I like this dude. He really just be chilling and traveling the world. Doesn’t bother anybody, just doing his thing traveling, drinking, and eating. Good on him.
I'm 30 seconds in and I totally see what you mean.
I went to Costa Rica. Ended up in the rainy season. Punta Cuna looks like it is miles ahead of Costa Rica. Just wasnt happy with the vibe there but just watching videod of P.C. I get shivers.🎉
@@edm0000 I'm so sorry that was your experience. Where were you? My experience in CR was incredible. 4 months I traveled everywhere.
he is the type of guy when 10 people are showing off in a high end party a, he walks in a jeans and a tee and tells better things based on real experiences by being casual and without any hype. Top notch.
“Is the alcohol safe?” “I drank a lot of it” hahaha best review
Punta Cana my favorite vacation destination I can’t wait to go back in July ❤️❤️🇩🇴🇩🇴
I can thank you enough for your time and money spent in my country and glad you had awesome time in those properties
One of the best overall reviews of Punta Cana. Thank you
Ya this guy deserves all the views and success! Reviews and tips are always spot on. Thanks man
Thank you very much for all the advise! Me and my husband going in July for the first time! 😀
Hubby and I have been to Punta Cana and Samana many times😎 Everything you mentioned on the video is true! 🌴 I enjoy watching your videos. Keep up the good work!
I'm dominican and been honest this guy is the goat lol. Really nice advices.
My wife and I honeymooned in Punta Cana 5 years ago. We stayed at Dreams Palm Beach, it was a fantastic resort for the money. We went all out ocean view suite I think we paid $4,000 for everything including flights. It would have been a lot cheaper if we wanted but we splurged. This resort had amazing restaurants on site. This guy's video is spot on with what we experienced. Culture of the Dominicans is great, their attitude and demeanor is great. We found quite a bit to do off our resort, we did snorkeling, side by side adventure, swam with sharks and sting rays, had a blast. We didn't have issues leaving our resort, we went out the gates 2 or 3 times there was a lot of shops right outside the resort. My wife bartered for this beautiful painted turtle. They initially wanted $300 she talked them down to $50 and a bottle coke from the resort. Probably still overpaid but never pay initial price. As for the alcohol, it seemed legit to me as well...what I noticed was the coke and soft drinks they used in them made them taste a little funky. So we tried to stick to drinks that didn't require soda of any kind. Our overall experience was amazing. We want to go back for our 10 year anniversary. We wanted to go for our 5th but Covid got in the way.
My wife and I just honeymooned there. Got married in 2020 but held off to buy a house and COVID.
Loved Dreams PB
We just came home yesterday from Dreams Palm Beach. My wife and I stayed for 5 days. $1,600.00 for the both of us. $800 a person. With taxes total cost $1,900.00. You can’t beat it. Out of all the resorts we stayed at Dreams Palm Beach would be the only one we would go back too.
Your wife didn’t talk them down from $300 to $50; that turtle was probably $10 to begin with! 😆 - JK. (But not really 😉)
Does anyone know if drinking the drinks with ice is a problem? I hear not to drink the water or ice.
@@gimmieboy Yea, I've been told by a doctor not to use any of the ice, also only drink bottled water, not from tap
Greatest gratitude for your amazing excellence in your work J.W. Punta Cana ♥️⚘️🥂
Punta Cana is a beautiful paradise, I saw a photograph coffee table book on Amazon about this place full of beautiful photos and is gorgeous!
We are going in a month, I can't wait. Been watching his videos on repeat daily. He's given me lots of tips!
You have talent to summarize a lot of info into a short video. Thanks.
Thank You James for your unbiased video on the 9 punta cana resort, my wife and I have signed up to go majestic mirage in June,never thought that this resort did exist, what a jewel in crown, thank you for all that you are doing and have sent your links to all my friends, hopefully you will one day do a series similar to this for Negril, once again thank you and stay safe in your travels.
Wow!!! I'm going to travel to Punta Cana the next month, and your videos about that were the must interesting videos about the resorts that I could find in youtube! Regards from Mexico!!! You have a new fan here!
I like this guy because he tells you what it all about. He breaks it down the best.
Headed that way on March 7th , so excited, thanks for the info
Good information. My wife and I are planning our trip there for March right after the March break/ spring break. We're from Canada, so I laughed when you said there's lots of Canadians.
Your videos help to decided on which hotel I’m planning to book and of course I’m booking on Riu Republica. Thank you
How was it? Wife & I going 2 weeks ?
Hello, I'm Dominican and proud of your video
Thank You god bless.
Before I plan a trip I do my research thoroughly so that everything from rooms, to the food, the overall resort and excursions are known before we leave. I have watched several vlogger and by far your videos are the most informative and detailed. Thanks
Love this video and yes you're on the floor literally, that means you had a hell of a time...whoopp whoopp...
OMG can't wait to get there!
I just returned from Secrets Royal Beach and have to agree with everything said! We had an amazing time and loved the Dominican people!
Hi I wanted to ask given the things that has happened with people passing a couple of years ago from the drinks at resorts were you concerned about drinking while you were there
We just got back from our 2nd time in Punta Cana. Everything you said is true! As far as FOMO and leaving the resort there is a very popular disco/nightclub not too far away that people really enjoy. As far as meeting people from different countries this time we met up with 2 pairs of Brits, they are by far the biggest party animals we have ever met!
Lol thank you we certainly are 💃
Great video with great content! Heading there next week! Thanks!
Really great video. An excellent relaxed presentation whilst also cutting straight to the chase. Double thumbs up.
This is one of my favorite channels. Very inspirational.
Hey James me and my father love your videos he told me to go to watch your videos to select the best resorts of Punta Cana for our honeymoon 😍🙈 we selected majestic mirage I love your TH-cam channel I wish you all the best ❤️
Just returned from Punta Cana.
Amazing.
I agree with you on almost everything.
Go out once. Go to CocoBongo !
A great list! Cannot wait to go back
I know the folks well at Royalton. Been there 15 times since 2014, and Maria in the vid is a good friend. Gonna see them in November. Can't wait!
Been to Punta Cana 4 times and all you said is true, loving your videos they are informative and very acurrate.
Me and my family are about to go there in 8 days and I’m so hyped and excited
Glad you like punta cana . Next time go to samana.
Great content. Always enjoy the videos
Went to DR in 2021 and it was one of the best vacations I’ve ever been on. GREAT bang for your buck. Food/drink was meh at the all-inclusive we stayed at (Excellence) but the accommodations and overall experience was awesome.
My favorite all inclusive in Cancun, The Grand Moon Palace, is slated to open an all inclusive in Punta Cana in 2022 sometime. So excited. Our experience with this resort was so good we are already going back and taking our extended family. Definitely check it out when it opens.
I’m going next week - thanks for the video.
I from London. I got hooked to your videos .your just the greatest
Ty for all the great information. Me and my girlfriends are heading there in November.
Very helpful and direct, thanks from 🏴

I’m visiting Rui Republica and can’t wait! I’ve loved the vid and will be following for more.
Wife & I going very soon - how was it ? Any pros & cons ? I don't drink but my wife will & can u buy edibles or vape pens ?
I just watched three of your videos and loved them!! I’ve only done one all inclusive, Excellence Riveria Maya, and it was amazing. Thinking of going to Punta Cana and your videos r extremely helpful!!
Thank you! Very good and straight to the point 👍👏
Another Excellent Video!
Wow, very helpful thank you!!
Great video, very helpful, thank you.
Waooo thanks for this information very helpful
I’m at Hard rock right now watching for fun. This is all very true
Nice work James. There is a thriving local scene along Bavaro Beach that are not all-inclusive . La Piazzetta is our community in El Cortecito- visit us next time. Cheers!
Bill - I will 🤝
Great tips! Thank you for your awesome suggestions. They were awesome and helped make for a perfect vacation to Punta Cana. Muchos gracias senor!
thanks man. great tips!
Thank you. I've watched a few of your videos as I prepare to go to the Riu
Have you heard of Cap Cana? More expensive, higher end than Punta Cana - would love for you to check it out. They have private villas too that are amazing.
Love this video it was very informative
Punta Cana is Paradise! I saw a gorgeous coffee table book about this place full of beautiful photos on Amazon 😊
Going in May can’t wait 🕺
I hope that you are able to make a trip to Jamaica and do your reviews...you will not only have a banging time but you will also get some of the greatest foods around..on property but also off property... hint hint. Yes..am jamaican. Keep the videos coming. Thanks for the detailed and concise reviews
Jamaica is so cool. I went to Secrets Wild Orchid/St James in Montego Bay. It was bloody fantastic. I went alone but it didnt matter. There was quite a spread of people, lone travellers, groups, couples and friends. I had a fabulous week. The food was very good and it was a very fun atmosphere, I want to go back this summer
I just visited Punta Cana. I perhaps should have watched this before I left. However, after watching this video I agree with all 25 points you made. Thank you for an honest review.
I also took a tour to the capital city of Santo Domingo. If you're a history nerd like me and want to learn more about the history of the Domincan, it's not bad. And Domincans are very friendly people. Just don't forget to say good morning, good afternoon, or good night to them in Spanish as well. They appreciate when you greet them and say hi, especially at the resorts.
I did 2 weeks trip in so many places in Dominican Republic. I was sleeping every 2 days in different village and city. It was amazing, I could see real Dominican Republic, because staying in hotel you can't explore it :). I could see real life, real public transport and amazing food.
I spend 1000 pounds including flight, airbnb, food and transport. And no. I didnt have bad standard of airbnb. You would be surprised :)
Did you go on your own? X
@@teresareid5034 I went with my bf :)
I watch all your videos about Vegas. Awesome.
I did a lot of things during my trips to Punta Cana. Went on off road safaris and visited islands. All excursions were purchased at my all inclusive hotels from what I can remember. It is so true that more expensive hotels are not always better.
Did you go on your own? X
If you are in Punta Cana, look ahead at excursions online and they will often be cheaper than what the resorts offer. Don't worry, they will pick you up at the hotel. I highly recommend Punta Cana Mike for tours.
So Awesome! I really appreciate your honesty and genuine personality! Your videos are helping me narrow down my next trip and the tips are very helpful. Looking forward to seeing more of your travels!!
Amazing tips!!! Visiting here on vacay in a few weeks!
Thank you so much! I’m Dominican who lives in USA.
Great informative video thank you
Great Info
Cool video thanks pal 👍
they are a great people there! live in the moment and fun TRUE
Cool video man, you answered all my interests plus some 👍
Hey Mr James ….I’m back . Totally apologize for not responding lately. I am so behind on my Coolist videos. So they make it hard to ever leave and no visitors can save you …sounds like the Hotel California lol. Seriously though …I really enjoyed the Punta Cana content . The resorts looked amazing . Great work my friend ! And congrats on the hitting 15k in subscribers…that is so awesome 😎 😎😎
Hella good advice 👌
Great video !
Your Punta Cana series helped me plan my B day trip coming up in march and made me hit the subscribe button. thank you Great content!
Me too! I've learned so much!
Hey man my b day trip also coming up in March! Cheers and enjoy!
Mines too March 9th ftw
You are 100% right, Punta Cana is THE place to go in the carribean
Totally agree!! I've learned a ton and I'm ready to go!
Great vid
I would love to see you do a video of Sanctuary Cap Cana. I will be staying there in July and I'm super excited!
Believe me on this, that’s the best place you can stay. You will really enjoy that hotel 100%.
The food, oh my gosh!!! You will miss the food after your vacation.
Very beautiful and I can bet that you won’t be able to exhaust all the amenities and activities available.
I just got back to the uk from their on Wednesday. I’m still reminiscing.
I can suggest some of stuff for you there.
Omg i would love that!! Im so glad to hear you had a good time!
@@ademoyegunmayowa3320 Are non-motorized water sports included at Sanctuary Cap Cana like kayaks, etc I read that it isn't and I want to sure what I read is accurate.
Big thanks James for the great and helpful videos!
I heard a lot of those stories about drink watering or replacement with the cheaper alternatives. You just don't look like the guy who easily can be screwed on the booze..))
Outstanding video Sir, my wife and I will be staying at the Catalonia next week and we will take all of this in consideration
Great advice. My wife and I are heading out that way. Based on your advice we are heading to RIU Republica.
I was there in February 21, nice place. Numbers were way down at that time because of Covid but still had fun. Don’t miss out on the nightly shows and have some of the chicken down by the pools
Riu republica is the shit!! I'm going back in 2 weeks
Awesome to hear ! Wife & I going in 2 weeks
True the price and the star ratings can be misleading.. great video. I count on people that have actually been to the location for an honest review. That being said, things do change often, hotel staff changes as does renovations/refreshes. Great video such good advice!
bro ur awesome ty for videos'
We are going to Excellence Punta Cana after watching your video on it! You mentioned "welcome drink" when you visited Agave restaurant. You made it sound like something you have to ask for. I thought welcome drinks were what they handed you as soon as you arrived. Am I missing something? Well also got a Junior Suite with private pool based on your video! Thank you so much! We are so excited to go!! If anyone has other tips let us know! We leave in late April :).
Yeaaaaahhhhh Canada!!! Woohoo! :D
I really like this guy.. Just real..
Thank you 🙌🏽
Great video thank you
From south texas
La Romana and Saona island is amazing.
Yesss👏🏼👏🏼
My Husband and I is watching laying here at the Royalton. He’s why are you watching this on our last day. 😂 You are 💯% on point especially about the food. Great staff safe and beautiful hotel room. I was just upset about the seaweed beach and the breakfast was horrible. Dinner was great and drinks were awesome.
Hi Tia, My family and I are heading down to the Royalton next week... Is there any advice that you could give me to make our stay as good as it can get...I hope it's not too much to ask
@Allen Jo Mathews hi I am also going to the royalton in February, I'd really appreciate it if you could remember to come back to this comment after your trip, and share your advice :)
There was seaweed on the beach at Royalton??
Im going there in the summer for vacation and its my first time out of the country
You've allayed a lot of my fears and really put my mind at ease. Thank you so so so much 😍😍😍
Very informative. I fly out there from the UK on Tuesday and stay at Lopesan resort. I booked a swim up which was incredibly cheap. I'd never be able to afford a swim up in other islands that I previously visited like St Lucia, Barbados or St Lucia. So I thought I would book one while I had a good cheap opportunity! I will take some smarter clothes for the eateries at night. Thanks for the tip. I intend to stay in the hotel. Some of the excursions look good but they get bad reviews because they are so disorganized and a complete money vacuum. Nickel and dimed to death as the Americans would say. I intend to be in that gym, in the pool, on the beach and be merry at night. No need to leave the resort,. Your videos are very informnative. Thanks
