@SunnySouthVacations Thanks for sharing these videos and taking the time to respond. I hope your channel grows and you get to explore many more resorts and destinations. I've been to a few places in the past so I'm just looking forward to getting away from the grind of work and relaxing with my wife in a new setting. I think a resort offers escape and a taste of paradise. Every experience during our stay should be perfect and we should be left wanting more. That leads to repeat customers and great reviews to entice others. If we get that, we will be walking billboards to all we meet of how great the place was. What did you like most about your stay?

@@JahBlessd if my math is correct you likely checked into Secrets Tides today. Would love to hear your first impressions. Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed both the resort and room tour. My favourite part? Too many to list but I'll start with the beach, it was a fantastic stretch of beach. The pools are massive and provide lots of room for everyone to enjoy while not feeling staked on top of one another. That said, it was the service provided that makes this resort so fantastic. The team at the resort are beyond committed to making sure you have the best vacation ever. I can't wait to hear all about your vacation.

Hey @christinad1651 , thank you for stopping by the channel and for watching my recent video tour of the amazing Secrets Tides. I always tell my clients that if they don't intend to leave the resort than the destination really shouldn't matter. Find a resort that offers the vacation experience you're after and pick that over a destination. After all, you're going to spend more time at the resort and this will have a greater impact on the success of your vacation.

How would you compare sanctuary cap cana to secrets tide?? in terms great high level room with tub ,patio with seating , great food , lots of option for restaurant, great service, romantic vibe, get golf cart to transport you , unique design , not loud party atmosphere but more chill to in bewteen upbeat, not clustered can get seat on pool and beach without racing for chair, swimmable , nice excursion for people who are not really adventurous and not the zipline hiking type of person but still would like to find a middle ground

Hi @alanamodi9832 thank you for stopping by the channel and for watching my full resort video tour of Secrets Tides. I hope you have a fantastic vacation. This is a great question and I'll answer it in two parts. Yes, men are required to wear pants and closed toe shoes in all a la carte restaurants. That said, the enforcement of the dress code can be hit or miss at this resort or any resort for that matter. All the restaurants are air conditioned if you opt to eat indoors. Hope this helps.

Hey @dshillow401 so happy to hear that my video tour of Secrets Tides was helpful to you. I hope it got you more excited about your vacation as well. There is no onsite casino at Secrets Tides but there is one at the neighbouring Breathless Punta Cana. I'm not sure if they'd allow it but perhaps worth asking if you're able to use the casino at that resort. The evening entertainment at Secrets Tides was fantastic. Usually a singer or performer in the outdoor area of the lobby near Rendezvous, most nights there was a show in main theatre and Desires has a live DJ. What are you most excited about seeing or doing at Secrets Tides?
