re: Thoughts on Excellence in Punta Cana?

We went there for our Honeymoon in November of '14. We were very underwhelmed. The food was ok, no AC in the restaurants, I can remember sweat dripping onto my grilled lobster. It was partially being renovated when we were there so rooms were dated one pool was closed. First night we were there had an electricity blackout from 10pm to 5am room. It was miserable hot. Room AC couldn't keep up with humidity. Armed guards lurk in the shadows at night and the beach it lit up like Tiger Stadium at night so the locals don't rob you blind. We wouldn't go back.

TLDR-Wouldn't recommend.
