I’m in the Aiport as we speak about to leave. And Riu Republica was definitely a party spot! We ended up going to the Jungle Party ! Love the beach and palm trees as well
@@Coolist Thanks again. This is the best Dominican Republic info channel ever. Your video & quality capture are exceptional. Love your camera movements as you pan the scene. Your info is to the point and very well explained. Your speech and self expression is awesome. You deserve to be on 1 million plus subscribers and I'm sure you will get there with quality vlogs like this.
I stayed at the Majestic mirage back in in 2019 and the beach was absolutely breathless white sand turquoise water and calm water and no seaweed .My best guess is that from time to time one beach could be better depending particular time year.
Thankyou James you just made my day I've booked royalton punta cana and I am a beach bum..dreading sea weed and lack of sunbeds but if I'm lucky hopefully won't be an issue going in 50 days mid July 2022.
James, its an intriguing rating. Clearly size matters BUT loungers and shade (be it natural palm tree or some sort of a fixed umbrella) is pretty critical. So too is the space. I find some of the beaches the privacy is lacking given the loungers are pretty tight. I also like the beaches with the bolla beds.. It dies seem like you could build a whole other resort on the Hard Rock beach
hi james please when your next in mexico could you review the bahia princepe akumal . i would like to know where you rate it compaired to ambur cheers have a wonderful week .im serioulsly enjoying your reviews
Good morning. Wondering if you have found a resort that has water that is flat calm, clear not silty and turquoise colored. One that is free from seagrass and large coral beds.
where does Nickelodeon fall if it were put on this list? I know its Uvero Alto so darker sand and choppier water but videos of the beach look good. I'm heading there in December.
I am 54. My mother is 76. Our priorities are the beach quality and the food quality. We insist on a beautiful beach and excellent food options. We would like a bit of fun. We're old. So we're not partiers but we want some entertainment. We mostly want a boutique resort feel with a lot of quiet time. But, as I just said, we would like some entertainment. Room must be nice, but not the most important thing. So, I see you have a lot of experience in a lot of resorts. What resort would you recommend to this older mom/daughter duo? It must be all inclusive, too. With a spa. The best bang for our buck. Doesn't have to necessarily be in Punta Cana. Anywhere in the Caribbean. Thank you, Sir. :)
Help wife's birthday trip! In need of a newer resort with a great beach, looking at Lopesan but is there enough room to enjoy the ocean there? Looks roped off awfully close to the beach? Any input appreciated. Love Coolist but reviews I have seen.
I'm currently at Royalton Punta Cana. There is actually lots of seaweed in the water and on the beach. Not many people going swimming because of it. Maybe it depends on the time of year.
Barcelo Bavaro Beach is much nicer than the top 3 beaches listed here. Amazing clear shallow water that stretches for hundreds of yards out into the ocean. I have been to them all. Riu Republica is the funnest beach because of the bigger waves. All top 3 beaches here are very nice though.
Deped what you want in beach your ratings are. What is the point of your ratings when water is not calm and swimable, when you must fight with waves to stay up instead to relax and swimm. Ratings on any resort should be if beach water is calm and swimmable and how clean water is.
great info bro because the beach is a top 1-3 factor when i pick my all inclusive
I’m in the Aiport as we speak about to leave. And Riu Republica was definitely a party spot! We ended up going to the Jungle Party ! Love the beach and palm trees as well
Crazy party or what? I am guessing Republica had parties on property but nothing like the Jungle party
Bavaro beach is by far the nicest beach in punta cana for a resort.
Outside of resorts the mosy beautiful beach is on samana island
That's because you haven't been to playa Dominicus or Bayahibe or Bahía de las Aguilás.
Awesome James!
Cant wait for the food ranking and pool next :)
Thank you for this valuable information.
Living your best life!
2 videos back to back!! 😊
Very informative with useful info. Thank for sharing
Of course 🙏🏻

Was there Seaweed?
First trip to PC later this year. Interested in your thoughts about Cap Cana beaches. Specifically, SCC. Thanks.
Great info. Thanks for sharing

Great video. Would you say this video is still valid now or have things changed in December 2023?
James we need an update to this vid, now that you visited more resorts, please
where does Nickelodeon fall if it were put on this list? I know its Uvero Alto so darker sand and choppier water but videos of the beach look good. I'm heading there in December.
near breathless
What about bathrooms showers etc ?

Go to Anguilla
Royalton bavaro and Royalton punta cana, are there heavy seaweed in July?

Wouldn't you say that the Juanillo beach where Hyatt Ziva and Zilara are - is the best?
I'm currently at Royalton Punta Cana. There is actually lots of seaweed in the water and on the beach. Not many people going swimming because of it. Maybe it depends on the time of year.
Did it clear up before you left ? Currently I have Royalton bavaro booked for July. Seaweed making me nervous
Do you know if you can walk in between beaches or are they private to each hotel?
Where would the barcelo bavaro beach rank???
Barcelo Bavaro Beach is much nicer than the top 3 beaches listed here. Amazing clear shallow water that stretches for hundreds of yards out into the ocean. I have been to them all. Riu Republica is the funnest beach because of the bigger waves. All top 3 beaches here are very nice though.
I am confused with so many hotels, I want elegance and a good beach that is not so expensive, which one do you recommend?
I’m looking to go to serenade but there beach looks wack so this video is gonna make my decision hopefully the beach is my top priority
Why you put the majestic mirage in the top 13 and the royalton bavaro in the top 6? when they are next to it and have the same beach.
What about Iberostar?
What time of year were you at theses beaches?
Margaritaville,r Riu, or Chicc for a bachelor party 29-year-old?
Riu
5th...

Have you considered a career as the "Rick Steves" of resorts?
You are in the process of watching it :)
Still in Cap Cana and the seaweed is getting worse.
