Overall the resort does a good job with everything. Check in will take a while as it does in all foreign countries. Don't ever try to be demanding with anyone, it gets you nowhere! Make sure to call early to get a dinner reservation as they will not let you just walk up.........even when there are empty tables all over... More

I would highly recommend this resort to anyone thinking of traveling to the Dominican Republic and staying at an all inclusive. The food is awesome, with many different types of restaurants. There are a few areas for improvement. It was tough to keep up with the maid service remembering to put beer in your mini-fridge. It was a bit obnoxious... More

I am a regular guest at this hotel having stayed here about 9 plus times in the last 18 months. Overall the hotel is a wonderful experience and the majority of the staff is friendly and eager to help you. The food fluctuates from awesome to "so so" trip to trip (one trip awesome, next trip "so so"). My most... More

First time going to D.R. The resort was huge! They had a couple of trains running every 5-10 minutes because if you walked it could take 20 minutes from our room to the main lobby. Everyone was extremely friendly. I picked this resort because it was geared toward kids. They had a nice size playground and offered babysitting. We never... More

We experienced a wedding in Paradise on May 5/2/12. We had 100 wedding guests and Melia Caribe Tropical was a perfect location. It was a large property but the trolleys and golf carts were great for transportation. From the moment we checked in to our departure on 5/9/12,the employees were polite, helpful, kind and generous with their time. There were... More

This was overall a good stay in DR all-inclusive resort. We stayed for 6 nights and went on 2 excursions. There were some bad experiences and good ones. The first night we got there, we were a little disappointed that no one gave us proper directions to our room and we got lost for 15 minutes in the dark on... More
