Rested in July 2018
We stayed in July 2018 with a friend.
We booked through Pegas Tourist and flew with Nordwind Airlines.
The plane is clean, not loose, but very cramped. On that day, the flight was for 500 people, there weren’t enough blankets for everyone and we had to wrap ourselves in sweaters and jackets. they carry in an unlimited number. My advice is to take food from home.
We arrived at 6:00 am and were at the hotel by 9:00 am.
At the reception there is a fixed price (but not official) -20 bucks and you are settled in a cozy, clean room with a good view (and this is not unimportant, because there are rooms overlooking the road and fenced with a scary prickly fence). As a result, in the room, decorated with balloons and fresh flowers, we entered already at 11 o'clock, so my advice is not to spare money and check in earlier.
The hotel is fresh, it can be seen that only after renovation. Stylish, clean and bright. Each bar is made in its own style, everywhere rattan wicker furniture, with leather seats.
The number of rooms also impressed, the rooms are spacious.
In the room: ironing board and iron, sockets can be used without adapters! There are no bathrobes and slippers.
Replenishment of the minibar-1 every two days, but we replenished almost every day. In the minibar-liter bottles: whiskey, vodka, gin and rum. 3 liter bottles of water, 4 bottles of soda and 4 cans of beer.
Bed linen is changed every 3 days, but if you take it off and throw it on the floor (the same applies to towels), they will change it on the same day
I was very worried when I read reviews about the restaurant and food. In fact, it turned out completely differently - the food is simply amazing !! ! Seafood (in what form they are not there! ) - crabs, shrimp, mussels, squids, red fish, red caviar !!
Fruits - papaya, mango, passion fruit, watermelons, melons!
A la carte restaurants can be visited free of charge and without an appointment.
The waiters are really very slow, like all the residents living in this country.
Not everyone speaks English, I won’t even talk about Russian, the main language there is Spanish.
Beach. In summer, the ocean is stormy, and the entire coastline is covered with algae, yes, it spoils the view, but if you fly in the summer, then you should be prepared for this, because even in the Caribbean Sea (Saona Island) they are also present.
The sand on the beach is white, the ocean is very warm, but you won’t be able to fully enjoy this atmosphere, because at the entrance to the ocean you are enveloped in sargas.
At the time of our stay, the hotel was 90% full, but the beach is so huge that sometimes it feels like there are 10 people in the hotel besides you.
Weather. They say that summer is not the season. The air warmed up to 35-40 degrees every day, periodically in the evenings there were tropical rains, maximum 20 minutes long, and after 5 minutes everything dried up and did not even smell of rain.
Animation. Since I myself worked in the Turkish animation team for a year, I can safely say that in Turkey such animators would have been fired long ago) But! It all depends on how you used to relax yourself, music is constantly playing by the pool and on the beach, animators invite you to dance, everywhere Spanish tunes sound, foreigners do not hesitate to spend their time in passionate dances, while spreading in the widest smile. Darts, volleyball, ping pong, mini golf competitions are held during the day.
In the evening, a mini disco for children, and adult entertainment shows, animation is open until 23.30.
After that, all young people go to the Pacha disco club (entrance is free for all visitors to the riu hotel chain, drinks inside are paid, from $ 5)
In conclusion, I can say that I have traveled to many countries, and there is something to compare with: the Maldives, the United Arab Emirates, the Rixos hotel chain in Turkey.
The hotel is not inferior in terms of its performance, service and quality of food.
The holiday turned out to be very eventful.
And do not read the negative reviews, everyone has everything individually. We returned absolutely delighted!
