Feb 09, 2026Dreams
Dreams is a nice property on the beach. There were not enough lounge beach chairs, need to get up early to secure one. long wait times at the specialty restaurants cannot make a reservation. Nice sandy beach when the the tide was out, could not swim or snorkel off the beach, too rocky, but when the tide was out provided a nice walk on the sandy shoreline.

Feb 09, 2026Great for the price. Beautiful resort
It was a beautiful place and very safe outside the resort. Very understaffed. Small buffet yet never went hungry. The food was amazing that they served.

Feb 08, 2026Wonderful, amazing experience that can be much more
The great advantage staying in Dreams Playa Bonita was the city background, havind the Canal, Casco Viejo, the new downtown. Also the other spots of the country are special. The hotel is fine, with good structure, services are very good and the staff is very helpful and proactive. The missing points were the breakfast and lunch, whose were very limited and not with good taste nor diversity.
