The resort is beautiful and well-kept on the outside, but some of the rooms—especially on the first floor—feel outdated and have an unpleasant odor. I’d recommend requesting a higher-floor room for a better experience. Also, be cautious when it rains; the floors can get very slippery.

It was okay, would I go back no.
If you go to this resort download hidden camera on your phone.Prior to leaving, when you get to your room, check it. It detected a camera and a voice Detector. Then, I went to my friend's room same thing. With the voice detector it apparently heard my alarm go off on my phone. An hour later, I checked both rooms and it didn't come back on. I check daily until I left. Other than that, food was good resort was nice. The beach was terrible and there was no entertainment at the pools or at night. Except for a d j playing in the lobby.

Dec 02, 2025Relaxation undone by constant sales pitches
Upon arrival at Dreams, we checked in and requested an upgrade to Preferred so we could access the adults-only pool. The upgrade was $50 per person per day, which added up to $700 for both of us over seven days. After checking in, we went to our room and immediately noticed several issues. The door would not close unless slammed, the lock was broken, and the door itself was warped. The balcony door was also broken and would not lock. On top of that, the room phone did not work. These may seem like small inconveniences, but they already set our experience back. This is where I strongly recommend that you do not stay at this property. At check-in, we were told to go to the front desk to activate a “key” for discounts. Our reservation had mentioned resort coupons, so we assumed this was related. It was not. Instead, Hyatt pulled us into a room for 45 minutes to pitch their credit cards. We left extremely frustrated. Other guests told us they were offered a 90-minute presentation in exchange for a free massage, but we were not given that option. Regardless, who wants to be pressured into a sales pitch while on vacation? Overall, this was not the experience we had hoped for. The resort staff, bartenders, and housekeeping team were wonderful and very kind, but the management practices left us disappointed. Unless you are already a Hyatt member, I do not recommend this hotel. Be prepared for constant upselling and money haggling that takes away from the relaxation you came for.
