The resort is just as beautiful as the photos. The room was clean, well designed with amazing interior design. I really liked to kitchenette, separate dining and living space. The balcony overlooking the palm tree tops was a great place to drink morning coffee. The outdoor jacquzzi tub was a nice perk. The shuttle was always readily available to take you to the beach, gift shop, or front gate. Restaurants though limited had a great menu, was pretty tasty and all were beautifully designed. The spa was also beautiful and staff great. On the whole, I enjoyed the food and the selection. My partner, whose stomach is a little more sensitive, had some trouble with dining. Some things that could use tweaking: 1. A designated hotel check-in like most hotels. After being harassed at the airport by taxi services, our feet touched hotel grounds and immediately we were separated from our luggage and brought to sit on a couch to await staff assistance. It all just felt slightly shady as we were not accustomed to this type of check in. 2. Better room service: we ordered breakfast and waited almost two hours. Then we ordered dessert one night and waited over 1.5h, called and waited about an hour more before canceling. 3. Buffet room temperature was very warm and made me reluctant to try anything raw as it seemed optimal temp for bacterial growth. Would I book it again? Most definitely.

Todo es A1 desde el staff, las instalaciones, la paz que hay en el hotel, la amabilidad y disposición. Giovana, Rosa, Rafa y Erickson en el área de checkin y checkout son un amor! Anthony en la cocina y Francesco que nos trataron como reinas en los desayunos. Eddy que nos atendía en el beach club y sobre todo Giovanny con sus clases de artesanías que fue todo un éxito, nos encantó! Sin duda nos volveríamos a hospedar en ese hotel sin pensarlo.

Loved the resort! I came for a birthday trip and had such an amazing time. The service, and especially Raphy, made my trip so accommodating and relaxing. Only feedback I have is to work on the food selection and food overall.

Zel Punta Cana was an incredible resort. The rooms were truly five-star—clean, modern, and beautifully designed. The service was just as good. While not all staff speak English, they’re kind, patient, and happy to let you practice Spanish. It was fun to brush up on mine! Service-wise, everything was top-notch. We loved the beach club, the hibachi restaurant, and every bar. Activities were fun and easy to join, with a quick ride to a gorgeous beach. We actually preferred the pool, but the beach club was a great option. Chairs were always available, and staff helped with excursions and kept vendors away. Everyone made us feel like family. The spa was beautiful, but my deep tissue massage included massage guns, which I didn’t love. Still, the space was relaxing and worth a visit. My biggest feedback is on the food. The buffet needs serious improvement—items weren’t always fresh or at the right temp. We stuck to the omelet bar for breakfast and mostly avoided the buffet otherwise. The restaurants were great but could use more variety and less upselling. Communication was a little inconsistent. It’d be helpful if concierges shared a daily activity list via WhatsApp along with dinner reservations. Still, we had a wonderful time overall! I would give it an eight out of 10

Zel is advertised to be a calming tranquil environment for relaxation. However, the DJs play music (explicit rap at times) loudly throughout the afternoon heard all around the resort. Speakers are all around the resort. Usually not oppose to loud music if confined to certain areas or certain times of the day during foam parties etc. It was loud the entire time to the point you can't concentrate or read by the pool. At one point it was difficult to have a conversation. There were other guests who complained as well. Management did speak to us but problem still persisted. It may not seem loud when you are walking around the resort but if you relax by the pool all day, it wears you out. Otherwise everything was A Ok.
