Tropical all-inclusive Punta Cana resort lures with leisure activities
Tropically colored buildings and swaying palms paint the scene of paradise at Ocean Blue Golf and Beach Resort, which is steps from the White Sands Golf Course. The kid-friendly, all-suite property attracts leisure travelers with 374 rooms decorated with island style and British Colonial-inspired furniture. A heavy roster of leisure activities -- like scuba lessons and bowling -- complements the many bars and restaurants on site.
Highlights
  • Multiple leisure activities, from bow and arrow to bowling
  • Seven a la carte restaurants, two buffets and 10 bars
  • All-suite tropical hotel with air conditioning and balconies
  • Walking distance to White Sands Golf Course
Rooms
Ocean Blue Golf and Beach Resort  rooms evoke breezy tropical décor driven by bright colors, palm prints and British Colonial furniture. All 374 rooms are air conditioned suites equipped with welcome conveniences like marble bathrooms with double sinks, a mini-refrigerator filled with sodas and balcony for taking in views of the lush grounds. Guests rest on one king or two double beds topped with patterned bedding. An in-room Jacuzzi furthers the luxury. Walls sport an island motif with vibrant colors like aqua or salmon and coastal-themed artwork.
Features
Recreation
A dedicated entertainment staff keeps the itinerary busy all day long at Ocean Blue Golf and Beach Resort. Guests might take a scuba diving lesson in the pool, play beach volleyball or water polo or learn how to maneuver a bow and arrow. Theme parties keep the mood festive, while off-site excursions like catamaran expeditions and snorkeling tours cater to thrill seekers. The hotel also invites patrons to go wall climbing or bowling (at a maximum of one hour of play per room).
Dining
Diners indulge in diverse fare at the seven a la carte restaurants and two buffets at Ocean Blue Golf and Beach Resort. La Casa de mi abuela and La Casa Caribbean Grill plate up local dishes, while La Tortuga is a staple for the all-day buffet. Some eateries come with an extra dose of ambiance, from Arenal Beach Restaurant and Snack Bar to reservations required-Bucareno, a seafood boite right on the beach. Ten bars -- including a swim-up bar -- fuel the tropical scene.

Relaxing vacation, no worries

The Ocean Blue was a great value for your money. I have stayed at all-inclusives before and you usually get what you pay for. The food and drinks were good nothing spectacular but they put a lot of effort into giving you many options and the different types of restaurants offered ambiance and many different selections which was nice. The staff was very friendly and made sure you had a good time. The grounds were pretty. I would definetely go back.

Pleasantly surprised

The Ocean Blue Golf & Beach Resort was beautiful and the accommodations were much better than we anticipated based on the bargain price. There were marble floors everywhere and the lobby and public bathrooms were tastefully decorated. The design style was classic Caribbean accented with modern details. The resort amenities were excellent and included a nightly band in the lobby, at least one daily theater show, a casino, bowling alley and pool hall, and several nightclubs. The best surprises were the seven restaurant choices! The high quality food choices on the Buffet were our favorite. We were also impressed that the staff checked the temperature on the buffet items with a thermometer. Premium liquor was available at the 6 bars and the local varieties were pretty good too. The only criticisms we had were the hotel front desk staff were not very inviting,and even bordering on rude. They were also slow and disorganized. Additionally, the bathroom grout around the Jacuzzi tub needed to be replaced. These were minor infractions that did not overshadow this wonderful vacation experience. The time share people were not pushy but we loved it so much we purchased. We absolutely loved all of the bartenders and most of the wait staff.

great location,good food,beautiful beaches

My stay @ Ocean Blue Resort in Punta Cana was a wonderful experience like no other in Dominican Republic.From the friendly staff @ the front desk to the animation team we were so well pampered with almost everything that we asked for(extra pillows,massage in the room,replenished mini bar).Room service is great.The hotel has two big pools with jacuzzis as well.The food was delicious with a good variety(I liked the most was the dominican:great selection and better taste;but the grill and pasta section was great too).The room was clean ,but I think they need to put more effort in decor and maintenance.I traveled with my teenage son and my friend/son too.The hotel offers diverse activities for adults (live music in the lobby area every night) and the teens club(they have even their own discoteqe,,video games,bowling,pool,etc.) I would recommend this hotel for families w/children,young people.

My review of Ocean Blue Golf and Beach Resort - All Inclusive

The Hotel was very well kept, friendly service, large pools and great beach. The buffet was well stocked with good assortment. You must be sure to request a room facing the pool, or you will not have any views. The Restaurant waiting times can be excessive, and the resort needs more trams than just one. A real negative was that the pool water was COLD, very few people were even in the pools. A second real negative was the wireless Internet service. Aside from that, the location and size of the resort is excellent, the pool bars were great, and the nightly shows were well done.

family friendly

Our family had a nice winter getaway.We had a spacious room with a gorgeous view.Food was mediocre but the Christmas eve dinner was a blast with very festive and presentable sumptous dinner. There was entertainment especially at night.Do not miss Mikes coffee bar...However on our last day 2 guys opened our door stating that they just check in and the front desk gave them our room.What a fiasco. Since then our keys wont work.So we have to go to the lobby and complain...Our stay could be better if the weather cooperated.It rained for 2 days...But overall our stay was pleasant and relaxing.

Punta Cana Vaca

Love this place, people are very nice, very clean, except for the room service and getting clean towels. We had to find someone and ask for towels. the room was made but we didn't get to clean towels everyday. The coffee shop was my favorite place it just like being at starbucks felt like home, open 10am to 12midnite. The open air lobby lounge with live music was a great place to hangout and relax every night the weather and breeze was heavenly. The sports bar open til 6am was the great place to end the night with very friendly service the only thing that the pool table needs to be replaced, but the bowling alley had better ones. Beautiful beach great frozen drinks and food. This is my second time here I almost went some where else but was afraid and just went with a sure thing.
