I came here for dinner and was blown away by the meal I had. Ipanema is a Brazilian style restaurant with an open view. Try dinner at Ciao for me and report back!
I can’t speak personally to the dinner menu, but have heard incredible things. I had a plate of pancakes, fruits, pastries, ham, and eggs but that's just a small sample of the buffet options. There are TONS of options from this buffet-style restaurant. I only had time to visit Ciao for breakfast one morning and would highly recommend it. This is a Mediterranean and Lebanese spot perfect for a quick meal or something to snack on. I had appetizers before dinner at Bistro Med one evening while I waited for my dinner reservation at another restaurant on the property. I highly recommend that Oreo cheesecake or the chicken fingers. The room service menu is on the small side, but has enough to satisfy you for any meal at any time of day (or night). Need I say more? There were a couple of times during my stay when I just wanted a slice of Oreo cheesecake at 2am or to have breakfast in bed. I’m just here to help you weigh your options and make the best of your stay at the Hard Rock in Punta Cana. With 10 restaurants, 23 bars, 13 pools, and unlimited options for activities, you really can’t go wrong. You read about my personal experience at The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana, but now it’s time to plan YOUR trip.
