Mar 25, 2025Great Resort
This was our first time at this resort and we were so pleased at the amenities, atmosphere and overall experience here. Although, next time, we will book 10 days. Danny at the front desk was able to change our room within hours of checking in. We were on the 3rd floor but due to mobility issues, we prefer the ground floor. The room was perfect, clean and smelled fresh when we checked in. Huge variety of food in the main buffet and snack bar near the pool. Specialty restaurants, Sakura (Japanese) and Italian restaurant were great. My favorite was Sakura. The resort is very well maintained and landscape always impeccable. Danny, Liz and Braylin at the front desk were always available to answer questions and provide advice and recommendations. Many bars throughout the resort and always accessible. Nightly entertainment was never repetitive. Resort has it's own private beach. Great family resort for anyone with small kids.

Family trip
The beach was awesome and the food was great excellent service and people. The actives were awesome and get to win prices too. The place is beautiful and beach was the best part. The activities on the beach was the best part and weather is super nice. My buddy Nija was the best he host me in the activities and was awesome.

Mar 24, 2025Great Value for Money in Puerto Plata
We went with 4 kids and 2 adults. The resort is older, but very well maintained. Any issues we had were minor and addressed immediately. The staff are lovely and helpful. The beach is clean and while there is seaweed in a portion of the water, there are many spots to go in where it won't bother you. The pool gets messy by the end of the day (mostly palm tree debris, some bird droppings), but it's open to the air and always clean again first thing in the morning so hard to complain. The rooms are basic and clean, nice showers with decent soap/shampoo. The filtered water system is great, easy to stay hydrated. The food was varied, fresh and mostly excellent. We tried the Mexican and Italian a la carte. The Italian was pretty good but we actually preferred the usual buffet. The snack bar and drinks selection were great. Activities are so fun, and it's really the staff that make it. We did the pickleball tournament, sea kayaks, karaoke night, dominican folklore show, dance lessons and lots of giant chess. We felt it was extremely good value for money.

Great hotel, wonderful people
As a first time visitor to Puerto Plata, this hotel was recommended to me. Everything was great at check-in and my room was lovely overlooking the swimming pool and the beautiful grounds. As I knew no one at this resort. I approached a member of the animation team as to the show that night, etc. Well this gentlemen turned out to be a very good friend. His name was "Joy" and he headed up the animation team. I did not lack for dance partners in the evening. Ninja always made sure I had a good time. I loved the cooking classes daily on the beach, from Paella to San Cocho, my favorite Dominican soup. The food in the restaurants was good. However, it was the people who served me as a solo traveler that made me feel special. My breakfast waiter always had "my same table" ready for my arrival. I never lacked for hot coffee! As with most resorts, there has to be a con. It was the service at the lobby bar especially in the evening prior to the nightly shows. People just form a long line and it took forever to get served. Also their bars do not have bar stools so socializing with other guests doesn't happen. I hope management finds a way to address this problem. Thank goodness for the lovely cocktail waitresses as I used then to get my drinks. Also, the concierge, Manny. did a great job of handling my excursion requests as well as Millie. I definitely loved the atmosphere of this resort and all the various activities. By the time I left my weeks vacation, I felt like I had an extended family.

Great holiday
We visited this resort for a week and had a great time. The first room we got was on the 3rd floor and we asked to move to the ground floor. Both rooms were very clean and everything worked fine. The beach area was perfect. We could stay under the trees for shade or move into the sun. Drinks were fine and the food was awesome. Never had any issues. The only issue we had was leaving at the airport. There were 3 Sunwing flights leaving about the same time and not enough staff. There were hundreds of people crowded into the hot airport trying to check in. People were passing out, getting sick and having anxiety attacks. It was horrible. We waited for 2 and 1/2 hours. Because of that our flight was delayed an hour. But our holiday was very enjoyable.
