good choice, felt compelled contribute trip advisor valuable resource, giving considering majestic colonial booking trip, hope review helps make decision stay majestic colonial.my wife couple stayed 8-11-07 8-17-07. relaxation trip opportunity spend quality time dear friends, friend scoured internet including trip advisor make best decision sight unseen all-inclusive resort stay punta cana, finding vast majority reviews positive using gut feeling booked trip majestic colonial travel agent best deal.first like address unfavorable reviews majestic received know slight doubt placed decision-making process, looking particular vacation idea good vacation not necessarily coincide else__Ç_é_, fairly well-to-do individual does fair share business leisure travel stress majestic good property, based experiences general travel resort certainly meet exceed travelers expectations, idea quality service level consider excellent regularly stay places like waldorf-astoria manhattan various ritz carlton properties bellagio las vegas properties caliber, not bragging trying let know experience used to.with said surroundings accommodations majestic colonial did not disappoint, fact pleasantly surprised aesthetics property, opinion feeling having minor issues physical appearance quality resort likely nearly impossible, hate blunt complaints read reviews petty can__Ç_é_ help

you__Ç_éÈe probably suited country club want consider lowering standards realistic.now no way saying majestic perfect way, feel majority concerns presented attributable cultural differences environmental national economic influences, try address commonly referred majestic.as infamous regularly occurring comments bathroom layout different used home u.s. stayed junior suite direct pool access spacious room basically open space, bathroom area room walk door, double vanity dual sinks wall room, looking sinks jacuzzi tub space opens bedroom/sitting area, left sinks left wall toilet shower, frosted glass door shower quite spacious marble floors tile match marble floors entire room, toilet similar stall public restroom not room public setting, wife needed extended stay restroom person did choose patio minutes, opinion not deal breaker reviewers feel, just think people need complain about.the food beverage situation quite acceptable, food quite middle-of-the-road quality sitting acceptable large buffet, approach buffet mental picture hotels upper quality las vegas not disappointed, breakfast decent good selections, looked days, lunch dinner acceptable liked day not available day, rotate featured items day did staple items available day, food really subjective matter consider somewhat picky eater did just fine, mentioned specially-themed restaurants choose steakhouse beach probably best, chateaubriand truly good rivaling nicer steakhouses to.finally wish acknowledge level service majestic, experience vast majority staff exceptions extremely
