The property is lovely. However, the staff needs training on providing better services - “service with a smile” should be thought.
Everything I like, it was a good stay
Nelson, our Butler was outstanding! Always ready to help and make reservations and suggest things for us.
All the staff were quite friendly and helpful. Stayed at other Royaltons and this one is not my favorite but certainly was a nice week. My only dislike was the music being played at the Hideaway pool. Vulgar!!!
Beautiful ocean front property with swim up pools. Live entertainment and great service.
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. I spent 5 days there. I have been to hundreds of All inclusive Resorts. This is the worst one by far. I thought by spending a lot of money to go there i was going to have a great time but that was not the case. I hope this helps you from not making a bad decision like how i did. The food was horrible. It does not taste good. The cooks can not cook. The buffet was limited. They did not put any seasonings on the food. it Was not edible ..i got sick. They DO NOT HAVE any ginger ale. All the sodas are watered down. Please bring your own hot sauce. They only have tobasco hit sauce. They did not even have the option of Dominican Republic hot sauce and i was their country. Alcohol are watered down. They make your drinks with cheap liquor on purpose then have the audacity to show you that they have better Alcohol BUT want you to pay TOP $$$$ dollars after you already spent money. They were trying to charge me $100 for a small bottle of vodka, rum Hennessy, Bourbon whiskey. Then they charge you for wine. Also they served cheap beer.Bring your own straws. They do not give you any straws. You are not allowed to bring a hookah to smoke on the beach. They let sign a form before you get your room. I dont smoke hookah but can you imagine you can not smoke a hookah on the beach? They have so many restrictions. No speakers of any kind.. They make you sign a form stating that you will not use your speakers of any kind not even on the beach.
The property was beautiful and well maintained. Staff at the club beach bar was great. Food was good or average-typical of an all inclusive. Wait staff was horrible in all the restaurants.
Swim out rooms were amazing, really cool. Pools were clean and nice. Rooms were great. Service made me feel like everytime I asked for something that I was a burden. Tipping didn’t help, unless you tipped every single time. And COVID made it so you couldn’t serve yourself anything. Check in process was slow and very unwelcoming. I tried to get myself a beverage at checkin and was yelled at bc it was not self serve. But then no one served us.
I like everything about the place. The only thing i didn't care for was the food t the buffet
The front desk staff was always very professional and attentive to our needs. The room was clean (booked a King sized bed, got 2 queens instead) and adequate, we had a nice view of the center courtyard, which was nice. The restaurants, while ok, are typical cookie-cutter resort- decent, but nothing special- and the specialty restaurants alternate, which was annoying because we weren't available for some nights, closed others. The most frustrating part is getting your Covid test scheduled and done. The non-hotel staff that administer the test is not helpful and fail to guide you at each step.
Under staff also need to change food
I liked that the resort was very beautiful. The people were friendly, however I was very disappointed that the clubhouse was closed. I brought to small children that was looking forward to the clubhouse. Also I was a diamond plus member, yet I wasn't informed on all the perks that I had. The beach was amazing, the food not so much. Overall my kids had a blast.
The beach is clean and it’s patrolled by security and staff constantly for your safety. Great staff, they go above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. Special thanks to our butler Valentine who made all of our reservations and checked up on us everyday. They need to improve on the food. We visited before the pandemic Dec 2019 and the quality of food has really gone down. Overall I would visit in the future when things return to normal.
It is a very nice hotel. We had an issue with our room 1294 that flooded due to hard rain, I asked that the room would be cleaned to avoid accidents with my children and that request was ignored, I think because it was a flooding should have a better process to insure all rooms get dried to avoid slips and falls.
