I had a fantastic stay at Zel Hotel! From the moment we arrived, the staff was attentive and welcoming. The room was spacious and clean. The hotel offers a variety of dining options, including a steakhouse, a sushi/teppanyaki restaurant, a Mexican spot, and the beach club. The food was generally good, though after a week, the options felt a bit limited. The hotel did a great job accommodating my food allergies, which was a huge plus. One of the highlights was the coffee station at reception. Having fresh espresso every morning was a great way to start the day before heading out. I also played at the Cocotal Golf Course, which was fun but not the most challenging course. The all-inclusive experience was top-notch, with a great selection of drinks and plenty of activities to keep us entertained. A special mention to Wascar, the concierge, who helped us plan daily activities and offered great recommendations. Overall, I would definitely recommend Zel Hotel for its excellent service, good food, and relaxing atmosphere. I would love to return in the future.

5/5 - Exceptional Stay! Zel Punta Cana exceeded all expectations! This five-star resort delivered in every way—from the impeccable customer service to the beautiful setting. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and memorable. The food was surprisingly impressive for an all-inclusive—fresh, flavorful, and with plenty of variety. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing and high-quality getaway!

we stayed for 8 days and let me tell you, I would go back tomorrow if I could and stay at this same resort again regardless of the many options you have on the island. The food was so delicious and there are many options for dining. The resort is incredibly clean!!!! All the trees and flowers were absolutely gorgeous. The shuttle is nice to and from the beach. Like I said the whole resort was manicured to perfection! The nightlife is fun as well and the staff ensured you had a great night! All of the staff literally treated you like a member of their own family. Not one single staff member made me feel anything but welcomed and loved. I felt incredibly safe staying at the resort. The security make absolute sure that you were in safe hands while on the property and even at the beach. I love each and every one of you and I will be back next year! Thank you all sooo much for an unforgettable vacation. YOU ALL ARE THE BOSS ❤️❤️

Everything was great - service was also good - wish there was more restaurants, and the ones that are available aren’t open all the time. - the buffets should have more options, they basically serve the same thing everyday. Wish they had an option for something authentic rather than having food we get in the states.

This property is very nice and very cozy because is not too big but comfortable for couples, families and groups, due to the space to walk in natural surroundings between the pools, spa, Mexican restaurant . Also the staff is very friendly, knowledgeable, caring and helpful people. The Mediterranean food is very good to maintain healthy during the stay. For my husband and me this is the key of success for this resort. This resort was inaugurated by Rafa Nadal the Spain tennis player. Give this all inclusive hotel a try and you’ll see how it works.

My family has been coming to this hotel for around 17 years when it was The Reserve.We were aware they remodeled and were excited to experience the hotel again. Except we were very disappointed. A few things below… -Concept - Seems like the hotel has a more “relaxed” concept except the execution of it seems more “cheap and unsophisticated” than “relaxed”. -Check-In - Given the concept, as soon as you arrive, you do self check-in via a QR code. This was the first impression and was not smooth at all. -Music - Back to the concept. The music is REALLY loud across the resort where you can’t even concentrate and read or do anything. I think they can play the same music just a tad bit lower. -Food - Quality of food has declined significantly. -Service - Quality of service has also significantly declined. You have to ask for things several times, half the time they forget or bring you wrong things and zero attention to detail. Angela and Chef Rodrigo are EXCELLENT -Staff - Some of the staff is really nice but some are rude and talk bad about customers to each other in spanish. Also, not professional and say bad words etc… -Rooms - The rooms are really nice and big. We had two connecting rooms for a family of 4. We did have to call maintenance twice, once for the air not working and the second time for the toilet. -Beach - The beach use to be at Paradisus which was fine but now it’s on the other side of the beach It is a shame that this has changed so we will not come back to Zel.
