This hotel is fantastic. It is linked to the Sun Village Resort, but it's worth the extra money to stay at Bungalows. Basically, you get a very large, spacious room at Bungalows and you get access to the Bungalows restaurant and pool, which is only available to those staying at Bungalows. You also get access to all of the Sun... more

The hotel was worth it for what I paid-- about $70 a night p/p. My husband and I were disappointed to find out that only house wine was included in the price. I've stayed at a 3-star hotel in Juan Dolio and at a 4-star hotel in Punta Cana and they both had better food than this 5-star (advertised as... more

My husband and I went to the Bungalow resort (part of Sun Village) for my 40 birthday with my parents. This was the first trip we left the kids at home. The Bungalow is the adult only portion of the resort. Our rooms were spacious and beautiful. The pool at our section of the resort was quiet and relaxing. There... more

We've been there in mid September. The problems started upon our arrival. The concierge Edwin told us that we were on vacation and had to forget all our problems. That's when problems stared. Cheap Caribbean provided wrong information about our departure and we needed some assistance to correct it. It took us 5 days out of our week vacation to... more

To all of you who think that a confirmation number means that you are guaranteed a room, think again....we booked a room thru a legit travel website. After getting a confirmation number we called The Bungalows/Sun Villiage resort only THREE DAYS before our arrival day to confirm our room. The resort said that everything was set and they were "looking... more

Went over Labor Day weekend, rumours of Hurricane Erika but ended up with lovely hot, if not humid, sunny days. Property i connected to the Sun Village Resort...encompassing about 5+ different pools, 7 or so restaurants/bars, tennis courts and beach side. I was thankful for our Pool which is Adults only; others to include children with slides and such. The... more

Firstly - go and check my other reviews and you'll see that I'm not one of these people who make a huge stink about their hotel because they saw a cockroach. This hotel, on first glance, seems like an elegant, lavish five-star steal. It only takes about 20 minutes into the stay to realize that the great deal you found... more

Excellent accommodation, staff and ambience. The food at the Social was great and all of the waiters and waitresses very friendly. However, the internet access was expensive and on some days unreliable. For teenage children, there was the pool, tennis and the games room at Sun Village to keep them occupied but more activities for that age group (such as... more

My husband 2 friends and I just returned from the bungalows and it was a great vacation. We started out staying at the sun village resort and we didnt care for it so we upgraded to the bungalows and it was like a whole new vacation. The rooms were beautiful and we had excellent service. The pool was nice with... more
