Staying at this resort will
make you feel like royalty
The
Majestic Colonial Punta Cana has come a long way since initially opened it’s doors. The
deluxe style of this resort fused with breathtaking lush surroundings will make
you feel like royalty. In the beginning this resort was announced as one
of the best resorts ever opened in Punta Cana. The early visitors of this hotel
weren’t very impressed because of the major propaganda that they launched while they couldn’t back it up. Lately they have improved a lot to
live to their reputation.
The Majestic Colonial Punta Cana resort is 5 star all inclusive resort have extraordinary
service while providing among the best accommodations in Punta Cana. The resort
have 659 amazing rooms with many different categories among them. While it is
from a fair distance to the airport (30 minutes) the all inclusive resort
located inArena Gorda
beach provide all kind of different packages
according to your need. The place has 2 mini clubs for kids so no worrying about
the children being bored. Great night shows, food and excellent service for
people of all ages. The beach itself is quite
close to the resort so the walks to the beach are small.
Rooms
The accommodations here are indeed pretty good. A room may
include: 1 king size
bed or 2 queen beds with air conditioner, satellite TV, mini bar, terrace, room
service, and more. The room types found here are : junior suite garden view,
junior suite colonial, junior suite majestic pool, junior suite ocean view,
suite, and suite colonial Jacuzzi. The facilities in this rooms naturally vary
with the type of room chosen.
The junior suite colonial, the junior suite majestic pool,
and the suite colonial Jacuzzi enjoy the special benefit of exterior Jacuzzi and
private garden which is more directed toward romantic couples. One distinctive
feature of the rooms here is that the shower and bathtub part are not separated
from the room unlike the toilet, which is in closed space. For some families that
could be a little uncomfortable as there is not much privacy while taking a
bath. Which is one of the reasons I’m more inclined to say that the Majestic
Colonial Punta Cana resort is
clearly more focus toward couples. The majestic colonial rooms are quite big
with enough chairs and sofa for resting when you don’t feel like going to bed.
Pool and Beach
Majestic
Colonial Punta Cana resort has 2 pools. One of
them is for children which is perfect for them to swim around and play like only
they love to do. The other is the standard for everybody else. This pool is
shaped like a river that go through most of the resort, which honestly is quite
different from the pools of the other resorts which mostly are round shaped and
other irregular forms.
If you are not in the mood for swimming you can always relax by the pool, remember to use a sun block lotion and some sunglasses for more solar protection. The pool has crystal clear water and there is plenty of
space in it for everybody. A part of the pool usually near one of the ends is
where most activities like water volleyball and scuba lessons are done.
The
swim
up bar; great addition like always especially after a relaxing swimming exercise.
The chairs and umbrellas at the side of the pool are for the taking but like you
would expect in the early mornings is the moment to reserve them (using the
always popular towel method).
The Arena Gorda beach is beautiful as usual with pretty
nice waves that are perfect for boogie boarding. The beach is quite clean and
also have a reef close by the shore (fantastic for snorkeling). The
Palapas
in white sand makes the area a dreamy place to rest and have a good time.
Food
The Majestic Colonial Punta Cana has a well rounded group
of interesting restaurants. You have your usual main buffet with the always
necessary a la carte restaurants. The buffet is pretty much the only choice at
breakfast while you will have much more variety at dinner. The buffet for some
people is great but for others it isn’t anything special. For the a la carte
restaurants you got the Chinese, Japanese, Mexican, grill, steak, and seafood.
The Japanese, Mexican, steak, and seafood are known to be the most tasty around
here. The others well..., let say they aren’t that great. One of the main advantages
here is that no reservations are required to enjoy these magnificent restaurants
but they still insist on the dress code.
Entertainment
The
activities around the Majestic Colonial Punta Cana resort are
indeed something to remember. They have a gym with fitness machines and weights
to help exercise anyone that wish to do so. One of the favorites is the spa that
offers a great variety of treatments like massages, facials and mud baths. The
golf course nearby the hotel can provide excitement to
those fans of the sport. The golf course and the spa are available with
extra cost but believe me if you are interested in them by all means just do it, after all it is your vacation.
Day and night tennis which is a personal
favorite of mine and the marvelous water sports (kayak, snorkeling,
windsurfing,
catamarans and pedal boats) add to the majestic colonial resort plentiful choices
to experience the joy of a life time. The supervised kids clubs for ages 4 to 7
and 8 to 14 years are a special feature to ensure that your children will also
have an awesome time in this resort.
Thenight shows with the artists imitations and dancing are
splendid especially for the low budget of this productions. The night activities
are completed with a spine tingling visit to the disco bar where you can dance
at the rhythm of your favorite tunes. The casino is always a pretty decent
alternative, but keep a fair a mount of cash to have fun and always
remember to not get carried away.
