    Beautiful Location and Incredible Staff. 100% recommend.

    The Island was beautiful and the facilities were incredible. By far the best thing was the staff. Whether you were in a restaurant, or at the beach, every member of staff was incredibly friendly and wanted to help however they could. Even the gardeners and groundskeepers would stop what they were doing to say hello. Kayaks and paddle boards are available at the beach to take out on the water, and a range of activities are put on throughout the day, from yoga, to bracelet making, to sip and paint. Tours are also available to the mainland and we would recommend doing one, as it shows you more of the true culture of the Dominican Republic, because the area surrounding the resort is not super touristy. In conclusion, I can’t recommend this place enough!

    Amazing customer service, great variety of restaurants and all kind of activities for everyone!

    Our stay at the hotel was an absolute surprise, specially for all the staff that are always smiling and trying to make your day memorable! A special thank you to Jefris that is a lovely person with great energy and makes you feel the only guest he is receiving on the day. The resort is absolutely stunning, with a lot of nature and a great care of the place, amazing sustentability projects and the minimum waste as possible!! Restaurants are an experience, unique menus, different experiences that offer a variety that you could never imagine. And there are so many activities planned during the day, for active people or for someone looking for nature interaction! You wanna participate in all of them as they always have something to learn,do, get to know more and it is fun!

    Best all inclusive ever

    Have you ever dreamed of being on a secluded tropical island? Well if you have this place is for you! From the time we reached check in for boat ride until we left we were treated like royalty. Unfortunately I was sick the whole week and they went out of their way to accommodate my needs. Everyone and everything was awesome. The food was outstanding even though I couldn’t really enjoy. My husband got to enjoy it all. The beach was beautiful. We even had a service button at the beach. Who does that?? There is a lot of walking if you choose or there is golf cart service available. All the employees were so kind and friendly. I can’t remember a lot of names but here are just a few. Rosa at the front was wonderful and helpful. Our ambassador Eddyl and a sweet guy named Virgilio were great. They really worried about me and tried to help in anyway they could. So if you’re looking for someplace beautiful, quiet, and very accommodating then you should visit here. If you want to party probably not. They have unique things to do. All in all best place we’ve ever been. Thank you Cayo Levantado Resort for everything.

    5 STARS AND BEYOND

    This hotel is the real deal. Run, Swim, Paddleboard, save your pennies ( a lot of them) to experience the best 5 Star experience in Dominican Republic. We live here( work in tourism) and have been to close to 50 hotels since 2020 and including all the major ones you know and I never expected to receive the level of service we had here. It was very much St Regis/Four Season discreet yet thorough. To begin, the lounge at the Pier. Just beautiful and wonderful service. The quick boat ride over ( on safe and easily accessible catamaran) and golf cart ride to the lobby where your concierge greats you. We had Mariela and Emma who took care of all. As the one always planning, I was so happy to have someone else be in charge of me . We were on beach by 11:30AM where we stayed til 4ish having the first of many great meals and some fine Cava in the pool. Speaking of alcohol, this hotel has it all. Nothing off label from Grey Goose to Don Julio, it is included The Spa. The Cadillac of massage Tables. My husband is 6.4 and 300 pounds and lives in constant fear of breaking massage tables . His masseuse was strong enough to really get him relaxed especially since he wasn't worried about the table. Meanwhile, a few rooms over, I had equally relaxing combo of water treatments and massage followed by workout in their start of art gym The dinners: Lobster tails/ Salmon/ Steaks/Sushi all of them outstanding, Breakfast: Since was Low Season, there was only a la carte but the menu was expansive and basically customizable. I have Wheat Gluten allergies and my husband on Renal diet and all of our dietary needs were met. And, saving the best for last. Emmanuella @management. She was amazing, above and beyond. We have had many concierges at many hotels, including one for our wedding who have not been as professional yet personal and most importantly Genuine. What the Cayo Levantado Resort has managed to do it in country where service often feels fake and contrived is create experience that is natural not only in physical surroundings but in interaction.. not an easy task here
