The hotel is of course simple, but the price for it by Dominican standards is very good. Plus, the area itself, who needs a shallow sea and completely without waves, is generally ideal. But a lot of people on the beach about privacy is out of the question, plus a lot of locals. The hotel consists of two parts garden and beach and all go to the same beach.

The hotel is of course simple, but the price for it by Dominican standards is very good. Plus, the area itself, who needs a shallow sea and completely without waves, is generally ideal. But a lot of people on the beach about privacy is out of the question, plus a lot of locals. The hotel consists of two parts garden and beach and all go to the same beach. Therefore, you need to borrow sunbeds very early. We knew about all the nuances of the hotel from our travel agent and it did not frighten us. We are early birds and therefore it was not problematic for us to come and take a sunbed at all. Another plus is that there is a snack bar on the beach and, as I understand it, it works almost around the clock and you can always have a snack with fast food there. Pour cocktails and other alcohol. We really liked the famous mom juan and the banana mom) There are still moments along the beach, these are annoying merchants, but this is only for the first few days, then they recognize you and lose interest in you and towels are issued against a deposit, so it’s better not to lose it) A big plus of this hotel is his animation team. Try very hard very funny sometimes a little obsessive. So for those who are looking for a relaxing holiday, I think this hotel is not worth choosing. In general, the animation is standard but fun for everyone. The evening shows are well put together. Also after eleven you can go to the club but there is only local music and a lot of local people. For a change, you can go, the main thing is that the bar there is free. There is no children's animation at all, and in general the hotel is more suitable for youth recreation for little money. Our travel agent immediately understood what to recommend to us and it took about fifteen minutes to choose a hotel. And around the country he suggested where to save money and where it is better to take excursions. By the numbers they knew what would happen. But the measures are not new, but they did not change from the significant problems - this is a bad toilet flush. But this problem seems to be in many rooms. The food at the hotel is very good, at least when compared with the same Turkey. There are no problems with meat, sometimes even seafood plus a la carte restaurants and you get quite a decent variety. In general, if you are not too demanding tourists, then you will like the hotel.

And so, let me start by saying that we are here now. And if there was an opportunity to reselect another hotel or country, I would do it. Let's start with the fact that they simply don't like Russians here. If some American is standing nearby, then they simply do not notice the Russian. Service is terrible.

Let's start with the fact that they simply don't like Russians here. If some American is standing nearby, then they simply do not notice the Russian. Service is terrible. Settled for a long time, for a normal room was asked to throw 50 dollars. They are not interested in Alenka and Korkunov, do not get fooled by this nonsense.
The trash begins from the very first minutes, when you run to take a shower after a 12-hour flight - there are 2 towels for two in the room !!!! ! Attempts to beg for at least one for the legs and for the face turn into a complete failure, they will tell you their "okay", but they will not bring anything. Moreover, these towels are taken every day before lunch, and new ones, if you're lucky, are brought only in the evening! Live as you want for your 130-140 thousand rubles.
Restaurant. If the Americans have arrived, then do not even try to wait for a banal fork and knife to be brought to you. They carry tea on trays to Americans, but Russians don't even have spoons, as well as places in the restaurant itself. You run after them, you beg. By the way, there is no boiling water either. And if there is boiling water, then there is no tea leaves.
There is no wi-fi!!! ! None! Nowhere! ! Don't hope.
Cleaning. Is she here at all? Putting shampoo and filling (not replacing! ) The bed is not yet cleaning.
Of the round-the-clock "all inclusive" only hamburgers and fries on the beach. Nothing to eat by the pool.
By the way, the beach. There are not enough sun loungers, especially in the shade. Spending time on a sun lounger on the beach under a canopy is an unheard of luxury. There are no beach towels at 8-8.30 in the morning either. Who had time - he ate.
All in all, I don't recommend going here. You are not welcome here and they will show it with all their appearance

Yesterday we returned from the sunny Dominican Republic))) A little about the rest in this hotel. About the room fund. Yes, probably just 4 *. Read a lot of reviews before the trip, and diametrically opposed. We lived in Gardena. Small houses of 2-3 floors, well-groomed territory, friendly and smiling staff, explaining themselves at the level of gestures, but everything is clear and solvable.

Yesterday we returned from the sunny Dominican Republic)))
A little about the rest in this hotel.
About the room fund.
Yes, probably just 4 *. Read a lot of reviews before the trip, and diametrically opposed.
We lived in Gardena. Small houses of 2-3 floors, well-groomed territory, friendly and smiling staff, explaining themselves at the level of gestures, but everything is clear and solvable.
The room was cleaned daily, linen and towels changed too. All gels, lotions, shampoos - everything was added every day. Yes, it is humid, yes, nothing dries, everyone knows where they are going, now the rainy season is ending, the humidity was 95%, they got used to it in a day.
Yes, old furniture, but not falling apart. Sometimes the magnetic keys jammed, but they changed them at the reception and gave new ones.
About nutrition.
It's disgusting to read reviews, such as monotonous, few fish, tasteless fruits... etc. Let's start with the fact that in 10 days we tried only a third of what they cook there. There are always 3-4 types of meat, various salads, cheese and sausage cuts, fruits and vegetables. Cold and hot drinks, fruit, milk and all kinds of cola, tea, coffee, cocoa, insanely delicious ice cream. And about pastries, jams, some unthinkable sauces, flavored oils, you can generally keep silent)))
Each dinner was decorated in a new way restaurant.
The waiters serve well, they will bring wine, drinks, if you don’t want to get up yourself, and the table will be quickly removed and, if something spills or falls on the floor, a warning chip is immediately placed and the cleaning service cleans everything up.
Therefore, complaining about food is simply not serious. Yes, there is little seafood, yes, not always tasty fruits. Pineapple and passion fruit are simply divine. Green passion fruit is sour, but the Cubans advised adding strawberry jam, just fly away !!!
But we are good too! See how much food is put on the plate and how many plates are put on the table, and is it all eaten?
If you haven’t eaten at the restaurant for three times, then you can continue at the beach bar, almost around the clock.
About the beach.
Not very big, yes, but there was always enough space for everyone, sun loungers, both old and new, but everyone has beach towels, covered and enjoy. Who wants to lie in the shade, yes, you need to borrow early in the morning or in the evening. Nothing was ever lost. The beach is cleaned, but many vacationers are just pigs. For garbage, there is where to put everything.
During the day, animators work on the beach, well done, they do not let you get bored. They played bingo and other games, got coffee and rum for the victory, did aerobics.
The evenings were very interesting and entertaining. On a special site between Beach and Garden, an open cafe with tables and chairs, a small stage is organized. Every evening live music and Latin American dances. Animators help and teach how to dance correctly, they themselves move divinely. And then, nearby in a closed hall, a daily show with dance groups begins, they have never been repeated. They enjoyed what they saw.
About the cons. The biggest minus is the Russian tourists themselves, who, at times, do not know any measure and nothing. Alcohol, alcohol, alcohol, and then triumphal performances on stage or on the beach. Under the general laughter and finger-pointing, "Russo Turisto". We were ashamed of all of us from time to time. The bulk of vacationers are Latin Americans, there are Americans, and Italians, and more. Everyone drinks, but only we behave so ugly!!!
What you need to know in terms of life. We need adapters, we bought houses for forty rubles and there were no problems. You can buy on the spot for 2-3 dollars. The American toilet system is unusual, but it works. The clothes were dried when they left, the air conditioner was turned on to the hottest and things were hung closer.
About excursions. Used only AnexTour. We just decided for ourselves. Expensive, definitely, but if possible, you need to see a little. We visited the capital of Santo Domingo, the colonial part, the excellent guide Nastasya, historically savvy inside and out, I liked visiting the cave lakes, unforgettable, just a lost world))) We took the second excursion on Samana Peninsula. Also unforgettable. We saw the Atlantic, this is not the gentle Caribbean Sea, but, indeed, the ocean, very beautiful. We were in the small town of Santa Barbara, where a number of fabulous colored houses stand on the main street. There we also visited Bacardi Island, where the eponymous video about rum was filmed. A beautiful, palm-sunny island, where they bought and sunbathed, saw a huge starfish, but, alas, in the hands of a local photographer)))
Someone used the services of Pedro-Tour. We were satisfied, we just didn’t dare, they said that the drivers were a little crazy there and therefore didn’t go. The prices are lower.
Internet. You can use the pool for an hour, very weak. It is better to buy a local SIM card for $5 and live in clover, talking for hours with the whole world for a penny.
Small conclusion.
You have to go and have fun. But with a positive attitude, you'll be fine : )
I liked the rest, we are thinking to come again, but with our grandchildren, because the sea is beautiful, especially for children.

Super vacation in September 2018, Boca Chica Hamaka Garden! Flight from Moscow to Punta Cana airport 12 hours, Nordwind company, food 1 time (yes, it's sad, but if you take sausages with you and drink in a dutik, then everything becomes more fun). The staff (stewardesses) are as friendly as possible, drink tea, coffee, water and smile), blankets are also handed out at the first request.

The staff (stewardesses) are as friendly as possible, drink tea, coffee, water and smile), blankets are also handed out at the first request.
From the flight Moscow-Dominican Republic only positive emotions, but quite a long time (12 hours).
But when they arrived...
View of the terminal - straw farm...
But this is only at first glance. Everything inside is perfectly clean.
And everyone smiles at you!
Starting from passport control to porters. They do not understand you, but they smile (maybe they are smoking something).
Dominican Republic is a country where there are more non-smokers, but
you can smoke (upon arrival) everywhere,
There is a separate area for smokers in the departure area.
I quit smoking at home. No smoking in Russia (15-FZ, non-advertising)
We drove to the hotel ~ 2 hours, transfer from Pegasus, comfortable and informative.
The guide's name was Genghis. There is nothing more to add here.
Cheerful, and competently selling the services of his tour operator, representative.
The tour was also bought from Pegasus (non-advertising), expensive, but they did not regret it, the accompaniment was complete.
Russian guide Alexander was constantly in the group, he solved all the problems (where to put the phone when you go swimming) instantly.
We took an excursion "Eagle and Tails" to the island where they filmed "Pirates of the Caribbean". Don't take it anywhere
the thrill of a trip on a catamaran is a flight over the Atlantic!! ! ! !
Do not sit down (splashes fly), it is better to go straight ahead - to the bridge! (See a movie about the Titanic, drowned there))
Other tour operators (I don’t know everyone, but ... ) bring people there on motor boats, such as a cauldron. The trip turns into torture instead of pleasure. ).
Pros of living
1. - the sea, no, not so. SEA! ! !
At first it seems like some kind of nonsense, and then you understand the whole trick, if you want a wave - swim over the reefs, if you want to swim - just swim, if you have a mask, then even excursions are not needed)
1. - alcoholic drinks. Bartenders interfere with everything. Sometimes they look at you very surprised. The most delicious drink is vodka + tomato juice and a mojito drink. Rum (pure) is difficult to drink. Mamujuana also. This is their national drink in hotel bars - dick. Tried it elsewhere - delicious.
2. - 3rd floor - no mosquitoes (a lizard lived on the balcony, but did not eat anything).
3. - 19 bungalows, exit directly to the Nautilus bar and Italian restaurant. We were there 2 times, we liked it, the mojito is delicious there, and vodka is also served.
4. - to the main restaurant (well, where to eat) is very close.
5. - permanent fitness, there is no elevator in the garden. If you forgot something in the room - run and jump, sing songs along the way.
6. - food! Everything is very tasty and varied.
There are cons, but they are most likely from not understanding the situation.
Tips to make life easier:
- read the last paragraph with asterisks (this will greatly facilitate understanding and living)
- take a rope and clothespins with you, but do not hang things on the balcony. Humidity is high and nothing dries, and in the room under the air conditioner everything is blown and dry in the morning.
- there are 5 outlets in the room, even on the balcony, but they are all American. However, the hair dryer socket is universal, Russian chargers are plugged in normally. There is also a USB connector in the TV set-top box, you can also charge it (Chingiz said this).
- spoons. The restaurant only has plastic and small ones, if you want to eat porridge or soup in the morning, take it from home.
- currency exchange is a separate issue. first, dollar = euro (that's it, the euro is not in the price), at the hotel the dollar is ~ 45 pesos (as of September 28.2018), on the card the dollar is 40 pesos minus another 5%. Normally changed in the state office. The peso rate is 49.70 per dollar.
- the Internet. It seems like there is on the beach, but I took a SIM card in the office "Pedro-Tour" operator Claro.
2 dollars - sim card, 3 dollars - for 5 days of internet (no speed! , but unlimited). I threw another $ 5 and then extended the Internet for 5 days, and spoke the rest with Russia (14 rubles outgoing call. I fucking ate from the offers of our mobile operators and took out SIM cards of mega-figures and tele-fucks).
If you need someone, then the description of the connection commands is here https://www. tripadvisor. en/ShowTopic-g147288-i27-k10917966-Dominican_Republic.html.
- beds. If you need shade, go early in the morning and borrow. After 8 am you will not find a comfortable place.
- night. This is generally super something, we were sitting on the Caribbean coast at a wooden table and on the same chairs (you just need to sleep them, know where to get them).
- ***** American sewer system, waist-deep water in the toilet, everywhere, if there is water in it - it is working, there will be no pictures, nothing). IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO UNDERSTAND - you just need to score on it.
Flight Punta Cana (Domincan Republic) - Sheremetyevo (Moscow), again Nordwind, 10 hours at night (two hours faster, but they gave a decent detour, past the whole of North America, turned to the UK, flew through Norway and Sweden and only then through the Baltic arrived home).
Met Dawn on the flight to Russia!
Comfort and flight attendants 5+.
But when you arrive at Sheremetyevo, you understand that you are at home).
No one smiles at you and no one sings songs))).
Special thanks to:
Maria Danilova (Maria Danilova Promoci? n y Ventas • Sales & Promotion Russian Market) for help with placement and moral support. We flew with two families, we were settled in one bungalow on the same floor!

We were a family of three with a child. And I think that I think that the Caribbean coast and in particular the resort of Boca Chica is ideal for children's holidays. First, the sea, because of the shallow lagoon, enclosed by a natural coral reef, there are no waves here, and you can swim every day without fear of the currents.

We were a family of three with a child. And I think that I think that the Caribbean coast and in particular the resort of Boca Chica is ideal for children's holidays. First, the sea, because of the shallow lagoon, enclosed by a natural coral reef, there are no waves here, and you can swim every day without fear of the currents. The second is that the hotel cost us much cheaper than in Punta Cana, but that's not even the point. We wanted to visit the Caribbean coast, and we liked it even more, but here everyone already has a taste. Also this place is quieter, there are not so many noisy discos. The hotel consists of three buildings GARDEN, our BEACH and SUITES. The latter is a small building adjacent to ours. GARDEN is located behind ours, and its rooms only face the garden. We rested in a room with a sea view, the Deluxe Ocean view room, relatively new, apparently it was renovated not so long ago, so everything was clean and comfortable. The room is large, in addition to the beds there is a sofa, a corner with a kettle and a mini-bar, a separate small dressing room with an iron, a safe, a bathroom next to a shower and a flexible hose, this is important. The furniture is all under the tree, a large balcony also with wooden chairs and a table. Furniture in appearance is not new, but quite functional. The rest is in good condition, large plasma, and most importantly, a stunning view from the second floor to the beach and the main blue pool. Next is food. Always fresh and very ripe and tasty vegetables and fruits, and there are a lot of them. Just awesome pineapple, mango and passion fruit. It’s not worth talking about citruses and bananas at all, there are a lot of them. A lot of different cuts, sausages and cheeses, cereals and hot omelets for breakfast, a lot of different side dishes, meat and fish every day, there were seafood but not everyone. The service is not luxury of course, but pretty good. The only thing 3-4 people were behind was omelettes for breakfast, otherwise everything is fine. Restaurants on the menu do not differ much, going to them did not cause much interest, but just as good. Internet is free only for an hour on the beach near the pool, you can buy a week of unlimited Wi-Fi - 60 USD per device, but the speed and quality are much better. The animation is fun and interesting, you won't get bored for sure. Evening shows are very colorful, went with great pleasure. We liked the hotel, especially the beach, we did not regret it.

arrived in the evening. It took 2 hours to get to the hotel. The representative of Pegasus said that the hotel was built in 1941 : ). Settled in quickly. There was construction going on opposite. There is construction everywhere. Horror is simple. Everything is in paint, always dirty. The rooms just suck. Everything old breaks.

arrived in the evening. It took 2 hours to get to the hotel. The representative of Pegasus said that the hotel was built in 1941 : ). Settled in quickly. There was construction going on opposite. There is construction everywhere. Horror is simple. Everything is in paint, always dirty. The rooms just suck. Everything old breaks. Can't wait for the staff. Bring only water, and then, if you ask. Everything else that is stated, you will not beg. The animation is on the level, but the rest is all minus. Food....., dining room. Disco, 1970s music only. They just started watching the series - police academy : ). The DJ at the disco puts on only three Russian songs, and then after 2 am. the beach is dirty. The beds are dirty. Cleaned closer to 10-11 hours. Don't wait for towels. They breed everywhere. Bought three towels, gave a receipt, but the cards were not given. Then the whole day they argued that they had not given us these cards. helped Pegasus in the end. don't give anyone any money. rum is sold at the forehead bars for cheap. So don't buy from stores. Lyudmila is there with Mario, don't be fooled, they offer like shop tours, sucks, divorce. carry on the points where the prices sky-high. took us out of the hotel 03.30, although they purchased 11 nights, the night ends at 06 o'clock, so also a divorce from Pegasus. Plus one, sun and sea. It rained twice. Flight 12 hours, return 14 hours. So think first.

My young man and I decided to go to the Dominican Republic, the travel agency praised this hotel very well and beautifully, and the price is good, and the sea is nearby, everything is better nowhere, travel agency Pegas by the way. While we were driving to the hotel, and it took 2 hours to drive from the airport, our guide simply intimidated everyone that it’s better not to go outside the hotel, and people walk around with weapons, and they push drugs, and they can beat you or even kill you, there are no whites in the city, and if you need to buy something, then buy at the hotel, and the prices there are cheap.

Take tours only from the bottom, because they give a guarantee, insurance, and outside the hotel there is horror going on, they may not be brought back. He said about the food that the food is the most delicious and that in other hotels the food is terrible, but we were lucky. We arrived, so frightened, well, nothing, they gave us the key to the room, and go look for it, we wandered about 15 minutes around the territory and finally the room, we went in and went nuts, a white room (well, this is everywhere), a bed, a telly, a chair and a plastic table, a shower and a sink either in mold or in a raid, the door to the bathroom is just with gaps (the aroma went to the toilet for the whole room), we had a balcony, which we barely opened, and the view is so picturesque, you can immediately see in the Dominican Republic you are resting, at a construction site. We decided to change the room, we were told to come tomorrow. OK. They came the next day and heard again tomorrow, I forgot to clarify, we didn’t even have bed linen in the room. the pillow smelled like a dirty alien head, which had to be put on a T-shirt. On the third day, we were finally moved to a room with two beds, the room is much better than the first one, but without a balcony, and also with a cool shower and just a hole in the field for water to drain, so after taking a shower, the whole floor was wet. The food is disgusting, the most delicious thing that I remember is watermelon and tomatoes, and ice cream, and of course I also remember the steak, which, according to the degree of roasting, could get up and go to finish eating its grass in the field, of course we didn’t eat it, it’s a pity. By the way, on the second day we were given a briefing, where they told us where it was and what restaurants there were, they also said in an hour to decide which excursion who would go on. everything was expensive for the price, for example, Santo Domingo cost $ 90 per person, I decided that it was better not to go anywhere. The guide was probably offended by us that we didn’t take anything, and didn’t greet us anymore. on one of these beautiful days we went outside the hotel, and I survived, and did not even see anything threatening me, we went to look for a certain travel agency, almost everyone there is Russian-speaking, and we took two tours there for 180 dollars. The hotel allegedly has wi-fi, but we were not able to connect to it. I stretched the review of course, and so whoever read this far, I’ll say that I liked the hotel: the beach (not bad, clean), pool, animation, that’s all)

We chose the hotel, because. it is actively promoted by all tour operators, and tempted by 4 stars. In fact, a 4-star hotel pulls only for food. There are practically no complaints about him. Delicious, varied, plentiful. But the rooms are a total disaster. They settle in a room with a view of the construction site; switches, taps, and a toilet often do not work in the room.

Delicious, varied, plentiful. But the rooms are a total disaster. They settle in a room with a view of the construction site; switches, taps, and a toilet often do not work in the room. Outwardly, many buildings resemble Soviet Khrushchevs. The request to replace the number is answered "tomorrow", and so on ad infinitum. By the way, the answer "tomorrow" also applies to the question "when they fix the toilet, it's impossible to flush it. " And live how you want. For a normal room, they ask for a surcharge of $50 per night. The animation is good, but monotonous. The beach is small, the sea is shallow. In general, a place for an amateur. Although the country itself is fire!

From the airport the road took about 2 hours. The road is good, we stopped at 2 hotels along the way. The hotel itself is not new, but quite decent. At the reception, the staff speaks a little Russian. Checked in exactly at 3pm. There is a luggage room where you can drop off your suitcases for free, which we did and went to the sea.

Just want to praise the guys and girls animators. Just fellows lit to the fullest. Hotel for parties and fun. Do not go here and look for minor flaws, drink rum, dance, have fun! For us it was a real holiday. Alcohol in a hotel of good quality, of course, you will not find super expensive rum here, but you can also drink what you eat without fear.

For us it was a real holiday. Alcohol in a hotel of good quality, of course, you will not find super expensive rum here, but you can also drink what you eat without fear. Beer excellent cocktails do well. The food is also of good quality and there is plenty to choose from. In the evenings, excellent seafood barbecue on the beach. Various meals throughout the day. Lots of meat, lots of fruits. You will also find something to feed the child for children, there is a pool and game and children's animation, so if you go with children, you should not worry that they will have nothing to do or nothing to feed. If necessary, babysitting services can be ordered for a surcharge. In addition to the animators, there is a lot of things even rented bicycles and rode horses. Fitness Centre. Spa InSense Spa: massage, steam room, sauna, facial and body treatments, hairdresser, manicure, pedicure but all this is for a fee. There is even a casino on site. . From free billiards, ping-pong, tennis, basketball, volleyball, aerobics. Teach dance has a large swimming pool with a spa tub. There is a diving center. You can fish. Or just go water skiing. Now I want to say a little about the beach. First protected and there are lifeguards. Merchants are not allowed close, so no one will bother. But here in the hotel, the Internet is a problem, first of all it is slow and you can’t catch it everywhere. So what to watch online or download movies can not count. Yes, who needs the Internet when there is such fun around. The room where we lived was given to us right away without an offer to pay extra for a better option, and I will say that it suited us perfectly. Cleaning for four and the rest of the usual room, everything is in working condition and we have no complaints. We will definitely come back to have some fun, and we didn’t go on excursions so much for fun at the hotel and forgot about getting to know the country!
