Punta Cana

For all the ladies who went or are going to Punta Cana for their honeymoon, where are you/did you stay? 
What made you pick that resort?

TIA, FI and I have about 8 different resorts and we are having a hard time choosing so any advice would be greatly appreciated

Re: Punta Cana

  • I have stayed at the Club Med in Punta Cana on a family vacation years ago.
    Pros: The food was great, lots of things to do (they have a trapeze!), and I'm pretty sure we got a great deal on it
    Cons: It's a family resort so lots of kids, I believe Club Med is based out of France because there were a TON of Europeans...not a bad thing but it means your will see a decent amount of topless women and speedo wearing men (read: old people) on the beach and by the pool

    We honeymooned at Iberostar Grand Bavaro in May.

    Pros:  Fabulously luxurious modern property, all-inclusive, adults-only, 5-star service and accommodations, beautiful beach with no annoying vendors, personal butler, good food, quiet, relaxing, romantic.

    Cons:  Low thread count linens and towels (surprising for a 5-star resort), upgraded oceanfront accommodations were a ways back from the beach and were more like oceanview through some trees (beautiful, but not "true" oceanfront).
     
    Overall rating: 4.95 of 5, highly recommend  Smile

  • We stayed at the Majestic Elegance.  We had a hard time picking a place, and I can't remember what made us go with this place.  I think it was a mix of what we could get for our money and the reviews.  We had a great time.  You can read my review of it here (Relaxing Honemoon is the title): http://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g147293-d1068246-r134008677-Majestic_Elegance_Punta_Cana-Punta_Cana_La_Altagracia_Province_Dominican_Republi.html

  • Thanks for the input! Majestic Elegance is in our top 2.

    BTW I loved your review! I cannot stand reading reviews on tripadvisor most of the time because I feel like people just like to complain about everything!
