Well I am actually taking the time to write this review while still at the hotel let me tell you that with the room I was pleasantly surprised. As the pictures on line DO NOT do it justice. First class rooms. Clean and beautifully decorated. But if you want peace and quiet you will definitely find it here. Not much... More

We stayed in a 3BR penthouse a month ago and were blown away by the luxe accommodations, the beautiful grounds and the warm, welcoming and attentive staff (especially you, Darling!). While there were some VERY minor hiccups during our stay, every request was responded to immediately with prompt resolution. This is our new favorite place, and I'm loath to leave... More

We rented a luxury penthouse in Balcones del Atlantico, in the beautiful Samana Peninsula in the Dominican Republic. We flew direct from Toronto with WestJet but Air Canada flies as well. We decided to forgo the usual all-inclusives as we were sick of the bad behaviour of the other guests. The owners of our rental put us in touch with... More

I spent some time on our recent week's stay at Balcones del Atlantico (or, as the gracious staff calls it, simply, Balcones, pronounced: Bal-cone-AYS) thinking about writing this review. What would I say? So many things to try to capture for a TA reader wanting to understand just what a week's stay was like for us. Here goes. In a... More

The room we stayed in was absolutely beautiful. I didn't expect the size and the luxury -- three bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, full kitchen. There are some things you should know about staying here BEFORE you stay that I would not have known from the website. You can pre-order groceries. You have to email the front desk to do so. The...

We are still talking about our 6 day trip to DR and Balcones weeks after our return to Colorado. My wife and I found out about Balcones Del Atlantico through its previous relationship with Rock Resorts and while no longer owned by Rock, we were very happy with our stay. We stayed in Phase 2 in a beautifully appointed 1... More

Our family of four, with two kids 11 and 6, just returned from a week-long stay at Balcones del Atlantico and cannot wait to return. Our room was beautiful, well-appointed and extremely clean. The pools and beach were stunning. The service was simply exceptional, from those at Porto, concierge, housekeeping, taxi/transport, security...everyone. I especially want to thank Delmys, who went... More

We just returned from a 9 day stay at Balcones del Atlantico, our first trip to Dominican Republic. The resort staff was topnotch from the groundskeepers to the concierge. The grounds were meticulously kept. The villa was perfect (2 bedroom, 2.5 bath, kitchen, washer/dryer, huge lanai, air conditioning, ceiling fans, US TV). The staff was extraordinarily pleasant, helpful, and knowledgeable... More

My family of five (wife, two pre-teen daughters and 7-year-old son) spent four nights at the resort and had an excellent time. JetBlue now flies direct from JFK into Samana Airport which was a 30-minute scenic drive to the hotel. We stayed in a three-bedroom unit on the ground floor with an outdoor Jacuzzi. The unit was beautifully appointed, clean... More

We just returned from a once in a lifetime vacation at Balcones del Atlantico. What can we say about such a beautiful and well run establishment. From beginning to end, this was pure perfection from the transportation from the airport to the service and the food. Not to mention the pristine, unspoiled beach we sat on daily! Eating at Porto...
