Sep 10, 2025Short vacation
About 45 min from the airport. Fast check in. No welcome drinks. Short walk to building 1036 closest to pool, snack bar and lobby. Key for room not a magnetic card . 2 double bed and twin bed for our family of five. Comfortable. Room small no iron board or iron in room. Safe and mini fridge with 1 bottle of water, 2 pepsi and 2 7up. It was Not replesnished you have to ask the front desk for water and drinks. bathroom with tub and handheld shower head. no bathroom fan or window for air. lots of ants in the bathroom floor not sure where they were coming from we had no food in the bathroom or the room? Might be from humidity or old wood from the door frame ? bring ants traps!! Buffet - food was great snack bar great hamburgers, hot dogs, fries , fruits, beers good variety. Restaurants- Italian and steak house a la carte. good Beach - beautiful. lots of chairs and palm trees for shade. may need to bring water shoes small coral / rocks at the beach Pool - we arrived the weekend with many locals invading the pools. Not sure if pool was safe to swim in. overcrowded with locals we stayed at the beach didn't go to the pool for that reason. No wifi in rooms only around pool area and at the lobby. Beware- if you don't want to waste your time they will invite you for a breakfast or lunch at the senator to invest and upgrade to ultimate leisure club. Politely decline instead of wasting 90 min and + of your vacation. Overall good experience. Will return at a good price.

Birthday Time!
Went for a nice solo getaway trip for my birthday this year, and it was AWESOME! They got with just the name “Bachata” but the staff was friendly, loving and excellent. Great energy and people to make friends with! Activities during the day and nightly shows were perfect! Would only say that maybe more beach activities would be cool, but I am definitely going back!!

Great vacation
I booked a 3 day stay at Playa Bachata. I arrived there around 12pm yes i know check in is at 3pm but personal ride issues we just got there early and either way we were checked in just not given our room key which we where told would be provided at 3pm so in the meantime we where able to explore while we waited by 1pm we ate food at this place was always good by the way. Now come to 3pm i am now in this hurdle of about 80 people theres no direction in line or where to stand, all i need is a key for my room i must of waited an hour standing in line just to be told "my room is not ready" i then speak to someone who is a supervisor and i tell her i arrived early how much longer do i have to wait for my room to " be ready" apparently they never made the arrangements for my room when i arrived early so apart from the hour in line i also waited an extra 40 min after, i would say check in was one of the things i hated the most because its unorganized. Other than that me and my family had an amazing time the beach is beutiful the staff is also very friendly and attentive, they are constantly cleaning, food variety was amazing, im not a drinker but there was a lot of that too lol, the entertainment at night is also great live singing great performers, the kid entertainment is very nicely done in a way that the kids are included i thought that was nice. And just relaxing, which is what i needed as well.
