The other day I returned from a trip to the Dominican Republic with my husband, from the RIU Palace Macao 5 * hotel. Rested with Natalie Tours. The flight was pleasant, without delays, without nerves at the airport, though VERY long. For me anyway. My husband doesn't care anyway. I can’t even imagine how people fly to the Dominican Republic, who have a flight with transfers ?!
The airport is clean and quite comfortable. We waited a long time for luggage (oh, I don't like it! ). Met. They put me on the bus. She gazed with round eyes at the flickering landscapes. The sun shone brightly, clean beaches smiled with a white smile.
We arrived…. Yes…. We paid a lot for this hotel, but it was worth it, believe me! Beautiful, stately, surrounded by a face of palm trees, with a huge pool, decorated with antique statues.

The room, however, is standard, clean, comfortable. Liked the liquor dispenser. Haven't seen this yet. And thank God in the toilet the mirror does not hang on the door, in front of the toilet, as it was once in Turkey. Every day the cleaner came to fix everything for us, tied the curtains with a bow and even her husband's socks, scattered around the room, neatly collected and put in a corner. Eh, poor thing. I hope she had gloves.
The hotel cooks very well. There were all sorts of exotic dishes, even black caviar, but I didn’t get it, because the greedy Canadians snapped everything up. A huge number of interesting seafood that my husband loves so much. Once we went to a Japanese restaurant, not bad by Moscow standards. They drank mainly rum, which is simply magnificent there and is often served in coconut.
We often sat in the sauna and jacuzzi, played golf once for fun, but did not like it. Once, by tradition, I went to the gym, but it seemed small to me, but overall not bad.
The hotel has a wonderful white-white and shockingly clean beach, a cloud of exotic fish in the sea and the sun is like in cartoons, smiling and winking slightly.
We went on an excursion 2 times: to Santo Domingo (believe me, there is something to see there) and to the Fun-fun cave. I liked it very much, although it was a pity to leave the hotel.
The people in the Dominican Republic are very friendly, but poor. For a dollar you will pick all the coconuts from the palm tree. The nature there is like paradise. It is a classic paradise, just like in the Bounty advertisement. I didn't think there was such a place on earth.
In general, I am satisfied with the trip, my husband is full, I will definitely go again.
