First of all, to start off with a positive, the property from the outside is beautiful and is very tranquil. My girlfriend and I decided to take a mini vacation and thought this hotel would exceed our expectations. Before the trip, you get messaged by an electronic concierge whom is off site and appears to be sketch. We did not see more than two staff members on the property, whom were not very helpful. They always had an attitude and always contacted the off site concierge to address concerns which easily could be taken care of then and there. The security guard in the front of the hotel was rude and provoked a very minute issue with us, instead of addressing it in a professional manner. Upon us getting there on our first night, the room given to us was incorrect and the staff member at the office told us it was our fault when clearly it was not. The off site concierge contacted us and told us they would upgrade us but we still had to pay a fee. Even though it was an error on their part. The rooms would not be cleaned on a daily basis. It wasn’t until the last day that the off site coordinator asked us if we needed a change of sheets or towels. Even then, it took forever for them to bring us new towels after requested. Also on the last night, we were locked out of our room, had to contact off site concierge so they can contact in house staff to the point where we had to respond to the office to still be blamed on how WE locked ourselves out of the room. I do not recommend.

Our home in Cap Cana

The hotel is great. Specially because it has all the facilities within the room to cook and wash your clothes. We felt at home. The staff are veary nice and the place is beautifull. The only point that needs to be reviewed was that the aprtment had a strong smell of humidity and this caused allergies the first day. After the second day with the A/C and proper ventilation it improved. Additionally the ice machine in the restaurant broke down so there was no place on the roperty to get ice. Other than that it was a great stay.

I didn't like that it was stated that it was close to the beach and the beach was no where near the resort. It stated that there were multiple restaurants and there was only one and it was outside. There were roaches in the room and for the amount we paid, it should have not had roaches. I was very disappointed at the lack of knowledge about places to go around the area and the inability to communicate with the staff because they did not speak English even though they stated that they did. I would not recommend this property to anyone.

False advertising

The Spa, restaurant , and bar are closed and have been for some time. The advertising for this property is false. There is no phone in the room !! you have to use your cell phone to call the front desk. Finally there were cockroaches in the kitchenette ! I think this should be taken off the expedia list.

A Truly Unfortunate Stay

My recent one night stay was a comedy of errors. At first blush, a lovely resort in a beautiful part of Punta Cana. All that follows actually happened: when I checked in I was informed that the restaurant was not open and I would need to take a taxi to a different hotel for any food (even for a cup of coffee in the morning). And trust me when I say this part of Cap Cana is pretty deserted. Once in my room, the toilet wasn't working,and I went to call for repair but the phone had no connecting cord so I had to walk the hundred yards back to the desk to report it. The repairman told me that he couldn't fix it until the morning (he never came prior to my checking out). I tried in vain to change rooms, apparently none available. To add insult to injury, I had no hot water for a shower in the morning, not even warm. Also no internet in the rooms. Lastly, when leaving my second floor room in a heavy rain, a guest walked out of his first floor room to summon the bellman because he had an inch of water flooding the floors throughout his room. I did inform the very nice concierge, who politely offered only that he hopes my next stay will be better. There won't be one; I have never had a worse hotel experience.

Ok

The Hotel is nice, but Cap Cana area has no life, everything is far, the project seems to be dead. This hotel is ok only if you like to play golf, otherwise you should look for other option. The property is new, rooms are nice and big.

Golden Bear Lodge

The Golden Bear Lodge in Cap Cana is a wonderful & comfortable hotel. The location of the hotel is away from the popular & loud hotel zone; Cap Cana is located south of the airport. If you are looking for peace & quite, this is the place to go. Cap Cana is a private area. Golden Bear is not on the beach; golf resort. You will take the hotel shuttle to get to Juanillo Beach (5 minutes) which is beautiful and relaxing. You will need to take a shuttle to get to the marina and the other hotels and restaurants within the complex.

Nice property but not for every one.

The Golden Bear Lodge is a nice hotel for a long or short stay. A little quiet for those looking for night life. The facilities are well kept and the employees are very professional. The only two things that need improvement are the bathrooms. The shower drainage is pretty much clogged. I have seen that in different rooms at the hotel ( have stayed at the GBL three times already), therefore I am positive that all rooms have the same problem. Breakfast is good but they do not keep up with the food. I was told that the kitchen is subcontracted to another company. Besides that the Golden Bear is a nice property.

Pleasant stay at the Golden Bear Lodge in Cap Cana

My wife and I just returned from a very pleasant week long stay in February, 2012, at the Golden Bear Lodge in Cap Cana. Our unit was very spacious, clean, and exceptionally well decorated. Even though our reservation indicated that breakfast was not included, we were informed at check-in that a buffet breakfast was included in the room rate. The staff was eager to please. On several occasions when the shuttle running among various locations at Cap Cana was running slowly, the staff volunteered to take us by golf cart to the golf course and the beach club. Nearby Punta Espada Golf Club is exceptional in every respect. We also used the nearby beautiful Caleton Beach Club where for a small daily fee you can enjoy the picturesque beach with chaise lounges, towels, fruit punch, and a daily skewer with fresh fruit.
