    I like this place a lot. 2nd trip. I'm a big guy and it's like a cruise only with a lot of space and few lines. That will make sense to many.

    HUGE property with a ton of pools, incredible Beach not to mention all the Pool Bars. (A few swim up as well. Pick from the active, pool scene to the chill and relax pool scene.

    Like the place, only draw back is that trolley you have to take everywhere because it’s a huge place. Loved that they have entertainment for all ages. Good customer service.

    I've never experienced service like this before. The Dominican people are nothing less than inspiring. Always happy, eager to help, ever attentive, very kind. Hotel awesome. Theatre blech. Food great.

    Ciao Restaurant - ask for Teofilo(Teo), Edgar & Alfredo- they are the "A" team! Fast, smart, entertaining, nice, and they speak pretty much every language known to man!

    Try the Churrasco at The Market for dinner, so delish! Luis and Ariel were our waiters there, they were great! Also try the Orange ice cream at the Ice Cone tastes like an Orange Julius!

    hotel was great, but watch out when you try to book tours at the website like I did. If you do, wait til you get to the hotel to book! I booked with Brahman Tours and they never got in touch with us!

    Beware the sand fleas on the beach at night and early morning, or right after rain. Your feet/legs will get all bitten up. Don't bring your towels back to your room!

    For breakfast go to the market restaurant. Lunch is great in El Toro. For dinner check out the Isla and don't miss the live cooking in the Zen

    The spa is simply amazing. The pre-treatment pool, shower, steamroom, etc. are off the charts! Do show up 1 hour before your appointment to enjoy everything.

    Head for the Eden pool a couple of times during your stay. It's like a boutique pool within a resort and a welcome rest-bite.

    If you play guitar, go to the main lobby and look for a fender booth, you can lend a guitar for 2 days free of charge to play in your room!

    This was the location of our Family Vacation in 2011. The entire show was broadcast from the resort. Being in Punta Cana makes waking up early a whole lot easier! Visit the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino!

    Hit the maid button each time you leave your room and they'll clean it every time, anytime during the day/night!

    If you wish to be on the beach and away from kids, go for building 1a , 2a, 2a or 4a. Building 5 B was the perfect medium between the main building and the pool/beach.

    If you do not tip your mini-bar person big the first day, don't expect to see him back....ever. Right Javier? BTW housekeeping is awesome.

    Hotel rooms are nice. Food is average. And I wish ppl will stop saying things about the beach like hard rock created it smh. It's great and the palapas are free! Most places you pay for that.

    Stay at the Iberostar Grand, same price, much more luxury, and much friendlier front desk staff.

    Definitely try to book your excursions and spa appointments ASAP after check in. The wait is long and you might miss out in prime departure times.

    The resort credits are a love hate. Take singles to tip the pool bar staff.

    The food is horrendous here. Also, you can't make a reservation anywhere which is just annoying because you have to wait for bad food. Other than that pools and beach are nice and staff is friendly.

    This place is really nice but overall, the amenities are better at the other palace resorts in Mexico. Food at this resort is far superior to the food at the Palace resorts in mexico though.

    Eden pool: excellent electro jazz music, lounge atmosphere, more of an adult and layed back scene.

    Gamble early and you have little chance of winning. Gamble late at naught and you could likely lose your wife like I did!
