There were some bumps along the way, but overall we enjoyed our stay 5/21-5/25. We are in our mid 30’s and went for our anniversary. We opted for Royal Service which I think was well worth it and made the difference in our experience. The place is exceptionally large and beautiful. I can't say enough about the grounds and first... more

My wife and I just returned from our stay at the Melia from June 20-27, 2008. We were located in Royal Service bldg #51. Overall, we found this property to be very well maintained and as many have said before .... very large. Understanding English is sometimes a problem but you can easily get by and everyone is very friendly... more

My husband and I just returned from a fantastic stay at Melia. We exchanged a timeshare for a week in June and had a beautiful one-bedroom unit, full kitchen, jacuzzi and washer in the Royal Service area. We chose the all-inclusive package and so glad we did. EVERYONE is friendly, helpful, can't do enough for you. They made us feel... more

Stayed from June 16th - 24th with my wife at the Royal Service section, villa 52, one bedroom suite with jacuzzi. First and foremost, most of my review will be regarding the RS portion of the resort. We did go to each other pool (Tropical and Caribe) but our service was mostly performed by the RS staff. CHECK -IN At... more

We traveled with another couple to celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary and upgraded to Junior Service, which we never received! Upon arrival we were dropped at the main entrance and never told to go the the proper check-in area, our suite door did not lock and someone walk into our room, we had daily problems with our bathroom that required... more

My wife and I stayed at the Melia Caribe Tropical with our teenage daughter from June 13, 2008 until June 20th. Our room was located on the pool which is a highly recommended location. The pools (2) are large and very nice, with a swim up bars. An easy walk to the beautiful beach and steps from the buffet that... more

We went to the DR May 31-June 7th. It was a party of 12; 3 families of four. We got the Royal Service deal and we loved it. The private checkin..they gave us Presidentes while we waited...the rooms were centrally located with the restaurants, ect. The property was only at 50% when we arrived so that was nice. The Royal... more
