We just got home from a six day trip at Excellence punta cana. First i need to say we went to Excellence riveria maya for our honeymoon last year, and it is a far better resort then Punta Cana. Thinking we would get similar quality vacation, we booked at Excellence again. I suggest if your looking for a warm- all-inlusive,... More

My husband and I went to the Excellence for our honeymoon in May 2012. We had such a fantasic stay! The staff was so kind and helpful and waited on us hand and foot. The locals were a little pushy with their sales of souveniers, but we didn't let that bother us. We were treated so well at the resort... More

Once again we returned to the Excellence Punta Cana and yet again they delivered. As we were returning guests they upgraded us to a master suite which was great. It overlooked the cascade pool and was just fine. We personally didnt find the bed hard at all and plenty of hot water during our stay at anytime. Food was good... More

Just returned from the Excellence on May 20, after arriving on May 13. The hotel was beautiful, but what makes the vacation is the staff and how they want to make sure you have an excellent vacation. We left on May 13 on Spirit Airlines. I will NEVER fly this airline again. Spirit mentions that they are a discount airline,... More

My husband and I took a 5-day trip to Punta Cana and stayed at the Excellence Resort. We had a wonderful time and the scenery was like paradise! We were celebrting our 10th Wedding Anniversary and my 50th birthday. The staff was very accommodating and the resort and grounds were amazing. We LOVED the swim-up and tiki bars, scenery, sparkling... More

We requested building SIX....we were put in building TWELVE.....we were told at check in that if... More

My husband and I just returned from a week long stay (April 21st-28th) which I planned as a 30th birthday surprise. We had an amazing time and would definitely return to the resort! We stayed in a garden view room in building one, second floor. We felt the room was spacious and didn't have any complaints about the bed, shower,... More

Overall we had a good time. Six of us do a girlfriends trip every year and perhaps we were a bit spoiled by our stay in Turks and Caicos, but here are a few things you should know when staying at the Excellence Punta Cana. 1) Book a Club room. The private beach is worth it. 2) The staff is... More
