Punta Cana, Dominican Republic – Define Your Travel

Punta Cana, Dominican Republic – Visa Sol Punta Cana Beach Resort & Spa – May 4-10, 2019

On Tuesday, April 30, 2019, my mom and I decided to leave Saturday, May 4 for Punta Cana! It was a great deal! Happy birthday to me!

A few more minutes before we land in the Dominican Republic!

Arm band must be worn throughout your stay in order to advantage of all of the dining and drink options.

The first thing I noticed was the view from the balcony. Our reservation was for a partial ocean view. They upgraded us to a full ocean view!!

There were no doubles available when we checked in. My mom and I shared the bed for 2 nights.

The room was always cleaned very well.

Rather spacious room. Enough room for us to move around without bumping into each other.

Not sure what this space is for

Ample closet and shelf space and it is beautiful!

There is a mini fridge in each room.

You also have a coffee maker. Complimentary bottled water is supplied throughout your stay. Call the front desk when you run out. You are warned to not drink the water. Do not use the water to brush your teeth or rinse your mouth out. ALWAYS use the bottled water.

Your room key must be placed in this slot when entering the room. Your lights and air conditioning will not operate without it.

This is a mobile router. The WI-FI only works in the entertainment/stage area on the property, which is towards the front of the property. The router is available for use throughout your stay. It fits well in a pocket or purse. I carried it with me throughout the property and will shopping.

Located next to the entertainment/stage area.

Rhinoceros Iguana. There are several fenced in on the property.

Mojito. This was my drink of choice the duration of the trip.

Peacocks are free to roam throughout the property. They can be very loud!

Buffet without outdoor seating

Buffet. The peacocks enter during the dining hours walking around waiting for someone to feed them.

There are a few shops on the property. Prices are lower at stores off the property. However, if you forget to buy souvenirs while out, you have a place to shop!

Cigar Lounge, Rum & Coffee

This beautiful fountain was located close to our room. Our room was on the 2nd floor. We heard the water throughout the day and night.

The peacock most likely felt threatened. There was a child that kept trying to grab it. The parents watched as the child chased the peacock. Eventually, a staff member stepped between the child and the peacock.

Beautiful peacock

We were moved to a room with 2 double beds. Again, a beautiful ocean view!

I did not get photos of the other bathroom. They are the same.

Spacious shower. However, I am not a fan of the open showers. Water was always on the floor outside the shower.

More views from the balcony

Construction in the lobby area

Coco Bongo! I had a great time. Non-stop entertainment throughout the night! I recommend purchasing a VIP ticket. You are guaranteed a chair plus receive premium alcohol. The alcohol is included with your entry.

Beautiful scenery throughout the property

Another pool. There are 3 separate pools. 1 is for those that love to party. The other are peaceful.

The beach is beautiful. There is a party side along with a quiet side.

We tried a different specialty restaurant, Gourmet Restaurant. We should have stayed with the hibachi grill!

I had to purchase some Mamajuana to take home with me!
