Relaxing Adults Only Resort
As we are seniors and repeat guests, we felt that the hotel management and staff went out of their way to provide great service and ensure this trip was a wonderful vacation for us. We cannot say enough about all the staff, but must give SPECIAL mention to Alexander "the Great" and all his guest services staff Felix and Nelson - the best bartenders who obviously enjoy their jobs Nancy and Juanita who made sure meal time was a real pleasure Leititia our maid - she made sure our room was perfect The Entire Animation Team - we had a lot of fun joining in the games! Big hello to Frank in Security. Always felt safe. The a-la-carte restaurants are okay. Not all are open every night so you need to check the schedule. The buffet restaurant could really use improvement. The food is usually cold to lukewarm. Maybe they could provide a heat source under the dishes? Also, some dishes did not look appetizing. We aren't fans of cut-up hot dogs, but we did manage find something else to eat. The hotel may be older but they keep the pool and beach areas clean, manicure the grounds, and overall do their best to maintain the buildings and rooms. We left feeling relaxed and would love to return this resort.
Easy to get around, beachbside!
Pros - Small resort, beach area is flat with lots of sand. Villa style buildings only 4 high . Buildings 5 and 6 all have beach views. Large pool area and entertainment crew does their best to entertain. Big thanks to Grey (beach side waitress) loved her spirit and special drink. Jose beach side bartender was also amaizing with a giant smile and enthusiasm every time. Pool foam party awesome. Rooms are a little dated but have a great flow. We were in block 5 great view of beach area and ocean. They state 5 restaurants but really only 4 with one having 2 different menus and the 24/7 beachside changes to a al acart. No reservations required however they fill up fast! Buffet area is huge great selections. Breakfast options are 24/7 beach side and the main lobby buffet both were great. Front desk will tell you no reservations however if you go directly to each al acart they will book you a time. LL Buco (Italian was the best however very loud, design issue) Wine is extra (even under VIP upgrade) except for 1 brand rose, white and red. Beach BBQ was excellent a must do! Pool area is large and central, daily activities with loud music from 3 to 5 every day! Grounds are beautiful and well kept with sculptures everywhere. Animation crew does there best to keep everyone entertained with different themes every night. The crew is beach and pool side during the day. Michel Jackson show was amazing ( usually very cheesy at most resorts this was amazing) Cons We asked for upgrade was told $30 pp per day. We opted for 1 week regular and upgraded for 2nd week they gave us same room for the two weeks. ... you get 20% off excursions (10% of you push under normal rooms) you get lobster dinner served your choice which restaurant (was terrible) top shelf liquor (not wines) a small bottle of rum (we had to ask for ours last day) turn down service ( this is maid coming in turning on a light and flipping the corner of each sheet down) she did a great job the first week of cleaning, towel animals with flowers daily stocked fridge so was not really a big deal. VIP bed area which was more comfortable than the hut loungers. We have always loved the beds at other resorts and better choice of spirits so for us was worth it. Never seen anyone raking out beach area huts or VIP area sand cig buts , small litter was everywhere. Two guys were great with coming by to collect plastic drink cups and plates. Another crew was great with keeping seaweed raked up daily.. could never figure out why lounge area and bed area were never raked out. VIP beds by beach that have no shade screens or covers (all other resorts we have stayed at has something) we used extra towels as a shade break. They were comfortable and as any resort people go down early to claim their own. Small Dominican "wallmart" located beachside owner and his crew were very respectful and did not push they would walk by offering all the normal beachside vendor gifts and a gentle "nada" was all that was required. Beach can walk in either direction and most areas do their best to clear the weeds. Sad this time water was rough still went in just had to get past the first rows of rough water. Beach area thatch huts and chairs are very nice to look at until use then you soon realize sand area is never raked out most huts you can barely squeeze under because sand is too high and a lot of loungers had broken cord (easy fix) . Towels are a joke, you go to side hut beach side sometimes they ask for room number sometimes not, each person allowed only two. Then in room maid gives you towels at night. We ended up keeping extra towels so we would have enough to cover vinyls beds (VIP section) and two extra to use for shade blockers. A mixture of newer and some very stained tattered ones (recycle the old please) Last day a person that just arrived told us she told front desk $50 they stated (not $30) for VIP upgrade was ridiculous so the guy passed her an envelope and told her $100 USA cash would be sufficient. This was sad to hear but should not be surprised. Very weird first week we see a bride and groom walk through buffet everyone claps and cheers...2nd week to our shock same couple walks through (all newbies) clap and cheer we realized right away they were 2 of the animation crew lol! Not a great way to advertise they weddings of that was their intent and with it being adult only don't think it would be a popular choice anyways. Our room needed repairs fridge cabinet was on its last leg and falling apart and room a little dated. We decided no big deal they were closed for 18 months and all areas are doing their beat to try and recover. Do not ask for hotel free shuttle for shopping area...it is not just a concrete block of very high pressure selling the same junk at high prices. Ask for a cab to take you to town just before the Grand Palladium resort area. All in all had a great time definitely not a 5 * and rated as a 3 because of different processes and prices depending on how the public can get what they want handing out cash. It is what it is.. Leaves a bad taste. This easily could be a 5* with upgraded menu choices, upgrading their wine and definitely including a better choice in VIP , revitalizing their rooms and rake the lounge bed areas.
Good Adult only resort for price.
Been back two days. We had a great time. You can be as active or inactive as you like. Meals were overall good. There is always something to eat at buffet although Dominican and seafood nights weren't for us. Was not fond of pasta bar. Found sauces very runny and didn't stick to pasta. We did the Steak a la carte restaurant twice. My husband had ribs once and found them too dry and wouldn't recommend. I had beef tenderloin with bacon and served with mushroom sauce twice and he had it the second visit. Delicious and wish we went every time they were open!!! Also heard fajitas were good. They were open every other day. Rooms are dated. I like a firm mattress but it was like sleeping on a rock.Didn't like the setup of the bathroom. It was open to rest of room. I would have preferred a door for privacy. Shower floor was moldy. Feel this is where renovations are greatly needed. The beach was beautiful and only seemed to have small amount of seaweed contrary to other reports I read. What they need is beach and poolside drink service. Staff were always busy gardening and painting outside of buildings. We found the staff very friendly and hard working..They always had a smile and were happy to please you. We were told of wifi in rooms but only had it first day. After that everyones was down for remainder of the week.TV cable was spotty. Even with the issues listed I would recommend resort. We have to keep in mind that we are in a poor country and standards are not the same as home. It was the lowest priced adult only resort I could find so therefore I wouldn't compare it with the more expensive all inclusive adult only resorts. We would return in future.
