Весело, чисто, красиво. Fun, clean, beautiful.

To begin with, a holiday in Puerto Plata is fundamentally different from a holiday in Punta Cana. Punta Cana has white sands and deeper oceans, but Puerto Plata is a getaway that's a cocktail of fine mountain air and shallow, warm ocean perfect for kids. The hotel is excellent, I do not understand the whining about it. For some, the sand is grayish, someone saw a cockroach, someone was tired of dancing. First, go to the other side of the island. Second, you are in the tropics! Third, don't like dancing - Thailand is a great option, but cockroaches are also found there)). I'll start with accommodation. Although we arrived early in the morning, we were settled in the room immediately, we did not wait for a single extra minute. I rested together with a child, a bungalow room, almost on the very shore of the ocean. The room is spacious, the cleaning is excellent, almost perfect. The floors get dusty every day, and this is unlikely to have been affected by a few bucks in a tip, especially since I did not leave them on the first day of my stay. Wicker furniture, large attic with table and chairs. Our things dried well in the attic, the humidity in the room was normal, nothing smelled of mold or dampness. Based on the fact that this hotel has an excellent children's beach, we stopped our choice on it. Also, one of the important criteria was children's animation. My child took part in all competitions and dances with great pleasure, and even improved his English)). Yes, the ocean in this place is shallow, but there are almost no waves. Swimming from the shore is not at all dangerous, but in some places there are many sea urchins, you should be more careful. The beach is strewn with palm trees, sun loungers are placed in their shade. The palm trees provide great shade and a great tan. It is still worth taking strong sunscreen, because the Dominican sun spares no one, especially delicate baby skin. On the second day, we were already burned, and the child's temperature rose. After a call to the reception, a couple of minutes later the doctor was in the room. The very next day we swam in the ocean again. In general, the service is excellent, nice people who will help in any situation. The food did not disappoint us. Seafood every day, perfectly cooked fish and meat, you could always find a dietary dish for a child. Fruits, vegetables and sweets for every taste, it is simply impossible to stay hungry. From the animators constant dancing and fun, having fun with the child on an equal footing. I recommend this hotel, especially if the holiday includes children.
