The resort is beautiful with tons to do. I’ve seen complaints about having to walk distances to get to things, but there are plenty of resort carts to give rides and the walks are not bad. The beaches are gorgeous, and while the wandering vendors could get annoying, some did have some fun souvenirs or a monkey to hold and the Hard Rock personnel were quick to step in if they didn’t move on when you said “No.” What made our trip truly magical though was the Hard Rock staff. Everyone was friendly and responsive to our needs. The wait staff at the beaches came around regularly. Restaurant staff were responsive and quick to address issues. We have been to Hard Rock properties as regular guests, then members, and on this occasion part of the Hall of Fame. For this trip, I want to give a special shout out to Wascar and Joel. As Hall of Fame members, they attended to every need from dinner reservations, reserving beach spots, to arranging a special, private dinner on the beach for our recent graduating HS seniors. While we have always enjoyed our Hard Rock stays, these two men raised our vacation to a new level!

Hotel's Favourite
The Hard Rock In Punta Cana is by far our favorite vacation destination. This facility is spotless, beautiful and a true non-stop ride...I need a vacation from my vacation. The list of the to-do's is a mile long and everyone is exceptionally nice and engaging. My diet was wrecked from all of the delicious foods and the variety of restaurants. This is the true WOW factor. You can't walk 50 feet without some type of food offerings, even at the pool, shopping mall or even outside the casino. We can't wait to go back at Christmas for another visit.

We were guests of a wedding that took place in HRC - Punta Cana. In many ways, we were positively surprised: the suite has been recently remodeled and the result was really tasteful; there is a wide variety of restaurants that serve good food (better than the average all inclusive hotel); and there are plenty of activities to explore. However, the service is not very reliable: one day, the staff is really nice and in the other day they barely look at your face. We had a really bad experience at Toro Restaurant, for example, with the waiter being incredibly rude.

Hard Rock Punta Cana, I been to this resort 4 times, since 2019. Of course the 1st stay was amazing wanting to go back again. However since the resurgence of Covid this resort has been renovating, but here it's all about the money. The send you a welcome text and then they continue to harass you about their promotions and to attend the 90 minute presentation. They food was amazing the 1st time around However, this year it was horrible. The food is never hot, sitting on burners they can adjust the temps to ensure that the food is at least warm, they have the same food daily pool side, and no matter which location the result remains the same. I went to the Brazilian restaurant twice, and it was like having A students and C students on staff. Some get it right and others don't. For a tropical island the expectation is that it would be hot outside, however it was just as hot inside the building. The air conditioning was non existent and for this establishment and all of the money they charge I expect more. The hotel rooms the air conditioner is lowered throughout the night making the room the same temperature as outside and when I inquired about this concern I was advised that this was there standard. Lastly upon leaving the have someone appoach you to ask about your stay, and if you have complaints they would like to offer you a coupon to stay either there or another one of the properties, however the scam is that you pay a percentage for you to lock in the price. It's not really a 50% coupon the price they quoted was 150 dollars less than what I paid this time. It's a scam to get you to come back. I thought that they were really interested in my experience and my stay. SCAM SCAM SCAM, I WILL NOT ADVISE YOU YO STAY. My friend stayed at Breathless and had an amazing time. That will be my next stop

This trip lived up to our hopes. (May 28 - June 4, 2023). Our first "beach all inclusive" trip since COVID 19 was one that our family was really looking forward to. We did a lot of research for the Dominican Republic as that island nation has a plethora of choices. In the end, we chose the Hard Rock hotel because we felt we could guarantee ourselves a certain level of comfort and service and activities that would entice the kids and the adults alike. The strengths 1) The Grounds There are many many positive features and I hope I can do justice to them all. Starting with the property, the beach was absolutly fabulous. The sand was soft and expansive, the ocean was warm... almost too warm (but remember tempertures ranged from 27C at night to 31 C during the day with a humidex of 39C) so be prepared with hats, sunscreen and swim shirts to protect you from burning. The beach is groomed regularly and you can walf for ages. There was ample supply of chairs, cabanas, umbrellas that you did not need to worry about finding a spot at 7:00 am and holding it. The resort is HUGE! While I chose to walk the grounds in order to photograph flowers, etc. there are a significant number of "golf cart trains" that will take you from one end of the resort to the other. Simply wait at one of the designted pick up spots and a member of staff will pick you up at no charge. I will include a few photos of the grounds and the including the beach. Maintenance is very good and the resort is always clean. This is especially true of the outdoor "Banos" located at the pools and the beach. Attendants cleaned those facilities consistently. The rooms, with our family of 4 we decided to rent the "Islander Jr Suite" with 2 king sized beds and a sofa bed. The room was very large and came with everything you would expect bar fridge etc. The jacuzzi tup on the private balcony was a pleasant surprise. The bathroom was stunning!!!! If you can, take pictures.. Sunrises on the beach are special, the gardens and the use of water fountains createda very lovely atmosphere. The Services: The service was generally quite good. Shortly after signing in we were assigned to someone who would be someone you could access easily to ask questions of. Cossete was our assistant and although her job was also to "up sale" you on becoming a Hall of Fame member what I appreciated most was the fact that if you said "no thank you" she didn't abandon you. She helped with dinner reservations, answered all of my questions and went out of her way to help us plan '"off site" activities for a cost. Where I appreciated her support most was toward the end of our visit. My son, fell ill from dehydration and she helped me to navigate and access the healthcare service at the hotel and eventually the hospital. She even facilitated a 6 hour extension to our departure at no additional cost and always sent texts asking about the well being of my eldest! I very much appreciated that genuine care beyond normal when I needed assistance. Rarely would I speak about the gym. But I made good use of this and it was OUTSTANDING. Clean extremely well equipped with top notch fitness classes!!!! This was one place where I felt they really invested not only in creating a wonderful space but the staff there were top notch! The food was fine. We did eat a lot of times at the buffet restaurants but at lunch we took advantage of the "food truck" model they had at the pools and on the beach. We struggled to get into the Italian restaurant as you could not make a reservation. The food there was good and Zen and Toro (Tapenyaki and Steak House) were absolutely solid. Overall the meals were not spectacular but any complaints I have were minor. The recreational facilities / services we availed ourselves of included, the basketball court, the water slides (the kids loved not having any long lines), the golf cart "train", the medic on site, a few shows at night within the theatre, the virtual reality room, the ice cream parlour, mini-golf and many more. I wish I had played pool , pickle ball ad tennis but the sun was oppressivley hot. I did not take advantage of their golf course as it hada hefty $300 USD cost. My family was very active and with all of the pools and poolside bars there was never a dull moment. Even the child centre was a huge hit for our 8 year old. Well equipped and supervised and this gave our son to make a similarly aged friend from Colorado. The challenges. This is a huge resort, reportedly the largest in the Domincan Repubic. What it may lack in terms of charm it makes up for in terms of providing a consistantly good to very good standard of practice. The staff do a good job and are never demading of tips but of course, they appreciate them. The maid service provided was daily and that was appreciated but you had to understand that your room might not have been attended to until after 4:00 pm. The cost of staying at this resort was high! However, the ammenities, and the ready availability of those ammenities dimmed the pain of paying a premium price to attend. All in all, my kids loved it and my wife amd I felt we got our money's worth!
