, the white party was brilliant but everything else was just ok :) We went as a couple so can't comment on things for family's but from what we could see there was plenty for children to do and we saw groups of children at the kids club having loads of fun. Pool, the main pool is huge and quite deep in places for little children, but it was lovely and well kept, we saw cleaners all the time keeping all areas spotless Beach, absolutely stunning, and we highly recommend getting up for the sunrise , there were lucky lucky men on the beach but a polite no thank you and they went on there way with no badgering Cabana , we rented a cabana on the beach for 45 dollars, it came with our personal waiter, champagne , food and drinks delivered, felt very special for our romantic trip, our waiter Louis was such a lovely man and couldn't do enough for us Bar staff, all the bar staff were fun, and remembered your name and order from the first drink, they were happy to make anything you suggested aslong as they had the spirits to do so, a shout out to Juan who works at the pool bar, he was such good fun and chatty with a smile to great every morning Overall we had an amazing time and would definitely return The al a carte resturants were lovely and you could use them as many times as you wanted and could book a couple of days in advance

Extremely Disappointing Stay – Would Not Recommend

aarawil (Central Florida, Florida) on Oct 09, 2026

This was, without a doubt, the worst resort I have ever stayed at. My experience at Meliá Punta Cana Beach Resort fell far below expectations, especially considering the price and the promise of an upgraded stay. First impressions matter, and unfortunately, the experience started on the wrong foot. The check-in desk at The Level, the upgraded accommodation experience, was dirty, with flies all over the area. This immediately raised concerns about the overall cleanliness and standards of the resort. The rooms were equally disappointing. They felt rundown, with a strong sewage-like smell seemingly masked by an overwhelming bleach odor. The furniture had visible stains that made me uncomfortable even touching it, and the towels were some of the roughest I have ever encountered. Honestly, bring your own towels if you decide to stay here. The food was another major disappointment. During our short stay, we visited three different restaurants on the property, and unfortunately, none lived up to expectations. The best thing we found was the peanuts served at the bar. While I genuinely appreciate the effort of the staff who tried to make us feel welcome, their hospitality could not compensate for the poor quality of the food. The drinks were just as disappointing. Everything tasted artificial, as though it came from concentrated mixes rather than fresh ingredients. Even something as simple as lemonade did not taste natural. Overall, this resort was nowhere near the standard I expected, particularly for a property offering an upgraded experience. The cleanliness, room conditions, food quality, and drinks all left a great deal to be desired. I truly wanted to enjoy my stay, but this experience was incredibly disappointing. I would not recommend Meliá Punta Cana Beach Resort to anyone looking for a quality resort experience. Based on my stay, I would not return.
