“Melia Caribe Beach impressed me with its sprawling beachfront location and family-centric approach, especially the dedicated kids' areas. I like that there's an option to upgrade to The Level for a more exclusive experience, and the variety of dining choices means there's something for everyone, though I think the staff could ease up on the sales pitches. Overall, it strikes me as a solid choice for a relaxed, all-inclusive vacation in Punta Cana.”
