"This was my first all inclusve experience. I loved every minute of it. As soon as you walk in the staff treat you like Kings and Queens. Smoothest and nicest check in ever. I stayed for seven days and there were plenty of activites you can do for free on the resort. We played in the poker tounrament, ping-pong tournament, horse race, karoke games, and so much more. There also is a live show they put on every night of the week at 10pm. My only reccommendation for those traveling here is for a even better experience know enough Spanish to communicate with the staff. Most of the staff have a very limited understanding of basic English. But still enough to get most of the message correct. I took about 3 years of Spainish in High School and it really came in handy. Overall experience was amazing. The staff was extermely welcoming and nice as long as you treated them with respect.. They seemed to go the extra mile to make you happy. We made about 10 new facebook friends with the staff. Pricing is well worth its value. I will go back."

"This was my second time at this resort. All was wonderful, as expected. There are so many resorts in Punta Cana to choose from, not all good! If you are planning to go, instead of taking a chance on whether or not you have a good one, choose this one and be safe! If you are an adult and don't want kids around, there is a side of this resort just for you. If you must bring your children on your vacation, there is a side for you as well with plenty of things for this kids. It is a win-win experience!"

"Best trip ever! We loved it here and would love to go back. We went on our honeymoon and did the Elegance Club, it was amazing. I wanted to cry the day we were leaving. We recommend lockingall of your stuff.. the batteries in our safe died the 2nd night we were there so we had to wait until the next morning to get someone to fix it. Watch the dealers in the casino very carefully, had 21 in black jack and they tried to take my cards (I guess assumming I was too drunk to realize) but when I said something she immediately put my cards back out and paid me. I would skip the steak house next time, food wasn't nearly as good as the other places and it didn't seem as clean. Defintely, go to the italian and french place. Beinvenido cuevas was awesome! We loved him. STEER CLEAR of the mama juana.. i dont care what other people say we didn't remember A THING after having it.."

"The hotel was great. As soon as they found out it was our honeymoon they upgraded us to an ocean view suite free of charge. We look forward to returning there soon. The entertainment team was awesome. Have the mamma juana! The only issue they seem to have is with the towels. Room towels and beach towels are limited. You should bring some spares from home."

"Thoughts it was a very good resort. Staff was friendly and helpful. Food was good (though not exceptional) and restaurant choices were good. The lounge areas in the club section were nice to be able to get out of the sun for a bit. Enteratinment options were good as well. Bars were plentiful and stocked with average liquor."

"Our trip to Punta Cana was great. The Majestic Elegance is a very nice resort. We stayed in Room 3110 in the Executive Club Suite (18 ) and it was well worth it. The food was great and so was the staff."

BookIt.com® Verified Traveler Brandt` from Swartz Creek, MI

"We were a bit disappointed with the check in process. Though we had requested rooms next to each other (my kids were in one and my husband and I in another), they were in the same building, but different floors. I was given some excuse about the facility being full and some group who had stayed there for 30 years had preference. Then, they didn't tell us how the bell service worked, so it was hours before we got our bags. The boys' room had a broken air conditioner, but I will say that they fixed it promptly. After all that settled down, we had a great stay. It is very clean, beautiful and a good size. The food is good, as is the service. The entertainment, both during the day, and in the evening is very good. The spa is ok--not the best I've been to, but I enjoyed the services I received. We would definitely go back. (I will agree with several comments on Trip Advisor...they need to improve the quality of the bed linens.)"

BookIt.com® Verified Traveler Tricia from Dracut, Ma

"We stayed for 7 nights at the end of April. We have been to many all inclusives. We usually stay in Mexico (it's cheaper) but had to try this hotel as my parents call it their second home. We stayed in the club section as we wanted adults only. We did not pay alot more for club so it was ok. I did like having the club section to use the computers to skype my kids and grab a sandwich or water when needed. However the elegance club beach section is very crowded and not to enjoyable. We actually used the regualr elegance beach which had alot more room. You did not have to worry about hitting the chair behind you if you wanted to lay down. There really wern't alot of kids so it didn't matter. The resort grounds are very clean. There are always people cleaning up after the guests. The majority of the staff are very warm & friendly. The rooms are beautiful and housekeeping does a wonderful job. The food was ok. We liked the food in Mexico better. The ala carte's were not to good. But we never went hungry. The shows are the same as everywhere else. It's something to do and they work hard to do a good job. One negative is there was never any soap in the elegance club bathrooms. I told them about 4x a day then gave up and used the regular bathrooms. They always seemed to have the proper supplies and were actually cleaner. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again if the price was right."

"Our stay was amazing!! The room, the view, the food, staff, beach, pool,, EVERYTHING was just perfect. It was great having the ability to book snorkeling, parasailing, and other activities right on the beach of the resort. I would recommend this place to couple who want a more quiet and relaxing vacation. It was worth it with more access to bars and services! Already planning a trip back and our wedding there."

BookIt.com® Verified Traveler Patricia Pitt from Charlotte, North Carolina

"The resort lived up to expectations in most ways. We had read that face cloths were hard to get and brought our own. It is a good thing we did! It took two days to get fresh face cloths. Also, the humidity in the room was very bad. It felt like we were in a water bed most nights and had to keep the air conditioning off. Besides that, it was a beautiful place with friendly staff, decent food and nice shows. We would recommend it to anyone coming to DR for the first time but would warn about the face cloths and the excursions. We thought they were too pricey and not up to expectations. We loved the drink 'majestic' and loved the fact that you could get a drink no matter where you were. It was a very nice vacation."

BookIt.com® Verified Traveler Wish It Was Better from RI

"Resort is nice but there are quirks that may grind you down. First. All power to the room goes out when you leave. Not just the AC, but the lights etc. If you spouse leaves the room while you are in the bathroom or the shower, you will have to make noise and clap your hands for the lights to come back on. Forget about trying to charge your phone or lap top while you are at dinner either, as the outlets will power down as you leave the room. The room had a constant dampness to it as the AC limit was hard coded in at 20.5C (69 F). But, each time you leave the room it will go off. So, your room only really gets cool at night,, but because you are not able to run dry air long enough during the day, your bed sheets feel damp, and like you are sleeping on wet sheets. It really has an effect on your ability to sleep. Beach Towels.... You will receive two beach cards that you exchange for towels each day. Each group of room buildings has a Concierge desk. They are there from around 7 to midnight,, but you can only get towels around 8:30AM and MUST return them by 5PM or you cannot get your key cards back the same day.. THis means you need to take these towels to your room and dry to dry them by hanging them on the porch.. But, due to the humidity, guess what? they don't dry very well. And if you accidentally forget and toss your towels in the laundry bin, you are charged $30 per towel to get new cards. Space at the pool is also at a premium and if you want to get a lounge chair at all you really need to have been out in the morning by 8:15AM, or your chances were slim. This is also about 15min earlier than you can get a towel. So, you become creative in how you try to 'save' or 'mark' your chair while you run to get a towel at the Concierge desk. If you wait too long, let's say by 11AM,the Concierge will have run out of towels and you will need to go try 'another' Concierge desk in the resort. All while hoping your chair is still there with your t-shirt and hat on the chair when you get back. Oh, and the pool closes at 6PM?? Disney has the pools open until 10PM. I really don't understand this. And don't forget, if you choose to stay at the pool until 6PM you will not be able to turn in your towels for key cards as that service stops at 5PM. (why?) Dining. The food was very good and service was okay. BUT, for the restaurants that require reservations you need to line up at the Concierge desk around 7:45 AM or you will not have a chance. You need to reserve the same day you want to eat at a restaurant that requires reservations. So, if you want to eat at the Japanese restaurant on tuesday.. Tuesday AM you need to get in line (and there will be a line) at the Concierge desk to book your reservation. Literally, if you wait until 9:30AM, all spots will have been taken. I also recommend you take 30-45min to walk around the resort when you first get there and ask a lot of questions about the restaurants, service times, and where everything is. Breakfast/lunch/dinner services are different at some locations as well as the menus. You don't want to miss out on the meals because they are great, and because if you fall in the gap between breakfast & lunch, or lunch & dinner you are out of luck. Drinks: The drinks were plentiful but service varied tremendously at each restaurant and each pool area. Some top shelf was available and seemed to vary at each bar. Not sure why. It would not come out either sometimes until you asked if they had a particular liquor. Overall, it seems incredulous that one could not enjoy themselves here, but the little quirks were enough to keep you from being carefree as there was an early morning ritual that if you ignored, you would have no pool chair or premium dining experience. I considered the pool/sun tanning time and dinner experience important, and between the towel rules and the limited seating at the reservation only restaurants.. it really had an impact on how much I could truly relax. If you slept late.. it was no pool, and buffet only for you. That is not the way I should have been made to feel on vacation."

"Food just edible. Staff steals from the rooms."

BookIt.com® Verified Traveler Rich F from Hartford, Wi

"the staff were very friendly the resort was very beautiful and clean there were people all aroung keeping it clean and nice looking every day . the pool was a bit cool but once you got in for a while it was ok but still cool . the only bad experience was the air line our luggage was completely soaked and some of the clothes were ruined and I would never book a flight that is not direct we wasted two days in the airport not to mention that the airline first had wanted to give us our money back for the flight going down cause they did not have a flight for us . once arriving at the resort the only problem was the wet clothing"

"DISPITE OUR FLIGHT EXPERIENCE...IMMIGRATION...AND SECURITY...



WE FINALLY WENT ON OUR HONEYMOON '25 YEARS' LATER THAN OUR WEDDING DAY WHICH WAS ...VALENTINES DAY 2-14-1987.



THIS RESORT WAS AMAZING...THE STAFF WAS FRIENDLY...THE SCENERY WAS BEAUTIFUL...THE WEATHER WAS PERFECT AND THERE WAS ALOT OF LOVE IN THE AIR.



IT WAS SO WORTH THE WAIT."

"I was great me and my Girlfriend had a blast and I do want to come back. I did activities and the staff was wonderful, Zip lining was the best can't wait to come back and do it again"

"My husband and I just got back from ME on a trip we took with two other couples. It was our very first all-inclusive trip and it is definitely the way to go. We had an excellent time at an great place and I would return tomorrow if I could. Like all resorts there are pros and cons but the pros definitely outweigh the cons but I'll list them for those interested.

Pros:
Value for money
Beach - beautiful sand and water
Staff - very friendly and fun. They are also efficient and helpful.
Beds - comfortable
Elegance Club - adult only section with awesome Bali Beds and lounges with free internet and snacks
Variety of food with 24 room service
Frozen Drinks - get a chocolate banana - very good!
Funtastic Team - entertaining and memorable
Mini-Bar stocked daily
Great maid daily maid service with fresh flowers and towel animals:)
All-inclusive - very nice not having to carry around money or worry aboout how much everything costs throughout your vacation.

Cons:
Rooms have a damp smell due to humidity and nothing dries which is just the weather and not the resorts fault.
Our A/C did not work great.
Only serves Presidente beer.
One lounge in the Elegance Club had a horrible smell but the other one was ok.
Snorkling area is very small.
Pools are not heated so we didn't use them much - They also do not have a hot tub which on our rainy days would have been wonderful.
Never heard from Butler but didn't seek him/her out either.

The food is not excellent but it isn't bad either. They do have a wide variety and we never went hungry. We tried every restaurant but the French one. Our favorite was Japenese. We would eat large buffet for breakfast and the one by the ocean for lunch. The bar staff at Sea by Sea was our favorite. I read other reviews of people getting sick and none of the 6 of us ever got sick from the food or water.

There is a nightly show which are pretty good - we attended 4 of them and my husband and I were actually part of the Couples Show. It was a riot. The Michael Jackson show is a must-see with awesome dancers.

We were there the last week of January 2012 and the weather was more rainy than we thought it would be. The first few days it rained all morning and was quite windy throughout the day. We talked to another a couple that had been to the DR 7 times and they said that particular week was the worst weather they have ever seen. Just our luck.

Overall, I enjoyed our trip and would do it all over again. It was a great value for the money we spent. The resort is very pretty and well maintained and the staff is great!

"My husband Kyle and I stayed at the Majestic Elegance in Punta Cana for our honeymoon. It was an absolutely amazing time. We couldn't say enough good things about the resort, the staff, and Punta Cana itself. The resort was beautiful and very well kept. The staff was extremely friendly and willing to make the guests as happy and comfortable as possible. I would absolutely recommend staying here. We also went Zip-Lining and we would recommend doing this if you like adventure. The bus ride into the mountains was amazing because you were able to have a guided trip through Punta Cana, which gives you the opportunity to see how people live. The whole trip was amazing."

"The Animation Team (entertainment) did their job!! The staff were courteous and friendly. I enjoyed the atmosphere and quick service. I would high recommend. Going back soon!"

"This property is a 3 year old all inclusive DELIGHT.--.6 different dining experiences with Argentina ( steaks ) the BEST followed by Lobster ( American) French, Japanese Steak house , Italian was just OK with buffet the last only went for breakfast and lunch.. Wine ( both white and red from France ) and champange flowed freely daily often but upon request all included and bottles in your room of Rum Vodka Baily's ( generic) and Scotch Johnnie red....I travel quite a bit Hawaii 90 days ago Barbados,St's Kitt Thomas etc.... and this equals or exceeds getting there....NOT much off campus and a bitch getting there ..BUT a very enjoyable stay...Do NOT go to Santo Domingo 13 hr trip 4 there and 8-9 hrs up and back.......No one on the bus thought well of it"

"This place is super fantastic. Great place, great service, great food, great surroundings, wonderful entertainment. I am returning and staying longer the next time! The best place to go, best value for your money, and you will not be disappointed!"

"There was a group of about 14 to start. We were all treated very nicely, service was good thu there is a language barrier. The flavors restarunt was not great service. The beach was very packed with people. I been on a couple of all inclusive trips and the beach was open more than this one. The drinks did flow, and the bartenders were awesome, good memoary of what you were dirnking. The itialian restarunt and the japaniese were awesome, the steak dont' go to. The place was very clean, well maintained. Pools clean and nice water temp. If your room was down by the beach you had a long walk to the lobby. The nite club was way way to loud and the base you could feel in your chest and stomach. The entertainment was good. Food over all was good. Staff always smiled, and frinedly. There were couple of little things but they didnt' detract from the trip. Deffenlty would go back. Great value over all."

"We had an excellent time at this hotel, but as always some kinks. First, it rained for us 2 full days. When it rained there was nothing at all to do. We had a 2 year old with us also and all they had in the lobby were board games. I thought that was just ridiculous. The restaurants were all good, but the buffets were just okay. My 2 year old was always looking for mac n cheese and they never had any. And they never had just plain pizza. There was always some crazy topping on them and my kid always wanted just cheese. The staff was very friendly and would go above and beyond for you which was a plus. They also have shows every night at 10pm which I thought was kind of late. A 9pm show would've been better. And in the rooms the bathrooms could be more a little more private. We visited the night club also and that was cheesy. It's hot and not big at all. They have great dancers though. They're a lot of fun."

"What a wonderful hotel and friendly and helpful staff. I would go back in a heartbeat if it weren't for the constant noise level. There is at all times music blaring at you from all kinds of sources so you cannot even perceive it as music, just as noise. Everything is way to loud and over the top when it comes to annimation. I am catching up with my sleep at home now."

"I was very unhappy with my choice in this resort. For a new 5 star resort I was very very disappointed. Customer service was terrible, the towels were about 10 years old and we were only able to get one towel per day and beach towels were even worse. Terrible service at the pool and beach - no one around to even ask if you needed a drink or anything. The staff was not friendly at all or helpful. Nothing like when I have been to Mexico where they can't do enough for you. I won't even mention the food or drinks because its useless.

"

"We just returned after a 8 day stay at Majestic Elegance.
First the place was beautiful and clean and the rooms where clean and spacious.
The Personnal was very good and pleasant and helpful.
The food was good not great. Not complaining but other places in Punta Cano were better.
Entertainment was good. Shows were good not great and had Live combo band for listening and dancing between dinner and shows.
I like the Elegance Club for the difference in money I thing it was worth it. You have acces to the club and also private pools which I like to get away from the activities, music and smoking to just relax. You also get the liquior in your fully stocked and room service and a butler to attend to you if you want.
I have used Book It for vacations and I like your service and making sure I have access to you if I need you. I will definitely book my next trip with Book It.com.
I would like to go back to Punta Cana next year. Is there a way that Book It can watch out for any exceptional deals in the course of the year and let me know?
Once again thank for your help.
Joe D'Eugenio"

"Just returned and had a great time. Personnal was great and personal and there for your entertainmet. Food was good also. Entertainment was good had live dance band for listening and dancing during dinner and before shows.
I like the Elegance Club with private pools, rooms fully stocked and butler at your assistance.
Would definetly go back.
Joe D"

"Just returned from a week of complete relaxation, fun, excellent food and the best staff and service ever. Oh, did I mention the facility and location are both beautiful? Well, they are! No matter what you are celebrating or even if you're not, the Majestic Elegance - all adult Club is without question, a very smart way to spend your hard earned money. If you have kids or want a more activity-related time, go for the Elegance (non Club) or the Colonial. Great for families, lots of children's activities and adult activities too. The Club is nearly all couples...honeymooners, anniversaries and birthdays. Go, go, go!"

"This was an AWESOME place to spend our honeymoon. We stayed in the Elegance club and couldn't imagine how it could have been any better. We got some special treatment for being honeymooners, including a romantic dinner on the beach which was fantastic...food was amazing and our waiter Nelson was extraordinary! This was both our first trips out of the country and to an all-inclusive resort. After talking with many of the other visitors there that have been to multiple countries and resorts, they said that it would be a challenge for us to ever top this resort...and I believe them! I really could go on and on about all the great things but I could write a novel so I will stop here! Overall, GREAT experience, AWESOME staff, and would love to return!"

"Majectic Elegance was great from the moment we were dropped off. We had an A/C issue but they were quick to get it resolved. The elegance club members only section is the way to go. Definitely worth the extra money. The food was good but different. 9 Doors (Hibatchi) was our favorite restaurant and Flavors (buffett) was our favorite for breakfast. Everyone was very friendly."

"This was our first trip to Punta Cana and we had an amazing time. We stayed on the 'Adult Only' side at Majestic Elegance and enjoyed all of our special amenities and treats. The resort was just as beautiful as the photo's displayed on the website. The food in the computer/lounge could have been fresher, but overall the snacks were pretty good. Room service takes at least 45 minutes, but it serves the purpose after a day of 'all inclusive drinking'. There were two restaurants, Japanese and French, that required reservations and we didn't have any trouble booking. The VIP travel agents were very friendly, helpful and accomodating. We definitely recommend the Bavaro Runners Safari Adventures which includes, horse back riding, cigar & sugar cane factories, beach, lunch and so much fun, ask for MiMi!! If you feel like dancing we suggest club Imagine, which is inside of a really cool cave or the Stingray Island Party Cruise! Be sure to bring your own wash cloths because the resort doesn't have any. It also pays to wake up early sometimes to indulge in the wonderful buffet breakfast at Flavors!"

"The resort is very nice and the grounds/beach/pools are well-maintained. There are many options for meals- the buffets/casual restaurants are OK, but the nice dinner restaurants are really great! Since it was our honeymoon, our concierge planned a free romantic dinner for us on the beach and it was fantastic as well.The staff are very attentive and friendly, even if there is a language barrier at times!

I highly suggest staying at the Majestic Elegance side vs. the Majestic Colonial if you are interested in relaxing. It is much more quiet, the facilities are more upscale, and you get more personalized attention. And the 24/7 room service comes in handy!
There were multiple activities throughout our stay if you're interested in being more interactive, including a Bikini contest, 'Iron Man' competition, beach BBQ, beach volleyball, White Beach Party one night, theater shows, etc. There is a Casino, nightclub, and sports bar open nightly.

If there was any downside, it was traveling to/from excursions. Most excursions are about a 30 minutes bus ride to another part of the island and you spend more time traveling/waiting for the activity than you do on the actual activity. I highly suggest saving your money for the Spa or purchasing activities on the beach at the resort! (parasailing, tubing, catamaran, snorkel equipment, etc.)"

"My wife and I just returned from a week stay at the Majestic Elegance in Punta Cana and have nothing but great things to say about it!

We also upgraded to the Elegance Club and stayed in building C. The difference between this and the standard package is that you have express check in (no biggie but if it is busy gets you to the pool quicker) a butler (once again no big deal but if you ever are in need of anything you get service much quicker and personalized) but the the nice thing is the seperate section on the beach with better loungers and the private pool with awesome chairs and day beds. Plus the lounge area where you can sit in A/C while booking excursions online with the free internet on 6 computers (never lines). Also there is a exclusive members only bar with awesome bartenders.

I hear people complain about the food and at end of the sentance it says the burgers and pizza were terrible. Hello people you are in DR not In and Out burger leave that at home and get a little culture. I admit food in Mexico seems a little better but I was never hungry and the surroundings more than made up for it!

The staff are all so friendly and willing to work with you to ensure a great experience. I would recommend Majestic Elegance to anyone considering going to Punta Cana. We had people on the bus during excursions and on the way home on shuttle complaining about how terrible the hotel they were at and I almost has to tone down our positive comments with Majestic so as not to make them feel bad.

Seriously it is that good!"

"I had a wonderful time with my wife Deanna. We stayed at both the majestic elegance and colonial for over 2 weeks. I must say all the workers were awesome and they made our time their memorable. The staff at both hotels were very inviting and the pools where very beautiful, but I will say the Elegance pool was way better than the colonial, but the food at the colonial was way better than the elegance side. Both Hotels are owned by the same owner, but all of the cafe's are separate on each side. If you stay at the colonial you can only eat on that side which isnt as good, because this place would be worth better in value if you can eat at both hotels during your visit. If you go here you will have so much fun. I recommend tiping a dollar or two a little here and there, we on the other hand tiped a lot. The people here were friendly and the surroundings where very safe. We will go back again. Thanks BOOK IT!!!!!"

"I doubt if there is a nicer place in Punta Cana. This is our second year in a row at the Majestic Elegance. Definitely get the Elegance Club package and request building C."

"Most wonderful vacation ever! Words can't explain. From the Time I arrived til the time I left it was nothing but amazing! Best all inclusive ever! I really enjoyed Team FunJestic! The entire group is amazing! Food was wonderful and the entire staff was awesome. Can't wait to go back!!! Thanks for making this a trip of a lifetime!!"

"This was my first visit to Punta Canta and it was beautiful! Overall, my experience was excellent. The staff was extremely friendly and treated us like royalty. However, the food was not that great, I suggest the steakhouse."

"Do not hesitate to book your trip at the Majestic Elegance. Spent 7 nights here. Met a ton of great people. Had the best time of my life. No complaints!"

"My fiance and I returned to Punta Cana for our second year and really enjoyed our stay at the Majestic Elegance. The butlers walk you around the resort when you arrive and take you to your room at the end. I encourage venturing around the resort it's huge and you can miss a lot. The extra money for the Ellegance Club package is worth it. You have your own bars and computer/lounge area that's always stocked with food. The restaurants are amazing and Flavors for breakfast has everything under the sun!! We both highly recommend it!"

"Great relaxing atmosphere. Good service. Sub-par food. Clean, friendly workers... But lots of 'lost in translation' from the workers."

"We've been to a number of all inclusives in the Caribbean, and this one is the best; hands down. It's much better than the big name properties in terms of value for the dollar.
We're planning to go back next year."

"We stayed at the Elegance Club in September and what an amazing experience that was!! The staff was very friendly, the resort was beautiful, the room awesome.. we couln't ask for anything better. "

"My wife and I visited for 3nights and 4 days at Majestic Elegance. It was nice place and we had junior room with king bed and jacuzzi. The staff was friendly, but at the time of our visit, there were many new training staffs who didn't know what they offer or name of their stores.
The service was good, we had fun, and food was nice."

"This was our first trip to the Dominican Republic and I have to say it was exceptional. The grounds and rooms at the Majestic Elegance were amazing along with the pools and beaches. The staff is incredibly attentive, with the exception of the butler whom we never saw after our initial tour. The drinks are good and the food is good for an all inclusive resort. The shows at night were fun to watch and the dance club was a blast as well. The only improvement is that there needs to be fans installed in the theater and the main lobby/bar area. It gets incredibly hot in these places because the breeze won't reach inside. Bring lots of one dollar bills, as a dollar tip will go a long way. Overall this was an incredible resort and trip and we would definitely come back again!"

"This was our fourth trip to Punta Cana. My wife and I love Punta Cana. First time we came in to Punta Cana was in 2007 with other couple, second time we brought our sons, third time we came in with two more couples and this time we were four couples. We only missed one year. We have stayed at different resorts every time we came in. We always looking for a better resort at an affordable price. I think we found this at Majestic Elegance Punta Cana. The food , the shows were great. The resort is beautiful, the rooms are very comfortable and clean. The people were very kind. We went to all restaurants except to the Italian restaurant. The buffet at Flavors restaurant has a theme every night,Oriental, Mexican, Seafood, etc. "

"Just returned from Punta Cana and my wife and I stayed at the Majestic Elegance. The resort was fantastic;great food, professional enetertainment and the staff was superb. Didn't spend anytime at the pool, but it looked clean and inviting and the resort beach was convienent and beautiful. Would most certainly recommend this resort to friends and family!"

"Make sure you take singles for tipping from airport to hotel and back. The transportation going to the hotel was informative and friendly. You are welcomed with a tropical drink. Our room had a great view to the pool and pool bar where music was heard. The entertainement was preety good and the workers who entertain did interact with the guest and made it fun. The beach was nice, lots of bungalow's,weather great and water was blue and sweet. The drinks was decent depending on what was wanted, I suggest try their signature drink through out of DR, its call mamajuana (there shots) and strong. There is a little mall (very small) outside and the side of the hotel (walking distance) where you can get gifts and a cheaper price when compared to the airport prices ( go to the first store that is next to the homemade food shack for cheap and ask for the guy we called 'CheapyCheapy, he'll give you a good price), the room was beautiful and housekeeping team was great...the coffee in the room is stronger and great, the food is ok I suggest the Japenses restaurant and the steak house.
The club on friday nite was great and music preety current and then sunday night was a lot of young adults. Its $5 for 30 minutes to use the internet and make sure the printer works ( Had difficulty printing boarding tickets). If need washcloths, ask once you get to the room and calling housekeeping at midnight was no luck. Its better to get food and bring to the room because if its called it may be cold, soggy and missing somethings. It was a great vacation with friends and I would suggest this to others. PS do not go after dark there is nothing but dirt roads and openness.
"

"My wife & I just returned from our honeymoon in Punta Cana. The Majestic Elegance is a very beautiful place & very clean. I was surprised by how nice & classy everything was. The staff was constantly cleaning & were extremely friendly. The beach & pools were amazing. They cleaned seaweed from the beach every morning & the pools were cleaned every day!

The upgrade to the adult only Elegance Club was definitely worth the money. They treated us like royalty. The Elegance Club lounges always had food & bottles of water for you. The adult only pools had bali beds, which my wife & I loved.

The room was better than we expected. We had a junior deluxe suite. It was so big & spacious. We had a jacuzzi in the room & a fridge that was constantly filled with water, soda, & beer.

The food could've been much better, but everything else was amazing! We would definitely go back to the Majestic Elegance & also recommend it to other people! "

"I went to Majestic Elegance in Punta Cana from August 28 to September 6th. I went there with my boyfriend and two other friends. I & my boyfriend stayed in Junior standard suit. I'd like to speak up about problems I experienced.

First of all, housekeeping was horrible. They did not stock shampoo,conditioner, etc. I'd like to use hotel products when staying. I&my bf actually had to go to housekeeprs to get shampoos at least 2-3 times. Shampoo jar is so small that it's only for one use. Also I had less and less towels. On the first day, we had 2 small towels next to sinks and three big towles in shower room. 3,4 days after, we had 1 small towel and two big ones. I usually use one towel for feet but there ain't any towel left for that. Speaking of cleaning. One day, until 6:00pm, NOBODY came to clean the room. We had to call concierge to get our room cleaned. They cleaned the bathroom floor ONCE while I was staying there. I still could see my hair in front of the toilet for a long time. (to see if anyone cleaned the floor.)

Mini-bar. My friends stayed in pool-view room.(I don't know what they call the room.)Their mini-bar was never stocked. Other guests who I've talked to and stayed in elegace club, also experienced the same issue. Moreover, there's no consistency of what they stock. Some guests had chocolates in a fridge some didn't.

Staff. I noticed that 40% of staffs actually smile and say 'Ola' to you. I did not feel welcome to be there. Most of them just passed by or busy talking to other staffs. Oh! And one night, there was a guy who knocked the door at 1:45AM. YES, at 0145. I & my bf though it was a housekeeping so we said 'it's occupied!' and 'ola!'. He knocked the door a few times and stood there for 30mins. Oh, my god. Honestly, I was scared. In a country I don't know well, someone knocking the door at 1:45AM. After my bf opened the door, the guy came in and said 'air conditioning' and didn't say anything else. He juse checked our AC and left within 10 mins. He didn't seem like he knew what he was doing though. I & my bf were upset and called concierge and they said our neighbor room had an issue with AC so the guy had to come and check if ours was fine. Why didn't they let us know beforehand?! They could've called us before so that we won't be freaked out!

Bugs-another issue. Yes, the place was gorgeous: lots of trees and plants. I guess it's hard to get rid of bugs... However, I and my bf were bit by so many mosquitos and other bugs. We caught 5 black mosquitos one night. I've been to other resort and I didn't have any bug issue. They usually put chemicals or anything on the wall so that bugs won't stay.

Food. It was okay. Asadito, a stake house, was the best among all the restaurants. Other restaurants..hmm.. I should say they are 3 out of 5 stars.

On the last tday, while waiting for the vehicle to airport, a guy from front desk came and asked how resorts were. We talked about housekeeping issues & the AC guy who came at 2:00am, but the guy did not seem like he was listening at all. He was responding only when we made a good comment.

I am disappointed so much that I do not want to go back to this place ever. I'll say overall experience is 3/5. "

"The trip was great. The staff was very nice and never did we feel obligated to give a tip. I have been multiple destinations and Punta Cana reminded me alot of Jamaica in terms of the friendliness of the staff. Everyone seemed very happy to help you and make your stay wonderful. Even off the resort everyone was very nice, just seemed always happy. In mexico it seemed like all they wanted was a tip and if you didnt give them one, they were rude.



The food was good. The dinners were very good considering you are not in the U.S. We tried all the restaurants and all were very good. The lunch was ok, it was a buffet style everywhere you went but you could always find something to hold you over till dinner. The breakfast was also good, plenty of fruit, eggs, bacon, sausage, etc. Room service was also good, not the best, but was still good. IT came everytime with in 45 minutes. I would recommend going to one of the restaurants for dinner rather than ordering room service. The dinner was the best part of the food on the trip.



The services the hotel provided was great. Free snorkeling, windsurfing, sailing, boogie board, and a couple others. Most resorts made you pay for this and Majestic it was free.



The alcohol was also good. It was not watered down like some have said on here. The bartenders would not hesitate to make your drink 'mucho' strong if you insisted or feed you with multiple shots of whatever you asked for. I recommend the Mamajuana also known as 'Dominican Power'. A local rum that the Dominican is known for. Have to try it and bring home!



The room was very clean and cleaning staff was great. We had no issues. They came every morning to restock the minibar, everything was free.



Everyday there was different activities on the beach like volleyball, bikini competition, fun activities, etc. The pool everyday, next to swim up bar had some sort of fun activitity. They were always playing music making the trip fun and relaxing.



Some people complained that there rooms were not cold or ac did not work. THis is not the case. The reason why that would happen is becuase everything in the room electric is on a sensor. If you are not in the room or if the door is open the ac is off. If you dont leave the doors open you will be fine.



Also the shows were awesome! My favorite was the Michael Jackson and Circus show. Everything was free and great. I recommend going to these shows.



I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking to stay in Punta Cana. Overall a great time. Everything we expected.



Feel free to email if you have any questions.

"A well esblishment beautiful Elgance place to visit! The Staff is so friendly, nice and helpful. My Family and I had a refreshing, outstanding, relaxing and fun vacation at Majestic Elegance Punta Cana."

"I went to Majestic Elegance for my honeymoon 9/4/11-9/10/11. My wedding was perfect and the honeymoon was something like out of a fairytale. First off the hotel itself is beautiful and very clean. The staff was very friendly and not in the 'I might get tipped if I'm nice way.' Me and hubby were a part of the Elegance Club which was worth the extra bucks a night. In this club we had access to 2 private pools and 2 premium bars and we also had the internet cafe which was so great because that allowed us to get in contact with our loved ones. Our suite was absolutely fabolous, it was spacious and beautiful. My favorite thing was the shower is was very nice and the water ran very hot for a long time which made me forget I was in a different country. We also had a jacuzzi which added to the relaxation. We never had any disturbances and our room was always cleaned promptly and stocked up with refreshments. The beach was absolutely gorgeous. The sand was like flour and the water was light blue. The food was delicious. I have been to many resorts and I have always felt that the different cuisines always fall short of my expectations, but not Majestic Elegance. The steaks were juicy and the japanese food was superb! This was also my first time trying room service which became our favorite thing because it didn't take too long and the food was sooo good!.

I have been to many resorts and I always say I can't wait to go to a different one. This time I felt so different. I am certain that I will return to Majestic Elegance. But I do recommend everyone to pay the extra couple of bucks for the elegance club, it was definitely worth it!"

"Upon arrival we were treat like royality. Every person in the staff was helpful and spoke eough english to understand. I enjoyed the fact that they didn't speak complete english. It added to the feel of the vacation and it never resulted in a lack of service. The food was great and service at the resteraunt and bar was exellent. The hotel is top grade as well as some of the best beaches and water I have ever seen. I will return one day."

"We just returned from our trip to Punta Cana and had a wonderful stay at the Majestic Elegance. From the time we arrived to the time we departed we were treated as royalty, nothing could have been better. The facilitiy, the staff, the rooms, the drinks, the entertainment, the grounds, the beach, the security was all 5 star in our opinion. Best place we have visited in our life including Vegas, New York, Marco Island, Palm Springs and many others. I will return as soon as possible to this paradise where we were graciously welcomed by the smiling faces of the entire staff! Thank you Bookit and Majestic Elegance and the entire staff of wonderful people who took care of us while we were there!"

"If you want to have a great vacation go to The Majestic Elegance. My husband and I had the most wonderful time, beautiful beach, white sand, enjoyed every night shows, excellent customer service the food couldn't be better and the whole resort is a five start. Thank you Bookit for providing quality videos to help us make the best choice."

"One of the best vacations I every took . They kept you entertained, they were very friendly they were always smiling. The beaches & pool was beauitful and clean. It was nice to have several places to eat and diffrent kinds of food to try. The bartenders was the best."

"The grounds and facilities are beutiful. The staff is excellent. Any and everything you could want or ask for while on vacation. We were treated like royalty"

"Many family members from several states met here for a family gathering in late August. We had a ball and the staff was quite accomedating. The resort was clean and well staffed. We will probably go again.
Side note, I would not suggest the Buggy Ride; the cars are dangerous and poorly maintained."

"When we arrived at the resort we were warmly welcomed by excellent customer service. The food is above average. The rooms were exceptional. I wish the overall staff spoke a little better English, they were all extremely happy and helpful though. I would recommend more options for non alcoholic drinks... This is by far the best vacation we have ever been on and would definitely come back... by the way, the beach and water are beautiful... There are many attractions to choose from, some you have to pay for and some are included in your stay.. I recommend the snorkeling trip to the coral reefs!! Golf was overrated, and the spa is a must do...lastly, the facilities are breathtaking! overall amazing experience!!! :)"

"If you want to pampered and treated like a queen, this is the place to go. Beautiful landscaping, impeccable service, blue skies, white powder sand, palm trees - total relaxation - elegance personified. Bookit did a wonderful job!! Thanks Norm for sending us here! Oh yes, the pool that meanders through the whole property!"

"our trip was the trip of a lifetime, and its because of the management of the majestic elegance! Prior to leaving, we email argenis guzman with certain room requests, and he more than exceeded our requests!! our room was amazing, we had a view from our bed of the lazy river pool, palm trees, and the ocean! it was wonderful. the amenities in room are truly 5-star from the beautiful marble floors, the double above counter sinks, the large closets, the big comfortalbe bed and luxurious bed linens and towels, to the refrigerator and double jacuzzi. Note: the rooms temp is set but there are 3 blower settings, put the setting on the high and the a/c will cool well. open the door of the cabinet that fridge is in, and it will ventilate causing your drinks to be cold. if you go on patio or balcony, be sure to slide the glass door closed so a/c will stay on. the food was good especially at steak house-be sure to ask for the beef filet tenderloin, you can cut it with your fork. the towels at the beach and pool are NOT threadbare, they are very new, so you won't need to bring your own. We did not get sick at all. we just brushed our teeth with the bottled water. water in restuarants is safe to drink. for late night snacks you have 2 choices, inclued room service or the little snack shack located near casiino on colonial side. we did not have any issues with resort and staff, everyone was very friendly and helpful. we have already recommended the majestic elegance to our friends, and we are planning our next visit for next year. "

"We just got back from this wonderful resort and can't say enough great things about it. The suite we stayed in was oversized for 2 adults and 2 children. The hotel staff were the friendliest and always tried to get people involved with the resort activities but knew enough to leave you alone if you weren't in the mood to participate. The variety of food was tremendous and very tasty. All of the restaurant staff (especially steak house) made us feel so welcome and I was amazed at how hard they worked. Staff at the front desk to pool bartenders and the animation team really made it a complete trip. We would definitely go back to this resort. Way to go Majestic Elegance Staff!!! "

"This hotel and trip was remarkable. I heard from other people on our return bus to the airport that they did not have the same wonderful experience. Some of the people had a lot of loud partying situations. This was never the case at the Majestic Elegance."

"My wife and I went back to the Majestic and stayed in the Elegance Club in one of the Oceanview Suites. It was absolutely spectacular. The food was great and we had a wonderful dinner on the beach. Everything about the room was perfect and the Elegance Club check in process was so nice. We were treated like a king and queen from the second we arrived. I would definately recommend this resort and we plan on coming back as soon as we can. It was a great getaway. The new spa on the Elegance side is spectacular. The entertainment was great and we truly felt like we were spirited away to special place. The little treats left in the room each night by the staff for us were so nice. Upon arrival, the jacuzzi was already full of warm water with bubbles and rose petals as well as a chilled bottle of champagne. A nice way to start the vacation and unwind after a plane ride. A special thank you to Ishmail, Henry, Felix, Dio at the Club and to Manuel and Nelson over at the Sea & See. They really made our stay forever memorable!"

"WE WENT TO THE MAJESTSIC ELEGANCE AT THE END OF JANUARY, HAD THE TIME OF OUR LIVES. WE STAYED IN THE ELEGANCE CLUB.

THEY BEND OVER BACKWARDS TO MAKE YOUR STAY UNBELIEVABLE. THE FOOD WAS GREAT, THE DRINKS WHERE EVEN BETTER. EVERYONE WAS SO WONDERFUL, ESPECIALLY ROBERTO THE BARTENDER AND EDUARD THE WAITER. OUR ONLY REGRET IS THAT WE DID NOT GO TO THE SWIMUP BAR SOONER!! WE DEFINATELY WILL GO BACK HOPEFULLY NEXT YEAR. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS RESORT TO ANYONE AND HAVE MANY TIMES TO WHOMEVER WILL LISTEN LOL!!!"

"THE MOST FUN I HAVE EVER HAD. HOTEL WAS EXCEPTIONAL, FROM BEGINNING TO END, FROM THE SMALLEST DETAIL TO THE ROOM SERVICE TO THE MEALS TO THE POOLSIDE ACTIVITIES, THE MAJESTIC ELEGANCE WAS AN UNREAL EXPERIENCE. ON A SCALE FROM 1-10, I GIVE THE MAJESTIC A CERTIFIED 20. THIS RESORT WAS BY FAR THE BEST, SECOND TO NONE, IF YOU WANT A GREAT, MEMORABLE AND LONG LASTING EXPERIENCE THEN I HIGHLY AND VERY HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS RESORT FOR YOU AND YOURS. THERE IS NO QUESTION I WILL SURELY REVISIT THIS PARADISE.>PS- ALL INCLUSIVE MEANS ALL INCLUSIVE AT THE MAJESTIC ELEGANCE. TRUST ME. I KNOW."

"I can't wait to go back. Probably one of the most wonderful vacation experiences of my life! The staff was so friendly and the service exceptional. The pools and the beach were wonderful. The bartenders and servers were so friendly and personable, we had a great time with them. The rooms were spotless, comfortable and very tastefully decorated. My only complaint about the room was the bathroom. Glass doors on the toilet and shower made it difficult to be modest when sharing a room with co-worker, but we managed somehow. Also very low water pressure in toilets. The food was not world class but it was always plentiful and satisfying. I LOVE THIS PLACE!"

"My son and I went to Punta Cana for the first time and it was better than we ever expected. The Majestic is great in every way, the rooms were clean, big,laidout well and the service was a 10. We did the dune buggy ride and we had the best time you have got to do this one.We will be back with the rest of the family next year and do it all again."

"We have been to Punta Cana twice... both great times... have been many places in the Carribean.... this was THE BESt trip so far!! The hotel was absolutely wonderful in every aspect! The food was 'pretty' good but not superior as compared to higher pric3ed hotels. This was just awesome. Clean, great staff, friendly people, wonderful rooms, bed very comfy (which isnt normally the case in the carribean), lots of fun activity or places to 'chill' iof not interested in that. AWESOME stretch of beach... loved walking north... so beautiful! Breathtaking! WILL COME BACK!!"

"This was our first wedding anniversary and our first trip to the Dominican Republic... This place was simply fabulous!!! The Majestic Elegance was extremely clean, room service was good and our room exceeded our expectations. The beach is beautiful, staff very warm and welcoming. The only issue we encountered was the language barrier, which we expected when we decided to visit a Spanish speaking country. We intend to return (but will brush up on the lingo first!)"

"Best resort I have ever been HANDS DOWN!!! Service is fantastic, beach is fantastic and most importantly the drinks are fantastic!!! (Try the Majestic!) Elegance Club is a must. In the Club you have the staffs utmost attention at all times including your personal butler who takes care of your check-in, quick tour, identification, and bags! Pretty much you do nothing and get everything in return!!! Don`t miss this place!! The Elegance Club Pool bar staff and the butler they took care of us and will definitely take care of you. Have a great trip!"

"my husband and i went to this resort in may 2010 with our 1 year old (turned 2 in july) and had the most amazing time. the food was good, our room was clean and the people was friendly. every time we walk by the workers, they would say hola. now every time my daughter see a spanish person with ruffle dress, she would say, 'mama, it's hola'. we plan to go back either next year or year after."

"My husband and I just returned from our honeymoon at this resort in Dominican Republic. It was absolutely amazing!!! If you are lucky enough to have Jesus as your butler, Maxima mix your drinks and Fransisco, Jose and Santa make you feel at home during meals, you are in for first class treatment!! The staff was super friendly and hardworking, food was amazing, drinks superb and the environment very romantic. The rooms are beautiful-staff give them a nice relaxing feel. There are shows and dancing just about every night..you won't be disappointed. Hiccups are going to happen for certain as nobody is perfect..but don't let them fool you...this is an amazing place to spend your time with the ones you love."

"There were three couples in our party that went to this resort. I thought it was great. The staff at breakfast, lunch and dinner was great. We had the best time with them and they were always right there to assist us, joke with us and just have a good time. The only thing is their day time activities, they just take too long to get anything organized and you get bored before they get started with the activities. As far as the food, beach, swimming pools, rooms, we all six of us loved the resort and I would definitely go back. "

"We travelled to the D.Rep for the first time in May 2010 and stayed at the all inclusive, Majestic Elegance Club in Punta Cana. We stayed for 2 weeks and wished it was 2 months!!! It was a WONDERFUL experience only made better by the FANTASTIC staff. We are now returning in September for 16 days and cannot wait to go enjoy this resort once again.

We will now make this a regular trip as we loved it and would like to take all our family to experience the resort and all it has to offer.

THANKING EVERYONE INVOLVED.

Rafael and Maria Canoa"

"A group of 24 of us (kids and adults) traveled from Pittsburgh to Punta Cana in 2010. We stayed at the 'Elegance'. The resort grounds are beautiful. The rooms were clean. The food was great. The staff was friendly. The drinks are strong and plentiful. We had a fantastic time. Only a couple things that I'd like to point out ... in the rooms with 2 double beds - the beds are crazy small. Not much bigger than a single. We had 3 people (my husband, myself and our 14 yr. old daughter) ... there isn't a changing area. A tiny room for the toilet (they are square). A good size shower. The jacuzzi is out in the middle of the room. Do not expect U.S. service. Remember you are on 'Domincan time'. Upon check in ... be sure to find out what show is that night. We checked in on Monday and missed the Cirque dul Soleil because no one told us about the 'shows'. The Michael Jackson show was awesome !!! The 70/80's show was really great too if you like disco music. A couple suggestions: 1) Bubba Kegs are a must !!! It is so hot there that the little drinks that they give you at the bars melt quickly and gets warm WAY too fast. 2) Rafts for in the pool and ocean. I bought cheap ones at Wal-Mart - inflated them once we got there and gave them to people that forgot them as we left. AND 3) but MOST important ... SUNSCREEN ... bring enough sunscreen - they charge $23 in the gift shop for less than 6 oz. We had a fabulous time and would suggest this property to anyone and everyone interested in the Domincan Republic. ENJOY !!!

"

"Majestic Elegance is a BEAUTIFUL hotel. Definitely worth the money.

You can visit with your family or reserve a romantic room in the VIP section. (I would recommend the VIP section). They have countless activities both in the day and evening; from water sports and fun competitions to concerts, shows and night parties.



The food was amazing. (Great Japanese restaurant) They have several different bars restaurants to choose from. The service was also really great. They employees were both friendly and very helpful.



My husband and I went there for our honeymoon and will be returning again for a second visit.

"Stayed here last year it was my first time at an all inclusive resort. This resort was amazing, the staff, food, beach and pool were all amazing. The rooms were very nice. I just got back from Mexico and stayed at a 5 star resort, I should have went back to Majestic instead had a much better time there."

"Over the last ten years, my wife and i have traveled to Dominican Republic a numerous amout of times. This time we really enjoy this hotel and the ambiance. The variety of food was excellent and the service was umpecable. Mr. Carlos Fresco, general manager, was very accommodating and always found a couple of minutes in his busy schedule to stop and chat with us. Our room was enourmous and clean. The ocean and the pool were very clean and we did enjoy both. We are planning on coming back to this hotel and will definately recommend it to everyone"

"Overall this was one of the best vacations I have ever taken!!! We had a girls trip from 5/27/10-6/2010 and it was perfect! The beach was great--the rumors of having to get down there early to get a cabana are true and not exaggerated so set your alarm clocks! We didn't have any issues with the food or water. Housekeeping was great and leaving a note to request your preference on what is stocked in the fridge with a couple bucks got you exactly what you asked for. Roberto in the lobby bar (upstairs) and Rosa in the lobby bar (downstairs) were very fun! "
