Hotel ratings by criteria:
the hotel is 20-25min from punta cana airport, you can't hear the planes, everything is fine with that. there is a large shopping village on the territory of the hotel, so if you need to buy something, it's not a question. there is also a bank, although there is an ATM in the hotel. again, it takes about 20 minutes to go to local settlements - if you suddenly want exotic
the hotel is not small not big - manages on foot. this is rather not typical for these places, since neighboring hotels, for example, Bavaro Beach, have territories of 20-35 hectares, and although there are trains and buses on their territory. green, many artificial ponds where turtles and flamingos live. one large pool with four hydromassages and a bar. one small children's pool and another small adult without a bar. there are no water slides or other slides. water sports - on the beach of the hotel. free - mask snorkel fins, canoe, catamaran and, in my opinion, windsurfing. for a fee - parasending, boats, fishing, boat with a transparent bottom, etc. pieces. Gift shop in the hotel is good. There is Internet for sure but I did not use it.
service gentlemen is very different. The a la carte restaurants are excellent. in the main restaurant Naos where the buffet is complete rubbish. drinks had to wait. And wait a long time! any drinks - water, wine, etc. They forgot to clean the room once, once they didn’t bring towels. I called the reception three times and then even went to quarrel - they brought it in 40 minutes. I can’t say that these are problems of the language barrier - they understood me perfectly. Russian is not spoken at the hotel and there is no Russian staff. The following nuances of the hotel for which you should be prepared: freshly squeezed juices only in the mornings (a common misfortune of the Dominican Republic) - then you will not even be interrogated on purpose; in Roma country you can't order a mojito in a hotel - no mint!!!! ! drank caperinha; the wine that is included in all inclusive is so-so. for example Traivento what they give in Yekaterinburg costs 235 rubles. there is a second wine list, but it also shines more with price than with good wines. you have to sign up for a la carte restaurants and I’ll tell you, it’s not easy to do this. I managed to visit the Vento restaurant once (it must be said delicious) - either there are no places or they offer stupid time like 17-00. and even though you sign up at seven in the morning at least a day in advance - it's still the same thing. other restaurants are easier to get to (Bana - Chinese, Japanese tampanyaki and sushi bar). Sushi is not tasty. Chinese - nothing. Tampanyaki is great.
there is a good gym - treadmills, barbells, dumbbells, exercise equipment - everything is there. games - beach volleyball and all. if you sign up at the reception and go from the hotel to special fields, then tennis and golf. I wrote about water activities above. fishing - I was in July and this is clearly not the season. catch a little and not all. in the Atlantic it shakes a lot - be prepared. in the Atlantic it bites better than in the Caribbean (it does not shake in the Caribbean). In the Caribbean, the price of fishing depends on the yacht - 1100 - 2000 dollars per yacht for up to 7 people. in antalntika - if you go alone somewhere 700, if in a group - 100 per person. if you go to the atlantic, negotiate on the yacht Aqva Blu I. This is the only yacht that catches. It is worth it if you leave the hotel then along the beach to the right 5-10min
Meals - all inclusive. The main restaurant of Naos is a buffet, the food is not bad, fresh meat, fish, mussels, shrimp are constantly fried with you. a bunch of salads desserts. very good burritos and all sorts of cakes. pump problem - disgusting service. restaurants a la carte Bana (Chinese Japanese), Vento - different, and some other only for adults - we were not there. For a royal service, I am free for others - Gabi Beach. Never ate there, who ate - praised
Those who have never been to the islands will be delighted. endless long white beach, gently sloping. Who was in the Maldives - will not appreciate. A lot of grass comes ashore, and although it is cleaned daily, it is not a bounty. The sea itself is clean and transparent, it is convenient to enter as I wrote. Sun loungers if the hotel is starting to be missed. The underwater world at the hotel is the poorest. Yes, and on their reefs where they carry not the Maldives either
little entertainment during the day. there are animators who offer volleyball and similar things - they won’t say it’s very active, but it soared us the least. in the evening all sorts of shows, even the circus came. discos are small. there is a special entertainment room for children, a small casino right in the hotel (there is a large casino next to the hotel)
Impression and recommendation - the hotel is not worth the money and the main problem is the quality of service. You don’t need to go to it, but spend the saved money on excursions - they are not cheap in the Diminican
