Review of Now Larimar Punta Cana Resorts...

Where to start?! We visited now larimar for 12 day...

Where to start?! We visited now larimar for 12 days as a family vacation/wedding/honeymoon with a total of 38 people all adults except one 8 year old girl. As soon as we got off the shuttle bus we were greeted by the bell boys - Alexis C who immediately helped us with our bags and directed us where to go next. We walked into the lobby where we were immediately greeted again by the concierge and all handed a nice cold drink which was a very nice and appreciated touch after a day of traveling. We were then whisked away to the preferred club as we had chosen to upgrade to the at for our wedding/honeymoon. In the mean time our families were taken care of at the front desk . The preferred club was very nice and clean and everyone was very friendly and accommodating. There were snack and drinks both alcoholic and non alcoholic. Once Cesar arrived he had it arranged for me to leave my wedding dress there since i was uncomfortable leaving it out front with the other luggage. Cesar then showed us around and then to the preferred club restaurant castaways (which was very good and had the best breakfast and french fries) and said we should eat and then our room would be ready. Which when we were done eating, it was! Cesar escorted us to our room and long behold my wedding dress was already there laying on the bed. :) i couldnt be more thankful Cesar took care of my dress while we settled in. Once Cesar showed us around some more he let us be while we got settled in and met back up with our families. Throughout the trip we did one of catamaran cruises, dealt with Santo at the seapros hut. He gave us the beat prices for the booze cruise and we got a private boat since we had over 20 people which was awesome! Well worth it since it seems like they really pack the boat other times to the point you cant move. We also did the banana boat and parasailing. Another couple that came with us were also apart of the preferred club. Their butlers name was Nelson and he was awesome as well. Our friends and ourselves had ordered 4 cabanas total that week which were extra and Nelson always made it happen and really took care of our friends and us at times even though he wasnt our butler. We spent a lot of time around the pool and always woke up early to get a shaded seat. Karen in the wedding department took care of everything from top to bottom, beginning to end and start to finish with the wedding. She helped ensure i covered every detail that comes with planning a wedding. Especially a destination wedding. Which is GREATLY appreciated because i was so nervous not knowing what everything was going to look like/turn out like. our families and friends left after spending a week with us. My husband(at this point) and i then stayed an extra 4 days as our honeymoon. Cesar was able to get us a beautifully upgraded room with an outside jacuzzi tub. He personally assisted us in moving all of our belongings from one room to the next. He took special note to what my husband and myself were always drinking and always checked the fridge and then with us if we wanted more of whatever it was refilled. Cesar knew it was our wedding week/honeymoon and on many occasions he left flower petals in our room, drew such nice warm baths with bubbles and champagne and more rose petals in the tub. It made you feel like you were in a fairytale. It was such an awesome feeling. He also labeled our door for wedding couple and honeymoon which was a cute touch. He also filled our outdoor jacuzzi for us twice when we went to dinner and he had it fulled, hot, with rose petals and champagne and chocolate covered strawberries for when we returned. Our trip was already great, but having Cesar as our butler made everything ONE MILLION times better and enjoyable. You really felt pampered and well taken care if because of Cesar. Not sure when we ll be back, but when we do come back we will definitely be requesting Cesar.
