The room wasnt that great. First day after check in no water was in the toilet. The bathroom mirror needs to be replace. The parties were good and most of the staff. There was one restaurant where the food tasted good but the food was horrible.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The food service was good. However, the room’s phone never worked to call for service. The 1st thing was that the air conditioning was not working and we had to walk out and search for the cleaning staff to inform of this, the 2nd & 3rd morning the stayed there was no water and I couldn’t even call on the room phone to give a complain. When I walked out to search for the staff, everyone acted like they did not know what was going on and I even spoke very clear Spanish. No one ever helped us, I asked them for bottles of water so I could use them and they completely ignored my request. What they did offer me was to go into other guest rooms and try and use their phones(witch it was so uncomfortable) and neither of the phones worked either. The elevators kept breaking so we had to walk 4 floors up to our room every time. The cups they serve you are plastic recyclable cups that look like they are not cleaned properly and without water in sure they are not cleaned properly. The price of this hotel is not worth for the service you receive.

Solo getaway

Staff is very attentive, friendly, and courteous. There is a great variety of food choices (didn't pay attention if there are vegan options). I wouldn't say any particular thing is excellent but they are all good. I stick to buffet bc many of the theme restaurant items are there anyway. There's a jerk chicken stand by the beach; uber convenient. Things from home I miss: Mediterranean, sushi, cold brew coffee, iced tea, diet Pepsi. There are like 6 pools, very clean, 2 with swim up bars. There are buffets, bars, and pools on both ends of the resort so you don't have to walk all the across the resort except for the beach. I don't drink but there are liquor dispensers in the rooms and they keep your fridge stocked with local beer. The resort was attractive, clean, and in good repair. This end of the beach gets rough with a mild rip. Unfortunately no rideable waves; just 3 foot closeouts. Beach is clean, not rocky/shelly. They keep the sea grass (everywhere on the north side of Hispaniola) in check. Scuba Caribe is the on-site water sports operator. Decent packages, professional staff, can do advanced Open water cert. They don't do parasailing tho; you have to go about 3 resorts down the beach for that. Avoid spring break unless you like obnoxious kids. I personally avoid Friday/Saturday nights. Entertainment is a mixed bag; I liked the EDM show one night. Not a.lot of store variety. Would like a jetted tub. Overall awesome DR stay!

We paid extra cost of $60 per day to stay in the "suite " which was just the same ordinary room! From the evening on check in, Feiday April 18th, 2025, the air conditioner DIDN'T WORK! And, never was fixed! Water from the shower/bathroom was leaking into the bedroom! Even after our compliance every day! On the 2nd day we were lacked out of our room...Even after the manager's master key didn't work...Our refrigerator was empty and nevee was stocked until on the 3rd day of our stay and constant reminding... We almost missed our shuttle due the ordered belle man never showed up... It was unexpected disappointment for our first stay in this all inclusive resort....

The food is okay but we noticed the drinks were watered down as one of our guest is severely sensitive to alcohol but somehow she downed 5 drinks in 1 hour. There is an alcohol dispenser in the room which was nice but the outlets in our room and the Netflix weren't working. Room cleaning was also inconsistent with the timing while we were knocked on twice on the day of check out while we still have two hours before check out. None of the ice machines in the building was also working
