We went in the second week of October and stayed in the Dominican. It was a great room with a great view. We had an issue with the fridge, and they came right away and fixed it. The pools were great, but the one with slide was only open on weekend and we only got to spend one day there. We had a great time. If you are looking to be close to the hustle and bustle of the main shops and activities this may not be for you. It can be quite a walk if you have kids. I think they have shuttle buses, but they must only work on weekends during this time too. We plan on going back.

We stayed the last week in August/part of the first week of September and had a 4 bedroom ocean front condo in the Caymen Tower. We thought that the condo was nice and was kept very clean by the cleaning staff. The pools were nice and seemed to be cleaned every night. They had plenty of pool towels available pool side and the WiFi worked well. The management was very prompt if we needed more room towels, or kitchen appliances, etc.

Some of the clientele was a little sketchy (looked like they just got in from the Greyhound bus out of prison), considering what I paid for a week you would not expect to have to worry about getting shanked on the property. Not sure if I would go back as we are looking for something a little more "upscale" next year, but apparently they either must offer some really good deals or advertise heavily in "Parolee Magazine". My guess is that in the one bedroom ocean front suites, you have like 20 people packed in per room sharing the cost, hence some of the scary clientele.

While I can not comment on the villas(we stayed in a regular room)the room we did have had a great ocean view. The room was average at best though. Nice to have a fridge and stove, but we are used to staying with Marriott vacation clubs. We only had to stay for 1 night which is probably about as long as I could stay. Good enough for a short stay but not an extended one, unless the villas are nicer.

I've been coming down to MB for the past four years for my Birthday and my boyfriend and I have always stayed at the Caribbean....this last experience however wasn't as nice as the last three. We had some issues with our room and the staff this time around but the manager of the hotel was very attentive to our issues convinced us to try them once again next year. Hoping next year is much better.
