I've read elsewhere that the 4.5* Punta Cana resort was identified as Riu Palace Bavaro. It is surprising since Riu Palace Bavaro tends to be considered a 4 rather than 4.5 stars property by most sites...

I have used hotwire many, many times, and am aware how it works generally. I have used the research on this site many times successfully for other locations as well. I played around with various dates, and there is always only 1 4.5 stars All-inclusive resort that comes up with the same amenities. The price goes from $142-192 per night, but I suspect it is the same hotel. There are only a few 4.5 stars Punta Cana hotels to begin with. Still looking for anyone who have booked a hotwire 4.5 star All-Inclusive hotel in the past. Please tell us what you got.

I am doing research (not ready to book just yet) whether it makes sense to utilize hotwire for travel to Punta Cana. There is a 4.5 star all-inclusive resort that comes up for $142 for 2 adults, which is a great price. I assume 4.5 stars all-inclusive is the highest all-inclusive resorts available (Apple has 6 stars, but their rating system is different). 4.5-star All-inclusive hotel in Punta Cana Region - copying from Hotwire (random dates in October): Resort Beachfront Property Casino Food and Beverages Included Premium Brand Beverages Included A la Carte Dining Options Water Sports/Ocean Activities Included Evening Entertainment Included Daily Activities Included Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center High-Speed Internet Access Golf Nearby Tennis Nearby Free Parking Free Breakfast In-room accessibility Accessible bathroom All-Inclusive Any idea which resort this could be? Generally, do you have reports of any 4.5 star all-inclusive winning bids in Punta Cana ? The fact that this resort is presumably highest rated, and has a casino narrows it down to only a few choices in Punta Cana. But they are usually priced significantly higher. Afraid to take the plunge.
