I am really surprised to read the negative comments about this resort as i went there recently with my wife and 2 children and we had a wonderful time. Please be realistic, it is not the Ritz, but it represents extremely good value for money. It does offer a huge variety... more

Our stay at the Sunscape the Beach was amazing! We went along with a party of 20 to get married in the sunshine, and every element was perfect! The Hotel: Beautiful. At first a little problem with the room but we were moved instantly to a much better room, we had a... more

I thought this hotel was brilliant there was nothing I could really fault it on! Most of the staff were very friendly (just some entertainment staff were a bit ignorant but only a few!), 'Clemente' one of the bar staff was so funny and always so happy, singing and making... more

My husband and I, our two toddlers and our 9 month old baby have just returned from a fabulous 2 week holiday at Sunscape the Beach. Before going I had read some of the negative reviews with concern but, having done further research, decided to go ahead. I am so glad we... more

We stayed at Sunscape the beach from May 2-9, 2006. We decided on this hotel primarily because of the good reviews on some sites, but we probably should have given fair weight to the negative reviews. We just kind of thought that the people who wrote the bad reviews were... more

Feb 2006, Miss N M Rowlinson

After a 24 hour delay on Boxing Day we finally arrived at the hotel which we had booked since May 2005. Initially the first impression of this hotel was fantastic. We were greeted by waiters in the gorgeous foyer with cocktails, damp flannels and cookies which were much... more

At first the hotel itself seemed very nice and the staff appeared very friendly. After the first day the service declined, the mini-bar was not replenished with essentials such as drinking water that is needed when the temperature exceeds 90 degrees! After a tropical storm... more

Excellent Time @ Dreams Palm Beach
Stayed at Dreams from January 10th to the 17th. After reading many of the negative reviews posted on this site, we were prepared for a nightmare in hell. What a pleasant surprise. We booked with Sunwing Vacations and were greeted with the most friendly flight attendants, hot towel service, spacoius leather seats, a plastic cup of champange, hot edible meal, and complimentary cup of wine. The flight was 3 hours and 45 minutes and it seemed much less than that. Arriving in Punta Cana, we checked through immigration very quiclky after... more
Relaxing
I forgot some points in my previous review. Plus, I wanted to comment on some of the negative comments. Our bathroom was supplied with the usual shampoo and lotion, but we also got toothpaste, toothbrushes, 15SPF suntan lotion, and a razor. When was the last time you got all that on a daily basis. As for the comment about the orange juice, it was GREAT. Maybe the person who thought it was battery acid has never had true fresh squeezed orange juice. Steaks were not low grade. A couple of nights, they had true ribeye. You had to... more
Dreams- just what we wanted for a romantic getaway
Just what we were looking for- beautiful, romantic, easy going and wonderful service. I am employed by a luxury hotel in Boston- so is my boyfriend. I won't say which one, but it is a hotel recognized for luxury and service. He is a chef and I am a manager for Front of house. So needless to say I was worried that a resort at this price would be a disappointment. Not at all. We booked a Club Oceanfront room and we both feel this made all the difference. We had all the enjoyment of the resort as well as a private, BEAUTIFUL... more
Vacation at Dreams Palm Beach in Punta Cana
Not very happy. We went with a group of 27 and no one was very happy. Our room had a very nice king size bed. There was no drew space to put your clothes. A closet with just 6 hangers. My husband and I lived out of our suitcases. The bathroom was very old and dirty. The toilet seat did not fit right and it just slipped back and forth. When entering the hall way to our rooms there was the smell of raw sewerage and it lasted the whole 7 days. The sliding glass doors did not lock, and we were on the lower level. We faced the back of... more
Total Relaxation
My wife and I just returned (1/17-1/21) from Dreams Palm and had a truly wonderful time. We stayed in building 4 on the 1st floor and didn't have any problems. I was a bit concerned about staying there after reading some of the reviews, but now I believe people just use this sight to complain. We never had staff enter our room without notice and we did use the sign for privacy on the door handle. I thought all of the staff communicated very well in English or at least tried their best. I find it interesting to hear the complaints about... more
No Complaints
Just returned from Dreams Palm Beach. Stayed in Building 1 and had absolutely no problems. The resort is beautiful. Large pool, large beach area. The rooms had all new furniture in them. The bathroom was a little odd, with a shower door only covering 1/2 the shower but it seemed to work. The staff is excellent. We had four rooms and none of us had any problems whatsoever. If people used the "do not disturb" signs for the handles, the staff wouldn't enter. I liked the set up at the restaurants, instead of making a reservation at 9am,... more
Stay Away!
My wife and I stayed at Dreams Palm Beach Punta Cana From Jan. 4th to the 9th 2009. We just got home and I feel compelled to write a review of our stay. I’ll start first with what is good about DPB, but unfortunately it will be a short paragraph. The Beach is really nice. Clean soft white sand with the dried leaves that fall from the palm trees being the only thing littering it. We did not step on a single rock or piece of trash for the whole time we were there. There was a lot of seaweed that washed up each day, but the tides... more
Awesome Hotel
We've just returned from a trip to Dreams Palm Beach and had an amazing time! The staff is very helpful, friendly and lend a hand even when it's not their job. The food at the a la carte restaurants was very good and the presentation was top notch. As you've already read, there is a gorgeous white sand beach! Dreams has a trampoline in the water that everyone (even non guests) seemed to be having a great time on. There is a constant wind which is deceiving when tanning so watch out for burns! ....on the upside, we never had a... more
Nice place, horrible service
We went to this resort through an Apple Vacations 6 Apple Square Deal, but the resort did not meet those standards. When we went the facility had been open for 3 weeks after being retrofitted from when it was open as a Sunscape Resort (rated a 4 Apple location). The resort was nice, the service was brutal. I have viewed images of the rooms and property from when it was a Sunscape and Dreams did a nice job upgrading the rooms and most of the property. While there was nothing special about the property it was nice. That said, every well... more
Great vacation but ....
My wife and just stayed at the Palm Beach from 1/10 - 1/15. We met another couple there for part of their 10 day stay. There were many more positives than negatives! The positives: sunshine every day, friendly and hard working staff from maids to bar tenders to food service to entertainment staff, beautiful beach area and pool, good food and drink. The best part involved meeting other couples from all over the country and world. The bar in the lobby features a dynamic bartender that brings people to the bar to share drinks and... more
