The only thing I could add to this perfect stay was the possibility for more dinning options in the few restaurants that were opened. Met some great people. That was my second time, definitely will be returning for a 3rd...

6/10 Good

I have been to many resorts in the DR and this one has been my less favorite. They could have more umbrellas in the pool area. 1 bar to service all in the pool area with limited staffing. Back of the bar should be used as a pool bar which is a missed opportunity. The disco, if you want to call it that is very small and it was very hot in there. AC not working properly. Overall amenities are minimal. The Arcade is not included. They have only 1 shop here. The main dinning area is very hot and could use additional fans. Also limited staffing to service with drinks. The food I can say was good. Only 3 featured restaurants of which on Sunday only 1 is open for service. Room fridge just somewhat cool. AC could be colder. No option to bring ice to room.

It was a group of 10. We each had an issue with our rooms from the a.c not working, no hot water, my room got flooded n they just put towels in front of sliders the light in the bathroom was leaking. Staff was not responsive, no ATM, bar tender in club completely ignored us, the ceilings were leaking over us as we ate. We let staff know and where told to move but the icing that took the cake was having to wait till 7 for my room only to find dirty towels still on the floor in the bathroom and the bed linen were never changed. And the drinks are the worst. The list goes on and on never ever again
