First time visit to the DR and first stay at Excellence El Carmen. Happy with everything and did not disappoint at all. Booked a Excellence Club Beachfront Honeymoon Swim up. I wanted a swim up with a great ocean view, and it was everything I wanted and then some. Service was great, food options were great, entertainment was great too. I highly recommend this as your next choice for your Carribean stay.

Loved our swim up suite. Staff were so friendly and accommodating! Housekeeping was also great, loved the evening turn down service and we enjoyed the ease of room service especially that they had a cubby where you could get room service dropped off rather than them coming in and also to clean up without having plates in the room! We also enjoyed the live music at night. The spa was wonderful! The only reason we’re not giving 5 stars was we were a bit underwhelmed with the food. Some places were great (Spice, Oregano, Chex Isabella, Revive smoothie/juice bar, Aroma cafe) but others were not (Las Olas, Flavor Market, food truck, some of the room service options, lobster house for breakfast/lunch - dinner was better, breakfast buffet hit or miss but lots of options).
