We had a great time at the Melia Caribe Tropical! What made it most enjoyable were some of the staff that made our trip memorable. We first met Gregorio Tejeda....this guy was awesome. He was the bartender at Square Lounge Bar and also at Fun Pub. You can tell he really loves his job and making new drinks, by far... More

We visited Melia Caribe last week and I can't complain too much regarding hotel and its grounds. The most negative things I have to say regarding our flight and their on site rep. It was signature vacation and we flew with Thomas Cook and they were terrible. I travel twice a year to Caribbean and usually staying at 4-5 star... More

I wouldn't hesitate to return to the Melia Caribe Tropical resort and have no major complaints about our stay. I traveled with my husband and 2 year old daughter. I'll start with the complaints. Neither complaint ended up being too big a deal. Complaint 1--The Kids' Club kept the cartoons on all day long and they may have given my... More

My wife and I just returned from our fourth trip to this fantastic resort. After meeting and speaking to several other guests, we've all came to the same conclusion; why go anywhere else? This place has it all. But what really makes the Melia Caribe special are the people who work there. When my wife and I arrived, we were... More

We were in Punta Cana at the Melia Caribe Tropical for a week at the end of January, 2012. It was one of our best beach vacations ever, and we've been to a lot of places! The service is wonderful at the Resort; the waiters and maids and hotel workers in general are so friendly! We were in the Royal... More

We travelled Feb 4th through Feb 11th. We spent our honeymoon there and did not upgrade for the royal service. We just wanted a room to sleep and shower in and still was blown away. When we checked in they had us on a separate side from all the families, which was nice since we left 2 kids at home... More

Having come off a terrible 4.5 star all-inclusive experience in Huatulco several years ago we decided to give it another try at the Melia Caribe - it more than exceeded our expectations and we spent a wonderful week there. We upgraded to Royal Service and would caution everyone that this is the only way to go - truly worth the... More

This was our 5th visit to the melia caribe and our brother in law's second visit. We all agreed that the Melia Caribe just keeps getting better. Our rooms were upgraded upon arrival. We had no problems getting reservations to the restaurants. All our meals were good to excellent and the service was great. Our only complaints were that the... More
