I just returned from the Dominican Republic (14.06. 12-29.06. 12) where I rested with my wife on a honeymoon trip.
I'll start in order. We flew through Zurich (Swiss Airlines, I recommend) from Kyiv to Zurich 3 hours, there 2 hours and from Zurich to Punta Canna 10 hours.
I met the Tourist Service company (in principle, not bad).
We arrived at the hotel at about 17.00, settled quickly, drove to our house (3-storey houses, 4 rooms per floor), unloaded the luggage and started!! ! We are newlyweds (in the hotel booking in the voucher this is INDICATED) and we go into the room: wine is spilled on the floor, pieces of bread are lying on the floor, towels are not fresh, but there is a small bottle of rum as a gift and not fresh fruit wrapped in plastic! The room is of course more or less normal, but if only it was clean!!!

We then noticed how other tourists are met (not even newlyweds) at the reception, everyone is given a cocktail! Can you say that you care about the little things? But the quality of rest consists of such trifles!
We went to the beach. The beach, palm trees and ocean are awesome! The nature in the hotel is super, the territory of the hotel is huge, as if you are walking somewhere in the botanical garden!! ! We return back to the room (the day of arrival), and there water from the ceiling from the air conditioner leaked onto the floor of the room! We called the reception and said about it, they answered that they would come tomorrow and fix everything! The next day they came and poked around, and in the evening again the floor of the room was flooded with water !!!
On the 3rd day we were given another room!! ! We go into the room clean, everything is tidy and the air conditioner blows WARM air (and it’s impossible to sleep on the street without air conditioning) on ​ ​ the fourth day we complain and they offer us to move to another room again (just imagine laying out and folding things every time !!! ) we refused (zadolbalo!!! ) and asked to bring a floor fan.
On the third day, a thunderstorm began and it rained for a day and a half, and for the whole rest it rained 3-4 times an hour.
There is a lot of food for breakfast, lunch and dinner, but it is all monotonous! Cocktails in the bars (on the beach, at the bar, at the reception) make very tasty and generally Dominican rum is super!
We took 2 excursions to Saonna and Catalinita (the most interesting and most expensive $ 900 for two), but the excursions are cool.
We didn't go anywhere else from the hotel. Shops in the hotel are expensive.
Take mosquito and mosquito repellent with you! I didn't have a single living place on my body!! ! That's horrible! They eat there, although they said that they regularly poison them! In the store they have "OFF" is 20 bucks!!! ! Ordinary consultation with a doctor in a hotel costs 90 bucks!!!
Everywhere it is customary to tip from 1 to 5 bucks.

On the last day of rest, we checked out from the hotel before 12.00, went to take a cocktail, then decided to go for lunch and the concierge from the reception comes up to us and asks if we are leaving today? we say yes. are you from this number? We answer yes. He takes out an envelope with the number of our room and pours out our gold (20 grams), which the cleaning lady found in the safe after we rented the room!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ! We found our cleaning lady and gave 10 bucks, I gave an example about theft, although we were told that an expensive camera was stolen from someone near the pool.
Regarding the sun loungers on the beach: there are enough of them, but there are few umbrellas, people take from 7.00 in the morning, or sunbathe in the shade of palm trees, although you can burn out very quickly!
The people are cheerful and kind.
In general, the rest was pleasant, although there are some small flaws!
