We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Excellence, while noticing many of the the things we expected to see/experience thanks to reading months of reviews. The arrival and check through at the airport is the easiest you can ever experience. No hassles, the lines moved as fast as one could walk and 5 min. after you step off the plane you... more

My boyfriend and I took a trip to the resort from 11/22 to 11/28, the first time at Excellence for both of us. My main goal was to relax, worry about nothing, and spend all day lounging by a beautiful beach or pool--and that's just how it turned out. Some of the reviews other people left made me worry, but... more

EVERYTHING @ Excellence Punta Cana was superb from the moment we arrived and were greeted with champagne, cool fragrant towels, and a "welcome home" from the staff. The bell staff: Vidal Morales, Eduard, Eduardo, Francisco, and Miguel Diaz were extremely helpful guiding us through the resort and genuinely made us feel welcome. Executive chef Berthold Dettweiler Kopf along with a... more

My wife and I just returned from Excellence where we stayed from 11/21-11/26. This was our second time staying at Excellence and was far less enjoyable than our first visit in July 2007. Here are some of the issues we noticed this time: * The pool chair/towel insanity. As previous reviewers have mentioned, most pool chairs are reserved with towels... more

So after reading many negative reviews I was a little nervous about staying at the Excellence, but all of my great expectations were surpassed and we had a wonderful time!! We booked a private car to bring us to the hotel b/c we wanted to have the most direct trip possible, with no stopping at other hotels. We went thru... more

We stayed at EPC Nov.18-25, and loved every minute of it! The weather was not great, it rained all day one day, and on/off another. There was also a lot of cloudy windy days. We actually didin't miss it that much. The spa is awesome! We had a hot stone massage, and a couple's massage. Both were wonderful. The couple's... more

My wife and I traveled to Excellence 11/20-11/26 and had a great time. We have been to Punta Cana three other times, Melia Caribe with our kids-very nice, Paradisus Palma Real just ourselves was nice and Grand Paradise with the kids-horrible). The worst part about this resort is the drive there and back, the roads are terrible and it is... more

Returned on Nov 18th from a 5 day trip to the Resort. The hotel is located about 1 hour from the airport. Other reviewers complianed about the "bumpy" road, even suggesting to take gravol pills. These folks obviously don't travel much. The in-land road is fine (although the return transfer took the "other" road and it was somewhat bumpy at... more

This was our first time to the Excellence. Great Honeymoon destination, landscaping on the resort was breathtaking. Overall the grounds including the pools were very well maintained. Great restaurants! Our favorites were Agave & Spice for dinner and we thoroughly enjoyed the daily breakfast buffet at Tuscana. The service at the resort bars and restaurants was great as well. There... more
