Samana Bay

The room. Was well kept and clean. The towels were restocked . The wait staff was willing to do anything to make your stay great.

I was concerned the service was going to be spotty. My prior experience in Punta Cana was that the staff are generally meh...while they'll help you, it won't always be with a smile. And that's okay...I'm not owed a smile all the time. But when you spend a big wad, you are kind of paying for some smiles. My concerns were stupid...the service at Finest PC was even better than we received at Playa Mujeres. I didn't believe it could be possible, but alas, here I am writing one of my few reviews. Everything was great, except the honey mustard. No lie. That's literally the only complaint from my family of 11 very boughetto travelers. LOL. We are foodies and germaphobes wo insist on traveling. Haha! To understand the delusion, out next trip will be a cruise! A floating petri dish that we will board intentionally. I digress...Finest is the spot for our kind, hands down. They clean before you can dirty. You thought you were gonna slurp down the end of that pina colada, but nope. They already took the glass and brought a new fresh one while you blinked ever so quickly. Dinner service was superior - they know us and what we like. They didnt need to be told every single little common sense thing. If we were all talking and engaged, they just started bringing table apps. I appreciate that kind of intuitive service. The kids didnt have to say "virgin" each and every time. We all had finest club, but that's because of the need" for a menu at breakfast. Otherwise, there's no need for club.

Facility is great (pool, rooms, dining areas, beach, spa, etc) everything is exceptionally clean and comfortable. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Great variety and quality of food and drinks. However, programs and activities are performed by amateurs and are boring.
