Has anyone from the UK travelled with First Choice recently? If so, how did you find the transfer? The brochure states an hour and a half but most other operators appear to fly to La Romana which I believe is much nearer. What was your experience of the rooms, ie. best location. Did you experience problems with upset tummies as this seems to be a recurring problem? Any hints/advice would be most welcome. |

We got married last year at IHD and went with first choice. The transfer is about 1 hr 30 but we did it in a storm. Its not too bad, nice scenery but take a fan as air con is not good enough especially if you have kids. | ||||||

Forgot to say all best rooms by the beach as they are quieter. We were a party of 16 and nobody had any upset stomachs. Dont worry this hotel is fab. | ||||||

Thanks for the information. Do you happen to know room/block numbers near the beach? | ||||||

Block 4 is the closest to the beach. We were lucky enough to get a room in this block on our first visit. I emailed ahead before our 2nd trip but we were not so lucky. We were in Block 3, which is fine. In my opinion, the only building to avoid is Block 1 which is very near to the theatre. It may not be a problem as I have not slept in that building. We used First Choice both trips. The journey time is one and a half hours which on top of a nine hour flight is not great. However, this beautiful hotel is worth it. We had no tummy troubles whatsoever either time. | ||||||
