From the minute my boyfriend and I arrived, it was like stepping into our own personal paradise. The staff was friendly and helpful and check in was a breeze. While waiting for our room, we sat at the lobby bar and had a few drinks. All of the bartenders were extremely attentive and we never had to ask for a... more

We stayed at the Melia Caribe Tropical from 6/23 to 6/30. Overall the trip was excellent, I found myself sad to be going home. We arrived a little early an were advised that our room would be ready in an hour. They gave us our keys and sure enough within an hour our room was ready and out luggage was... more

It's been less than 24 hours since my return from my first trip to the Dominican Republic. I normally don't write reviews, but I felt this resort deserved a special exception. To sum it up in two words, don't go. If you want to know why, read on! First, though, I'll knock out the good parts of our trip. Don't... more

The Melia caribe is beautiful hotel and I would absolutely stay again. We chose the Royal Service option, which is the only way to go I feel. The Royal Service pool is absolutely incredible, quiet and is more secluded than the main pools near the beach. The Gabi club has delicious food at any time of day and the staff... more

We stayed from 6/22-6/29/09. Despite reading some negative reviews prior to our trip, I have nothing but praise for this resort. We opted to spend our money on the Royal Service instead of trip insurance and it definitely paid off. We were greeted with drinks during check-in and escorted to our room in a timely fashion. We were a little... more

I am so glad I read all the reviews before the trip as that helped set my expectation. This hotel is beautifully maintained with impressive grounds, the workers are genuinely nice and happy. The beach areas are beautiful and I have no problem getting a shaded area with chairs in April. The room is basic but comfortable, always kept clean.... more

My wife and I just returned from a week at the Melia Caribe Tropical Resort and can't wait to tell all our friends what a beautiful resort it is. I read a number of negative reviews and cannot believe that these people went to the same place. We booked the vacation with Island Breeze Travel online and paid a total... more

I traveled here in April of '09 with my parents and my brothers (3). We were at this resort 3 times previously and we actually had our first vacation there. So we decided so see how different the resort is now. We actually bought the vacation package in February and a good thing we did! In march all the planes... more
