Punta Cana(DR) Hotel Occidental Flamenco

We had a wonderful experience at the Occidental Flamenco Bavaro Resort in Punta Cana (Dominican Republic). Beautiful setting, fantastic accommodation, nice staff and plenty of activities and, to top it all, very good food.

We rate it a 10 over 10. And at very affordable prices!!

We stayed at their Miguel Angel Club, which is a private area, within the resort, with more exclusive accommodation, a private pool and jacuzzi and a private restaurant with personalized attention. They have a total of 20 rooms in this restricted area. ... (more)

Were there February 22-March 1. The staff was nice. Fun was all day long. THe frozen drinks were not frozen. Everything about the place was great,pool,beach,rooms,check in and check out.Food stinks. 10 of us somehow had a stomach thing.We ate in the Italian resturant and they served us something completely different than what was on the menu, it was terrible.Bring pretzels,suntan lotion, $1 bills,film, snacks expensive , bring books or magazines Be careful with the girl that handles the reservations for day trips apparently, she and the tours guides do not have the same information. Please have everythingin writing.You must have a towel receipt to check out of the hotel. Golf great. Tell guest services UP FRONT that you want to pay by credit card. DO NOT DRINK THE WATER.Be careful Lots of funny business with the exchange rate.

We leave for the Occidental in less than 2 weeks; thanks for your comments and pictures that assure us we picked the right place!

If you don't mind us asking, how much more was it to stay in Club Miguel Angel? Did you book upon arrival?

Looks Good!
I admit when my fiance said "we're going to the Dominican Republic" I kinda smiled and said "oh-ok". His parents are paying for it so who am i to argue? But I'll admit now, after looking at all these pictures and seeing how beautiful it is, I AM PSYCHED! I can not WAIT to go! Thanks for the informative pix, great website! And THANK YOU Terrie for finding this awesome place!
