Cofresi Palm Beach & Spa Resort

Was put in building 202. Extremely loud traffic. They were nice anough to move us to building 305. Bigger better room. Housekeeping is loud outside all the rooms every morning early. Beach and pools very nice. Not alot of activities to do during the day that we could find. Food was ok, Mexican and seafood restaurants were not good. Brazilian was neat. Drinks were good generally. vip beach was the cats pajamas. Cool servers, bars, sushi bar. Somehow we all got really sick. Our friends got sick and spent their 3 last days in the bed and the bathroom - and still are sick.. My husband and I got sick the last day and still are. We didnt drink the water so I'm not sure why. Puking, runs, lightheaded, respiratory issues. A little bit of everything. I have been to 7 other resorts in the Dominican..... I dont know if I'll go back.

I could talk about my endlessly flowing toilet, leaking shower, and total lack of hot water, but i can also tell you about paper thin walls, security guards focused on playing phone games, and multiple areas staying flooded after an hour rain for over a day. Other guests relayed issued with broken cabinets, missing bathroom doors and total lack of customer service. Even after pointing out noise issues, the resort refused to move us. The other parts of lifestyle resorts appeared much better cared for but similar issues were commented on. If you can get past the trailer park accommodations, you can have a great time, assuming the staff doesnt get insulted by tatoos that demonstrateyou have disposable income that would "buy them a plantation" So in summary, the sand and the beach are fantastic, but since the resort geta their cash up front, you are at the mercy of cruel, unhappy and indifferent staff with no actual recourse. Its also critical to note that all inckusive includes little. No room service, the room mini fridge was empty, and even wifi is a whole separate fee.

Second time staying here but different side of the resort. Still not impress, too outdated with poor quality food and service. The beach this time around was clean which was nice to see! Overall you get what you pay for and the cost was inexpensive

We had an unfortunately disappointing stay at cofresi palm. It was a very cheap trip and we definitely got what we paid for: cold food, watered down drinks, sugar water for juice, people trying to sell you things every step. These are all pretty common for all inclusive, but our stay seemed extremely bad compared to others we’ve been to. We had a bad first day since we couldn’t move into our room till 4pm, then once we got there the toilet didn’t work and there was no hot water. And we found out the same was happening to the entire building. The resort smells of sewage because there is exposed RAW SEWAGE running through it. There are several sections to the resort, cofresi is the worst, lifestyle is better, and then there is VIP which is all extra and you can’t access it unless you’re a member. But sadly it shows you what you COULD be experiencing which makes your stay at cofresi seem even worse. Also there’s NO WIFI, or room service and you can’t bring food back to your room so you’re kinda stuck eating terrible buffet food and hanging by the dingy pools. Making reservation for dinner is next to impossible, probably the most frustrating thing there. So we ended up leaving the resort and finding a lovely restaurant named Charros right across the street, charros is highly recommended, cofresi palm beach is not.
