Holiday Park Resorts in Dominican Republic

"Here’s a polished review you could post: ⸻ I had a really fun stay at Riu Republica. What I liked most is that the resort really lets you choose the kind of vacation you want. If you’re in the mood to party, there are lively pools, the main beach entrance area, and lots of theme nights that keep the energy going well into the evening. But if you’re looking for peace and quiet, you can absolutely find that too. The pools, bars, and beach entrance on the left side of the resort are much calmer, and the back of the property is also a great place to relax without the party atmosphere. For dinner, one place that I think is a bit underrated is the Olé restaurant. I really enjoyed it and thought it was a great option for a nice dinner during the stay. Outside the resort we had some great adventures as well. The excursion to Saona Island was a lot of fun, and we also rented a car and explored Playa Macao and Juanillo Beach. One of the best parts of the trip was honestly just driving around and purposely getting a little lost and discovering new places. Overall, it was a really fun experience and a great trip. The resort works well whether you want to socialize and party or just relax and enjoy the beach."

"We had a GREAT time at Riu Palace Bravao. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. It’s so much to explore on the property. Make such you at least have one day to fully explore it."

"The Barcelo is amazing & beautiful, well manicured on picturesque Bavaro beach! All the amenities you want. The staff are all very friendly; but I suggest you brush up on your Spanish, as most don’t speak english fluently. All the food we had in the multiple restaurants and buffets was very good. The drinks were great; not watered down. There’s room for improvement on cleanliness (sand in the pools, and empty cups laying around; but not terrible. Rooms were in good shape, bed was very comfortable."

"Loved everything about this hotel. Staff was great, pool was clean and rooms have just what you need. Excellent service!"

"Great food. Wonderful staff! Great room."

"Fantastic Stay! Great Staff. Good Food Fun Trip"

"Staff goes above and beyond to help guests. "

"Room was well appointed, clean, nice amenities. Grounds were clean and well kept. Beach was amazing; waves in mornings and calmer in afternoons. The food was superb. We really enjoyed the Main Buffet Restaurant for lunches and the specialty restaurants for Diner. We really enjoyed our stay of 4 days. "

"everything was absolutely perfect "
