Disliked: Cleanliness
Pros:on a beautiful beach, friendly waiters, maid service and entertainment staff. They tried with fun interactive activities at the pool and at the beach. Grounds are nice and well maintained. Cons:the food was horrible, contaminated water, our family got severe stomach problems. The plastic cups used are not cleaned properly. The front desk staff was rude, mean and nasty. We asked for a late check for my 78 year mom since she was very sick and they said the would get security to escort her out. Chairs on the beach were broken, not enough towels, no conditioner in rooms, the rooms were outdated. The electricity went out 4 times we were in pitch darkness. The pool area is outdated and small.

I think the only thing this place has going for itself, is the staff. If you're trying to work and need internet. There is none. Well they say in the lobby, but when u have many people trying to use the bandwidth, not going to happen. The food is subpar. To many people trying to go thru the same line. Takes 30 minutes at times and depends at what time, 30 minutes to get a plate of pasta. The water in my room was dirty for three days. Went to complain and the front desk says there was nothing they could do. Then on check out, they would not let the Uber driver in the gate to pick me up. Instead, i had to walk all the way to the gate with my luggage. I asked if they could take me and my luggage and up to the gate, they stated no, they do not do that. Will never ever stay here again.

Title: Worst Resort Ever – Traumatizing Experience at Playa Bachata! This place was absolutely horrible! I don’t even know where to start. The room was disgusting — AC didn’t work, fan didn’t work, toilet barely flushed, and everything felt hot and dirty. The pool was filthy and there was only ONE pool open for everyone. The beach was dirty, and it just felt like nobody cared about keeping this place clean. The food was nasty, drinks were disgusting, everything tasted spoiled or watered down. To make things worse, we saw huge roaches in our room and around the resort. That alone was enough to make me want to leave. But the worst part — my daughter got stung by a sea urchin at the beach. The so-called doctor at the resort was so money hungry and unprofessional, using a needle to pull out four sea urchins from her toes right there like it was nothing. No proper care, no compassion, just attitude and greed. My daughter was crying and scared, it was traumatizing to watch. This resort is a complete nightmare. Do not waste your money or time here. I wouldn’t stay here again even if it was free. Playa Bachata is the WORST resort ever.

Great hotel in a beautiful location! Do not book the standard room that sleeps 2-4 people if you have more than 2, as the room doesn't come equipped with the beds - you need to book a family room instead or waste a few hours on your first day trying to get an extra bed. The room is falsely advertised as 2 double beds, or 1 king bed - but the hotel explain that they do not offer double beds and it should say 2 single beds or 1 king bed. Other than that, a lovely stay, and credit to the reception team and manager who understood our frustration and helped us out.

The hotel was pleasant overall, although there are a few areas that could benefit from improvement. For instance, upon arrival, the security personnel did not permit entry until the official check-in time of 3 PM. Consequently, I had to wait outside with my children, as I arrived at 2 PM. Furthermore, the room appeared somewhat outdated, and the air conditioning was not functioning optimally. The food service need some improvement.

Our ac didn't work the entire duration of our stay and the front desk staff did not fix it even after 4 complaints. Outside of this the resort was pretty good, decent bang for your buck. The food was good not great, the pools were in good condition, the beach was good although could use a little clean up. The entertainment staff and shows were phenomenal. The bar staff were some of the best specifically Simon! Tropical ave offered a good selection for shopping, make sure you stop by and see Billy he was the best! All in all it was a decent resort, not great but not terrible. Very good bang for your buck!
