I'm Dominican and we are descendants of Spaniards, Africans and Tainos (the island's indigenous people). The DR is a multiracial nation with a Hispanic culture. Similar to Puerto Rico and Cuba.

Worth mentioning is that the taxi drivers here in Punta Cana are extremely overpriced. Be careful when ordering a taxi from the hotel, negotiate the price before the ride. Would recommend to go with an Uber and you’ll save tons of money.

Hi, we were at the Impressive in 2021 and it was quite nice. When we booked we only booked the standard hotel but they offered us to upgrade to the Premium side for a price. The check in staff gave me a price ( I cant remember how much but when I didn't seem interested they said , well then you give me a price and I'll see if the manager will accept it. I think I only offered $100/pp for the entire week and they said OK so we upgraded to a room with a pool and beach view and a Butler who booked all of our a la carte restaurants for us for the entire week ( worth it right there). You also get a smaller quiet pool with a swim up bar. There is also a small breakfast and lunch area for Premium guests. We also got our Butler to book us lunch at the Beach Restaurant overlooking the ocean and the peer (so nice). I thought it might not be that much of a difference but it was well worth it. The Impressive Grounds and Beach (not much seaweed at all) are very lush and well kept and the a la Carte Restaurants were quite good but I did find the Buffet a bit lacking but overall we would go back to the Impressive Resort but definitely book the Premium if you can.

I'm going to go this year

Do not take the night flight in or out, if you take the last flight in? you'll be close mid night by the time you get to you room. and if you take the late flight out of Punta Cana? you might be hanging out on the lobby till late in the afternoon for your shuttle to the airport. Check out time is 11:00 and most late flight is 8:00pm. Also if you stay in big hotels, the beach gets too crowded. We stayed in Bhaia Princepe at one time, 3 diff. sections and could go as high as 12,000 guest between the 3 hotels. always hard to get a spot in the beach, but the hotels are really nice. This was before pandemic. Always have few $1 bills for tips, it can always go a long way for service. And by the way the night flight in and out I was talking about are cheaper than morning or afternoon flight. over all? great place to go.

Going tommorow , thnaks for the video

Acerca de la hora de check in en los hoteles... puedes pedir un early access con tu agencia turística, mas si tienes niños incluidos en la reserva (lo digo porque visito All incluisivr resorts todos los años, por lo menos 2 o 3 veces al año y asi es como me manejo) asi que no tengo que quedarme en el lobby esperando, aunque la habitación no este lista, puedo disfrutar del hotel hasta que entregan el room y dejo mis cosas y sigo con las actividades. About the check-in time at the hotels... you can request early access with your tourist agency, especially if you have children included in the reservation (I say this because I visit All Inclusive resorts every year, at least 2 or 3 times a year and that's how I use to do it). So I don't have to stay in the lobby waiting, even if the room isn't ready, I can enjoy the hotel until the room is ready and I leave my luggage and continue with the activities.

My only complaint here is how much the roads are full of litter near towns and cities. Lots of illegal dumping.

Hi

I just returned from Punta Cana. I had a good time, but I won't go back. I found the service, at least at Lopesan, to be very bad. 50% chance you don't even get your room service, 30% chance you get the wrong drink or meal and they make no attempt to clarify if they don't understand. No problem with people struggling with English, but at least let me know you don't understand. I assume this is because DR tourists are largely Russian, Ukrainian, and Spanish. The excursions were absolutely awful. Each was essentially a sales trip and half of the time was spent touring around to try and make you buy junk. The buggies were the worst. The hustle was always on while simultaneously providing the worst service. Oh, and the airport is one of the worst I've ever been to in my life. I've been to rural province Filipino airports with better service and structure. I get that island life is laid back, but the laziness is off the charts. That's my 2 cents as someone who spends lots of time in the ABC Islands and Mexico.
