Location
The Be Live Grand Marien - All Inclusive lies along the "Amber Coast," the northern Costa Dorada beach resort area of the Dominican Republic. Vast deposits of amber in the region earned this nickname, along with the tawny colored sand on all the shores. Puerto Plata offers eateries, shopping and historic landmarks, including a Colonial fort. Visit Santiago de Los Caballeros City, known for fine cigars and old rum factories, about an hour away from the Be Live Grand Marien - All Inclusive.
Rooms
A relaxed neutral scheme inspired by Caribbean style fills 584 roomy accommodations at the Be Live Grand Marien - All Inclusive. A private terrace or balcony opens to the garden, pool or ocean in rooms that offer two queen beds or one king. For vacation comfort and convenience, guests look forward to a hairdryer, coffee maker, cable TV, clock radio, iron/ironing board, telephone, ceiling fan and air conditioning. Wi-Fi is available for mobile business tasks (fees apply). The mini-bar, replenished daily, provides complimentary soft drinks, beer and water after a hot sunny day by the pool.
Features
With a coral reef not far from the Be Live Grand Marien - All Inclusive, snorkelers and divers get their kicks near Puerto Plata. Outdoors-y types join a beach volleyball game or plan a romantic horseback ride (fees apply). Guests enjoy the in-house Be Relax Spa where aromatherapy, facials, body treatments, wraps and massages are on the menu. Add a waxing or nail service to go along with and linger longer in the saunas, Jacuzzi tubs and steam baths.
Dining
Choose a restaurant to suit any mood from four choices at the Be Live Grand Marien - All Inclusive. A grand buffet, traditional Mexican cuisine, exotic Brazilian flavors or gourmet dishes with fine preparation and presentation in an open-air environment offer a world of options. Stop by the Be Live Grand Marien - All Inclusive's pool bar, snack bar or the 24-hour sports bar which doubles as a nightclub after dark.

if you want to lose wait this is the place to go

This hotel has gone down hill since my last stay. I was surprised to see such a change. The food they serve looked more like dog food. On my second night there, I had to order a pizza from Dominoe Pizza for dinner. I truly believe that dogs are fed better food than what they serve their guests. Their snack bar is also awful. Their hamburgers were placed in hot water and were given the guests uncooked. I caught severe stomach problems while my stay at Be Live GrandMarien. I had to call the front desk to find out if there were any nearby restaurants and i was told there were none, which was a lie.

It was fun

I came here for my birthday in February. I had a blast! the drinks kept coming and the staff was awesome. It is more of a family resort and relaxation, but if you really want to party right outside of the hotel there's a club called PURE it was fun. And 10 minute drive away from the resort you have a bunch of party places. Over all the beach was great and the drinks were awesome. I had a tequila sunrise every morning ;)

Great Relaxing Vacation

Had a wonderful relaxing 7 days on the beach. Loved our room and our bed was so comfortable we slept late every day. Staff was friendly and helpful. Food was nothing spectacular but very acceptable. I would recommend the 27 waterfalls tour for the adventurous. Was very easy and reasonable to book at the hotel. Great value for the money.........

Not bad for the money

I stayed here in September of 2012. As I was a female traveling alone I thought it would be safest to stay at an all-inclusive. I had read the past reviews and was a little nervous but all in all it wasn't bad. The food wasn't great but the staff was very nice and the 24 hour access to food was nice. However, if you are traveling alone I would not recommend staying here. Stay at one of the hostels in Cabarete. They are more geared toward that sort of travel. Make sure you check out the 27 waterfalls tour...it made the trip.

Check out the shopping in central Puerto Plata but make sure you don't pay what they ask! They almost always double or triple the price at first.

Be Live Grand Marien

If you like food, this is the place for you. Selection and quality is top notch, Unfortunately, the room air conditioning does not meet acceptable standards for cooling even after two service calls. After the service call, the room temp was still 90. Only one of the restaurants is air conditioned, with the others open to birds which swoop on your food when you leave the table. Entertainment and other facilities are very good. Plenty of security guards patrol day and night, but there seems to be a lack of lifeguards around the pool area and beach.
