Positives:
Great location with direct access to a very nice beach.
Friendly and helpful staff.
Multiple pools for all types of guests.
Good on-site options: ice cream shop, coffee shop, breakfast restaurant, and bars.
Having restaurant options within the hotel makes dining convenient.
Negatives:
A la carte restaurant reservations via the app are confusing and overly competitive.
Buffet menus (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) are repetitive and lack variety.
Housekeeping quality is poor — staff shows questionable hygiene and don’t even use gloves.
Beach and indoor bars offer very limited drink options — mostly just beer and juice.
Communication with international guests is weak; English proficiency is very poor.
No food is served on the beach.
Cuisine is heavily tailored to American tastes and does not cater well to South American guests.
A “Dominican fair” was hosted during our stay, where vendors harassed guests to buy souvenirs — felt like a scam inside the hotel.
The restaurant was overcrowded on Sunday, with long lines for breakfast and lunch, and part of the space was inexplicably closed.
Children’s activities are very weak, scheduled only around 6 PM, with nothing engaging in the evening.
Nighttime entertainment is virtually non-existent — just some unappealing kids’ videos and dances at the theater.
The hotel’s structure and service model are outdated and need urgent renewal.
Only artificial/processed juices are offered — no fresh options available.
