Thanks. I'll check out that DR resort. I looked at secrets maroma. Looks like an awesome resort. The only complaint I've seen is people complaining about mosquitos. Not really a deal breaker for me. Mosquitos are a part of life in the south.

its a fairly common thing with resorts in the caribbean. I have a good bit of experience with these trips. I you need any advice or have any questions, I will be happy to help. Ive been going a few times per year now for about 15 years. Been all over. Let me know and I can answer by email.

Someone recommended the Excellence in DR. Very nice place. Highly recommend as well. Is on the west end of Punta Cana where the place I recommended is on the east end. The west end of the beach gets a little higher surf. The east end is a little more calm and clear.

A lot of these resorts have similar food and similar booze. Most times, the service is the big difference. You will never go wrong with Sandals but your going to pay a good bit more for it. There are places out there that offer the same service/food quality for less money.

For me, I do not like super crowded places so we pick our times carefully. Plus it helps with the price. We have some places that we have only been to once and some that we have visited as many as 6 times. Most of them are very consistent...
