In comparison to last hotel it had always enough deck chairs at the sea like by the pool. A big plus! A good, just usable safe! ☺ in general good value for money. Desk were great!
Maid service was not always correct. Water in the fridge was often forgotten to fill up, as well as the replacement of the shower-and hand towels. ☹ plates in the restaurant were often not clean. ☹ the themed restaurants are not recommendable, meal not suitable to the country, very long waiting periods ☹ photos at the beach, extremely expensive, wrong prices!
Besides that it ... was a lovely vacation read more

The hotel is already very worn, that you knew from the cathedral. Rep unfortunately now. Rooms were however always clean. That's why it can be bearable. Very well maintained the outdoor area/ garden.
The chairs at the beach (beach was very narrow, as plentiful sand washed away) are worn, dirty or broken.
The food in the main restaurant was okay - however nothing special. Taste-neutral and cold. In addition there was always a huge rush and long queue. The staff worked very hard - had the crush, but not easy.
Complaints (broken shower, broken toilet flush) were always very quick ... to fix it.
Guest mixture is very on one side-much eastern bloc party-crazy americans
All in all fits the value for money (if you not too much expected)-the question arises, whether the hotel nor worth 4 stars is. The hotel we would however not recommend. read more

The rooms are in several houses and thus well arranged. The condition the hotel is very worn out... A renovation is necessary. Mold & co! The all-inclusive services are ok. I was on business there. One night or 1,5 days one bears it up. My private holiday i would not spend there. read more

We were there the last stopover to the airport Punta Cana. For a short break it is perfectly ok. The rooms are already ageing, the staff makes the impression a ferienfabrik. The internet must still be paid, which nowadays free service should be. Otherwise offers the complex everything, what the simple tourist heart desires there. read more

The hotel complex was very nice and tidy. In the buffet-style restaurant was something for everyone, however flew birds and nibbled the cake buffet. The beach is very nearby and is also very well maintained. The loungers are partly worn out and broken (early enough reserve). A time we got on the beach used towels (check!). Our room was huge, however there were still hair from the previous guests around. Besides it smelled very moggig in our room. We had the whole week the balcony door open, to somewhat tolerable. A room changing was not possible, because the hotel was ... booked. English spoke only the least. read more

The lobby has positive urlaubsflair from. You feel very welcome. They are located at a lot of smaller buildings. The hotel complex is itself beautifully built. If one superficially looks, then may be not immediately shortcomings in the cleanliness on (later in the individual evaluation points, more). Internet like for instance wi-fi internet access with private device is not possible. You have to the internet with the available computer's expensive to buy.
In the evening our arrival we wanted on open restaurant or something to eat. Clearly it was at 21:30 hours, but was the available buffet so empty ... swept and partly also not more beautiful to look at, so i only a dry rolls handle. To the rolls was a beer enough, which one well drink. The alcoholic mix drinks are mostly with more than 50% soft drinks mixed, so you too few alcohol in the drinks couldn't complain. So, if you stay here a high the cups want to do is right at home here. In all the bars and disco the impregnated in 0.2 liter plastic cups been enough. The exception is the lobby bar and visited restaurant.
From young to old, all age groups were available. In the mass were russian nationals in this hotel (estimated 90%). But also spanish and english-speaking guests were represented. read more

The hotel to and for itself was nice and the hotel complex very nice. The beach was clean and really great.
That food was very tasty and also diverse, as except the buffet still à la carte restaurant there is.
The cleanliness at the table and partly also in other areas leaves much to be desired.
The room was big enough, we had a junior suite with jacuzzi-which in 14 days never been cleaned-we even cleaned!
The bathroom was big also completely reasonable some of things broken as the towel hanger on the sink where the screw out.
Near the ... friendliness of the staff gave also flaws, at the front desk were some of the staff very rude.
The guest service is partially very indifferent. It was for example not possible to get a packed lunch as we a trip booked and at 6 o'clock exit had, the guest service said we cannot, for breakfast buffet and eat before-only this time still no buffet is built! All snack bars were closed so we and the day before rolls and butter wrapped around a bit for breakfast to have.
You could very many trips around the island over the travel company to book. There is also a bus (free of charge) in the Palma Real shopping center runs where some souvenir shops and boutiques, as well as the Hard Rock Café. read more

We were as a young couple 2 weeks there, it was great. Room with sea view is worthwhile really! The beach is very beautiful, in the water it had at this time unfortunately a lot of seaweed. At the beach this but every morning from the staff away. The food is really great delicious and very varied, i have stayed in many all-inclusive hotels, but so good food there was never. Hotel plant is beautifully, very well maintained. At the weekend came lots of young party, there was a lot going on. In the week it was quiet, but never ... boring. Great hotel, would recommend it to anyone! read more

The hotel area is large and very nice laid out with lots of paths and palm trees and decorations. The hotel works on the first glance ready, but you saw again and again someone at something crafts, around the complex to beautify. There is lots of different apartments with 2 and sometimes 3 floors on which the individual rooms are.
The hotel, the front desk and the whole complex velvet pools with fountains, swimming pool and beach area around the hour kept clean and well maintained. After a or other downpour in night and by surreptitiously granting residence, mostly only ... 1-2 days claim, the thatched roofs not only repaired, but renewed for the best comfort to ensure.
The age groups the vacationer all are represented, from the baby to the pensioner. One is not many germans at, but some british, lots of spaniards and more russians. read more

Hotel on the first glance very nice, impressive lobby etc. The rooms are very simple however functional, most of the at least. It the cleanliness it is not so far, extra wishes like for instance a 3. Towel for 2 persons ignored. Use please definitely the in-room safe, the maids steal as the drei raben! US' only ' 100 €unfavorable reviews, but it is much more about the principle. The hotel management does nothing, thus has the staff the freebies in order to continue steal. Without consistency! Although you can complaint with the police reimburse, only you should then to ... the negotiation unable to leave the country, passports are eingzogen! So much time unfortunately no tourist, know that very well, finally, we must return to at home around the to earn money, the you then again steal could! Really bad! read more

It is a very nice hotel complex directly at the beach, the every day cleaned. The location of the room in blocks divided. Unfortunately the rooms not all in good condition, furniture partly already outdated, window can not close, outlets not really on the wall attached, and the cleanliness can sometimes to be desired. The rooms are partly in need of renovation, but it is working!
But you can complaint at the front desk insert, for example with pictures to prove it and then gets one also a new room allocated, the one before regard and then decide. I am ... 2 times moved and had then but a very nice room with a view of the sea. I would like here the boys thanks, in move always gladly helped, especially for your honesty, muchas gracias franklin! Room service was good, my room was cleaned daily, but here of course not with the german thoroughness compare solltie. Airco in the room loud, but okay, you during the night off!
Toilets and pool area may still more kept clean.
In the lobby and in the dining room should you air conditioners hanging.
Cocktails should be in glasses serve!
There guests from britain many eastern europeans to my vacation period in this hotel, however luckily also americans, canadians, french, brazilian and also many from the adjacent südamerikansichen countries, all very outgoing and friendly.
You should definitely spanish language-with english alone comes one unfortunately not very far, as most of the staff very little english knowledge possess and almost only spoke spanish.
Some of the staff at the reception and lobby are also a very good german!
The food at the buffet could really tolerable are! I get diarrhea, as well as many of the other guests. But you can on the various restaurants dodging and reserve. These are all super good and delicious! Also there is at the beach still a restaurant with local specialities, and you can also at the beach a burger, fries and salad get. The burgers are really good!
The soul of the hotel are clear the employees. She are very friendly, willing to help and courteous. However, you should treat them with respect, because they, too, must be - exactly like we all-hard for your money work. And if it does not so quickly, i think the not so bad, because there is also only humans and located on vacation and should the 'immediately' drop! You have time on vacation, or not?
Guest service and reception very helpful and friendly! Complaints, questions or other matters are immediately dealt with. So i have at least learned.
Big praise also to the entertainment, the really sensational evening shows perform. In the afternoon various games, like for instance darts, Midget Golf, beach volleyball and so on also dance lessons at the beach with naomi are very popular. But you won't hassled, definitely in these games and i thought it was very commendable. At this point a kind regards to naomi and her team. I love you, darling!
In the disco caribe you can then implement, what you in the dance lesson learned. Also to certain evenings entertainment- teyquilla is delicious! And dad mixes a very good tequlla -sunrise.
To mention would be still pool and beach bar! Here i would like to sincerely for the good and friendly service to everyone, in particular Nelson, Francesco and reyna! Thank you to you! You are so wonderful!
If i this hotel again book it, then only because of the love people and employees, who work there.
There must be a lot of changes will be, but that is matter of hotelmanegemants, you should the employees not blame, because they are really doing everything - in spite of the flaws-so that one felt comfortable and a relaxing hotel there can experience. read more

2 time we have room need to change, the first room was dirty moldy and the odor was at commode. Awful, so on the first evening yet room changing. To 2 days in another room air conditioning broken, again room changing. It seemed like first everything ok, but then bed bugs!
Hotel doctor said there were mosquito bites, on the first glance it looked it, but there were more and more. In deutschlanddann the arzterfuhren we are bed bugs. People if you a beautiful hotel want, then don't choose this. Staff are a very nice and endeavored, but the rooms ... are very run down.
The food is very good, but the russians make very much broken in this hotel with their anti-social nature. It did me in the soul hurt to see, which daily in the garbage hiked. Even the children did their plate full up nothing went out, great erziheung the parents, take what is, we have paid for, this setting the russians. Simply only terriblly. read more

After a room changing we had at least a lockable balcony door, in the first room on the ground floor was already broken and only by a pencil for plugging hypereosinophilia, which no trouble from the anchoring push could.
The cleanliness take the cleaning ladies anyway not really seriously, in the bathroom only time roughly the floor dried and only once a week mopped.
Stains and mold in mattress and pillows seem not to care.
Bedbugs and cockroaches we met guests.
Who tried with German as further-nil return.
Jackhammer and so on in the morning around 9.
All together we ... had expected much more and were ultimately glad that we no diseases in/out privileges. read more
