    Food for thought

    Don’t really ever write reviews, but because of the cost / value ratio on our experience I felt compelled. The resort itself is nice, have lots of activities and accommodations for the kids. The water park particularly they loved! Rooms are nice as well, but as heads up the swim up pools for the rooms are very public, which I wouldn’t want considering the added cost. The real hiccup here is the food. Unfortunately I don’t have a nice way to say it, it’s awful. Taste like fake everything, even the juice tasted like Tang from my childhood. The service also lackluster, barely could get a smile out of the wait service. Everyone seemed a bit annoyed to help. Final note is the location is bit far out to main area of Punta Cana. We got cabs few nights because of the food we ventured out for dinner, but was 40 minute ride each way. Spent over $100 each night we went out in cabs. Hope this helps anyone who is looking for their next vacation

    Horrible customer service.

    I am currently staying at the Nickelodeon resort. I tried to extend my stay due to delayed flights, however the front desk staff basically tells us they don't want us here anymore. When I asked if there were any available rooms for an extra night, they told us 'probably not, please try a different resort'. Unbelievably ignorant service all around. Avoid this hotel at all costs. Nickelodeon even blocks trip Advisor access while using their wifi because they are scared people will leave negative reviews during their stay

    Worst Resort Experience – DO NOT RECOMMEND!

    Worst Resort Experience – DO NOT RECOMMEND! I just returned from Nickelodeon Resort Punta Cana, and I can confidently say that it was the worst resort experience I’ve ever had. Before going, I checked the reviews, and honestly, I have no idea how this place is considered a 5-star resort. Food – Absolutely Terrible! • The food in EVERY restaurant was awful. Poor quality, limited variety, and the desserts were some of the worst I’ve ever had. • The juices were the worst I’ve ever tasted—completely artificial and undrinkable. • Restaurant reservations were a nightmare, and in the end, all the restaurants served pretty much the same food. Hygiene – A Complete Disaster • The cleanliness in the bars was shocking! Glasses were “washed” in a dirty bucket of water that wasn’t changed regularly. This means that an alcoholic drink glass could be washed in the same water and then used to serve juice for kids. Unacceptable! Service – Absolutely Horrible • Communication with staff was terrible. If you don’t purchase extra packages, they simply stop helping you. • The concierge pretends to assist but is only interested in selling packages. • Most employees were extremely rude and uninterested. The only exception was a staff member named Henry, who worked at the Space restaurant (I don’t remember the exact name). Paid Experiences – A Complete Waste of Money! • The hotel uses the Nickelodeon brand, but you can only see the characters if you pay extra. I attended the character breakfast and paid nearly $600 for 8 people, and it was absolutely awful! The food was terrible, and the whole experience was disappointing. Zero Customer Care • My daughter lost a toy at the resort, and another child took it. When we tried to resolve it, the staff didn’t care at all. • They were painting the walls without any warning signs, and my daughter got her clothes completely stained. The staff told us to send the clothes to laundry service, but nobody ever came to pick them up. I had to take the dirty clothes back home myself. I DO NOT RECOMMEND Nickelodeon Resort Punta Cana! The service is terrible, the food is disgusting, the staff is rude, and the hygiene is unacceptable. Anyone who asks me about this resort, I will tell them to avoid it at all costs. If you’re thinking of going, save your money and choose another place!

    Beautiful and clean, but food was terrible

    Have been deciding if I was going to write one of these but decided I needed to: Pros: The resort was beautiful, clean and everyone was very friendly! We loved all the bartenders and pool staff, they wrrr amazing! We had a wonderful time as a little family (my husband, myself, and our toddler), but due to the cons we would not go back. Cons: We hadn’t even gotten in our room and our concierges was asking for more money. We said no to one of these meetings and were not treated the same from that point on. Another staff member even came up to try to get us to help her out. Very distasteful. The main reason we will not be back is the food. We are not picky people but the majority of things were not edible. We had a good meal at space walker one night and a good steak at the Italian restaurant, otherwise we lived off the eggs and bread at breakfast. There were many things not available and the food was just not what was described on the menu. We were very disappointed at how such a beautiful, clean, otherwise wonderful resort could miss so much on the food.

    Beautiful memories

    As a Prestige member we get a butler. Dariel was very helpful and pleasant to deal with. Kids loved Dariel and couldn’t get enough of him. My 3 years old daughter with hug him and play with him every time she would see him. Food was decent and the resort was good.
