"Hotel is amazing"

"A great romantic place, with wonderful staff and services. We went on our honeymoon as a relaxing getaway. Even on the rainy days (we came during hurricane melissa passing by) we still had a great time just exploring and taking in the beautiful surroundings. The sunny days we spent a lot of time just sitting on the beach! Most days you couldn't swim due to rough water, but even then you were able to walk along the water and the beach was shallow enough you could safely get in the water a little bit. The room was good, the bed was comfy and the bathroom was large and made it very easy to shower throughout the day going from beach to restaurants and excursions. The restaurants were pretty good, especially chez isabelle which was a great experience. The night entertainment was hit or miss but we did enjoy the options a lot. We especially liked the Michael Jackson impersonator, the circus show, and also many of the bands were great to just listen to and sip a drink. The bars were great my wife loved the bars and she was very happy with the drinks especially the martinis and coco locos. The atmosphere was just great, it felt truly tropical and the architecture and buildings felt like you were living in splendor for your time there. No kids which added to the peaceful atmosphere. There was some drunken rowdiness from some other guests, but generally people were very respectful, quiet, and it was a peaceful environment especially by the beach."

"The staff was friendly and the hotel was gorgeous had a blast at the riu parties as well as their night club on the resort ! I was highly dissapointes by the food and them having very few actual doninican options i feel they need to bring some more authenticity into the food less americanized would make rhe experience rhat much more special ! "

"The staff were great & all the amenities! Food was delicious! Would definitely book again!"

"Pleasantly surprised by this last minute, very budget friendly vacation. Beautiful, clean and spacious room, lots of restaurants to choose from, and no reservations needed. There were 2 restaurants that required reservations, but you can easily do that via an app. The beach and pool were very nice and there were plenty of bars. Food was really good! Close to the airport. Overall 10/10. "
