"This three-mile stretch of white sand is the only public beach at the gated Puntacana Resort & Club. Even so, non-guests can only reach the beach after dining at the resort’s oceanfront Playa Blanca Restaurant. It’s worth it, though, as the calm turquoise water is ideal for swimming, kayaking, and catamaran sailing. A mesh barrier keeps seaweed out of the swimming and beach areas, ensuring pristine water and sand as far as the eye can see."

So we went to just spend the day at the beach, not necessarily sit at the restaurant. Before getting to the Beach, you have to go through security at Punta Cana Resort and already prepay $50 per person (which goes to consumption). When we got to the beach, there were no beach chairs at all available. It took very long for them to arrange something and management was very slow to react. Francis (one of the beach butlers), however, really took care of us and managed to get the chairs. From there on it was really nice and we almost forgot about the wait to be able to lay down. The food was amazing, really great cocktails, and one of the nicest beaches in Punta Cana. Little to no seaweed and it felt very clean, you can walk along the beach, and it’s a very secure area.

As always, the open air beach vibe equals the quality on the menu. Try something new at each visit and you won't be disappointed.

Beautiful family friendly restaurant. The staff is very helpful and welcoming. The dishes are a bit on the expensive side but they are well executed and presented. We especially enjoyed the ceviche, shrimp cocktail and the pecao frito.

Such a nice place to relax. Beach loungers and umbrellas are available if you eat at the restaurant. Prices are reasonable if you factor this in. Food is delicious. The staff was very nice, hello to Alejandro and Juan Carlos. One server overcharged us for a drink and came back to apologize for his mistake. We will return to Playa Blanca restaurant!

The beach is beautiful - it’s the only reason we went to the restaurant. You do not get umbrellas and chairs guaranteed with your reservation and cost minimum. Service was really slow and food was missing items in the description. Fried fish was the best plate that any of us ate.

Nice quiet beach, not too busy with some bars and restaurants available. Calm waves and soft white sand with tiny little crabs in the water aggressively cute. The only inconvenient is the seaweed which is present sometimes after an offshore storm, excepting this is an excellent beach.

We loved the catamaran, they really made it fun for everyone. They even stop in the center of the water and let you hang out in like 4 feet of water. They provide drinks. Side by side excursion is what it's called. The staff was super great!!!!
