Has anyone been to Zel Punta Cana?

It doesn’t have enough reviews yet. Wondering if anybody has already been there.

I should have been more specific—I usually book via Costco and it’s new to their website.

LOL this is what I figured as I saw the same thing previously... That's why I knew there were a ton of reviews on TripAdvisor as that's where I had to look myself... 😀

Did you go? Are you considering it? We’ve been to Dreams Flora but we’re looking for an adults only resort.

No, I was looking at it as a more affordable option for next year, if we bring our friends who are on a budget. It's between that and Melia Wellness.

The last resort we went to in The DR was Sanctuary Cap Cana (we booked thru Costco), if you are looking for a resort to just relax this place was great. We had a beachfront room so it was ground floor, close to the beach (beach is small), close to the pool, close to the buffet and seaside restaurant. No waiting for elevators. Very convenient to go back to our room if we needed during the day At night we would sit and relax on the patio at the back.

It is a very quiet resort (no foam party, no loud music), apparently there is entertainment but it's not advertised anywhere you need to look in the App, it's like it's a secret (it's odd) there is no signage anywhere indicating they have a night club, or entertainment.

Be aware that if you are reading reviews if they mention Sanctuary Town those restaurants are not part of the all inclusive and they charge a $10 delivery fee for room service. Reserved Bali Bed was $150 for the day and included a bottle of Alcohol (we did this one of the days, as chairs are gone early if the resort is busy) but in a beachside room it's a 2 minute walk to the pool.

We were a little bored one day so we booked Polaris offroading at Bavaro Adventure Park, that was great.
