Zel Punta Cana was an incredible resort. The rooms were truly five-star—clean, modern, and beautifully designed. The service was just as good. While not all staff speak English, they’re kind, patient, and happy to let you practice Spanish. It was fun to brush up on mine! Service-wise, everything was top-notch. We loved the beach club, the hibachi restaurant, and every bar. Activities were fun and easy to join, with a quick ride to a gorgeous beach. We actually preferred the pool, but the beach club was a great option. Chairs were always available, and staff helped with excursions and kept vendors away. Everyone made us feel like family. The spa was beautiful, but my deep tissue massage included massage guns, which I didn’t love. Still, the space was relaxing and worth a visit. My biggest feedback is on the food. The buffet needs serious improvement—items weren’t always fresh or at the right temp. We stuck to the omelet bar for breakfast and mostly avoided the buffet otherwise. The restaurants were great but could use more variety and less upselling. Communication was a little inconsistent. It’d be helpful if concierges shared a daily activity list via WhatsApp along with dinner reservations. Still, we had a wonderful time overall! I would give it an eight out of 10

Zel is advertised to be a calming tranquil environment for relaxation. However, the DJs play music (explicit rap at times) loudly throughout the afternoon heard all around the resort. Speakers are all around the resort. Usually not oppose to loud music if confined to certain areas or certain times of the day during foam parties etc. It was loud the entire time to the point you can't concentrate or read by the pool. At one point it was difficult to have a conversation. There were other guests who complained as well. Management did speak to us but problem still persisted. It may not seem loud when you are walking around the resort but if you relax by the pool all day, it wears you out. Otherwise everything was A Ok.

The negative aspect of staying af Zel Punta Cana was the lack of food and food variety at their buffets, really small portions served at their restaurants. Buffet hours of operation varied and need to ask staff before hand or you will starved. Management needs to fix these issues otherwise nobody will return.

I loved the property, the amenities, the staff service, the quiet it is, the beautiful and big rooms.They make you feel very welcomed to the resort. I did not like much was the food. I give it 2.7/5. In the restaurants..the wait time to get your food orders exceeds the normal waiting time. It wasn't the servers fault, all of them were exceptional. My advice is if you are looking for a place to relax and being lazy then this is a good choice but if you are looking for having fun and entertained then it is not.
