We keep coming back to Cofresi every time we come to the DR. The staff is great Santiago was fun and all the rest of the guys and girls who work there are so nice and humble. We love the fact that when they see us come back they smile and treat us like royalty. This is by far one... More

My husband and I stayed from 5/12-5/18, and we wanted to leave the next day, the resort is not organized, food was horrible, the first 3days the resort was filled with locals with lots of kids, these people are all rude. The best part of our stay was our room, in the new buildings we stayed in the 40 building... More

We stayed for 5 days/4nights for my birthday at the beginning of May. It was a blast. All the staff members we encounter were friendly and courteous, always with a smile. Grounds were cleaned and well kept. We stayed in building 41 closer to the pools and beach. Room was spacious and modern. My wife really liked the bathroom. This... More

We traveled to the Dominican, my husband and I and 2 other couples in March. Cofresi had recently had its "Grand Re-Opening" and we had read many, many bad reviews. Despite all we read, we had a WONDERFUL time! The resort was very nice, one room smelled a tad bit musty, but nothing that bothered us. I personally thought the... More

Stayed there with a friend for 5 days, and it was wonderful. They put us in a junior suite in Cofresi Palm section, and it was fantastic: spacious, nicely appointed room with a large hot tub, marble bathroom, flat plasma, and a big terrace! Plenty of hot water, too. When I saw the room I couldn't believe it considering what... More

Stayed May 4-11 with another couple. Airport was fine. Paid our $10.00 a person fee and was quickly out of there. We did not pre-book our airport transportation. We got a cab (it was a van) at the airport. It was $45 for all 4 of us and our luggage. We didn't have to wait on others for the vehicle... More

I had a great time May 9-14. The 400 block jr. suite I requested was great. The excursions and parties were super fun. Massage and spa are wonderful. The employees were very nice and I always felt safe. I had no problems with service, h20, stairs, etc. The food was mostly good and I stuck to breads, omelets, chicken, rice,... More
