    Beach has a red flag, because the weather. Check in takes 1h and 15 minutes because a lot of guest and only two desk front employees. They has variety of food options, but the taste of foot was not good in lunch and dinner, maybe the oil the use to cook meals. it cause me indigestion. The bread's quality was poor, the do not have croissant option. Alcoholic drinks , bas quality, only local brands Too many guest, the service in main restaurant was very slow They do not have spa with climatized water (hot or warm) the night show a tainos theater was poor, only 4 dancers + 3 men dancers.

    I know my stay was on the last weekend of the year but this hotel knew how many guests they had (it was fully booked) and they were not ready for it, short on staff, short on beach towels, lack of attention for requests from the guests, just to name a few. The food was not impressive.

    This property is just another resort by the beach.

    It's a 3-star at best - avoid if you want peace and quiet
    • Business trip
    • Couple
    • Standard Double Room
    • Stayed 13 nights

    Where do I even start!!? - It's not 5 stars, our room was a 3-star at best. The room smelled of mould, the floors weren't mopped, there was hair in the bathtub and sink, the wardrobes were all broken, phone wasn't working, they only give you a large towel each (no face or floor towels so the floor is constantly wet after the shower) and there was a rusty nail on the floor that I stepped on. - It's noisy ALL THE DAMN TIME!!! I don't know why, but locals seem to think that if the music isn't bursting your eardrums then its not worth playing. We couldn't rest at all in the evenings because it was like having a theatre in our room. - Too overcrowded. Especially at weekends when they let outsiders in. - Are you vegetarian? Good luck... they mix spoons between all plates and use the same bowls for everything they prepare, so was pulling meat out of my dishes every single day (thankfully I'm not allergic to anything!). - The Japanese restaurant wins first prize for the absolute worst sushi I've ever had in my entire life, and I thought it couldn't get any worse than what my 5 year old cousin made... but they even beat that! Too many other points that I don't have time to write now. Honestly it's not worth it, in fact I would say don't come to DR in the first place unless you enjoy doing nothing but laying on the beach, because there's absolutely nothing to do here and its all too expensive. We came from London, where it's certainly not cheap, but found DR insanely expensive.

    + The food was better than I expected, though it didn't have much flavour. + The staff was friendly

    The rooms are not in their best state, they are outdated and need a renovation urgently. The first room we got was in a catastrophic state, there were no shower gel and no shampoos, some part of the the bath had fallen off and was just laying there so it was not possible to shower. I am sure nobody revised this room in a long time. It was really far from the main area as well. We went to ask for a new room and we got it. It was better, close to the main area and with the necessary equipment provided but still not what you expect when you book a 4 star beach resort like this and pay a lot of money. There was a slight combination of smell of old furniture and humidity. After that initial shock of seeing in what condition the rooms are in, I still spent a lovely time there, I didnt spend too much time in the room anyway.

    The hotel has a gorgeous beach and the outside area is great as well - the whole complex is really huge.

    The cleaning staff were good people but to noisy, it was impossible to be in the room at the time they were cleaning. the theme restaurants were bad in their food presentation specially The Paris Type, there was no Paris there. the structure of the hotel is old and was not in his best shape. Some of the waiters were in a really bad mood for an all inclusive hotel.

    I didn’t have time i

    So due to the hurricane that hit DR I stayed at a sister hotel and everything was splendid, from the people to the food. We left the room early in the morning and came back to clean sheets and towels. We had a blast and hardly had time to go outside of the the hotel because there was so much to do.
