Excellence Punta Cana

An introduction to Excellence Punta Cana

As settings go, this one's hard to beat. The hotel opens out onto the deep turquoise of the Atlantic Ocean. Gently swaying palms fringe the shore. And the beach is the stuff of postcards - blindingly-white coral sands soft as talc. All perfect for lazy days in the sunshine. Do keep an eye out for the warning flags, though, as this stretch of coast has strong currents.

It's an Eden-like sanctuary that leaves the real world far behind. Granted, that alone is enough to impress, but great scenery isn't all this place has got going for it. If gorgeous pools, effortlessly elegant bedrooms and first class food are your cup of tea, then this exotic escape will definitely push your holiday buttons.

Your days will begin in style as you wake up to a room decorated in soft shades of vanilla, cream and gold. It continues in the same vein as you soak up the sea view without moving from your poolside sunbed. And by that, we mean an actual bed in the sun. A vast sink-into soft bed with a canopy cover and white drapes – it's the last word in luxury.

Food-wise, you're really in for a treat with seven restaurants to choose from. Tuck into grilled lobster, sensational salads and succulent steaks - delicious.

But the icing on the holiday cake is that it's all exclusively for adults – we're talking over 18's only with no tearaway tots disturbing the peace. So if you're after escaping the madding crowds and adding a little romance to your beach break, this is definitely the spot for you.

The hotel was breathtaking, the staff could not be more helpful. The Chinese/Asian a la carte restuarant is one that you should not miss. The ride back to the airport on a helicopter finishes off a wonderful holiday with fanastic views. Would recommend... more on this review
