The All Inclusive Dominican Republic Resort Deal
As far as I’m concerned, this is a public service announcement. Lifestyle Tropical is a huge and sprawling All Inclusive Dominican Republic resort featuring beautiful 4-star + grounds, over a dozen different pools (some with waterfalls), lots of activities, and quite decent, although NOT gourmet, food in over a dozen restaurants. I’ve been to that place number of time, and I have written about it extensively — they should hire me to be their enthusiastic spokesperson, but they will not because…
They sell timeshare. You are not required to attend a presentation, but they are sure hoping you are. Remember that, and you will be fine. A gentle No, thank you and a smile have yet to kill anyone.
I’ve been there three times, I think. First and second time we paid $12 and $15 per person and they put us in a junior suite. It was fantastic. Third time we paid $19 per person, and they put us in an old, lousy hotel room that, yet, failed to spoil our vacation. I guess they had abandoned all the hope to sell Timmy and me their timeshare because they haven’t approached us even once! We still enjoyed ourselves — the room be damned.

This deal is better!
A similar Groupon deal shows up every now and then, and this is much better. Yes it’s more expensive (and they now charge about $5 in taxes and fee per day), but you get much more than a basic room. I will paste the links to my previous reviews so you decide if it’s worth it or not.
All Inclusive Dominican Republic $50 a Day Resort: VIP Beach Jacuzzi
Included in all-inclusive stays:
- All meals and drinks at onsite locations, including local beers, premium spirits, house wine with dinner, juices, and soft drinks

And did you get my bit about top shelf liquor? Just checking.

How to make this deal better
Ebates has 15% off 250 stores including Groupon.
I had my doubts whether or not the cash back applies to Groupon Getaways, so I shot an email to Ebates asking for clarification, and it seems it does.
Thank you for your email. Currently, Groupon and Groupon Getaways are offering 15% Cash Back. The only exclusions would be deals that are sold and fulfilled through a third party website. As long as you are able to click through and complete your order on the Groupon website, it will be eligible to earn 15% Cash Back.
So if you do get 15% back, the price goes down to $42.50 PPPN plus about $5 taxes and fees. I’d say $96 for two people in a suite at a beautiful resort is not a deal, it’s a steal!
You’re welcome! 🙂
