“Well, what can I say.....”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed November 19, 2012

The good.... Beach was nice, but crowded. Grounds were well kept. Food was beautifully prepared. Roads are much better than they used to be. Staff were friendly, but didnt speak much English.

The bad..... Most of the buffet food was tasteless. I pretty much lived on pizza for a week. You had to pay extra to eat at some of the restaurants. Our room had mold on the ceiling, and all over the curtains. It was so damp that our towells and batheing suits NEVER dried. The air only comes on when you are in the room, so if you are very hot and looking for a cool room, you will come into a hot room. They dont know what a wash cloth is. The sliding door was broken in our room and stayed open about 6 inches until my husband fixed it. The bed was lumpy and horrible.

I think some of the rooms were updated but when we asked for an upgrade they said they were full, which I do not believe.
Do not let them talk you into listening to their time share spiel. They want WAY more than a normal time share and do NOT give you the gift that they promise when you sign up. Its a bunch of bull.
The drinks were HORRIBLE. No American brands, just bad tasting so called alcohol. There was one bar where you could get some good whisky and rum etc, but they charged $10.00 per drink. The only way this place stays open is the cheap price. In my opinion, shell out another couple hundred and go to a NICE place. I certainly wish we had.
If you are an American, you will be a minority. NO ONE speaks English. They are German and Italian and very rude. They will run you off the side walk and not move over to pass.
Driving from the airport to the resort is about 2 hours of pure terror!! They drive like maniacs. I was scared to death.
I travel a lot , about 5 times a year and hardly ever put up a bad review. Folks SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO ELSEWARE.

“avoid resort”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed November 18, 2012

everyone we met had suffered from dysentery and stomach cramps..infirmary had standing room only...rooms did not have amenities shown on Wyndham's site {mini fridge, iron, bottled water }...we were delayed returning due to hurricane and they would not assist in rearranging shuttle or extending our stay. No internet available for contacting airlines or receiving revised flight schedule. Customer service-each sitting in front of a computer-telling us they had no access to internet and could not receive our new itineraries. Staff pretended not to understand English when it suited them. Cockroaches as big as quarters...need I say more?

“need to speak english”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 17, 2012

This is a beautiful resort. Thats about the only good thing. The people do not speak enough english to get buy. They are rude and act as if we are doing them a favor by being there. Check in and check out was slow. The food is only fair. We willnot go back, Mexico is much better.

“Great value & beautiful grounds”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 13, 2012

Overall this hotel is a great value for your money. The grounds are beautiful; the pool & beach areas are great. The location is also great because it is not as far from Santo Domingo as Bavaro or Punta Cana. My only concerns were regarding the room, the drinks, and the food. I say concerns because I really didn't have "complaints". For once, the standard rooms were... Just that. Nothing special. They didn't even have a mini refrigerator which was inconvenient when traveling with an infant that required refrigerated formula. The drinks were generic brands & all tasted watered down, but that is to be expected at an all inclusive resort for this price. Lastly, the food wasn't terrible but it also wasn't great. It was just average. However, overall, I would stay here again. The atmosphere was welcoming and the employees were helpful and friendly.
