Melia Caribe Tropical - Hotel Reviews from across the web

No title - expert review
At this American-friendly resort, prices have escalated and are now higher than at some more luxurious new properties; guest complaints have also risen. Melia bought into the Flintstone theme for two mini-clubs to appeal more to families. Golf is not unlimited, although you can purchase a golf packa...

The Meliá complex is less upscale than the Bávaro, but we prefer its innovative design. A series of bungalows is scattered within a spectacular garden, with palm trees, fountains, and real flamingos. When you tire of the grounds (if ever!), a little train will transport you over to the...

Melia Caribe Tropical - user review
First thing is first. DO NOT fall for the $70 free casino money trick by the locals that work there. They are only trying to lure you in to buy timeshare. Besides the persist nature of the locals and the way they pressure you into buying anything from timeshare to a plain ole necklace. Dont get suck...

Good value for the price - user review
First time for my wife & I at this all inclusive. A beautiful resort that was impeccably kept. Not very impressed with the communication amongst front desk personnel. We arrived at 2:00 PM; check in was at 3:00 but the front desk said they would try to find a King size bed, which is what we had paid...

Good Value for Family Vacation - user review
For a quick all inclusive vacation, Melia Caribe offers very good value. Beautiful beach with white sand. Free use of windsufers/catamarans. Nice swimming pools for children/adults. Good rooms. Decent food all day at the buffets. Short ride from local airport. Large complex, so if with kids, try to ...

It was beyond our expectations!! - user review
I have traveled to the Caribian several times and this experience was the best. The place is absolutely beautiful and lush with flamingos and peacocks walking around.

In a word, Paradise! From the moment we got to the resort to the minute we left we absolutely loved the Melia Caribe. We had no problems or delays with check in. Can't comment on the Royal Service because it was never offered as an option, which was fine with us. The pools were sparkling clean, the ...

We’d go back. - user review
It was too spread out. The fumes from the train were noxious enough that we opted to walk. It was a full 15 minute walk from our room to dinner every night and it was worth it. The food in general is pretty good. The staff were very friendly and ready to help. Traveler's tip on dining.Call at nine t...
