Not every worker there gives you nice service i was in DR for the first time i was clueless regarding how everything works and i have two girls following me around i thought they were the ones taking care of me… i had issues with my room being dirty (pillows robes ) i found “insects” and i was never offered a new room i didnt know i have to let the butler know because this whole time i thought the girls that followed me around were the ones taking care of everything and i told them the issues (in the morning) about my room and they never fix it… because i got back to the hotel like around 11 and went to the front desk and asked for new pillows because the left the dirty ones at that time jose garcia was the one that i let him know and my pillows and new blanket never came no one help the next morning came down furious at told the concierge and i found out he was the one that was in charge of my bld i didnt know that since the girls told they were there for me… he did send room service immediately and they cleaned it but i was still not a full satisfied with the service that i was provided and promised (before i spoke to my concierge )

Antonio Gomez is hands down one of the best bartenders we’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting! During our stay at Ocean Blue and Sand Punta Cana, Antonio went above and beyond to make our vacation truly unforgettable. Not only was he incredibly skilled at making amazing drinks, but his friendly and attentive service made us feel like VIPs the entire time. He always had a warm smile, remembered our preferences, and went out of his way to ensure we were happy and satisfied. Antonio truly embodies exceptional hospitality, and we are so grateful for his outstanding service. Ocean Blue and Sand is lucky to have someone like Antonio on their team, and we hope they continue hiring more amazing people like him. Thanks to Antonio, our stay felt like a dream vacation. Highly recommend visiting and letting Antonio take care of you at the bar!

I loved the steak house and the quick access to the beach. What I don’t like was the pool and the Jacuzzi were ice cold and I mean to the point where my daughter loved the island sick. Also, there aren’t enough activities for me at this resort. Everything is centered around the pool and unfortunately, the pool is never warm. We also had a hard time getting dinner reservations, even though we had the concierge service. That was extremely frustrating. I have stayed at the resort in Jamaica that is owned by the same hotel brand and the experience was completely different

Blue Ocean & Sands was amazing! The amount of entertainment is worth the cost of admission. We booked through Expedia to save a couple hundred dollars on our 6-day stay! Checking in was a breeze, and with your room key crimped on your wrist, you didn't need to bring anything with you the entire stay! The number of restaurants and with changing menus was an added bonus. We had an excursion concierge, Alfredo, reach out to assist in booking 2 excursions. Booking was done in the main lobby and was super easy. The only annoying thing about our stay was trying to get lounge chairs by the pool or beach. Overall, our stay was amazing! We would definitely stay here again!

1. Privilege = Fantasía, no existe diferencia obvia. No existe ningún control sobre los que lo han pagado o no. Las áreas Privilege están llenos con gente ajena. 2. Excesiva reservación de litreras - posiblemente por parte de los empleados ya que no hay libres a las 08:00 o 08:30 am. 3. Atención deficiente a menudo en la sección Privilege de la Villa Marina con esperas largas para la atención del cafetero y los mismos mozos a veces - aunque habían algunos muy buenos. 4. Reservaciones para la Gala Navideña era una farsa y todo el mundo ofrecía distintas instrucciones y horarios. 5.El Rest. Francés - la recepción sumamente ruda al negar sandalias para los hombres, a pesar de estar vestido elegantemente, pero las permitía para las mujeres, o sea una discriminación abierta e innecesaria Pero aún, pero era el mal trato! 6. Las reservas para los demás restaurantes estaban medio confusas. 7. Las tiendas muy caras - $usd 13 por una cajetilla de 20 cigarillos - demasiado alto el precio!! 8. En general, los empleados muy agradables y colaboradores, muy amables, pero no en todos los casos.

This property is not handicapped accessible for the most part and made it very hard to enjoy my stay. The girl at check in did not explain anything to us or help us at all-we didn't even get a welded packet for the 2nd room or a card for pool towels which we found about our last day. Food and drinks are not 24 hours which left us hungry a lot of the time.

It was really difficult to get a reservation at the two nicer restaurants. We never ate at one the whole time we were there. The online tool was not working to make the reservation, so there you go. The pool and beach longer situation was not good. Basically, you had to wake up every day before 7 am walk down and reserve a lounger. If you did not do this there were no loungers left and no where to find a seat or shade. We paid a lot of money to have to wake up early everyday and try to reserve seats and restaurants. The special breakfast on day one was basically a new version of a time share pitch that wasted our time so avoid this if you go. Other than that the other food options were decent but nothing special. The workers were very nice and worked extremely hard to make it pleasant. The beach was clean and very beautiful but not good for snorkeling during this time. We had a great time just relaxing and enjoying the other facilities. The shows were fun and the property had a lot of events.

What I dislike is you have to wake up at 6:30a-7a to claim a chair by the pool or beach or you won't find any later until people leave for lunch which is around 3-4p. They should have enough chairs for all guests
