According to reviews, this is one of the best resort hotels in the Dominican Republic, which also operates on an all-inclusive system. A luxurious territory with its own water park for children and adults, spacious and comfortable rooms, incredibly delicious food in the restaurants - all of this is perfect for a comfortable family vacation with children!

For children

There are plenty of entertainment options for young tourists at the hotel. For example, just a couple of years ago a cool water park was built here, featuring several types of slides, a lazy river, and a water playground for children. The slides are suitable for both adults and teenagers, as well as for very young guests of the hotel. Additionally, the hotel has a children's club where entertaining and educational activities are regularly held. The program in the club is truly packed! It is also worth mentioning that this is an all-inclusive hotel, meaning you can significantly save on meals. There are special dishes for children on the menu and at the buffet (for example, the familiar porridge for breakfast). The hotel offers special family rooms that are very spacious and comfortable for staying with children of any age.

Advantages

Beautiful and large hotel grounds, attentive and friendly staff, many different pools on the territory, as well as a water park, spa, and gym, very beautiful leisure areas on the beach and by the pool. I am pleased with the delicious food, the opportunity to purchase an all-inclusive package, many entertainment options for children and adults, cool and stylish rooms with all amenities, as well as spacious terraces and balconies with a wonderful view of the sea.

Disadvantages

Some tourists believe that the private beach is very small, and there are often not enough sun loungers. In addition, there is practically no opportunity for walks along the shore, as the beachfront area is limited by the cove. Also, there are sometimes issues when entering the hotel, as they take a long time to find the reservation.

Wow! A real paradise for my children! This hotel has a large water park, several playgrounds, a game room, a workshop area, bowling, stationary surfing, and much more. It seems that both children and adults will have fun here (there is a casino for adults!).

For children

The hotel offers an all-inclusive package, which is very convenient when vacationing with children. On the premises, there is a large water park with slides for both children and adults. For the youngest tourists, a children's water playground with small slides is installed in one of the pools. Inside the hotel, there is a children's room with a play area and bowling. In addition, children can participate in various workshops held here daily, such as a cooking class or a makeup class for girls over 15. If you enjoy joint entertainment, the hotel hosts themed quests for both children and adults; you just need to form a team and choose a game! Besides that, the hotel has laser tag, an entertainment center with children's arcade machines and rides, and stationary surfing, where you can learn to catch a wave! There is a kids' club at the hotel where you can leave your child and enjoy your vacation; professional educators will supervise them. Naturally, the hotel has spacious family suites where even a large family will feel comfortable.

Advantages

The perfect hotel for families - children will be thrilled with the water park and the children's room, which has many fun activities. Excellent service, a huge area, very stylish and spacious rooms, attentive and friendly staff, very good restaurants, and a diverse buffet. A very good gym, many pools of varying depths and temperatures, and a casino. An enormous amount of entertainment for adults and children: themed parties, quests, movie screenings. 

Disadvantages

The hotel is almost always full, loud music is playing everywhere, and the restaurants close very early (right after dinner). In addition, there are too few electric cars available to move around the hotel grounds; queues are forming.

As soon as my kids saw the photos of this hotel, I had almost no chance of choosing another one. Honestly, I really want to visit Nickelodeon Hotel myself, as we are all familiar with the characters from popular cartoons. Here, this incredible children's universe comes to life, and we have the opportunity to stay in SpongeBob's pineapple house, visit the luxurious water park, and participate in entertainment events with our favorite characters.

For children

I don't even know where to begin! This hotel features a cool themed water park Aqua Nick with various slides, a lazy river, and all kinds of children's playgrounds. Daily entertaining themed events take place with characters from beloved cartoons. There is also a kids' club with a playroom, a children's food court area, a souvenir shop; different master classes, parties, and shows are held every day. Additionally, vibrant family rooms are styled based on cartoons, and characters can be spotted at every turn. The biggest luxury is staying in a pineapple house (from the SpongeBob cartoon) and fully immersing yourself in the universe of this work. At your first request, the hotel staff will provide you with a high chair, a crib, baby food, and much more. The hotel operates on an all-inclusive basis, and all entertainment is included in the accommodation cost. Children are the main audience of this hotel, and the best conditions have been created for them!

Advantages

Despite the fact that the hotel is mainly for children, there is a spa complex, a luxurious spacious beach where parties and movie screenings take place daily, several pools, wonderful restaurants, and bars on the premises. Magnificent rooms decorated in bright colors feature spacious terraces, balconies, or direct access to the pool. Very good service, delicious food in the restaurants, excellent cocktails at the bar. 

Disadvantages

There are many children in the hotel, it's always very noisy here! I think it's better to view this hotel as an amusement park for your children and then head to another, quieter hotel for a full rest.

Majestic - a very popular hotel chain in Punta Cana. Of course, I couldn't pass by. Majestic Mirage is the first representative of the chain in my selection. I really like that the hotel is divided into two parts: buildings exclusively for adults and two buildings with family rooms. Additionally, there is a cool water park for kids, several entertainers, and a kids' club where you can always find entertainment for every taste.

For children

I'll start by mentioning that the hotel offers an all-inclusive vacation option; this is a huge bonus for a holiday with children. There is a great water park on the premises with slides, water guns, and children's pools. There is also a kids' club, a playroom, and several outdoor areas where entertainment activities for children of all ages are regularly held: quests, quizzes, and fun parties. There’s even a room where kids can watch cartoons or play video games, my children will definitely appreciate that! As for the rooms, the hotel has several categories of family suites; the most popular is the two-story suite with a jacuzzi on the roof. Upon request, you can get a baby crib, a microwave, or other necessary items for a comfortable stay with a child.

Advantages

Large territory with beautiful lounge areas and big swimming pools. Very good food in the restaurants - it's simply a gastronomic paradise! Friendly and unobtrusive staff, as well as a large number of entertainment options for children and adults. Each suite has a dedicated butler, which makes the stay much easier. The rooms and the hotel grounds are very clean!

Disadvantages

There are a lot of seaweeds on the beach, which are only cleaned up by 11 a.m. The sound insulation is not very good. Some tourists find the rooms a bit "tired" and in need of cosmetic repairs.

Another representative of the Majestic network is located next to the previous hotel and is even more suitable for family vacations. The hotels share a common area, which means a shared water park and pools. However, at Majestic Colonial, there are many more guests with children, as there are more family rooms and entertainment for young travelers.

For kids

The hotel features an unusual water park with slides and a lazy river, and there is also a children's water playground in one of the pools. Older children and teenagers can play pickleball, volleyball, tennis, or basketball on the sports courts. They also have special free classes available. The hotel has a kids' club and a game room where they can play video games, watch cartoons, or participate in exciting workshops. Animators regularly conduct interesting quests and outdoor games. I believe my children will be thrilled with such a variety of entertainment. Additionally, the hotel operates on an all-inclusive basis, which means there will be no issues with food. The family suites in this hotel are very comfortable; the staff can provide a baby cot upon request.

Advantages

A large number of events and entertainment at the hotel, a huge area with many children's and adult pools, comfortable rooms of various categories and sizes, friendly staff, very good restaurants and diverse buffets, a cool beach equipped with sun loungers and umbrellas, very tasty cocktails at the bar! 

Disadvantages

Sometimes there are queues in the restaurants, poor service at the pool bar (guests wait a long time for cocktails), high humidity in the rooms.

A great five-star hotel in Punta Cana caught my attention with its on-site water park for kids and excellent reviews. They say it's the perfect place for a family vacation!

For children

The main bonus of this hotel is the cool children's water park in one of the pools. It features the coolest slides and water attractions, there is a children's water playground and a special pool for the smallest ones. By the way, this hotel also has a pool exclusively for adults, which I think is very convenient! In addition, the hotel has a spacious children's room and even a small theater where performances for young travelers are regularly held. Older children will be interested in playing sports or bowling! The hotel offers family rooms, and the staff will provide you with everything you need for a comfortable stay with children. I must also mention that the hotel offers an all-inclusive option, which will significantly save our budget!

Advantages

I want to note that the hotel is quite new (by Dominican standards), so the rooms look very fresh. Each of them has a private balcony, patio, or access to the pool. A luxurious territory with many pools for children and adults, 10 restaurants and bars on site (French, Italian, Japanese, and local cuisine), friendly staff, a large number of entertainment options for children and adults (including a casino!). A very beautiful beach equipped with sun loungers.

Disadvantages

There are problems with registration, and some guests find the food in the restaurants not very tasty. The rooms are very humid!

A very decent five-star hotel is located in a quiet bay of the city of La Romana and is very popular among foreign tourists. I would say that it is a classic hotel without frills, but with a fabulous team of entertainers. There are activities for children of all ages here!

For children

I have never seen so many positive reviews about a kids' club! Apparently, it is really luxurious in this hotel. Based on the reviews, various themed activities for children are held daily here: foam parties, quests, quizzes, and much more. There is a children's pool, an outdoor playground, and a children's room inside the hotel. You can leave your child there for a while; they will participate in interesting workshops, educational activities, and entertainment games under the supervision of a professional educator. Moreover, the hotel operates on an all Inclusive system, which will undoubtedly keep our budget intact. Almost all rooms here are designed for staying with children; only their sizes and the number of sleeping places differ. At the buffet, you can always find children's options, such as porridge, yogurts, and a huge variety of fruits. 

Advantages

Large territory, there is a huge private beach and a pier that is very pleasant to walk on. Wonderful restaurants and a bar on the premises, bright rooms, very friendly staff, attentive to children. There is a small casino where you can have fun, and in the evenings, the hotel hosts lively parties.

Disadvantages

Somewhat outdated rooms, electricity in the room often goes off.
