The negative aspect of staying af Zel Punta Cana was the lack of food and food variety at their buffets, really small portions served at their restaurants. Buffet hours of operation varied and need to ask staff before hand or you will starved. Management needs to fix these issues otherwise nobody will return.

I loved the property, the amenities, the staff service, the quiet it is, the beautiful and big rooms.They make you feel very welcomed to the resort. I did not like much was the food. I give it 2.7/5. In the restaurants..the wait time to get your food orders exceeds the normal waiting time. It wasn't the servers fault, all of them were exceptional. My advice is if you are looking for a place to relax and being lazy then this is a good choice but if you are looking for having fun and entertained then it is not.

Zel was a great experience. I enjoyed the aesthetic of the resort. If you plan on wanting that all inclusive experience, I would not recommend this resort for more than 3 days. We stayed an entire week, and started to run into a few issues towards the end of the vacation. There are only 3 options for dinner, and you have to make reservations for them. All restaurants AND room service close early as well so if you like the night life be sure to eat before you leave or eat while you’re out. There is no microwave in your room either. With that being said, the staff were so personable and made the resort that more enjoyable. They loved to offer shots, they never stopped asking if you needed anything and they also were great at making sure you knew what they had to offer at the resort. There were arts and craft classes, bartending classes, yoga and pilates. The beach club should have a separate review, just because it was our favorite part of the stay. Beautiful scenery! Delicious food! It was heaven on earth. All in all, it was a great birthday celebration and we had a great time.

The staff were excellent, friendly, fun and attentive. My only complaint is the cleanliness of the pool. The main pool was alway clean an crystal clear. However, the “lagoon” area around ours and all the other swim up suites desperately needed a good vacuuming. They are surrounded by lush tropical vegetation, no doubt difficult to maintain, but they really need a better solution.

My first and last visit to the Mediterranean resort Zel only in name. The staff was downright terrible lack of professionalism. The food in the buffet was downright terrible, and after four days the buffet did not serve meals for unknown reasons, the music as befits a "Mediterranean resort" was very loud and also rap, several requests not so much to change the music to Caribbean music but at least to make it quieter, nothing helped, I must say that the resorts next door were completely different, subdued Caribbean music. Another issue was the lack of coffee, it was only served in one place in the lobby, which I read that coffee was supposed to be around every corner. And finally, our concierge Aurora is the pinnacle of everything, unprofessional and a liar. Mr. Nadal, with all due respect to you, but I will discourage everyone from staying at Żele. Yours sincerely, Jacek B

We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel—it was perfect for the quiet vacation and downtime we were looking for. Our room, 5002 (the Master King Swim-Up Suite), had everything we needed: a spacious living area with a kitchenette, and a bedroom with essentially two bathrooms—each with its own vanity in separate areas. I tend to wake up earlier than my husband, so being able to close the bedroom door while I made coffee was a great touch. The room layout was incredibly convenient and thoughtfully designed. The food at the resort was pretty good overall, but the presentation was outstanding—every dish looked beautiful. While the hotel isn't directly on the beach, it's only a quick 2-minute ride down by cart. The beach itself was stunning, and the beach restaurant was a highlight. The food there was decent, and while the service could have been better, we really appreciated how peaceful and quiet it was. We also ventured out to a restaurant called Jellyfish and ended up going twice—it was absolutely worth the extra money for a nicer dinner experience. A quick tip: bring some cash for tipping. You tend to get slightly better service when you tip a few dollars here and there. Overall, this resort was a wonderful spot for a relaxing getaway, and we’d definitely consider coming back.

Loved it here! staff was great and the crowd was fun. food was really good but it did get a little repetitive when there are only 3 restaurants. we did have to take a golf cart to the beach which i didn’t mind at all but some people do. over all had a great stay and would go back.
