Re: Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
we stayed at Secrets, all inclusive couples only. It was very nice, we didn't care too much for the food but that's everyone's personal preference. It was clean, and gorgeous.
It was 3K for 7 nights, with airfare for both of us. can't beat it! we went in June 04.

Re: Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
I just got back on Sunday from one week at secrets excellence. I got my flights using my AA miles. The hotel for two people including insurance was 1600. My travel agent found a great deal. I had a great time - met a couple from Brooklyn that we are very close with now and got a great tan.
I would say this is a good place for a vacation not soo good for honeymooners - heard a lot of complaints from people we met. Also the car ride from the airport to the hotel is about 90 mins.

You can't go wrong with any of these hotels. I've heard they're all great.

Re: Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
My coworker actually went to punta cana for her honeymoon. They stayed at Secrets and she said it was a excellent choice. She only paid about $1400 for 2 people for a week but that might be because she went in October which I think it was hurricane season ( I could be wrong though).
So good luck hunting!!!

Re: Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
A friend loved secrets, the only thing that she didn't like was that you really have to stay on the resort...
