Come see what it really means to get away from it all.
At Excellence Punta Cana we surround you with luxury. We seclude you among palms on a perfect white sand beach. We invite you to experience the natural friendliness of people who call the Caribbean home and to enjoy the ease of an all-adult resort. Here, everything is taken care of and nothing is left out. So you are free to create those moments you dream of… and memories you'll have forever.
At Excellence Punta Cana you are secluded but not isolated. Our all-adult, all suite world is situated on a beautiful beach in a palm grove on the east coast of the Dominican Republic, convenient to both Punta Cana International Airport and La Romana International Airport. Its architecture is in the classic colonial style, and two enormous pools wind through our grounds. We created The Excellence Club to provide an exclusive level of luxury and amenities at each of the Excellence Group Resorts. You are privately greeted and checked into your suite, which is adorned with welcoming flowers upon your arrival. Each morning, fresh fruit and newspapers are delivered to your suite. You can enjoy our private Excellence Club beach and lounge, complete with complimentary Internet access, buffet & bar service.
At Excellence Punta Cana, dining is truly international, and you have a total of eight irresistible restaurant options. In addition to its evening fare, our Italian restaurant serves breakfast and lunch every day. For dinner, you may choose from our French, Mediterranean, Asian/Japanese & Mexican, as well as restaurants specializing in lobster steak and pizzeria. And best of all, reservations are never required. Ten different bars complete the experience. You can swim up to the pool bar or join fellow fans in the sports bar. Whatever your pleasure, there is a convivial watering hole for everyone. Or you can stay in and enjoy room service, which is available 24-hours a day.
Our Spa is virtually a resort within a resort. It is tucked away in a beautiful colonial building facing the Dominican mountains. There, in a private relaxation garden surrounding a Zen fountain, you will discover a unique combination of hydrotherapy and indigenous treatments that allow you to create your own moments of wellness and renewal. You may choose from single and couple treatment cabins, or opt to enjoy your spa services outdoors, facing the sea. Our spa offers a complete array of personal pampering services, including expert skin care and hair styling. Separate facilities for men and women include authentic Swedish saunas, steam rooms and luxury locker rooms. Our spa also offers you an on-site gym and large whirlpool. Healthy refreshments are always close at hand. Visit the spa boutique for the finest skin-care products and other selections.
Your stay at Excellence Punta Cana is peaceful but never boring. You can go scuba diving and deep-sea fishing or enjoy a friendly game of bocce, water polo, beach football, squash, tennis, archery or billiards. Or, wrap up a day of snorkeling and diving with a horseback ride along the beach. You can improve your fitness and personal wellness through classes in yoga, dancing or water aerobics, or go for a jog on our 607-meter track. All this is in addition to Excellence Punta Cana's fully equipped fitness and cardio-conditioning center. In between all these activities, you can even take Spanish or cooking classes. Above all, we want you to enjoy as much activity, or as little, as you wish.

Jills great find Nov 20, 2009
I left my new, relatively expensive, suntan lotion on the beach and when I went back the next day, the towel runner ... remembered me and saved it. He was so thoughtful and even though we don't speak the same language, I hope he knew how appreciative I was!! The only thing I might add would be more shopping. Though the hotel has pretty much everything you might want...it doesn't have more. Since I don't like to leave the property, that might be my ONLY suggestion. Great food, great staff...I couldn't have been happier. We will be asking the whole family to go for a reunion there, I love it that much!!

Overall the resort was very nice, and we will probably revisit.The mosquitos(pitbulls with wings) were deadly.We couldn't ... understand why the pools closed at 6pm at an adult only resort.The staff was great and the food was very good.Very pleased with the sports and activities.Tennis & basketball courts as well as the instructors were great.The weight room was excellent.The fact that we did not have to make reservations to eat was a major plus.

We are a couple, 25 and 29, just vacationing! We had a garden room, thought about upgrading before we even got there...NO ... NEED! Our room was awesome. King bed, hot tub, stocked mini bar and a hamock on our porch! we made friends with a couple that had a top notch room and that was AWESOME, but you would love either! Lets just say the first half hour we were there we walked around in shock at how beautiful this place was. we had a few drinks(mamajuana-yikes) and were pulled up on stage to be in a show! the staff become your family in minutes at excellence. they are truely amazing! Each morning you awake to a schedule of activities. You never have a reason to be bored, unless thats what you want! The bars are spread out all over the resort. AND the resturants are just excellent! NO we didnt get sick from anythinggggg, like some said on reviews. We enjoyed each meal of the day! Our prize for that contest i mentioned was a romantic dinner for two on the beach. Its a must do! We Loved Excellence. We will be back there next year!

Relaxing Vacation
Tberry Nov 14, 2009
A fantastic vacation getaway. Spent 8 days doing absolutley nothing, the hardest decision was whether to swim in the ocean ... or at the pool and which of several resturaunts to eat at. Best thing about this place is the very cheerful and responsive staff, especially [...] at the pool. If your looking for a fast paced exiting place then this isn't for you. It's relatively isolated on the island and takes awhile to get to any excursions. Our room was compfortable and roomy a bit dated and the bed was a bit hard but we didn't spend much time in the room anyway, what we had was good. The shower had a small leak but everything else was working fine. No single item was 5 star luxury but the overall experience was perfect. Entertainment was okay, a good break and a good way to spend a few hours. Not Las Vegas standards but then we were in the Dominican, if you want Las Vegas class entertainment then don't come here. Food was good, again not 5 star but better than most. Beach was clean and uncluttered. The sand was clean and they kept it groomed. Plenty of beach and pool recliners were available. Towels were plentiful. Best to get with one ot the staff members and for a few dollars tip they will "reserve" a place for you. Tipping is not expected nor encouraged however for a few dollars you can significantly increase the service. Alchol was plentiful and good, may have been a bit watered down but with unlimited drinks this wasn't a problem. Did do two excursions which were very fun, recommend you book any excursion through the hotel, they take care of everything. We are already planning our next trip to an excellence property.

Be careful on Thursday's because they let in the Merchants from 6-10 pm to sell their shelled jewelry. They are extremely pushy and very expensive. They don't like no for an answer. They are set up in the main lobby on the outside so you can find a way around them.

The Oriental restaurant was the best ( good ). The Lobster house was the worst. I did not try Room Service, you may want to. Helpful Hint: Save your money and stay away. If you go don't bother with the upgrade to the Excellence Club, you get clue less concierge, liquor in the room ( All Inclusave and free in the resort ? ), upgraded Amenities - What? , Morning Fruit basket about 7:00 PM, Morning News Paper about 4:00 PM and the opportunity to spend more money then you should.

Arrange transportation to and from the airport beforehand using Cocotours or another such company because they will only charge $35-$45. Taking a cab will cost $70 and the ride will be the most dangerous you will ever take in a car. The resort is one hour away from the airport.

Hobie Cat Sailing was great, but they do not train you. You must be a seasoned sailor to enjoy it - they may upgrade them soon, but for now it's only a 14ft. Ask for [...], he's the best staffer at the Dive Shop Area. Also, since the resort is North of Barvaro Beach, it's a long ride up - but worth it!!!

just down the beach from the resort is a sort of camp set up called nancy's walmart. do not buy cigars from there. they will give you a good cigar to try, and then sell you a box filled with rolled banana leaves. the best place we found to buy cigars is the rancho de differente gift shop outside of the resort. we stopped there on the way back from the atv tour and picked up a box of 25 along with some mama juana for $60 cheaper than on the resort.
