Review of Majestic Elegance (non-wedding) with pictures

[Melwhip]

Wow, looks beautiful!!! I've been to the Majestic, it looks very similiar from the pics. Although, I wish Majestic had an Italian restaurant, yum!!!

What is the deal with drinks... do you have to pay for some and some are free? The bottle of wine you orderd you realized it was extra cost? I just heard that all drinks at rest were a charge and that confuses me...........

Sorry to confuse you! The house wine is free and we were offered that. I really like wine but didn't care so much for the house wine. We knew that there was an additional charge for chosing one off the wine list and how much it was going to be as the prices were listed beside each wine.

We did not pay for anything else we drank last week, either at the bars or in the restaurants.

OK thanks for clarifying... Someone else had mentions that some drinks you had to pay and then other said no... so just making sure...

I'm really glad to read all the great review. My fiance and I are considering the resort for our wedding but have never been there. My parents have been to the resort a few times and have said it is one of the best in punta cana for its price and value. Has anyone seen what the resort photographer/videographer are like?

I am in almost the same situation you are. As my user name says I was a mexico beach bride but my fiance and I looked at several wedding packages for resorts in mexico and none have them really gave you much but charged you alot of money. I am really loving the Majestic and I am meeting with my travel agent Saturday to discuss. I will post the packages once I meet with her, however I did see a post on here somewhere with previous packages. I think a civil ceremony was $1500/$1750 and a non-legal symbolic ceremony was $1250. We are looking at a non-legal just because it is alot less hassel. I also like the Majestic because after your ceremony you get a cocktail hour and you can have a reservation for your entire group at the steak or seafood restaurant which saves $$$. But you can also pay extra and do a more private reception. I like all these options!

really?? Well I was going to do it at the Grand Sunset Princess Resort in Riviera Maya...its gorgeous! Ive been looking and the Majestic reminds me of it...I really like it....Keep me posted and let me know what prices your travel agent quotes....If I get any info I will do the same.........Thanks!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Christina,
I am also from New York and I am planning to get married at the Majestic in February 2010....Have you gotten any rates for your guests for the resort? Did you use a travel agent from New York? I know you must be so excited because your day is getting so much closer!!! How far have you gotten with your planning with the Majestic??
