My wife and I, along with our two daughters (14 and 9) recently spent 5 nights at the Royalton Punta Cana (Diamond Club). Like those of you reading this review, we also read a decent amount of reviews for RPC and I'll try my best to summarize my thoughts and my experience. First, I'll like to show my appreciation for Ozuna, who was our designated facilitator ("Butler"). Without him, our stay at RPC would have been uncomfortable and stressful. I will strongly encourage upgrading to Diamond, it's worth every penny. I'm giving my overall experience a 3/5.
The good:
This place was absolutely beautiful, the property is well-kept and the beach was pristine with very little, if any, seaweed. The pools are clean and the water park was great. The food was ok, but I didn't expect it to be amazing being the amount of guests that flow through this resort.
The bad:
In our opinion, 7 out of 10 staff members we interacted with were rude and almost left us feeling like we were unwanted or uninvited guests at a house party. I really hope my review, and others similar in nature, captures the attention of upper management at RPC because this place is really beautiful and I believe the staff should enhance the experience not hinder it. We treated all staff members with a smile and we were always eager to show our appreciation with generous tips. Our stay at RPC was short and I'm saddened that moments during this stay made me regret spending my money here.
