Just arrived, already checked in-extremely pleasant and fast check-in on the day of arrival.
Very pleasant, if you have more than 14 hours on the way is.
Because we only at 22 o'clock arrived, we had little snacks on our room - very attentive!
The breakfast had everything to offer: pancakes, crapes, bread, sausage and cheese, all variations of eggs, fresh fruit shakes, cereals and so on.
Lunch we ate mostly in the snack bar to us-here there is a small selection: fries, burgers, pizza, pasta, salad, fruit, and two sorts of meat, which change daily.
The dinner was fantastic. ... 2 times per week there was a different theme evening ( meixikanisch, dominican). The choice is huge, but you should not every day of all food, since it otherwise every day repeatedly. You on one or 2 dishes, so you always had a varied and high-quality food.
The à la carte restaurant are okay, but still verbesserugsfähig.
The pool is okay, but we stayed here just convenient, if it at the beach too windy. Here are the loungers very close together, compared to the beach.
The beach is very long and wide ripped off, since all 3 hotels could use ( RIU Bachata, RIU Merengue and RIU Merengue village).
Several times on the day the ' drinky, drinky' his bike around the corner levels and brings fresh drinks such as Cuba Libre and so on. To the beach. Also the waiters walk off with stuffed trays and beverages distribute - really great!
The small bay on the back of the hotel is very nice - here there were no chairs. From time to time the towel snap and walk is worthwhile!
The beach in the RIU Bachata it's rather stony, one runs direction Merengue there will be broader and less rocky. The beach is ok, but definitely not Karibik felling on. The small bay, is wonderful.
The cleanliness in the entire hotel is remarkable and there is absolutely nothing to moan about. The friendliness is in all areas great! Any inquires about the well-being, even the gardener!
At the bars is always something going on and also here all were friendly and spread a pleasant dominican atmosphere.
But one point; it could be more spanish music walk.
The rooms are absolutely sufficient and always clean and well presented.
We were completely satisfied and would the book this hotel again at any time. read more

In march we were 2 weeks in the RIU Bachata and were very satisfied with the hotel. We are on the late evening and had a very fast and uncomplicated check-in. In one of the room the climate control didn't work and we got immediately for the one night a different room, until on the next day the error was fixed. On arrival stood in the room a plate with fresh snacks-very attentive! We had in our room in the last week more problems with the airconditioning,it was again and again repaired, unfortunately with moderate success. Our complaints were ... always taken serious there seemed to be a bigger problem. We had absolutely no problems that we a room on the final day, without an extra charge, until 19. hours to keep. We have 2 excursions with extra-tours. Einenmal we were with Andreas personally to the seafood-beautiful -very delicious(there was chicken ),really recommendable if you land and people once relatively local would like to experience. One notices simply that Andreas love the country and thus has one simply the possibility country and people from his point of view to look at. The other route was through it gives, paradise island -amazing-also here we had very nice leaders the us really beautiful day have. We would have liked more with extra tours undertaken, but unfortunately was enough because of the osterfestes (since flippen the dominicans a little from) our time not-a shame. At this point again thanks a lot to extra-tours! read more

Excellent price-performance ratio in all areas. A good place the heimatstress to escape.
During our two week stay, there were three events with extra-tours. 100% recommendation. The contacts have already been made from at home by internet. The tours, the reisebgleiter and company owners Andreas, very recommendable. Small groups, german-language led, an insider's perspective, great value for money, reliable contacts and organization... read more

Huge nice hotel( 500 room) within the Riu-complex of three hotels (all so large ), clean and tidy. All-inclusive, use all three hotels possible, wlan daily 90 minutes in the lobby, super slow, otherwise very expensive!
The guests were mostly (about 90%) very loud and trinkfeste canadians, the hardly from the pool moving (in accordance with the quality of the water!) And also during dinner times no dress code scherten. Management took that no influence. There were a few europeans and on the weekends you wealthy dominicans, which didn't bother us.
Absolutely no Riu-standard for a 5 star hotel (level ..., dining, especially the wine!). This is not true for the excellent service the complete staff (waiters, bar crews, maids, gardeners etc.)! read more

We had a Riu-sparreise and locally we experienced, that we in the Bachata to stay. The hotel is near the small town of maimon directly at the beach. The nature in this region is really great, all perfect green, hilly and beautiful plants. Also the garden of the hotel is beautifully planted and maintained. One may during the day the facilities of the Merengue garden and Merengue village use, only the dinner in the booked hotel. The types of people are mixed, the largest portion, (at least during our travels) canadians and americans have been. Many were due to the ... Spring Break there, so it at the pool bar often quite loud was.
In the lobby there were a few seats, the free internet (wireless) is very slow and the room extension on the day of departure worked also not. It is then only a shower available, in which you almost everything was flooded and constantly other people in front of the door. read more

The hotel is one of the 3 Riu houses - Bachata, merenghe and villages-. On arrival stayed most of the german vacationers in the village and merenghe from the bus, only 2 vacationers with us in Bachata. While we were there, there were about 98 percent of americans (canadians ) in the hotel and that's why it was in the first week very lively, but also amusing. We have our wunschzimmer, which we 7 years ago already once had inhabited, get back. It was spacious and the cleanliness left nothing to be ürbig. Wlan was in the room use, was ... however liable to pay the costs. read more

Very nice hotel, very clean and tidy. Food was also good, wide choice. Entertainment was partly very pushy. Beach is also very clean but nothing for those who like even little further out swimming, because you couldn't walk very far out due to many stones, seaweed and sea urchins. We also have a lionfish seen. So be careful and not too far out. In some places at the beach was bad into the water due to the many stones. The unfortunately wasn't like that great and under a sandy beach in the Karibik i imagine something else for. But apart ... from that very nice and recommendable. Only drawback was the day of departure no room the showers provided to have gotten. We had in public showers for the home ready, since we only in the evening in/out privileges. And if you wanted your room then extend the per hour 10 Dollar cost. So the rather expensive. read more

As we join prenotes to : the hotel is definitely a bit outdated now, but the has its charm and was not noticeable not too bad.
The guest structure was mixed: north americans, russians scandinavians, german-what the age everything was represented.
The internet access could be improved. read more

In maimon first of three hotel, the together
The complex is not huge but you shall enter into force on the feet.
The complex looks very well maintained and makes a solid impression.
Al we in the january were there, were about 80% canadians and the rest of europe in the hotel.
For the canadians is the hotel as for us a hotel on the Canary Islands or baleraren!-). Accordingly we also very much partying.
Be careful with the pool with of the pool bar. Above purely, out below!
Wifi is available but really a joke. You can every ... day 90 minutes free in of the lobby the internet but as is super slow.
If you are in your room also internet must one pay and that is ridiculously expensive. 10 days=50$ and fast something else. Skype worked only with good luck.
What we also did not find so good was the fact that the guests of the other two hotels the complex use
Should/could. There the pools on Bachata the best are, the food better were lots of guests of the other hotel present. Actually okay, if sufficient space would be, but we were really forced beach chairs early in the morning to reserve so we ever had a place and at breakfast felt were more guests from the other hotel entrance as the guests from the Bachata. And brilliant is, the the other hotel cheaper! read more

A very nice hotel complex with big beach, always enough loungers and lots of shade for those who not always in the sun want to lie. Bathing shoe are recommendable. Loungers at the pools always occupied early,
Except in merengee villas. The food is good and tasted is however very monotonous. Our room always top clean. Toilets on the complex are as well always clean however too few. read more

Good hotel, the one without doubts to book can. A large advantage areas in Punta Cana is, that not everything was so crowded. You have at any time of the day the possibility at the beach and at the pool place to find. For swimming in the sea one needs however in principle shoes. Some bodies of the beach there are but also without stones, there one could also without shoes into the water. Who for the hotel interested should the information to the neighboring hotel Riu merenge reputation. The hotels are in fact assembled and you could use both ... areas. Only the dinner you have booked in the area.
As mentioned, everything completely reasonable. I would like to particularly emphasize the à la carte restaurant. The italian restaurant and especially the steakhouse, with the usual, german standard easily match or exceed that often.
In the lobby is very slow wireless internet available free of charge. The rooms are with flat screen. The flat screen tv are equipped with card reader. So you could also the possibility, in the evening times a own movie. read more

45 days RIU Bachata in Puerto Plata/maimon
It should a dream holiday will, it was a nightmare! 6 weeks vacation, everyday the same bland food. In the so-called specialty restaurant (steakhouse and italian ) you had to the register. Also there the same food everyday (3 main courses to choose from). About the food is definitely saved, at alcohol not, 24 hours all inclusive, opening hours of the bar until 7 in the morning:00 hours, of sleep no trace. 3 weeks we had no functioning air conditioning, complaints pointless!. On the complex walked the rats around, which every morning ... with giftspritzen to body have been placed. There were two pools, one with pool bar. Here was the water warmer, it was because of the fact, that guests itself the whole day not of the stools moved and their droppings inside running?
Only ray of hope the staff were, from the maids to the waiter, all efficient, friendly and helpful. read more

Excellent hotel with very friendly staff. The people were always very helpful and had always a smile on the lips. The food was also great, well-balanced and diverse. Posting two restaurants (italian and steak house) was a bit unhappy, as the places very limited and the reservations only in the morning could be made. However everything else was spectacular. read more

A lovely vacation before the peak season with international audience. The hotel has a nicely kept hotel. In particular the possibility to eat outside borders the neighboring hotel Merengue from. ( the Merengue village was closed). The complex the neighboring hotels could shared are. Animation we didn't need, didn't bother however also not. At the beach are shady places no rarity, due to the vegetation, the Caribbean like leaves. Snorkel is a must for the baggage, the offered excursions make for variety. read more

We had actually Riu Mambo (now RIU Merengue village) want to book, this was not buchhbar since this time was closed. Therefore (due to the high number of people who would recommend on this page), we are in the RIU Merengue establishments. We after 3 days stay and leave in the RIU Bachata moved.
Our assessment for the hotel Bachata in all points in the Merengue too, with only one exception, the main restaurant RIU Merengue. Since this in our opinion definitely not more Riu standard is. It is dark, confusing divided and very cramped. The individual buffets in the ... restaurant are very far apart, so you 'long' is all buffets to reach.
Our impression no einzelmeinung is, you can each breakfast and lunch in the RIU Bachata see, where not a few guests daily (on blue bracelet recognizable) in the sister hotel ate. Only for dinner this was not possible, therefore our move. From discussions with other guests we know that we no exception were.
We think here Riu do something, because the staff in the two hotels are all really good, efficient, friendly and read off nearly each desire from the eyes. Before, we were already 5 times in this complex (Riu Mambo), and after these 3 beautiful weeks we are going to come again. read more
