Club Med Punta Cana

Recently I had the opportunity to explore and discover the newly renovated Club Med Punta Cana Village. Since several of us were able to go to Club Med Punta Cana, I decided to write about the food.
Club Med Punta Cana offers you three different restaurants and eating areas: Two buffet style restaurants and one specialty - with a beautiful oceanfront dining area.
This Hispaniola is beautifully appointed on the oceanfront, with large open air windows. In all the restaurants there is a section for moms with small children, called the Baby Corner. Here, moms can find everything needed for infants and toddlers. There are microwave ovens, small refrigerators stocked with baby food and milk and bottle warmers. Club Med makes it so easy for parents to have everything at their fingertips for feeding their little tots – I was amazed at the various food selections for babies. The Baby Corner is offered at both La Samana and Hispaniola Restaurants.
The buffet restaurant offers several different serving stations with everything from Salad bars, to hamburgers and fries, to local delights such as Dominican rice and pastas for lunch, and fruits, hot and cold cereals, several styles of eggs, sausage links and crispy bacon for breakfast. I was amazed to see how families were enjoying themselves, from toddlers on up, at the dining tables.
For Dinner we went to La Samana and I can't say enough about Club Med's buffet presentation. There were several different food stations from salads to bread (Club Med is famous for their white chocolate bread). The first station you stumble upon at Samana is the dessert one. Now typically I am not one that does a lot of desserts. I like looking at them but seldom will I indulge. But at Club Med Punta Cana, let me tell you, the desserts were to die for! I took one dessert back to my room and munched on for a couple of days! Another night we found a Chocolate fondue section with bananas, strawberries, melons, and pineapple. MMMM---delicious. One of my co-workers mentioned how there was this one little boy that sitting by the fondue station covered with chocolate – I bet that was a sight to see. House wine, soft drinks, juices, beer, and ice cream were all also available at no extra cost. Dinner was offered between 6:30pm and 10:00pm. La Samana is located right next to the main lobby and pools and truly has an endless amount of meal options.
Last but not least would be Celeste Grill casual service – a snack bar that serves small snacks. My favorite was the Greek and Caesar's salads and the chicken kabob. It’s located on the oceanfront, right next to the water sports, allowing guests to just sit, relax, and watch guests participate in Club Med’s non-motorized water sports. Right next to the grill is the beach bar, always serving up some favorite beverages.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – Club Med delivers. The food was delicious and the GO's were always there with a smile. Did I mention that there were even Gracious Organizers eating with the guests – how's that for excellent customer service!? The restaurants were in prime locations and had awesome views. I had a ball and would go back in a heartbeat. I have absolutely no complaints and trust that you won't either…
