Royalton Chic Punta Cana

, Oakville, ON
2024-11-26
Overall very nice location, food / restaurants were very good.
The buildings / rooms are getting dated. Chipping paint and even mold in ceiling areas ( outdoor bathroom areas ) was noticeable.

Had a great week * definitely helped that the weather was great. [Details]

Staff pushing excursions was annoying almost immediately.
Sanitary measures
Bathrooms had many closed stalls and ran out of toilet paper frequently. 1 of the general bathrooms near the Diamond rooms near beach had actual mold on ceiling that was spread enough that it would have had to have been there for weeks if not months

Worst trip ever

, Crysler, ON
2023-12-04
This was absolutely the worst trip we have ever been on. We reserved a room paid for it prior and then we look at a wall and and hole were they bring the room service out of. Moved three times.. hospitality was awful. We were asked to pick a bottle of liquor, we never got it. When checking out no one helped us bring our things and our ride never came to get to the airport. Besides the weather being so hot I wouldn't recommend this to my worst enemy. [Details]

Good for Party, okay for the rest

, Montréal, QC
2023-08-30
The staff were excellent across the board, with some shout outs to Yudy, Jany, Rose, Raldy, Yulia and the evening entertainment and party vibe was good. Rooms were a little run down and missing basic amenities like slippers, robes and outside handles on the balcony door. A/C had to be turned down to 15C to cool the room. The food was mediocre- Sushi and Italian were both pretty good and Indian (just the samosas and Vindaloo) was decent. Buffets were poor and the Steakhouse was very poor. It's still a good party place with strong drinks if you're a tipper but several levels below an Excellence or Secrets and even below a Catalonia, especially for food. Expected more for an autograph collection hotel. [Details]

Hotel Review - Punta Cana

, Toronto, ON
2023-02-22
Hi, the resort was ok but not worth the price. We've travelled all over the world on cruises and land tours and stayed at many all inclusives... the price paid was more than all other trips. Considering what is offered it was not worth it. For example, the resort doesn't have many activities - not even a ping pong table for rainy days, only 2 pool tables inside the small sports bar. The nightly shows were lame with the same music every night and everything shut down at 11pm sharp in the show area. No water activities even though there's a "water sports" hut on the beach. Not enough beach loungers as everyone - if you don't go down at 7am you're out of luck for a lounger beach or pool side. Not a lush property as far as gardens. The food, esp the buffet, was ok and not many choices for a la carte - not even a Japanese restaurant. My meal at the Italian restaurant was supposed to be Chicken Florentine with spinach - seemed I got a frozen, breaded chicken cutlet with NO spinach and NO wine sauce... was awful. The rooms were very plain and had no solid bathroom door, just a glass door to toilet and shower - very bizarre. Rooms need a refresh, the AC barely cooled the room, no hot water on last day of stay, nowhere to hang towels and toiletry bags, just not worth the money. We've stayed at really nice hotels for MUCH less money... overall, a very boring resort. Unless you're in your 20-30s and only care about drinking all day then we would not recommend this resort.

Fabulous resort

, Cambridge, ON
2022-07-24
The Royalton Chic is a beautiful resort with warm, friendly, helpful staff. They had just opened post Covid only 5 days prior to our arrival and did an exceptional job. A few minor glitches but considering they had just opened, understandable.
Pool, lobby, walkways bathroom were always clean.
The food was good, buffet exceptional. The steak house was hard to get into but otherwise
the other restaurants were good.
I wish I had gotten the name of who appeared to manage the buffet and we saw him in the other dining place, he was fantastic!!!! [Details]

Decided on four days notice I wanted to go south and Punta Cana was the warmest with the best value. Chose Chic because the reviews and it being a modern resort. I was worried it was trying to be more style than substance but after spending a week there I would say it has both. I loved the main pool for temperature and depth. Loved walking the beach. Everything was better that expected and I would have no hesitation going back. [Details]

The staff at the resort are very friendly and helpful and the resort itself is very clean and beautiful. Different Entertainment every evening and the beach and pools are beautiful. Restaurants are delicious with great service. I strongly recommend though when visiting this resort to have American money or Dominican pesos with you because the bank machines rarely have money. Overall it was the best vacation I have had and will definitely be returning. [Details]

Not As What The Pictures Show

, Oakville, ON
2021-11-24
My Experience at this hotel was disappointing, my husband and I were expecting a 5 Star Hotel, what we got was more of a 4 Star Hotel.

Let's start by saying that we booked The Junior Suite, that means that you will be put at the very end of the resort, away from everything else, when we complained about this, and even offered to pay for an upgrade, they were not quick in wanting to help us.

The Restaurants are hard to get into, they tell you that you do not need to mare reservations, what they fail to tell you is that they give Priority to those guests under Diamond Club, they are allowed to make reservations, so therefore, you can sometimes get to a restaurant and have them tell you that it's full.

I would not recommend this resort if you enjoy good food. [Details]

Not worth the money paid

, Toronto, ON
2019-12-02
Issues started from the moment we checked in... we paid extra to secure our specific room. As did our traveling partners. Both rooms were occupied on arrival and we were given less desirable rooms. We spoke to the manager the next day as he was not there when we arrived in the evening. He was the master of defection, nothing was their fault it was their reservation centre. He promised a refund of our additional room selection fee... still no refund received.
The resort was mediocre at best... I will not be returning to this resort. [Details]

In general, the hotel stuff was smily, great and very hard working - until my last day. The last day most of them that were running to serve me and get the sure tip, didn't even say hi to me. I was told by local friends that live in Canada that something like that could happen but was not prepared into what extent so that I wasn't offer the drink nor had the lunch table served as usually. The stuff assumed that the guest run out of the tip money on the last day.
The building is poorly maintained and wouldn't call it 5 star but rather barely 4. Public washrooms smell very bad. The food was great but the floor in the buffet was so greasy and slippery that one had to walk like on the ice.
Some od personel serving the food would deep the thumb Into my soup. The coffee cups had black, dirty circle inside and some personnels clothing was visible dirty.
The phone plugged into the wall outlet couldn't charge fully even in 8 hours. Every other outlet is not working whatsoever. Minibar bottle dispensers weren‘t working either.
The washrooms in the room doesn't have the door!
The beach doesn't have safety markers for the swimmers. Most of the personnel is barely speaking English and doesn't seem to care much about that. Anything that wasn't on the menu or pointed with the finger, was not understood.
BUT for those who are not picky on this, other things were ok such as the entertainment, beach amethysts etc. [Details]
