Fodor's "By night this megaresort decorated with Arabian-style domes looks like a fairy-tale palace and its generally older clientele are a departure from the other Riu resorts in the vast complex." Full review

Expect little attention from management for special requests because of the large size of the property, though staffers are as friendly as can be.

"A blasting, 620-room mega-resort with uniquely attentive service, Dreams packs in more goodies than most Punta Cana all-inclusives." Full review

Fodor's "Fun resort in a remote, pastoral setting super for families, young couples, wedding entourages, honeymooners, ladies getaways—yes, even singles." Full review

Few buildings (except #1) have full sea views, and there are no elevators so avoid rooms close to the stairwells.
