Our criteria for this vacation was to find a resort that allowed 5 people in one room, had a beach that was easy for children to swim on (no riptide), had some kids activities, and was a direct flight from our home. The Melia Caribe fit the bill. We stayed in one of the family suites, which had a king... more

We just returned from 8 days at The Melia Caribe (Aug. 1 - 8). The resort is big, bustling and, in many ways, beautiful. Unfortunately, the service does not remotely match the quality of the facilities. Royal Service is anything but royal -- average would be a better description. We encountered check-in difficulties, maintenance issues, transportation issues, rudeness ... you... more

The only positive thing I can say about this facility is that the grounds are well maintained...and now for the bad news: 1.Arrival and check-in took 45 minutes. No one seemed to know how to use the computer or who was responsible for what. 2.Room upgrades that we booked were ignored and the # of beds requested were incorrect 3.... more
