“Friendly hotel but services poor”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed January 23, 2013

We visited this hotel feb 2012 and were very disappointed in services. We are not hard to please but they were continuously out of things at the bar. One day no ice, another no limes. Another no beer etc. drink selection limited with only 8 fancy drinks to choose from. Buffet had theme nights but was just average. Salad bar small and limited.Beach rough. Rooms were good. Resort clean. But I would not return here on a vacation because it was just an ok place to stay. Had coworker who just returned from there and half way through their 2 weeks they asked to move to another hotel. His comments were the Same so it looks like things have not improved in a year.

The pluses were very friendly rec staff who always kept things lively. Could always get a chair at pool. Small hotel which made it easy to meet people.

“VERY FAR AND VERY WORN”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed November 8, 2012

The hotel seemed to be priced better than the competition and the reasons became clear soon after arrival. The hotel is located very far from the center of Cabarete ($10 cab ride) and at night it is a scary journey back down dark unlit roads. The room was peeling and cracking and badly in need of updating. The breakfast was decent. Had I known what I now know, I would have stayed somewhere else. I thought I was saving money but I nearly lost my mind.

Room Tip: Just say no.

“dont stay here. youre just going to waste your money and time... and if you want to get robbed and please do so.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed October 21, 2012 via mobile

i have been traveling to DR a couple times and have stayed at different resorts and this one by far was the worse.... stayed at this resort for 2 nights. had to wait more than an hour to check in considering there was only 2 person infront of me. after checking in went to the room hoping to relax after traceling for good 2 1/2 hours from sdq, but the room was disgusting and filthy. dust all over and the sheets were nasty and brownish. then the bathroom was disgusting and toilet didnt flush. food was ok i guess. decided to book to eat at the restaurant i think it was a jamaican resto. the food was horrible that we left in the middle of eating and went to the buffet instead.

not only everything was bad but one of the guest got robbed in her room. stole her money and belongings. she asked the manager to help her and call the police so she can file a complaint and the manager just turned away and refused to call maybe they were scared to be held responsible. poor canadian lady who was a missionary for santiago was left on the curb crying. being a good samaritan, had to asked what was wrong and that was the story. i was livid... this place is not safe. she had a feelin lg it was one of the staff coz she made sure her patio door and front door was closed before she left. JUST PLAIN HORRIBLe!!!!! THIS PLACE SUCKS!!!!!!

“Not good at all”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed October 5, 2012

I don't recommend this hotel at all. First it's not really located at Cabarete so you need a car to go in to town. The food is terrible. The room conditions are very poor. This hotel has a lot of potencial but it needs to be remodeled urgently!!!

“NOT located in Cabarete”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed September 16, 2012

I just wanted to let everyone know that this hotel is NOT located in or near Cabarete town. It is approximately 25 minutes down the highway and in a very isolated area. Many travel sites have the place mapped incorrectly and even Google Earth has it marked as right down town in Cabarete.
I originally booked at this hotel and when I discovered it was located in a depressed and scary part of the coast I immediately changed hotels. This area contains miles and miles of abandoned hotels and resorts... it's very bizarre - like a ghost town.
Local Domincans live all around the hotel in their small shacks next to these crumbling resorts.
Since I was travelling alone and had no car, it would have been awful to stay here.
Happy Travels.

Stayed August 2012, traveled solo
