Grand Sirenis Punta Cana: 11 Tips to Know Before You Go

[@LCam-db1jr]

Great review we went in October 2023, and the food was 2 out of 10 😅but were Caribbean so we require a lot of seasoning and well done food the rooms, grounds and pool were great tho 😊 very budget friendly 👍🏾

[@Hanna-vd3fo]

Thank you so much this was so helpful for me Especially this spa that is great news to know

[@jessicahobin]

Thanks for the helpful video! Some very helpful tips :) Did you spend any time on the beach? Do they allow people to solicit at the beach? That is one thing I remember about DR, and made me avoid the beach entirely my last time there.

[@avnihasa2913]

The best descriptions, thank you.

[@WendyPollock-ur4yi]

Thank you so much for all the tips

[@MsMeli69]

Great tips! Thanks for posting however you didn't mention anything about the water park.

[@rickyrivera7178]

Nice reaction…I was there in June and was good overall in general. Some “negatives” were that i also had water leak in the bathroom from the ceiling and asked to be changed to another room, it was in building 22. And yes avoid Route 66. Great service from Ramon in the beach/pool area

[@pretty_pyg]

Thanks for the tips Ricky. Yes, they really need to do something about the water leaks. I think if they fixed up all the rooms just a bit more, the resort could really elevate itself!

[@Oxisery]

Do you know what was so bad about Route 66?

[@rickyrivera7178]

@@Oxisery ribs was bad and i was pumped for a chocolate milkshake and wasn’t drinkable… t bone was ok

[@Oxisery]

@@rickyrivera7178 Oh alright, thanks. Also do you know if its true that you cant use the tap water for brushing your teeth? I knew that the water isnt the cleanest but I never would’ve thought that you can get sick without even consuming the water.

[@rickyrivera7178]

@@Oxisery i think is a little exagerated, but anyway you will have bottled water in the room and can use it for brushing your teeth

[@Tanyathecoolest]

Thank you! We are going in Sep !

[@pretty_pyg]

Thanks for watching and hope these tips were helpful. Enjoy your trip!

Hi there, thanks for your review of this resort. I’m considering booking this for my family in a couple of weeks Can I ask how is the beach there ? Seaweed?

[@Borgsy1]

Do you have any comments on the waterpark? Positive and/or negative please.

[@pretty_pyg]

Water park was about a 6 out of 10. Good size and activities for younger (2-10) kids and convenient since it's in the resort. Downsides were that it was on the older side with some jagged (literally) edges that scratched some of the bigger members of my family and the food was pretty bland compared to the rest of the resort. The kids loved it though and had a wonderful time

[@angeladay5593]

Are there any slushy drinks like pina coladas?

[@DW-lw8kf]

What made it a 3 star for you?

[@pretty_pyg]

Thanks for watching! Cleanliness, room upkeep and friendliness of the staff were the 3 areas that brought it down to a 3-star. I just stayed at 1 Hotel South Beach in Miami, which is a true 5-star and the difference is that thought and effort has been put into every surface, every interaction and every moment. Every surface is clean and has been beautifully designed. The staff could not be friendlier and more committed to making guests feel welcome and special. That feeling and attention to care just wasn't there at Grand Sirenus BUT there is obviously a big price difference. Grand Sirenus is a great value for the price!

Is the transportation safe ?

[@CaroleBourgoin]

Was this resort renovated??? How’s everything

[@sharon5129]

It was recommended to not use the tap water to brush your teeth. What about the ice in beverages?

[@divine5345]

Would you say its a large complex? As in lots of walking to and from rooms, to beach, to waterpark

[@pretty_pyg]

Yes, probably an 8-min walk from the furthest room to the pool and maybe 11 mins to the beach. The coffee shop is probably a 5-min walk from the lobby and the water park is around a 10-min walk from the lobby. Thank you for watching and hope this helps!

[@MrHotstepper89]

Going to the Dominican Republic for the past 3 years and had no issues with brushing teeth with tap water, it’s not Mexico ffs 🤣🤣

[@SteveG-g3i]

Bring lots of extra strength pepto bismol so you can make it though an entire super duper animation show without running to the restroom. Otherwise, due to the overcooked, poorly prepared, and unsafely maintained food, you will need to run to the restroom and miss out on the super duper animation. If you need to run to the restroom, you can run to the public restrooms on the resort that feel and smell like a sewer line exploded in a sauna. ... or you can run to the toilet in your room that may or may not flush, which is line with the room AC that may or may not work, which matches well with the dirty and moldy décor of your room. Enjoy!

[@divine5345]

Water park???

[@pretty_pyg]

Yes there is a water park right on the property

[@PaulMatthews-h6p]

Our rooms were run down and all of AC, fridge, and toilet did not work well. Until we discovered the issue, we were all sleeping on beds with mattress covers with body fuild stains from guests who stayed in room before us. The food is poorly prepared, often undercooked, and not maintained at proper temperature. One of our group came home with salmonella. DO NOT IGNORE THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS! #GrandSirenisPuntaCana we will never go back!

[@MaryPatricia-r7p]

Group of adults. Multiple rooms. A few days in we found mattress covers with stains from guests who stayed in the rooms before us. SO GROSS! This was in addition to the weak AC, poorly operating fridge, and toilets that don't flush. The bath towel shortage is a real issue. The manager on duty … who is the same person who posts the sad canned resort responses on expedia … tried to explain how difficult is was to provide clean bath towels to every guest in every room every day! How pathetic! Everything is a long wait due to understaffing, which seems to make the employees miserable. Outside of the a restaurant or two, the food is just awful. Many people ill as a result. This resort is being run by incompetent frauds. They need to fire current management, bulldozer everything … maybe sparing the coffee shop and food truck … to the ground, and start all over! Do not ignore the negative reviews! DO NO GO TO GRAND SIRENIS PUNTA CANA!!!

[@ConP-o9n]

Worst vacation ever! Resort management is very poor at what they do. Bath towels .. just as an example ... are a shortage. We were left with no bath towels multiple days. We would call and message resort and concierge frequently. Always told '20 minutes'. On our last night towels were delivered at 9pm after going to the lobby and complaining for an hour to 3 or 4 different resort people. Rooms are run down, dirty, and moldy. AC does not work well. Toilets clog frequently. Furniture and fixtures are broken. We found all mattress covers soiled with body fluid from whoever stayed in the rooms before us. So gross! Our supposed fold up bed was broken and beat up pieces of what was once a fold up bed. The mattress was not even a fold up mattress. Some restaurants ok. Food at BBQs is too rare. Buffets are smelly and food sits out way too long. Family member ended up needing to be treated with a strong antibiotic due to stomach illness contracted at the resort. Understaffed. Long lines and waits. Pool bar is a crowded mob scene. Public restrooms on the resort feel and smell like a sewer line opened up in a sauna. Do yourself a favor and find a different resort!

[@christineegirgis9914]

They should shut down this disgusting hotel. The worst hotel ever don't waste your money terrible service disgusting food rude staff, dirty rooms, and bugs in the room. The buffet is terrible and the Italian restaurant is terrible and the Brazilian is terrible as well. only the Mediterranean restaurant is good and the steak house restaurant Don't recommend it, don't waste your money for a disgusting hotel. Don't believe fake reviews To be honest Only the show at night is good and the coffee shop and the food truck hotdogs and burger is good too nothing else. Most of the guests are complaining from the rude staff and terrible food and service and they never come back again. Don't GO There! Be aware they try to make u member to their club its scam don't do it .

[@carlitosmoctezumalopez2266]

Seriously??

[@MaryPatricia-r7p]

Seriously …. DO NOT IGNORE THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS! The rooms are old, beat up, and moldy. Aside for a restaurant or two being ok, not great, the food service is awful. Buffets smells and the food sits out forever. Crowded. Understaffed. Shame on the owners and management!

[@agaemar]

6 out of ten is horrible for food!

[@pretty_pyg]

Thank you for watching! I want to be fair to the resort so I want to stress that the food was definitely better than other all-inclusives I've stayed at. It's not easy to cook for that many people! But yes, if you go there expecting really good food, you might be disappointed. I think for the price and value, it's decent
