As we were walking down the lobby we were greeted by a very nice, smiling gentleman who asked us where we were from, bla... More

We are a family of 4 that paid that spent 3 nights at this hotel paying roughly $420/night in Feb 2012. Overally I would say that at their rates you can get much more value at other resorts especially if you are interested in eating and drinking. We stayed in unit 11 which is on the beach side. Here are... More

We traveled to Punta Cana with two other couples and stayed at the Melia Caribe Tropical from January 21 through January 28, 2012. Our vacation was great! The resort is very large and very beautiful! The landscaping is breathtaking and very well maintained. The resort was extremely clean including the beaches and pools. There was seaweed on the beach but... More

We booked our trip in October so I had 3 months to read all the reviews and have anxiety about all the negative things that were said. The first day we got there I kept waiting for something to go wrong so I could make sense of all the bad reviews and all the "horrible" trips people were writing about.... More

So many people we met talked about how this is their favorite resort. We stayed on the Royal service side which was pretty nice... the room was large, clean and pretty high end. They offered custom pillows every... More

Just came back from a 7 night stay at the Melia Tropical. The food and service are average at best. Aso to me all inclusive means just that all inclusive. When eating at one of the restaurants the waiter tried to tell us that there was no house wine that came with the meal and that the wine had to... More
