Secrets Tides Punta Cana All Inclusive - Nur für Erwachsene

“A lot of positives with just a few negatives.”

My wife and I stayed in a master suite ocean view, swim out over Christmas and New Year’s. The room was the highlight of our trip. You have full sun from sun up till about 1 o’clock without having to go early morning to try to save chairs around the preferred pool. Probably the most negative thing of our trip was the layout or design of the resort. From our room to where most of the restaurants are was a 10 minute walk. Because of that, we only ate at the buffet one time. It was easier to order room service. Room service would get to your room before you could walk and walk back. That is another issue, communication/language barrier, trying to order a pot of decaf and regular coffee was never carried out correctly. We always ended up with one pot of coffee and one pot of hot water. Ordering a simple eggs over easy bacon and hash brown breakfast turned into a three course meal by the time they added fruit, rolls and sausage. Our opinion that was just a waste of food since we hardly ever touched it. That said, all the restaurants gave you generally more food than you could finish. Teppanyak table was our favorite and does require reservations. Also, without the show you get the same type of Asian food at the Meraki and a little different assortment of food. Tierra and El Patio tied for our second favorite restaurants. And seriously, we did not have any food that was that we’d consider bad. We were probably the most disappointed in the Italian restaurant, Portofino’s. Believe it or not we found one of the fastest hottest good bar. Food was at the food truck by the preferred bar and preferred pool. Just a nice afternoon snack between lunch and dinner. Lotta questions is preferred over non-preferred worth it. In our opinion, yes the butler does take care of a few things that otherwise takes your time away from having fun. The liquor is definitely top shelf and what’s really nice is they do have two preferred bars where they’ll ask your room number when you go in and you get a lot more personalized one on one service. We found all the staff to be extremely friendly and helpful as best they could with the language barrier. Only a few times the bartenders seem to be more interested in carrying on a conversation than taking care of you, but I think that’s going to be expected anywhere to a certain degree. Sorry, we cannot really comment on the beach other than we did walk down there and sand feels good. Appears to be plenty of chairs, but very wavy when we’re there. The swim up at our room and all the pools water on the cold side. Until around two or three in the afternoon if it was the sunny day. But it is December. Overall, the resort was a good experience. The room was the highlight of our trip. The food definitely was great. The total atmosphere of the personnel in the resort was very positive. The biggest negative was the layout of the relationship of the rooms to the restaurants. Because of that we probably will not be back to this particular resort.

“Secrets Tides Punta Cana”

My wife and I are just returning from Secrets Tides having spent a week from 27/12/25-03/01/26. We both enjoyed ourselves very much and were happy with our choice of this Resort. We stayed in a Preferred Room on the 4th floor of building 1. Overall, the Resort is quite impressive being only 2 years old. It was very clean, modern and very picturesque. We spent most of our days at the Preferred Pool and yes, I did throw a couple of towels over chairs before going to breakfast in the morning. Although, our first day we had no trouble getting chairs around this pool without reserving them. We used the gym facilities every morning as well and found it to be a very functional and modern area. We don’t consider ourselves “foodies” in any way and did enjoy our meals at all the restaurants. Our best meal was at the Meraki where we just sat in the restaurant rather than trying to reserve the show at the Hibachi. We also really enjoyed the steak and lobster for New Year’s Eve that we had at the Seaside Grill. Everyone who works here try their absolute best to make your time extremely enjoyable. Whether they’re cleaning, serving drinks or entertaining I got the feeling that they really appreciated your stay here. The beach is spectacular as well with powdery brown sand. The water is very wavy and makes for great body surfing. There is a calmer portion allowing for simple wading into the ocean as well. There are vendors on the beach, but they never hassled anyone to purchase their wares and a simple, “no gracias”, and they would move on. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves and would return.

“Best Inclusive Resort Yet”

Our stay at Secrets Tides Punta Cana was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, everything was seamless, relaxing, and exceeded our expectations. Our butler Yulian absolutely made the entire experience. He helped accommodate our every need with so much care, attention, and professionalism, and consistently delivered far beyond what we ever expected. No request ever felt like too much, and he was always one step ahead, making sure everything was perfect before we even had to ask. His thoughtfulness, responsiveness, and genuine kindness made us feel incredibly special the entire stay. Yulian went above and beyond in the most meaningful ways, including surprising us with the most beautiful engagement setup with roses on the floor, bed, and in the hot tub, plus a “Just Engaged” banner on our door. It was such a heartfelt and unforgettable moment that we will cherish forever. If you are staying in the Preferred Members Club, request Yulian without hesitation. Also, make sure to stop by the Preferred Lounge and visit Felix for a cocktail. He makes the best passionfruit margaritas and is such a pleasure to be around. Truly the best. 10 out of 10 recommend this hotel. We will definitely be coming back. An absolutely perfect stay from start to finish.

“The good and the bad”

My wife and I stayed at Punta Cana Secret Tides over the December 2025 Christmas Break. We had a very good first impression when entering the property. Resort is new, expansive and clean. The room was fresh, clean and quite modern. The grounds and pools were amazing. However, there are some significant problems with this resort. The biggest is food quality. In this aspect, the resort has to do better. Chips and hot dog at the barefoot grill were very stale and old. The steak at the grill was so tough we could not cut it with steak knives, The bisque at the seafood restaurant was so uneatable that us and our neighboring table returned it. The Asian restaurant was okay (not great) and same with the buffet. The second largest problem was inter-department coordination and communication. Here, we saw a series of misses. The best example was on our first night. The front desk told us during check in that no reservations to the restaurants were required. We came to learn for our first night (Dec 24) all restaurants required reservations. Also, food concierge did not know all restaurants for that night had the same set menu. Minor problems also included, non existent pool staff (Me and other patrons opted to just getting drinks from the bars ourselves) and the overall impression that asking anything from staff was seen as a inconvenience to them. Overall, Punta Cana Secret Tides is NOT a high end resort. The problems above need attention. We have been to significantly better resorts for the money.
