It,s just a public holding Mariott brand with lack of food drinks and service once you pay all inclusive. Only one beer available and that's on tap is Presidente. Buy Patron tequila as it's premium for them. No butter on toast before you're leaving to excursion at 7am. Employees at shore is dancing with young girls and they eat first in corner of bar. Only fry fish, chips, chicken and hamburger on bar. Jacuzzi gaucets are non working. Spoke to social manager Randy too, no outcome.

Sanctuary Cap Cana was amazing. Joan took great care of us in the castle and came and checked on us daily no matter where we were on the resort. The food was amazing, and the service all over was great. There was an abundance of food options, and we were able to find a spot wherever we went without issues of overcrowding. If you are going to Punta Cana, this is the place to stay. Only downside was the waterfall in the castle was being worked on and we had a minor issue with the water not getting very hot in our room, but I’d still give it a 5/5 rating even with those small issues.

Awesome! All of the staff was great and professional. The female at the disco was the only staff member who was not the best. She aggressively looked at me after I went to the DJ to write a song to play. Everybody else was excellent, and they all made our stay the best! Thank You!

Sanctuary exceeded my expectations. It is much nicer than the pics imo. The property was beautifully landscaped, interiors are gorgeous and clean, staff was great. The food was good— the Wok Asian restaurant was the best we ate at, surprisingly good food and the nicest ambiance. The buffet was our favorite breakfast and lunch option. Tons of options and all pretty well prepared. The staff were the friendliest here also. The grounds are full of great spots to sit and look at the ocean or the beautiful terraced property itself. Pools are great, and the beach is much better than it appears in these pics. It’s not huge but it’s big enough and the water is that beautiful Caribbean blue. I would highly recommend this place if you’re considering it

We stay in a villa near the beach. The villa need a little touch up but was very convenient. And extremely clean . Our buttler Joan was a delightful person and very helpful making arrangements for us with reservations on different restaurant in last minute. Food is exquisite specialy the italian restaurant. The asian restaurant was beautiful but not very impressed with the foods. Our waiter was amazing. A little disappointed with our champagne . I order a tattinger rose . He was not chilled at the right temperature. We give the left over to the waiter. Great pools. And staffs very attentive. We will go back for sure.

This was an excellent stay for vacation where I was able to spend quality down time to replenish and rejuvenate. The staff were incredibly nice and respectful. I would have liked to see a little more eating out options as I felt that it was limited with a certain number of restaurants as we were told that this was an All Inclusive restaurant. I did enjoy the performances, beach and service overall!

The property is beautiful and very well kept. The food wasn't spectacular but ok for an all inclusive. The staff was very nice but sometimes hard to communicate with. Our flight returning home was delayed 3 hours but they gave us the option of keeping our room - $40/hour or just hanging out and having access to all the facilities-which is what we did. We went on one excursion - that I arranged myself- and the surrounding areas seemed kind of sketchy.
