East Coast, Dominican Republic hotel rooms at the Independent

"Pool was enjoyable, never did the hottub"

"Amazing resort and people. This was my 5th time staying at a majestic resort in Punta Cana. The hotel staff was amazing. They upgraded my room to a beautiful suite with a rooftop outside jucuzzi. The food option is top tier and their entertain is top tier as well. I can’t say a single negative thing about this resort. I absolutely love them and everything about it. "

"Clean, friendly staff, beautiful"

"Absolutely amazing staff and experience! Will definitely be back!"

"Great Service"

"This resort is extremely beautiful- such a relaxing place to spend a few days and just unwind. The food is great at all the restaurants. The rooms are nice and upgraded. Staff is all very friendly. I would definitely get the excellence club rooms if possible. They come with nice benefits such as private beach and even a private restaurant. If I had to say one thing I found negative, I’d say it was the people with the animals (monkey, lizard, parrots) who come and bother you when you’re trying to lay out on the beach. This may not be the resort’s fault per se, but it was frustrating that every day some person came up to pester me about taking pictures with animals (one day the guy actually put the lizard on my leg and wouldn’t remove it until I got kinda nasty with him) When we are enjoying the beach, the last thing we want is someone coming up and putting animals on us or trying to get us to pay for pictures.

"Clean room, great entertainment and good food. "
