Great service
This was a great experience due to two employees who really made us feel like family Yenibel Carrasco y Angel Perez we had ruff start but once we met them at the snack shack their customer care was out of this world. They took care of our every need and were exited to meet us every day . They deserve recognition! I attached a photo of them with us when you visit look for them in the snack shack. Great people great customer service!

Mar 27, 2026Service!!
Could use some better training for some employees for service, what saved this trip was the snack shack. If it wasn’t for angel perez and yenibel carrasco this would have really been disappointing. They treated us with great hospitality and culture, being Hispanic myself it made me feel back home.

Mar 26, 2026You don't pay much, but you get what pay for.
This place is mid to bad. first off, the toilets don't work well. The food is bad, the reserved restaurants are ok. The hibachi place is good, but the dominican one isn't great. We didn't get to go to the french one because you only get 2 reservations for a 5 night stay. the buffet is bad, especially the snack bar. The worst part about the food situation though is the several hours a day where the buffet is closed and options are limited. The staff is mostly rude or at least uninterested with the exception of a few. The vast majority of staff do NOT speak English, so communication is difficult. the guests are also predominantly Spanish speakers, which is fine unless you don't speak Spanish. The resort activities are ok. The beach is really nice and I had a good time playing volleyball. The night club is mid. When ordering drinks you either get a splash or two shots worth. Surprisingly, you can bring a water bottle of any size and they will give any drink in that water bottle. Easy hack to maximize alcohol. Lastly, water is not easy to grt a hold of, especially at night when everything is closed. Overall this resort is mid to bad, but the value is still good. TLDR: We paid $300 a night for 2 rooms and we got what we paid for. you'd be hard pressed to find a hotel on the beach for lower let alone an all inclusive. I would never pay more than that though.

The Dominican Republic imposes various restrictions each year for Easter. The restrictions usually begin the Thursday prior to Good Friday, and run a few days past Easter Sunday. The following regulations may be enforced:
*Motorized watersports may be banned
*Non-motorized water sports may be limited, or banned
*Alcohol consumption may be restricted (most resorts obtain a special permit which enables them to serve alcohol to nonnative persons during the ban)
*Music may be limited or silencedThese guidelines are currently vague because actual enforcement by the local government does vary greatly from one year to the next. Each year the actual policies are not published by the local authorities until just prior to Easter. These rules are designed for the safety of everyone, as beaches get extremely busy during this period.
