Comfy and Clean Room

I really enjoyed my stay in a spacious room with a comfortable bed and nice air conditioning. Every day, the cleaning service was prompt, and I appreciated the fresh towels. The bathroom was adequate, and the view was simply lovely. It made me feel right at home during my vacation!

Tasty Dining Experience

The variety and quality of food were surprisingly good! I tried several new Dominican dishes during my stay. Most meals were flavorful and satisfying, especially breakfast. I really appreciated the self-service style, which made it easy to find something delicious every day.

Refreshing Pools

With five swimming pools available, there was always a perfect spot to relax and cool off. The main pool was well-maintained and inviting, ideal for a refreshing dip on those hot days. I found plenty of sunbeds, and the atmosphere was perfect for chilling out.

Fun Evening Entertainment

I loved the evening entertainment! Although it was primarily in Spanish, there was an energetic vibe that made it enjoyable. The live performances were entertaining, and I appreciated the effort put into making every night feel special. It was an excellent way to wind down after a day of fun in the sun!

The hotel has a clean and comfortable atmosphere with several pools and a beautiful beachfront view. While I enjoyed the accommodations and the staff was genuinely friendly, the dining options were quite limited and not particularly impressive. Although I had a pleasant stay overall, the amenities could use improvements to enhance the experience.

We had an enjoyable stay at the hotel with beautiful views, a clean environment, and friendly staff. The rooftop pool was a highlight, but it could feel overcrowded with children at times. Some aspects of the dining experience were a bit repetitive, and the overall entertainment could use more variety. But with great service and a fantastic beach nearby, it was still a solid vacation.

While the food was decent, it did tend to be repetitive and not very exciting after a few days. The a la carte option didn't significantly enhance the experience either.

The hotel boasts several pools and well-kept areas for relaxation, though the rooftop pool could have benefited from a more controlled access for families.
