The property, beach, and kids club were amazing. Be careful booking on expedia. We booked a preferred ocean front swim out with two double beds. Apparently this room doesn't exist. When we got there we were put in a room with a King size bed and a pull out couch. We made it work but that is not what we booked. The room was also the farthest room away from the preferred club. Again we made this work but was not what was booked. This isnt the first time somwthing like this has happened to us using expedia. Also be prepared to tip the staff, especially the bar tender. Basically if you didnt have money in your hand he would not serve you. Food and service not the greatest and actually fell slightly below my already low expectations.
The resort was beautiful the staff was amazing would like to mention that Nilvio was a awesome host and that Adrian and Cassandra at the pool bar are two of the best bartenders ive ever met as well as wonderful people,the only disappointment was that the resort had advertised 11 restaurants did not mention that only 2 or 3 were open each evening not all 11 daily kind of false advertising..but overall love this resort.

Goof is great. Room are excellent. Pool is ok, can be better. Lazy river is great. Beach is totally covered withdrawal beach, one cannot swim at all, I understand it is out of the resort control

Liked: Staff & service
The hotel is very nice and the staff was super nice ready to serve. However, the restaurants and the bars were missing the small details and were not ready for our large group, which we reserved well in advance. Some of our rooms had damaged furniture, rooms smelled and the views were subpar. And then we were charged for an upgrade, when we had paid for a specific room in advance. Not sure if we will return.
Beach was full of seaweed not cleaned until last day of our trip. Cheap alcohol was served, no basic condiments such as olives and grapefruit juice. Took too long to receive our food at the restaurants so we would miss the shows. We would arrive at 7 for dinner and by the time we received dinner it was 3 hours later. Staff was friendly and tried their best to make it up to us.

The resort is brand new and they don’t seem ready. The staff is clueless of what’s where, restaurant hours, and general directions. Like they have no experience or general knowledge outside of their responsibility. Made me wonder if they’ve even walked the grounds or seen a map. The food display was great but was way off. All the hot food was cold (unless it was grilled items), the cold food was at room temperature (ice cream and desserts), the mangu (smashed plantains, common dish in DR) was dried up as was the fried cheese. The airconditioning was on freeze mode which probably affected the food but also bars and general areas. People were in blankets and bundled together for body warmth and the staff even complained about it in the shopping areas. The servers brought out the wrong food at each meal and took forever to take orders. The shuttle drivers were great, poolside grills and pizza makers were great, overall staff very friendly, and the place looked great as long as you dint look closely or touched anything because it all looked like it was poor engineering and loosely held together. Not to mention it’s about 1.5 hours away from the airports.
I went 10/2025, I’d say give it a year to work out the kinks before considering this place as it is beautiful and has lots of potential with proper management.
The hotel has potential, but there were several letdowns during our stay. For starters, the buffet wasn’t open every night for dinner, and when it was, the food variety was quite limited. There was no ice cream offered — not even basic flavors like vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry, which is something I think should be a must, especially for families with kids.
The rooms were comfortable and clean — no complaints there. However, the drinks were disappointing. I tried a few different mixes, and unfortunately, none were good enough to enjoy, so I ended up skipping most of the cocktails.
The overall vibe of the hotel is very quiet and relaxing, which could be a plus for those looking to completely unwind. But if you’re into ambiance, music, or more lively energy, you might get bored here. Entertainment was minimal, and the sports bar wasn’t even open every day.
Out of all the dining options, the steakhouse was the best, though I’d rate it as just “ok” — not amazing, but decent.
In summary, it’s a calm place to disconnect, but I wouldn’t return unless they improved the food, drinks, and entertainment options.
Staff was amazing and attentive. The entire resort was clean and felt very safe. It was my first time traveling outside of the United States and I would definitely return!
Everything was perfect! We stayed for 3 days, it was perfect for a quick getaway. Keep in mind it’s about 90 minutes away from the airport so be sure to book transportation services, the resort itself does not provide it but Amstar is on the property. You have access to Secrets as well so overall everything was amazing.
First Room didn’t work AC. Smell to Humidity. Second were OK (cute) but small. Need more personnel in every area (Reception, Bars etc). Food need more improvements compared to others same or close area and similar prices.
The hotel facilities were very nice, the beach and pool were awesome. The staff was always friendly.
The service was slow, often saying they would do something and then never doing the task (like bringing in a roller bed when they ran out of rooms that fit 3 people). The room smelled like smoke and we were told they would "spray the room" which wasn't helpful but also never happened. The lifeguards at the water slides were very hands off, even when a first aid issue came up under their watch. When asked for ice for the first aid issue, it never arrived.
The food wasn't good.
Hotel is brand new . Food and staff were great . The one thing that I didn’t like was the beach . The wave of the beach is too strong . If you go to this hotel just keep in mind that you will just in the pool no beach
