“Great (first) stay in the DR”

Reviewed June 5, 2013

This is a good resort which has it all, including a beautiful beach! We booked the villas and were glad we didn't buy the upgrade to the Superior rooms. The villas are in the back of the resort, thus much less noise but a 15 minutes long walk to the beach. There is a "train" coming by each 15/20 minutes... More
