Let me start with the good, since there won't be much, the resort was beautiful. It was huge, clean, and well maintained. It was almost too huge, but I enjoyed the large spacious feel (my wife didn't though). If you don’t want to ready the entire thing to get the idea, avoid this resort like the plague. Well, that's all... more

We just returned from 5 nights at the Melia Caribe Tropical. While the property is beautiful and well maintained, it is very spacious and the activities (pools, beach, restaurants, casino) are not within walking distance. We were told there was a "train" that could take us around the property; I envisioned the train in Disney World. It was more like... more

My wife and I, and our 5 children just returned form a wonderful week at the Melia Caribe. We did the "royal service" and definitely feel it was well worth the small price increase. Overall the resort was fantastic. The service was top notch. The pool for the royal service was one of the nicest I've ever seen (the other... more

There were 2 people working at the front desk... more
