We had a leak on the ceiling in the bathroom. It was dripping into the sink and on the sink all day and night. The room phone was not working. We contacted hotel staff by What’s App and in person. The drip was not fixed. Our friends who stayed in a different room had the same problem.

Great cleaning personal, entertainment was great Dominican show of the night. Horrible check in, waited to long. Room were available after 5pm. Showers ban in 2 of 3 rooms. Water spread all over. I requested the 3 rooms to be together and I got the three room in opposite and different floor. It was a nightmare.

Something else i felt that the food in the buffet needed to taste better. Instead of waiting to be served coffee i think there should be a self service option where people can make their own tea and coffee.

I got to the hotel at about 1:30pm at which time i was told that no rooms were ready and i have to wait till 3:00pm after returning to get a room, there was a hotel staff working on the lock, room was not ready and given a different room. This room now had a clogged shower, over flowing and water running into the room like a pool. I was told by the staff that it was my fault for not placing a towel to block the water. no accountability on hotel just reflection. Restaurant food was limited and simply horrible. I would never recommend or go back there ever again.

Our stay was incredible. The beach was clean and the staff all work so hard. A few people in particular we loved to see everyday. The restaurants were all great. Buffet was always the last option which was always a hit or miss. A few themed nights were good. The gift shop is well enough stocked and we had to make a few emergency stops there. The drinks were strong and did the job, good service as well. First time in Dominican, was an absolute pleasure. We also booked saona island experience/all day excursion through the resort and was 10/10 (pretty touristy though). The landscapers work very hard and plants looks healthy and lush.

The room was really clean and spacious, the pools were big and deep and the water was clean (and didn't smell like chlorine, wich is a bonus), the food and drinks could have been better, but what took the cake was the staff! The customer service was amazing, they made sure we were always comfortable and had everything we needed, they were so funny and understandable, they made my week! Already planning to come back on october with more family members!
