This hotel was formerly the Secrets Excellence Punta Cana - now Hotel Barcelo Premium.

Overall a very nice holiday. The rooms are average, food was average but the beach is great. They say this is on one of the 10 best beaches in the world. The beach is groomed. Pool is good, games room is a good past time when it rains. The Tokyo restaurant has the best food. If you walk down the beach about 1 hr, you’ll get to a market, lot’s of anything you might need. Obs - If you leave a tip or candy or something on your pillow, you’ll get your room cleaned faster. Otherwise you have to wait until about 5-6 pm. Bring candy, that way you can treat even the adults you meet anywhere, and they will remember you. Just like a tip, it goes a long way. We brought US 1.00 bills to tip those who normally don’t get tipped, gardeners, laundry personnel, the coke guy, the pool guy, etc. it was well appreciated. We preferred this to vacationing in Mexico.
