Why We Recommend It:
Majestic Mirage Punta Cana is a luxury all-inclusive resort on Bavaro Beach, widely considered the Dominican Republic’s, and one of the Caribbean’s, most beautiful beaches.
It has eight restaurants, six of them a la carte, a range of bars, at least one of which is usually open 24 hours, daily & nightly entertainment, numerous free activities, an enormous lazy river style, a swimming pool, a lovely stretch of beach (though the beach can get busy), spa facilities and access to the nearby Punta Cana Golf Course and the Majestic Resort’s own casino.
It is a relatively calm resort with a more upscale, classy vibe, it feels more mature, and exclusive than most Punta Cana all-inclusives, which can be quite raucous affairs.
Families are welcome but it doesn’t have many child-focused facilities or activities on-site. All guests though have access to Majestic Mirage’s more child-friendly, and livelier, sister resort, Majestic Colonial Punta Cana.
This resort is more suited to adults overall we feel, but even so it also has a separate adults-only ‘Mirage Club’ section, which is a little more expensive and exclusive with its own pool, lounge areas and butler service.
Rooms & Suites:
The accommodation is comprised entirely of suites, 511 in total. They are spacious and luxurious and come kitted out with all sorts of modern hotel amenities: large-screen satellite TVs, Nespresso machines, minibars, 24-hour room service, etc.
They also all come with some nice outdoor space, be it terrace or balcony, with a jacuzzi/hot tub.
They range in size from the huge Family Suites which can house up to six to more romantic, intimate one-bedroom suites, including swim-up.
Intimate or not, all of the suites are notably spacious, and elegant and chic. They definitely feel a cut above most all-inclusives in Punta Cana, or anywhere else for that matter.
They are divided into Standard and Club accommodation. Club gives access to separate VIP pool and lounge areas which serve a la carte food and drink and have their own live entertainment, plus some extra perks like personal butler service and unlimited free golf at the Punta Cana Golf Course.
These Club options can either be adults only (Mirage Club) or all ages welcome (Family Club).

Some Guest Reviews:
“First, AMAZING staff, welcoming, attentive and always looking to help make your stay memorable. Special thanks to Esmelin, our beach butler, he went out of his way to make our kids experience amazing. Modern huge rooms, great food (bit repetitive in the buffet) and a great experience all in all. Food at Japanese (especially the teppan), Italian and steak restaurants is very very good! Did not care for the French one particularly (you need a reservation and it is adults only), food is rather underwhelming and place is hot. Cafe and 24 hour fast-food joint are good, excellent desserts at the cafe, regular to good food at the fast-food place. Bars are very well stocked, especially the one in the lobby, and bartenders will do their best to accommodate your drink preference. Nighttime shows are well organized and produced, and we all (kids and adults) enjoyed them very much. Would return here in a heartbeat!.….”
