One happy guest shared: “Castaways was great! They accommodated our party of 11 with no problem! Food and shots were great! After we had our private beach dinner one night, we went back two more times on our trip! Micheal was a great communicator with booking, and the waitresses and bartenders were great and fun to be around! I would for sure return! I great hidden gem!” Another happy customer commented: “The hands down, best meal and drinks we had in Punta Cana. We were staying at an all-inclusive resort and still visited Castaway’s 5 times. I had the Locos Lobstercargots each time and it was just as amazing each time. The wife loved the Ceviche and the Tropical Salad, but everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. If you’re anywhere close, this is a must visit. Michael, the owner has created and absolute jewel on the beach, like something out of the movies. Chef Lubin is an all-star that adds his own unique twist to all the creations that come out of his kitchen. See the bartenders and have them mix up some of their magic.” Our Restaurant and Bar Awards strive to recognise and reward establishments that are doing more than improving the industry, they are truly setting the bar incredibly high for the future of hospitality to come. We wish Castaways all the best as it continues to please a myriad of guests each and every day.
