4 adults staying in a beachfront 3 bedroom on 2nd floor, rented through Airbnb for a week. Beautiful view, spacious balcony, private white sand beach with lounge chairs and shade. Beautiful property, security, bar on beach with food, great restaurants and grocery just outside property. Everything was clean and felt very safe. Had a wonderful relaxing time with friends. Pools and beach not busy at all. Much different vibe than crazy busy resorts where it's impossible to find an open chair by pool or beach in Mexican tourist areas. Best vacation ever!!

This is my 2nd time to stay at Playa Turquesa Ocean Club as the location and convivence to shops, restaurants and excursions pickups is wonderful. We stayed in G-201 which has a balcony facing the ocean. It was a 4 bedroom/3 baths and very spacy for anyone. The property is very well kept up and security is always present and very friendly. I had great interaction with Yuri, the site manager, and she made sure our accommodations and overall stay was enjoyable. They have two salt-water pools and the private ocean front with a full-bar (Closed on Mondays) is wonderful and very reasonable. We prefer the freedom of ‘non inclusive’ places and these apartments are just perfect for staying in or venturing out. I highly recommend this location and will be back again next year. For those that need a COVID test to return home, there is an ambulance right across the street from the main entrance that charges $10 for a test and results are back within 6 hours. I also want to give a shout out to ‘Kat’s Corner’ across the street as they have great breakfast, lunch and dinner and drinks. Prices are reasonable and don’t forget a 10% gratuity is included (but I always give more) -…

Traveled with a family of four (including two teenagers) and I found staying at an airbnb in Playa Turquesa to be a very pleasant experience. I was tired of staying at resorts with the trapped experience, plus during the pandemic wasn't looking forward to herd service. We picked a beautiful apartment managed by a solid group called Volalto that were extremely attentive. When selecting your location check your hosts' review to make sure you are picking a great apartment with excellent service as they have various hosts/management teams. We were charged separately for electric which was somewhat pricey with the use of the AC which averaged $15 a day. Punta Cana is having some tough summer seasons with the sargassum seaweed. Many resorts are experiencing the same issue, they have the trucks working day/night. This location had a truck but just seemed insurmountable. We could not swim in the water but I had family staying at another well named resort with the same issue. We took advantage of the 2 large pools and took an amazing excursion to Saona Island that definitely made up for the Punta Cana beach water tenfold. Check your sargassum reports for travel dates, I've heard it peaks in summer which is a shame as that's when most travel. You can't blame the locale for what is a regional issue that the should be addressed and see what's happening ecologically, just be aware and if you are a die-hard beach person either be willing to travel outside the area or adjust dates. This issue is also present in the Gulf. The apartment itself was beautifully decorated, had a cute loft for my teenager, our other teenager had his own room. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, full kitchen, two supermarkets for food shopping (one of which is located in the complex) . We made our own brunch daily and went out for dinners. Loved the space, the patio, flexibility of staying at more of a home than a hotel room. Nice touch with family boardgames in the apartment, played scrabble with the kids late night. The location has plenty of restaurants that rotate live entertainment daily (bands, karaoke, dj). The road is so small that you can safely walk. Sometimes you can feel insecure when taxis or motorcyclists approach you for rides right out front but the gated community has wristbands and is so central that you feel safe. Be conscious of surroundings as in any location you are unfamiliar with and it's fine. Maintenance of the property grounds is also very nice. I always saw crews out and about touching up paint, cleaning, mowing etc. I saw what seemed like a bar at one of the pools but never was open/functional. Otherwise pools were excellent with plenty of chairs and umbrellas. Overall a great stay for us. Kids loved it!…

We are stuck here because will lose so much money checking out early but just want to give some quick honest pictures so no one will be in our situation. We booked for 1 month and when we want to check out within 24 hrs after arrive they said they would charge us almost 400$. So many problem with the condo and we emailed management/front desk for 2 days with no response. More detailed reviews coming later.... But biggest issue is the ocean is unswimmable. It is full of seaweed and I already gave this place 3 days for the team to clean the seaweed. The ocean is still so dirty and very stinky. There is a big seaweed dumpster spot right to the left of the complex ocean site that smells horrendous every day. We walked 1 miles up north to other complex ocean side and there is much less seaweed and the smell is so much better now that its away from the dumpster. Please save your money for macao or la romana/bayahibe which are two beach sites we went to with beautiful, sea weed free ocean. Bavaro is just so bad now especially in this playa Turquesa complex. Please see my pictures below! This is already day 3 of cleaning which is not half as bad as when we first arrive.…

Dear 181giangn, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback online. I am surprised to read about your experience and would like to kindly suggest you contact your direct host via phone or even personally on-site if possible so that they can assist with the resolution of the issues you seem to be experiencing. Terms and conditions per rental may vary but property owners are striving to provide carefree stays to their guests and I believe they would be glad to assist. Front-desk has not received any emails containing the matters above and they cannot directly assist with the management of your apartment if you´ve booked through a private party. However, please, know they´d probably be able to provide you with the contact details of your host so that you can get in touch. Regarding seaweed, it is a natural occurrence in the Caribbean and our team is doing their best to clear it out every day for the comfort of our guests. I am sorry to read that so far we have not been able to meet your expectations and hope that this would change throughout your stay. As I have advised before, please, contact your host so that they get a better chance of helping and arranging for your relax. Thank you, Kind regards,

We stayed in January for the 3rd time and enjoyed every minute of it. The grounds are beautifully kept, the pools pristine and the condo (B302) was lovely with every amenity you could imagine. The property manager Liz Borges Cabrera looked after every detail and if we had needed anything, she was just a text or phone call away! Can't say enough about her. Toc, the restaurant on the beach is a perfect place to have drinks, listen to music and just relax while gazing at the beautiful ocean. Food is fabulous and the owner Jacobo and his staff make every visit memorable. They truly make each customer feel special. Within very short walking distance (2 to 10 min) are convenience stores, a pharmacy and several other great restaurants and bars. Among our favourites were Kats Corner, Don Pio, La Casa di Goss, and La Brujadora. Great food and super staff at all of them and all offered Happy Hour with half price drinks and/or 2 for one specials for lunch or dinner We can't wait to go back!…

My wife and I, along with her sister, booked 2 weeks in Turquesa A201, a very nice 2-bedroom 2-bathroom condo, right by one of the pools. A short walk to a very nice beach on the Atlantic. Parasailing on the beach. Several good restaurants in walking distance. Property manager (Volalto) was quick to make certain everything was good (for example brought wine glasses immediately after a call to say there was only one). As the title says, a good place to veg. Lots of tour companies close by if you want to venture away, but not cheap.

Comfortable and well designed condo. Kitchen missing sharp knives for lime cutting, steak eating or vegetable preparing. Happily I wasn't cooking on this trip but slicing a lime with a bread knife is just not doable. Bed was comfortable but heavy bedspread was a major turn off. No light comforters or blankets available so I had to use a beach towel and wrap up in very thin sheets to keep warm.

We stayed in I201 at Playa Turquesa for a week in mid-February. The unit is clean, roomy, and well equipped. The location is excellent with many shops and restaurants within easy walking distance. There were always chairs available on the beach and the location of TOC Beach Bar and Restaurant make this one of the prime beach locations in Punta Cana. The security personnel were polite and cheerful and security was outstanding. I would recommend Playa Turquesa to anyone.

Great place to stay and also a great area to stay in. Easy walking distance to everything you need and more. Great stretch of beach to walk on as well. It is a bonus that most restaurants take Peso, US dollars or Euros. Temperature is consistent day or night as well.
