we booked back when it was still margaritaville and not dreams. when we arrived, we were greeted by kind people and that stayed the same throughout the visit. everyone was so nice and always said hello. a few issues we had (very small, not a big deal): our tv did not work which was fine since we didn’t stay in the room long but it would’ve been nice to watch before bed; we were under the impression when booking that it was adults only, but there were many kids around. it didn’t ruin our trip but we had gone with the idea it would be adults only. some of the restaurants are only open a few days of the week, so we never got to try the Caribbean place which my boyfriend really wanted to try. aside from all that, the food was good, everything was clean. our butler was soooo kind and helpful. the beach right outside the resort is rocky so we didn’t get to swim in it much but we just walked a bit and found a better swim area. again, not a big deal for us. overall, it was a great stay and we would definitely recommend to others & come back as well!

No accessible beach within the resort, Machine work braking up rocks caused the area with cabanas and chairs unusable. The resort is going through a transition from Margaritaville to Dreams which showed with the staff not being trained. I sent several emails only because they keep transferring the complaint but finally after being close to being called a liar because we were told by the front desk that no changes from Margaritaville to Dreams would take till place 6/25. Which wasn’t the case. We were also told we should have read the review about the beach… So here your warning. It’s in transition and you should past this resort by till the transition is complete probably 2026/27 it’s no dream, although the layout and resort is beautiful the staff and food were inconstant.

Everything and everyone there was exceptional! ESPECIALLY our Butler Modesto! When we arrived to the Resort we found out that The name of the property had been changed to Dreams Cap Cana… which was fine, then we found out we had been UPGRADED to Preferred Guests that was the icing on our Anniversary CAKE! EVERYTHING from there was TOP TIER! This was the BEST Anniversary vacation to date! The Staff was EVERYTHING to ask for during your vacation. We have NOT 1 thing bad to say about Dreams Cap Cana! We hope to visit again soon in the near future and will request Modesto as out Butler again 20 out of 10!!!

Dreams Cap Cana More like a 3*, definitely not 4 or 5. My observations: Staff - Servers and bartenders very nice, however you will be constantly solicited by staff aggressively selling excursions, upgraded food and alcohol, spa services, and vacation club. While sitting by the pool, we were approached by someone every 30 mins which got quite annoying after the first day. You will also be offered a resort credit to sit through a vacation club presentation. Don’t fall for it! Our room also had concierge service, but I really don’t know what their function is, as no reservations are required for dining. Rooms - Our room was basic, but had a nice ocean-view balcony and an upscale bathroom with soaker tub and rain shower. All sounds great except that tub and shower were exposed to the rest of the room which could make getting washed a little awkward depending on who you are sharing a room with. You will have zero privacy. At least the toilet was in a separate water closet. If your room is in the same building as the main bar as ours was, be prepared to not get to sleep until after midnight as the nightly entertainment is outside in front of the bar. Entertainment starts at 8pm and moves inside to the sports bar/night club around midnight. Food - Food was just ok, more like 3 star than 5. Buffet had lots of options so we always ate well, especially at breakfast. Other restaurants were hit and miss. Entertainment - Typical resort singing/dancing, ok but nothing memorable.

Review of Dreams Cana Resort (March 6 - March 10) I recently had the pleasure of staying at Dreams Cana Resort from March 6 to March 10, and overall, it was a beautiful experience. Upon arrival, the resort welcomed us with open arms, creating an inviting atmosphere that set the tone for our stay. The food was undoubtedly one of the highlights of our trip. Every meal was delicious, offering a variety of options that catered to different tastes. I truly appreciated the quality of the dining experience, which contributed to the overall enjoyment of our visit. What stood out the most was the staff. Every employee we encountered was respectful, friendly, and genuinely eager to ensure we had an outstanding stay. Their warm hospitality made us feel right at home. However, I must mention that the entertainment aspect of the resort left something to be desired. The entertainment options were not very engaging, and I noticed that the clientele skewed towards an older demographic. The nightclub often felt empty, and the sports bar rarely had patrons, which was a bit disheartening. If you're looking for lively nightlife or dynamic entertainment, this might not be the place for you. That said, if your goal is relaxation, Dreams Cana Resort is perfect. The serene environment is ideal for unwinding and enjoying some peace and quiet. Overall, I would give my stay a solid five stars. The stunning resort, delicious food, and exceptional staff made for a memorable getaway.

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of staying at Dreams Cap Cana Resort, and I can confidently say it was an outstanding experience.The staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was nothing short of perfect, and their hospitality truly made all the difference. A special mention must go to Victor and Yoenfry, two exceptional staff members who made our time at the Preferred Pool unforgettable. Their attentiveness, dedication, and personal touch were remarkable, as they consistently went out of their way to ensure we felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout our stay. Their service was truly top-notch, and they undoubtedly played a key role in making our vacation so enjoyable. Dreams Cap Cana is lucky to have such outstanding team members, and I hope they are recognized for their incredible efforts. They certainly deserve more than just five stars! While the beach at the resort is currently a bit rocky, the management is actively working to improve it by breaking up the rocks and making the area more usable. I’m confident the beach will be just as beautiful as the rest of the property, making for an even more perfect vacation destination. Overall, I would highly recommend Dreams Cap Cana Resort to anyone looking for a relaxing, luxurious getaway with top-tier service. Whether you’re enjoying the pool, dining at the restaurants, or relaxing in your room, the staff and the property itself ensure a wonderful experience.
