Stayed in the Ocean Sand/Blue resort in early June 08. Over all a great experience. Food was good, having several restaurants to choose from was good as you can get a little sick of the buffet, although some of the food was quite similar between restaurants (Caribbean Grill at the beech was our favourite). Rooms were clean and modern, mini-bar... more

We stayed at the Ocean Blue from June 5-12. I, like most, was a little worried after reading some not so pleasant reviews. The transfer to the hotel took approximately 40 minutes. We stopped at one other hotel before arriving at Ocean Blue. The check in time for my in-laws was 10 minutes, however they told us to go to... more

Myself and my daughter stayed at the Ocean Blue/Sands resort from the the 9th May until the 23rd May. Arriving at the resort after a 9 hour flight was a relief because I was shattered and wanted to relax in my room. Check in went ok although the room wasn't ready for two hours (there was a conference being held... more

I went to Ocean Blue as a bride’s maid in a wedding. This was the 1st and very last time I will visit this resort. The trolleys that are supposed to take you around the resort do not run frequently and stop prior to the bars and clubs closing. The food was terrible, dry and tasteless. We even tried one... more

The hotel is located in the nice place, but there are main problems: 1. There are many wild dogs are on the beach. They run into hotel property barking, releasing parasites, and spreading feces. They endanger kids and actually everybody on the beach. I tried to draw attention of the management and people in charge of security on the beach... more

The Ocean Sand was a great resort that I will actually think about returning to. Myself, my parents, my sister, my cousin and her boyfriend stayed one week (May 17-24) at Ocean Sand Golf and Beach Resort. This is pretty lengthy, but I wanted to give details!! We have all traveled to Punta Cana on many occasions in the past... more

Two girlfriends and I recently stayed at the Ocean Sand Resort in Punta Cana, Dominician Republic. Unfortunately, I had forgotten about Trip Advisor when researching my choice of hotel. The website indicated that the junior suite included two queen beds or one king. Being three persons, we opted for the two queens. When our confirmation from our travel agent was... more
