Excellence Carmen Punta Cana - Adults Only All Inclusive

Excellence Carmen Punta Cana - Adults Only All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent
"Excellence Carmen - Punta Cana is a "FABULOUS" resort. All the staff were very friendly. Rooms were spotless. Thank You "Irinese". Restaurants were "Very Good". Bartenders were on point every night. Ilroy (Magna bartender) Plenty of choices. Room service was delicious!! Only downside is the ongoing renovations. If you can block the noise out you should be able to have a great time. Only other unfortunate thing was that the steakhouse restaurants ran out of filet mignon. But other choices are available. This is by far the "Best" resort in the DR if you want to relax and unwind. Can't wait to return again."
