It will be great if the lobby is more brighter, to match the vibes of excitement. It would be perfect if the other restaurant outside near the beach doesn’t need to get dress up when getting food for more convenience while in beach. The beach sand is excellent 😍💕…

Second visit to Dreams Sands was disappointing. Resort feels run down with multiple maintenance issues. The restaurants were intermittently closed. The Sports bar was only open once during our stay for a show, but otherwise not used. Housekeeping was hit or miss, and more miss than hit. We were in Preferred and promised turndown service. We got it one time in 7 days, even after trying to order it on their app! The exterior of the property beach and poolside, looked very unkept. People who worked in the World Cafe were very kind, but the guys at the Preferred beach were almost indifferent. 2 years ago when were were there, they treated us great, and couldn't do enough for us. We are good tippers, but this year felt that we should have saved our money. Drink and food service to the preferred beach was not consistent at best and really slow. Food at most restaurants was mostly bad. We will not return.

They wouldn’t let you in the pools because they set up a dinner. When it rained they have nothing in doors to do. They took money from my husbands wallet in our room. I’ll never go back . I paid to upgrade and once I bitched the day before I left did I get the service I paid for.

Not great

We went as a family of 4. My husband, 21yo daughter and 4yo son. Positives: The location is stunning. The water is very shallow so it's great for kids. No seaweed, a warm. Really, a dream. Negatives: 1. The main negative was the deception of the vip staff. Beware-they will try to sign everyone up for a timeshare. My 21 yo daughter decided to attend (she makes adult money). She watched the 90 min presentation and they refused to provide the 3 day 2 night stay as promised. They had 3 people attempt to sell her the package. She went with the intention to possibly purchase because she loved the area so much but was not at all impressed with the property or amenities. They told her that she didn't meet the qualifications because she was not 30yo or married. No one explained that prior to booking her or attempting to sell her the package. It was not stated on any of their paperwork. Deceptive practices. 2. The food was mediocre at best. Room service food was not good. 3. We had 2 rooms. Room 1: had a broken shower door so the bathroom would flood every time you took a shower. We would clean it up ourselves of course but it was very annoying. The shower water would go from warm to scolding hot several times during the shower in both rooms. Be careful with kids. Room 2 smelled musty and moldy the entire time. Giant bug in room 2. Needs new paint, chipped. 4. There was very little alcohol in the drinks. 5. No one answers the phone. Called front desk, spa, service etc.
