TripAdvisor Traveler Rating

Ive stayed at several resorts in DR spanning back 16 years and none compare to this. The service was the best ive ever received anywhere. Our butler, Aris, was ON IT and gave us the most incredible anniversary surprise. We spent hours on our first day at the preferred lobby bar and came back every single day to see Angely. Shes a literal angel and made the absolute best drinks plus best convo. The main pool is honestly mid and the preferred family pool is a joke but the preferred adults pool is one of the most impressive pools Ive ever been in. The bartenders at the preferred pool bar, Alejandro and Peter were incredible and so entertaining. We almost booked next door at Breathless but I'm honestly so glad we didn't. Dreams has so much more and the food is better. We went over to breathless a few times and the pool was always packed but the bar at the breathless Lobby is insanely impressive and the shows are better. The burlesque and queen show were awesome. Now for the most important part the food. I am truly convinced that most people who rate the food negatively went over there looking for mac and cheese and chicken tenders all of which they do have but because this is not America they don't do it very well. What they do very well is all the other food. I was actually disappointed by the lack of Hispanic food options and it seems that the majority of the buffet is catered to Americans. That said there were some really great hits like the Spaniard paella and omelette. The Dominican pork was also really good. The breakfast was once again very American and most days we ended up at the Coco Cafe which has the best lattes ever. Preferred is only worth it if you dont have kids, the adults preferred pool was the highlight of our stay but if we came back with our kiddo we wouldn't get preferred. Oh and lastly this is NOT a no smoking property and there were always some inconsiderate guests smoking at the pool and wherever else. It would be 20x better if they had smoking areas and didn't allow smoking inside the pools. Overall though a 10/10 stay.

We went to Dreams Onyx resort for the first time in May of 2026. The weather was unbelievable all week, giving me and my family a really great experience to sit poolside and by the beach all week long. We were split into two rooms, one room in building 5 and one room in building 6 and it was not an inconvenience to be apart, just a pool in between. The rooms were very clean and quiet, housekeeping kept the fridge replenished every day and remade the beds twice a day. The beach was top tier, especially when notified that the sargassum levels could be high, the crews were out each morning raking it up with the tractor to provide the best beach experience possible! All of the staff members at Dreams Onyx are amazing, and make your experience a great memory for a lifetime! We stayed in preferred rooms and had Osvaldo as our concierge for the week. Osvaldo was amazing, he came and found us every day and night no matter where we were to check on us, make sure we were happy, if we had any concerns with the room, reservations, etc. and made our time there very stress free and enjoyable! Other staff we saw every day at the restaurants and bars included Carlos, Maby, Alejandro, Peter and Ismael who were all top tier servers and made our experience so much fun and excited to go back some day!

My stay at Dreams Onyx Resort & Spa was absolutely incredible from start to finish! The resort was beautiful, spotless, and full of amazing food, entertainment, and relaxing pools. It’s the perfect destination for both adults and kids because there’s truly something for everyone, whether you want a fun family vacation or a relaxing getaway. Every staff member was friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even more memorable. The rooms were great and housekeeping came multiple times a day to restock and clean. The waterpark and lazy river were so much fun for everyone. They were definitely one of the highlights of our trip and added even more excitement to the overall experience. We also loved staying in the Preferred Club section. Having access to the private adults-only pool was perfect for relaxing, and the additional food accommodations and exclusive perks made the experience feel even more luxurious and worthwhile. A huge thank you to concierge Osvaldo, who truly went above and beyond during my stay. He was professional, attentive, and always available to help with anything my family needed. His outstanding customer service made us feel valued and taken care of every single day. Osvaldo’s positive attitude and dedication made our vacation stress-free and unforgettable. I would highly recommend Dreams Onyx Resort & Spa to anyone looking for a fun, relaxing, and luxurious getaway. We can’t wait to come back!

This resort was amazing. The beach is absolutely stunning. Our room was great we had a swim up attached to the adults only pool. It was a great room for the price. The whole resort was clean and lush and tropical. The pools and bars were all top notch and I cannot say enough good about the restaurants. We had Osvaldo for our concierge and he was so extremely helpful and friendly! I would request him if you can. The Buffett staff, Johandry, Mariely & Dania were the best! So friendly and happy you could tell they loved their job! The entertainment at the resort was phenomenal and La Mamba was awesome. And last but not least at the pool bar, Juan took such good care of us! We loved it and would go back over and over!

Recently stayed at Dreams Onyx and loved every minute. The second we walked in the door everyone was so kind and welcoming. Rooms were very clean and resort was very well maintained. We booked the preferred experience and it was worth every penny, the preferred pool was amazing and had the best bar tending staff. Also as part of the preferred experience you get a personal concierge our group was lucky enough to have Osvaldo who ensured we had the best possible trip, and made sure all our needs were taken care of. The food was delicious and the restaurant staff were amazing and super friendly. The nightly shows were great the fire show and circus show were definitely my top picks, the entertainment team were all amazing and tried to get everyone involved in the activities. The atmosphere was great a good mix of calm and relaxing with a bit of party vibes. Overall had an excellent experience and will definitely be coming back, special shout outs to Osvaldo, Peter, Ismael, Alejandro, La Mamba, Carlos and Maibe for making our trip so memorable and treating our group like family!
