Overall I enjoyed myself but accommodations are in need of updating and could have been much better. I would rate the Vista Sol resort in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic

The flights were very good
The car rental was very good
The Croke Park Hotel was nice but not centrally located
The B and Bs were not good, the pictures on the web were outdated and not a true representation of the rooms. The bathrooms were very small and outdated at both Golf Links View (no view) and the Tynte House (no water pressure)

The accommodations in Westport were fine.

Just to be upfront we did not stay at Fitzgeralds, we were delayed and just got our own accommodations.

Very convenient to have everything packaged! Was a whirlwind to see so much so fast! The London TootBus didn't work out due to traffic and their time constraints for breaks and stops. So I wouldn't book that part again. The Alex hotel was the best location in Dublin and the staff went above and beyond!
