My wife and I recently dined at Blue Marlin twice during our stay at the Sanctuary Cap Cana, a Luxury Collection Adult All-Inclusive Resort, Dominican Republic. On both occasions we had a wonderful waiter—Miguel—and during our Romantic Couples Dinner (not a part of the all...inclusive package) he was assisted by Bladimir. On the food was remarkable both times, but the beachfront dinner was exceptional! The Caribbean lobster was unparalleled in it’s excellent preparation—and the accompanying accoutrements were simply perfect: an absolutely delicious meal and perfectly romantic evening! The steak was similarly exceptional. The waiter—second to none! I unequivocally highly recommend this restaurant!More

We tried to make a reservation. Rez # was not working. Called the hotel who transferred us to the concierge. Concierge hung up on us. Drove to the hotel and could not get in because we had no reservation. I assume because it is on...TA that you don't have to be a hotel guest to eat there. Either TA needs to start making reservations available or they need to be on Open Table. Reservations are impossible and only Hotel guests are allowed in. We are staying here a month and wanted to try it. It's IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!More

We tried all the appetizers here and they're all good. The shrimp curry and the seafood ceviche were our most favorite. Don't forget the signature cocktail drinks. The Cayenne non alcohol drink was the best

I lunched and also pay for a romatic dinner at the beach at night the same day, I used this place to ask my girlfriend to married me so the moment was just too romantic, in order to get her the surprise, Bladimir and Juan,...waiters, talked to the chef so that they could write marry me on the dessert plate and place the ring on it.

I am not a big into seafood, but the ambiance of this restaurant is out of this world. We went for dinner and listened to the waves crashing while we ate. It was so romantic and the food was incredible. There are options for people...who are not into seafood, but I still found myself trying new things. Wish we had a chance to go more than once.More

I don't know but I would email the concierge and ask. I wouldn't think so because they ask for your room number when you walk in. Enjoy your stay!
