2. Aparta Hotel Plaza del Sol 3* – Pet Friendly Hotels Dominican Republic

Aparta Hotel Plaza del Sol

Centrally located in downtown Santo Domingo, this hotel is 2.5 km from the Museum of Natural History. It offers on-site currency exchange, free Wi-Fi and rooms with a kitchenette.

Each air conditioned room is uniquely decorated with tile floors and dark wood furniture. Flat-screen cable TV, a dining table and a safety deposit box are standard in all rooms.

The Hotel is not one of the most central ones, but its also not too far away from the “zona colonial”. There are no restaurants around the corner, but two supermarkets, which is just enough, as the rooms have kitchens. We had a car, so for us the place was perfectly ok.
The kitchen should include some essentials like soap for cleaning the pans. But after asking, we got some.

The rooms are very nice and spacious. On the contrary the bathrooms and showers are very small, too small. And the water did not rinse away very quickly in the shower.

All rooms are comfy, spacious with a fully equipped kitchenette if you want prepared some food…, free wifi…… room services is great with a daily cleaning service.

It’s well located next to the zona universitaria and just 5-10 minutes drive from the city to all the malls, goverment offices, movie theaters and big plazas (Acropolis, Blue Mall, Agora, etc). Two big supermarkets, banks and many amenities only to 5 minutes walk.

I can recommend this hotel to anybody who is planning to be in Santo Domingo for a good price, safety and great service.

3. Zoetry Agua Punta Cana  5* – Pet Friendly Hotels Punta Cana

Zoetry Agua Punta Cana

Zoetry Agua Punta Cana is located right on the Dominican Republic’s beautiful Caribbean coast. This luxurious resort boasts several outdoor pools, a spa and wellness centre and an open-air restaurant overlooking the beach.

Each air-conditioned suite here features sleek eco-friendly décor, with vaulted ceilings and natural wood floors. They include a seating area, a private terrace and a spacious bathroom with a shower, bathtub and free toiletries.

Set along a white sand beach on the Atlantic Ocean, this elegant all-inclusive resort is 6 km from the water park Sirenis Agua Games and 48 km from Punta Cana International Airport.

 

Polished suites offer terraces, minibars, soaking tubs and sitting areas, plus free Wi-Fi, flat-screens and coffeemakers. Upgraded suites have ocean or pool views, while the 3-bedroom villas add kitchens. There’s 24-hour room service.

There are 4 restaurants, a cafe and 3 bars (including a swim-up bar). There’s also a spa and a fitness center, plus 4 outdoor pools and direct beach access.

Excellent experience onsite, recommended 2000% to everyone considering traveling in the area, looking for accomodations for a romantic getaway, we choose to bring out dog and he was pampered as much as we were too. Would love to go again next year.
Friendly staff, in particular at the Piragua restaurant. The service there was generally good and further improved when we started tipping. Generally nice resort, though the rooms in the older part (built in 2006) definitely need refurbishment.
Beach and ocean look nice, but you cannot really swim in the sea (boulders and strong current). Good food in the Piragua and Amaya restaurant (these restaurants have a shared kitchen) and also in the Indigo lunch restaurant.
Room: We had a 1st Floor Swim Out Junior Sweet. It was the exact same room our friends had that was oceanfront.
The room had plenty of space (725 sf), nice waterfall shower, and a deck with a table and some chairs that led to a nice long pool that adjoined several of the rooms.
The bed was comfortable and they came several times a day to clean, restock the fridge and towels, and do a turndown service. The TV had lots of channels with several in English for us.
Pools: The main swim up pool was just the right size for the amount of people at the resort. I would be a bit worried if the resort was at full capacity, but I believe it was only at 30-40% this time of year.
There was a second pool, plus the pools that were aligned with the swim out suites. All were constantly cleaned and in good shape.

Great location, super comfy beds, exceptionally clean, the had several COVID measures (if you used a chair-long in the pool they put an “used” label so the staff proceed to clean it before another person use it, disinfectant all over the place, alcohol pads, etc); staff was friendly.
They provided us with pet supplies for my two dogs.
We have stayed at the Westin four or five times because they are pet friendly. The hotel pool is great and the beach is beautiful. The food at the two restaurants is delicious and their lobby bar serves some of the best cocktails we have has at a resort.
This is not an all-inclusive resort, so don’t expect entertainment and activities. It’s a great hotel on the beach to come to for relaxation, sun, delicious food and good drinks.
Bottom line is that this is one of those few places that makes me want to write a review after I return, as I want to relive the trip. We can’t wait to go back!

Resort is very nice – well tended grounds, clean, and seemed like there were pools everywhere! For us, the difference maker is always service and this resort did not disappoint.
Food was very good for an all-inclusive – highly recommend Bordeaux – the lamb chops and ribs were both really good. We really liked this Secrets take on the Barefoot Grill with not just burgers and hot dogs, but grilled chicken and pork offerings, and my husband’s favorite, the pepitos. Evening entertainment is good and there are both nightclub and sports bar options. Really liked that there is a large bar right outside from the main restaurant area. This is a large resort so be prepared to do a little walking. We stayed in a preferred, Jr Suite with private pool which we really enjoyed.
The beach here is pretty but is public so there are vendors that will approach you to sell things. We’ll be back to this Secrets in the future.
  We were given an absolutely amazing room – 1466 – that had the most amazing view of the sunrise.  The room had a jacuzzi tub on the balcony and was the perfect size inside, however it was 2 full beds so we were moved the following day to room 1370 which had a king and a very large balcony with jacuzzi tub.
The bathroom had a jack and jill sink and a beautiful marble shower.
Overall, we had such a fantastic time and we cannot wait to get back here.
