The hotel it's ok they need to work more on the rooms they have too much humidity, there was not hot water. The staff are great we love Paulino and skinny. We all feel safe the shows are nice. Everything was nice and clean. We found a taxi driver that we love it, and we recommend. He is very honest and safe to drive around with him he was our driver for 3 days the best. Super satisfied. His name it's Jose Manuel taxi services 829-797-4222

Oct 27, 2025Amazing Vacation!!
As an avid traveller who has visited over 70+ destinations in the world and have been to the Dominican Republic 4 times, I would like to give you an honest review. Do not listen to all the bad reviews as everyone’s experience is different. Here is my review: The resort is beautiful and the grounds are very clean/well maintained. The main buffet Larimar has plenty of and fresh options daily for meat eaters, pescatarians and vegetarians. The sports bar (Legends) played most sports games daily including the World Series (let’s go Blue Jays). They had lots of pub like food and drinks. The beach club snack bar also had good options, we enjoyed the Dominican plates. Shoutout to Paulino who makes the best Maracuya Mojitos and always smiling. We were in building 2 which is luxury suites and it was modern and very clean. We upgraded to a swim up suite in building 3 during our stay and it was well worth it! I did get a chance to see the regular suites and it was clean with Caribbean resort room decor. Definitely upgrade your stay and you want more of luxury feel and room. Rooms are cleaned daily and room fridges are stocked daily. There was only 1 morning where the water in the shower was a bit cold but maintenance fixed this issue right away. Given that it is rain season (which you should know prior to booking) there was a few hours of rain here and there but still enjoyable! They offered umbrellas and the pool entertainment still went on! The entertainment staff were amazing! Shoutout to Skinny, Blacky Boy and Shampoo. Blondie and Karol G were so kind and fun as well. There are themed activities and events daily! Including yoga and Pilates at the beach. We loved the coconut and beach party. We got a chance to check out all 3 à la carte restaurants; Teppnyaki, Italian and Steakhouse. All delicious with great options. The gym had everything we needed. There is also a pizza place, gelato and cafe on the property, which is very cool and included in your stay. The ladies at reception Yendra and Michel were always so nice and kind. It is a resort that offers stay at 1 and play at 2 meaning you can eat, drink and enjoy the pool/entertainment at the Playabachata resort next door (but not the other way around). Senator is catered more to adults and Playabachata to families with children. The beach is private and the spa is wonderful!!! Shoutout Ingrid! I’ve seen complaints about bugs/mosquitoes you are in the Caribbean where it is HOT, that is normal. I’ve been to 6 continents and that should be the least of your worries. Please note: One pool was closed for renovations but there is 6 others. The only con for myself was that Friday and Saturday was very busy as locals visit the resort for the weekend. Otherwise, zero complaints! You’re on vacation, enjoy yourself!!! Thank you Senator staff!!! I will be back very soon with a group!

Oct 24, 2025Disappointed. Not a 5 star
The good: - the beautiful grounds, beach and pools ( although the main pool was to be reopened on the 20th and is still not) - the servers in sports bar (Christy) - the message therapist (Alexandra) The not so good: -the room and building no. 2 - so called luxury suite - no hot water all week - sometimes no water at all - several power outages - cleanliness and maintenance issues - TV didn’t work - called 2x to get it fixed - inconsistent service (had to call for drinking water) - cockroaches - toilet paper is awful - wine is poor quality, esp. the white, comes out of bigplastic jugs I sent an email to reservations outlining our discontent, but never got an acknowledgement. Attached are some photos.
