Enjoyed the multiple dining options for restaurants; Mexican, American BBQ, Italian, French (romantic dining) Japanese & Steakhouse. Also had cafe for coffees and an ice cream shop. Also they had a sports bar along with the regular buffet. Beach was good in the sense not a lot of seaweed and tons of beach to walk along; however ,disappointed with the limited palapas for shade on the beach. Either get up at 6am to reserve one or go without shade for the day at the beach which could be dangerous with the intense sun all day long, and no escape.

Overall was a great property for both adults and children with nice entertainment! Food was excellent! The bed mattresses need to be upgraded to be as for a hotel 3 to 5 stars; they were very uncomfortable and I did not sleep well! The bed rails needs to be upgraded as they are terrible looking.

The property was very clean and the majority of the staff were very friendly and very helpful, the beach area was very nice with very little seaweed. The pools were huge and conveniently located in the two swim bars were really good. We enjoyed all of the different dining options. The one thing we did not like was the casino. It seemed like a scam but other than that, we would definitely go back.

Not every worker there gives you nice service i was in DR for the first time i was clueless regarding how everything works and i have two girls following me around i thought they were the ones taking care of me… i had issues with my room being dirty (pillows robes ) i found “insects” and i was never offered a new room i didnt know i have to let the butler know because this whole time i thought the girls that followed me around were the ones taking care of everything and i told them the issues (in the morning) about my room and they never fix it… because i got back to the hotel like around 11 and went to the front desk and asked for new pillows because the left the dirty ones at that time jose garcia was the one that i let him know and my pillows and new blanket never came no one help the next morning came down furious at told the concierge and i found out he was the one that was in charge of my bld i didnt know that since the girls told they were there for me… he did send room service immediately and they cleaned it but i was still not a full satisfied with the service that i was provided and promised (before i spoke to my concierge )

Antonio Gomez is hands down one of the best bartenders we’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting! During our stay at Ocean Blue and Sand Punta Cana, Antonio went above and beyond to make our vacation truly unforgettable. Not only was he incredibly skilled at making amazing drinks, but his friendly and attentive service made us feel like VIPs the entire time. He always had a warm smile, remembered our preferences, and went out of his way to ensure we were happy and satisfied. Antonio truly embodies exceptional hospitality, and we are so grateful for his outstanding service. Ocean Blue and Sand is lucky to have someone like Antonio on their team, and we hope they continue hiring more amazing people like him. Thanks to Antonio, our stay felt like a dream vacation. Highly recommend visiting and letting Antonio take care of you at the bar!

I loved the steak house and the quick access to the beach. What I don’t like was the pool and the Jacuzzi were ice cold and I mean to the point where my daughter loved the island sick. Also, there aren’t enough activities for me at this resort. Everything is centered around the pool and unfortunately, the pool is never warm. We also had a hard time getting dinner reservations, even though we had the concierge service. That was extremely frustrating. I have stayed at the resort in Jamaica that is owned by the same hotel brand and the experience was completely different
