I stayed at the coconut palms for one week April 13-20th. There were seven people in our group and we had one two bedroom unit and two one bedroom units side by side. We had units 17,18,19. I was nervous after having seen quite a few negative reviews but I was pleasantly surprised. The number one asset at this hotel... More

We have been members of RCI for over 25 years and have to say this was the WORST resort we have stayed in. First the location was outside of Cabarete several miles and required us to take an expensive taxis to town every day. Second, the resort was very run down. The tiles in the condo were chipped, cracked, or... More

My wife and I booked a 1-bedroom with a partial kitchen using RCI TImeshare points based on a "silver crown" (or something similar) as shown on the exchange directory. When we arrived, we was the plaques, but they were about 10 years old and the 10 years showed. We initially had no hot water - nobody told us to turn... More

If you are looking to experience the true Dominican...can appreciate a beautiful breeze, wonderfully kind and accommodating staff, noise at times (chickens, dogs barking, horses, the tranquil sound of waves and some music from the Tikki bar), cooking the odd meal or not because they do have a meal plan in the restaurant, a walk to the beach and a...

My wife and I had a wonderful week’s vacation in January at Coconut Palms, Cabarete, on the north shore ($100 taxi trip from the Santiago airport) near where the annual surfing championships are held. Through RCI we booked a spacious 2-bedroom unit with full kitchen and, while we had a non-working toaster, it was quickly and cheerfully replaced. Service was... More

This is a small resort, which allows you to meet and get friendly with staff and visitors. Mixed crowd from young and active, families with kids & mature couples...we all got along great. The pool was great. The restaurant food was good, not great, but the live music several times during the week were terrific. It is close to two... More

The location is good...between Puerto Plata and Cabarete. The road to the hotel is filled with potholes and should've been repaired years ago. The hotel is clean and well maintained, with a nice pool. The food is mediocre, however if you rent a car, and you should, there are many good restaurants in Cabarete. Getting there at night is another... More

Me and my wife spent 1 week in this hotel 2 weeks ago. It was a nice stay, being the staff, in general, very friendly and helpful. The pool is also good. The room was nice, but almost everything inside was very old, which translated into, for instance, an archaic rusty water-heater inside the clothes closet; a toilet into which... More

We read the reviews about the Coconut Palms Resort on this tripadvisor page before booking. Not one of them mentioned that because of the 22 year age of the facility sewerage piping is smaller than is now generally used. There were signs above the toilet in each bathroom indicating that used toilet paper should not be flushed down the toilet.... More
