Nov 26, 2025Wonderful Experience
We took a trip with family & friends from October 31 to November 7. Our experience at the Hotel was wonderful very clean and very well maintened, the staff was friendly but the only problem was with the locals coming from Friday to Sunday very rude and pushy at the Buffet cutting the line to rush to get food but other than that it was fine. Going back in April 2026 we enjoyed our stay there would recommend this Hotel. Thank the staff for a wonderful stay.

Nov 24, 2025What a S*%T HOLE
Resort was over run with the local population and dirty. They were pushy and ignorant butting in line everywhere. Couldn't get near the bar for a drink, when they saw us tipping they would block 3-4 deep to keep us away. Staff were drinking with their local buddies and ignoring us. Kids were eating in the pool spitting out melon seeds into the pool. Parents changing kids diapers on the pool deck and just leaving the dirty ones laying there. Garbage dropped where ever they pleased, felt sorry for the cleanup staff. Went 2 days before the room safe was repaired. Water in the shower was barely warm. Food was decent but hard to get as locals would push in line and reach over you for everything. Couldn't get anyway near the shows/entertainment so can't comment on them. Never again will i ever waste my time with this s*%t hole. I wouldn't even give it a 1 rating but site doesn't allow anything lower.

Nov 21, 2025Great human talent, very worn out infrastructure. Pics are nice with no people, it can get very crowded!
People really do a good effort to make you feel good, 100 pesos tip will improve that in time. We were assigned a room where the sliding door in balcony would not open unless lifted and pushed strongly. Bathroom shampoo and conditioner dispenser, glued to the wall was missing the container and when asked tor repair or room change, they sent a nice guy with shampoo in a cup. The detachable shower would not stay in place to shower, and to top it all 2 cockroaches were waiting for us in the closet by the security box. Rooms air conditioning is fixed to 23 Celsius. Honestly do not know where the 5 star hotel rating comes from. After 3 day complaining, for a 2-week-stay, we were assigned another room in better conditions. There are very limited places for the "special dinner" night and you can only have 1 per day and max 2 in the week. I stayed up all night playing on the PC at the reception where there´s WI-FI, that actually works better overnight when no one´s around. It is true they do charge the least expensive night in DR at least from Air Transat packages, if you can pay little more per night I suggest you do. The beach is amazing. The food is varied and in general very good and tasty. Again muchas gracias a todo el personal que nos hicieron sentir lo mejor posible en nuestra estadia con elloos.
