I would definitely not recommend this hotel to my friends. Far from 5 *, solid 3. Lines in the main restaurant, line in the restaurant itself. A nightmare. There is a lot of food, tasty, but monotonous, and on the 6th day you don’t want to look at it. If you are Russian, the restaurant can simply ignore you. The area is clean, the pool is very large, there is enough space for everyone. Dirty ocean (! ), strong wind from the ocean, but it is not felt on the territory of the hotel. The beach is clean, the algae is removed, where the sunbeds are located, the beach is dirty. No free wi-fi. Check-in and check-out went quickly. After registering at the hotel, we were given a room where people already lived, yes)))) we go in and there is a couple in bed, that's the norm. . . ))) . Cleaned on so-so, the towel was rarely changed, the sets in the bathroom were no longer reported, the bar was replenished with water, coffee, tea, sugar, cola, sprite, beer was put on the last day. The sockets matched our plugs. Animation on the beach is fun. It's boring in the evening. I also recommend taking light blouses, it's cool in the evening. We flew Azur, the flights were postponed, the food was normal, 2 times, the staff was good. Fly there 12 hours, return 11. The hotel has shops, a little expensive. There are Russian shops behind the barrier of the hotel and along the beach to the right for about 20 minutes, prices are cheaper there. If you go outside the hotel, be prepared that locals will come to you and take you shopping for a tip. From fruits, you can buy only pineapples, $ 2-3 pcs. , delicious. And yes, get ready for the horror at the airport. Very slow and exhaustingly long. From La Romana airport, drive to the hotel takes approximately 1 hour 20 minutes. On the way back from the hotel to the airport, you will be taken to a shop where you can buy souvenirs, rum, cigars, cosmetics, etc. Prices are about the same as everywhere else.
