Les points forts : Propreté et personnel et service
I give this property a favorable review because it seems to be one of the best in the area. However, if this is your first trip to the area or to the DR in general, it’s a fair warning that the hotel will be a letdown compared to other hotels in other countries (particularly the United States). For example, we didn’t ever have hot water for showers, the electricity went out for several hours, the air conditioning stayed off for several more hours, and the breakfast was very limited (though we were grateful there was breakfast at all). The view of the ocean from the hotel is phenomenal, but the area in front of and all around the hotel is not cared for. There isn’t safe parking at the hotel that we could see. The coastal sidewalk right across the street (called the Malecon) is littered with trash everywhere. It’s actually quite sad. That walk should be a national treasure but it’s not kept up. Beyond that, you have plenty of street beggars who will approach you to ask for money, especially if you have light skin.
Overall it was a good education and we were satisfied with the hotel, though disappointed with the area around it. That’s not the hotel’s fault, but something travelers would benefit from knowing.
