A good mid-range resort close to Puerta Plata Airport, but I wouldn’t go again because of the many vendors trolling the beach. Too many! Cut down the vendors if you want more people to come.

I am not sure how this place has reviews mentioning cleanliness, which is utterly lacking. The pool was filthy, the room, while “clean”- the tub was chipped and the sheets on one of the beds were oxidized. There were no towels in the room. I mentioned this to the cleaning staff and was told the towels were coming, almost 3 hours later when we decided to move to another hotel, still no towels in sight. The WiFi in the rooms is nonexistent, we checked in and checked out about 2.5 hours later. Only then was I told that there is indeed WiFi for purchase in the rooms, this wasn’t mentioned prior. It’s an all inclusive, the WiFi being extra should be mentioned upon booking. The hotel is extremely outdated. The restaurants were closed shortly after we arrived and we were told to go to the beach snack bar. All I have to say is the food there looked old and sad, the staff was very nice I must say but they have to work with what they have. The room was very small, but that’s not on the hotel, I booked what was available. The lobby isn’t air conditioned, there’s no welcome drinks or those hand towels you get at most hotels to clean your hands. There’s no welcoming period- like even directing you to check-in. There seemed to be an inordinate amount of people present at the hotel on the particular Sunday of our arrival. I also dislike the whole system of getting cards for towels, just seems like an unnecessary hassle, but this isn’t exclusive to this hotel.

Overall great place to stay. Would suggest to get the premium or royal packages since it gives the the special dining which gives you the ability to eat at a special restaurant and if you don’t like what they gave you, you can always go to the buffet, food overall was good in my opinion. Lots to choose from. Entertainment every night, there’s always something to do and if you want excursions or day trips you can book them at the hotel. Good experience just wished they had an ATM at the hotel. The nearest ATM is at the nearest mall which is only a short walk away, but you have people harassing you to buy there items, no Bueno, or make sure to bring your own cash before traveling here. They do exchange at the hotel. But no ATM.

This hotel is amongst the best in the Puerto Plata region. While the hotel needs some updating in the rooms, the staff and the food was absolutely fantastic. We especially appreciated Albania at the check in counter who looked to address all of our needs, given we were traveling with an infant. Adrian in the buffet always ensured we felt comfortable. Rooms were also very clean but need updating.

Will not recommend for the next person!
They gave 2 rooms that were on the 3rd floor and down several doors away from each other. I would think that two rooms booked under the same reservation would be next to one another. Upon asking front desk, they requested one room in one building and the other room in a SEPARATE building. Which makes zero sense after i stated i wanted the rooms closer. Fast forward, i go to ask for reservations for the next day at the only restaurant they had open. Was informed that reservations were closed for the day, we arrived at 3pm. Staff told me to come back the next morning, I did. I went back at 9am on the dot and they told me that they were full and not taking anymore reservations. We complained to the staff member that it wasn't fair since i was told to come back. Fast forward again, my brother had a blister and wanted to go into the pool so we stopped by the gift store. They didn't have any waterproof bandages and the lady told me to walk to the pharmacy. We walked to the pharmacy and they also didn't have any waterproof bandages. Later on the day, we tried to take a shower and the 2 rooms we had DIDN'T HAVE ANY WATER. My grandma had to call and they told us that the water system was being fixed. After about an hour, the water came in but there was no hot water. After calling again, they said the water is going to take a while to adjust. SHAKING MY DARN HEAD....

Upon check in we weren’t given towel cards, 2 towels for 4 people and clueless as to how to access WiFi or other amenities. We were able to get by without towel cards, called 4 times for more towels (had to repeat this process for 3 days), had to unplug router and reconnect and figured out property events on our own.

Overall I would say it was a very good resort. The mini fridge in your room comes stocked with 2 bottles of pop 2 cans of beer, and about 4 bottles of water. You are right on the beach. There are 4 or five different restaurants but I only ate at the buffet one it was close to my room and the other ones have wierd hours. The water in the shower didn't get very hot and the temperature would fluctuate alot also couldn't take a bath because tub drain wouldn't seal closed. Do NOT buy cigars at the mall. Counterfeit scam!!

VH Gran Ventana was amazing! The property is beautiful and the entertainment was awesome. The rooms could use some updating but it wasnt an issue because we were only in the rooms long enough to sleep. Oh, and you couldnt drink the tap water but they were generous with the bottled water. The food was filling and delicious. I would definitely stay again.
