After 40 years of travelling the world - this is the worst resort that I have ever stayed at. Stay away. Even though you pay for a deluxe view room - you have a view of a block wall and the dusty service road. The balcony door on your ground floor room cannot lock. So much for security! The room stinks of cleaning chemicals so bad you can t breath. But for $55 to $175US a night you can upgrade to something habitable. Finally after fighting with the front desk and the intervention of your travel agent you get to the room you paid for. However the stress of packing and unpacking 3 times takes away from the relaxation you have worked so hard for and paid so much for. Your vacation here actually starts on day 3. Then you have to be up every day at 6:00am to get a chair at the pool - but don t dare leave those chairs because get this - security takes all of your belongings and packs them away and gives your seats to the next person who s complaining that they can t find a seat by the pool. It s takes you time and frustration to get you belongings back. It only that - you have to identify them and prove those items belong to you!! So much for any hope of a relaxing experience. The food is 3 star at best. The Dominican workers here are beautiful wonderful people - unless they are in management. Management does nothing to resolve the situation. Stay away.
