Very good properties, stayed in 2 different rooms, very specious and we'll equipped. Minor issues like back door didn't close properly, but overall great stay. It is very quiet, if that is what you are after is perfect. Breakfast is good and staff are nice, it does take a while, you have to wait.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The property is beautiful, quiet, with a large room and a high ceiling. Gorgeous views. Maria, the front desk attendant was incredibly helpful. The drawback about this place is how far it is from the true center of Punta Cana. It's about 30 minutes away and a taxi to downtown will cost $40 one way. We decided to get a rental car for $70 instead since it has free parking. A few minor things that were bothersome included the fact that there's no phone in the room, the shower did not drain properly, the lock box did not work, the power outlets by the bed did not work.

Great Place to Stay

The rooms are very nice and comfortable. The pool area was very nice. The beach had a lot of seaweed, but it could have been this time of year. Breakfast was good. I stayed on two different occasions and was very pleased overall. The hospitality offered by Maria was awesome. Be sure and visit the API restaurant and beach area - this is included in your stay at Punta Palmera Cap Cana.

Look elsewhere

The property was out of the way and it felt like a ghost town. There was a lot of work going on at the property and one whole side of it was in complete disrepair and looked like the work had been abandoned long ago. The beach chairs were all broken. When I brought this to the attention of management they refused to acknowledge that more than the lobby was being repaired. When I walked outside I could look up to other balconies and see holes in them. The parking garage was leaking all over. With all of this being said, I found the resort to be safe and quiet. The kitchen sink was so tiny that it was totally inadequate for washing dishes. Paper towels or napkins were not provided. The tap water was not suitable for drinking which I didn’t know until we arrived. After the cleaning service our room smelled like a dead rat. Marisimo (?) was very kind and helped us with some excursions. He is a great person, which is the only reason for the 2 stars. I don’t believe the price was fair for the resort. I would hesitate to book here again without fully investigating the area and state of the property.
