Travelers loved:

• Most guests thought the hotel was very good value for how much they paid. 

• The pool, beach, landscaping and scenery all won super notices from the majority of the Punta Cana reviews as did the sunny Domincan Republic weather.

• Another big draw was Mike’s Coffee, which one reviewer said had the best coffee they’d ever tried.

• The entertainment offered was lively, but some reviewers found it rather the same if viewed night after night.

• Another bright spot was the staff: most visitors reported them as friendly, helpful, and eager to please.

• Many Punta Cana reviews commented that this Dominican Republic beach was one of the best beaches in the Caribbean and maybe even the world!

• Rooms large enough for a family of 4 or 5.

• Most guests thought the food was good and loved the Italian restaurant. 

• Mini-bar in the room was restocked daily.

• There is almost always a breeze off the ocean to keep you cool.

• The choice of several swim-up bars.

• The resort was very clean.

• Kids loved the fantastic kids-club whose staff did a great job and the kids mini-disco at night.

• Lots of shade options available by the pool and on the beach.

Travelers disliked:

• By far, the number-one complaint was for the people hawking timeshares. Some felt they were hounded and even ambushed at a complimentary breakfast.  

• Many noted that the rooms could use a renovation.

• While some reviewers were impressed with the level of cleanness, others complained that their rooms smelled or were untidy and the service was inefficient.

• Others said that activities tended to be late or were canceled altogether, particularly during the rain.

• As with most Punta Cana resorts, many of the staff spoke primarily Spanish - some reviewers disliked not being able to communicate with all of the staff especially the maintenance and cleaning staff.

Tips for Staying at the Ocean Blue Punta Cana

• A dress code is required for the restaurants with long pants for men.

• Avoid the complementary VIP breakfast as it is a timeshare presentation.  The people with "H10" on their shirts are timeshare sellers so avoid them if you don't wish to go to a presentation.

• There are no elevators, so guests who have trouble with stairs should be sure to book a ground floor suite.

• Best Punta Cana things to do include:  zip lining, snorkeling, and swimming with the sharks and sting-rays.

• If you ask they will upgrade your drinks to name-brand liquors. 

• Bring an insulated travel mug for your drinks.

• The hotel gets busier on the weekend due to Puerto Rican guests vacationing (especially in the summer months) so if you don't like crowds you make want to plan your out of resort activities and tours on Saturday and Sunday.

• For some ocean wave action and boogie boarding, walk down the beach for about ten minutes to the right of the hotel (when you're facing the water).

Most families and groups were happy with their choice of the Ocean Blue Golf & Beach Resort.  With its all inclusive wedding package, it’s also no surprise that Ocean Blue Punta Cana draws a lot of all inclusive destination wedding events.
