Noobie in need of help......Dreams Punta Cana or Dreams Palm Beach?

LonaJ · December 18, 2011

Hello Everyone!

My name is Lona and I'm new to the site. I'm planning a wedding in Punta Cana on Oct 20, 2012 and I just can't decide which Dreams resort to go with. They both look gorgeous online and price wise they are both affordable for my guest, however I have read some bad reviews on Dreams Punta Cana and some great reviews on Dreams Palm Beach. However it looks like Dreams Punta Cana has the better food options for the all inclusive. Please share your thoughts or experiences with either resort. Thanks in advance!

Hi Lona

Congratulations and happy planning. I'd go with Dreams Palm Beach. It's also a newer resort, with better reviews. There is also a facebook group called Dream Palm Beach Brides. Join the group and you'll get a wealth of information, pictures and ideas!

OMG! You're my 'bride twin'. LOL We are getting married October 20th at Dreams Palm Beach!!! Let me tell you, it is def a better choice. I agonized over the 2 for 4 weeks before going with Palm Beach. It is closer to the airport, is newer and has some recent renovations and is a bit smaller so easier to keep up with guests. As far as restaurants go, they still have a good variety and if you're doing a welcome/rehearsal dinner and having reception you've already taken up 2 days of dinner so anymore than 4-5 options will be too many (and there's always room service).
