please know that if you are going to this resort they do not have washcloths or face cloths so take your own with you...Room was ok..it was clean...however to find the light switch to the lights was hard..
they are on the side of the table that the lamps are on..one of our lamps you had to wiggle to get it to even work....the beds were just beds so if you are looking for luxury this isnt the place for that..
the pillows were small with alot of lumps in them...we asked for an extra pillow two times on our 3 night stay and never saw them although was told that someone would bring it. The food was not so great..not alot of taste....best dinner for us was the italian resturant..great service and food had a little better taste. The hot tubs/jacuzzis by the pool we expected to be able to sit in those in the evening but once we got to them they were cold. The rooms are not very soundproof as it sounded like the people next to us were in our bathroom. The beach was the best part of the trip..very soft white sand...although if you are coming in from the US and are a family be aware that there are alot of topless women...Please also be aware that there is little english spoken...you may want to catch up on your spanish or french before heading down there...and take alot of one dollar bills for tips...even though it is all inclusive they do like to put their hands out for tips....and when shopping alot of the places will tell you that they do not have any ones for return change (ex: we paid $56 for 7 t-shirts handed them $60 but they didnt give us US change back as they stated they had no ones)...The sun is very hot...take plenty of sunscreen ....hope your experience is better than ours...

Customer service at the resort does not exist, when we asked for towles, or extra soap they would tell us in 5 minutes and they never show up.
The bedding, blankets,e.t.c. was old and worn, there were 3 tiny very soft pillows in a king size bed.
My husband's brand new polo shirt with the tag still on was taken from the room, we reported the incident but they came up with nothing, if you do stay at this resort, please lock up your valuables in the safe box.
We've been to Punta Cana 3 times prior to this, we never had any problems.. the staff at the resort needs to be educated in customer service and learn to speak some decent English.

The food was nothing special, leftovers from dinner were made into a different dish for next day's lunch.
The specialty restaurants were anything but specialty, we went to the Italian restaurant, (Mama Mia) and ordered white wine, the waiter comes by and before I could stop him he re-filled my glass with red wine, the waiter had no clue what he did wrong..
At the Chinese specialty restaurant I hadn't finished all of my soup, and when the waiter came to take the bowl he was looking inside and stirring the left over soup with the spoon, I was mortified, I thought he might pour it back into the pot, that incident was very creepy and weird.
The maids were more polite than the customer service at the front desk, they deserve a tip every day.
My husband and I have been to most of the islands in the Caribbean, our stay at the Caribe Club Princess in Punta Cana was the worst.

After we booked, we looked at some of the reviews and the mixed comments gave us some concerns. We needn't have worried.

We travelled with Thomsons and had an excellent flight. It was on time and their extra legroom is great. Transfers were a bit slow, and the other hotels we dropped off at were huge. Ours was a bit smaller, but not much.

The reception area is big and open and airy and efficient. Then we had the train ride down to the apartments. This is nearly half a mile through the mangroves, but didn't take long.

The room we had was conveniently placed, quite near the restaurants, pools and beach. We had some teething troubles with the air conditioning and with a water leak in the bathroom, but these were resolved reasonably quickly once reported to guest relations.

The main buffet restaurant served an extensive range of dishes which should be enough to satisfy most palates. The biggest difficulty was getting a cup of coffee at breakfast - they always seemed to be running out of cups! They also didn't quite seem to grasp the concept that you need hot! water to make tea.

The a la carte restaurants were a varied bunch - from excellent Italian and Mexican to poor Chinese, with Brazilian and Dominican somewhere in the middle. One problem we found was that apart from the lobby bar (nearly half a mile away) there was really nowhere around the restaurants to sit and have a quiet drink before and after your meal.

The beach was lovely - and was kept exceedingly clean. The animation team was really aimed at a much younger audience than us, but they put in a lot of effort. The multi-lingual evening entertainment was mixed in quality - but nevertheless popular.

Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our two weeks here and would recommend it to anyone.

First off, I will start by saying to ignore all of the negative comments made previously, such as 'rubbish bedding' etc.

The resort is a 4star & I would agree it is a 4star. Remember, you are in the carribean, not a posh area of london or new york.
When my boyfriend & I arrived, we were pleasantly surprised at loveliness of the reception area- open, clean, cool and well equipped with a cash machine and internet services.
We were greeted by friendly staff who immediately offered us cold beverages,
Checking in was easy, and the bell boys personally deliver your luggage right to your door.

In my opinion, the room was great. Ok it didnt have luxury chandeliers or a four poster bed..but hey, your there on holiday to enjoy the beach, not there to sit in your room all day.
The rooms were spotlessly clean and tidy. The beds were extremely comfortable with clean bedding EVERYDAY and clean towels EVERYDAY if u wished.
The fridge was stocked up everyday with kool beverages by the maids, who also left very sweet designs of swans made my towels.
the A/C made the room lovely & cool when u came back from a very hot day outside. The bathroom was superb- spacious and clean.

The resort itself was lovely. The grounds are like one big secret garden with beautiful winding paths, flowers, music and the odd peacock! but they are harmless. It makes great for a nice morning/evening walk. or, if you dont fancy walking, then hop on the mini buses that stop and drop u off where u want!

The buffet restaurent- i cannot fault. They always had a great selection, freshly cooked with plenty to choose from. They even had theme nights- foods representing different countries. Anything from chips and pizza, to rice, pasta, various meats,, vegetables and dishes. The deserts were fab too- cakes, ice-cream, fresh fruit etc.
The waiters themselves are excellent too- topping up your drink with a fresh one before your current drink runs out!
While i was there, i ate in the mexican restaurent and the chinese- both were absolutely faultless- a great choice. Be warned though- u must book these early in the morning as they are very popular!!

and finally..the beach..again...i cannot fault this. Gorgeous white sand, not crowded, plenty of sunbeds where u can go and be alone. No one bothers or disturbs you, and you are absolutely fine to go swim in the sea which is beautiful.

I would definately recommend this hotel, espcially for those who are after a simple yet pleasant resort which is clean, tidy and well equipped, with friendly staff who will do anything for you.
If you are after 'The Ritz hotel' or some other posh hotel, then your coming to the wrong country for the wrong reasons. Caribe club princess represents everything about the dominican: Beautiful, pleasant, and relaxed, providing u with the perfect carribean holiday.
