Don't waste your money

The staff was very nice but the beach was dirty, and there are military people who patrol the beach at night with machine guns - so going to the beach at night was not very relaxing. I also got very sick from the food - violently ill. The only nice part of the resort are the lobby and one of the pools. If you are looking for a beautiful sand and water and you like to star gaze this is NOT the place to go. It is not worth the money - you will be disappointed.

When i think of vacationing I think of a different place different environment, culture, food, entertainment, etc. At this place i felt like i was in a hotel in the US. the food was american, the music was amereican, activities were not fun at all the the staff weren't freindly either. My boyfriend and I were planning on having a lot of fun, but this was the most boring vacation we've ever had. In order to have fun we had to go out of the resort. I do not recomend this place at all.
good experience!

I am glad we did not rent a car, driving is crazy in PP! The food was good (coming from a picky eater!) & the service/entertainment staff was very friendly. Drinks were always prepared well (and strong!). Definitely upgrade to the spa room, the a/c is much better & the rooms are more what American's are use to. Plus you get use of the spa pool, Adult's only & very relaxing. I'd stay at this hotel again! Go to Ocean World, try the sealion encounter! Book your tours before you go to DR as they are sold out quickly.
Rooms/Food Not Resort Quality

The lobby of the resort is very chic; the grounds manicured immaculately. The downfall comes when you get to your room. The rooms are dated, some leak, some the air conditioning doesn't work. Housekeeping changed all towels except the wash cloths and each day we had to call for wash cloths. The food in the buffet halls was not appetizing at all. While the staff responded in a timely manner to issues, there were TOO MANY issues for a resort.
Best vacation EVER!

From our arrival to our departure the staff went out of their way to take care of us. The room was nice, well kept and conviently located in the middle of the complex. Lots of stuff to do if you are motivated or you could just lay on the beach and soak up the sun. I will come back again!
