Anyone been to Punta Cana?

We've been there, but we stayed at the Punta Cana Excellence. It was incredible.
I never heard of the Be Live Grand, but here's the thing with the places we bused through, they're kind of maintenance deferred. They're not bad by any means, just not as clean and manicured as everything here.
If you go, you need to take a couple hundred dollar bills for tipping. It's a custom throughout the country, everyone tips for everything. Literally.
No, I've never used Vacation Express, either.

I stayed at the Majestic Elegance last May.
In the top two or three there.
Impossible not to have a great time.
Best way to describe it, a cruise on land.
Didn't care to do much in the area and just chose to stay at the property.
We did the Elegance Club, for adults only, private butler, etc. what a bang for the buck.
Also, tip the bartenders by the pool real well and watch how a special drawer with the top shelf booze becomes available to you.
Don't forget the mamajuana. They swear it has "stiffening" properties for men.
Have to agree with them.

No more early morning drinking and posting for me.
Seems I repeat myself.
