  • The lazy river is a legitimate highlight, not just a gimmick
  • Mike's Coffee serves actual barista-quality espresso, a rarity for all-inclusives
  • El Beso (adults-only) section offers a genuine sanctuary from the family chaos

Hurtig oversigt: A visual stunner with a humidity problem and a beach that fights back.

Anmeldt af @AhatcherMy bestie and I booked this last-minute and it was exactly the reset we needed. From the swim-up room to the foam parties, the energy here is unmatched. If you want a fun, carefree girls' trip where you don't have to plan a thing, this is the spot.

The hype

Great pools and modern design, but the service is hit-or-miss and the rooms feel damp.

Reality check

You will likely need to tip heavily to get prompt drink service at the busy swim-up bars.

  • You are a pool person, not a beach person
  • You are traveling with kids who need a water park and bowling alley
  • You drink coffee like it's a religion (Mike's Coffee is that good)

Renhed & Vedligeholdelse

6.5
  • Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Daily service happens, but floors are often swept rather than mopped.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Grout often shows discoloration. Jacuzzi tubs in rooms can have jet residue.
  • Maintenance: High humidity leads to peeling paint and musty odors in ground-floor rooms.
  • Linens & towels: Towels are often worn and can feel damp even when 'fresh' due to humidity.
  • Odors & scents: Strong musty/mildew smell is a common complaint in lower-level rooms.

Før du booker

Godt at vide

Hvad skal du pakke

Ofte stillede spørgsmål og skjulte tips

Alt hvad du gerne vil vide før du booker.

Is the beach swimmable?

Barely. It's rocky, the waves are strong, and seaweed is common. It's for walking, not swimming.

Is the water park free?

Yes, the kids' water park and lazy river are included for all guests.

Do I need reservations for dinner?

Yes, for the à la carte restaurants. Without 'Privilege' status, you must line up early or risk eating at the buffet.

Is there a casino?

No, there is no casino on-site, though there is a bowling alley (paid).

How far is it from the airport?

It's in Uvero Alto, about a 40-45 minute drive from Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ).

Is the WiFi good?

It's decent in the lobby and main areas, but spotty in the rooms and far reaches of the resort.


Insidertips

  • The 'Blue Moon' restaurant is adults-only even for family section guests—great for a date night.

  • Lunch at the beach snack bar is often fresher and less chaotic than the main buffet.

  • You can walk to the neighboring resort's beach for slightly better sand, but security might check you on return.

5 ting du bør vide før du tager af sted

  • 💡The 'Lazy River' current is actually quite slow; you might have to paddle yourself.

  • 💡The 'Privilege' beach area has the same rocky water entry as the regular section.

  • 💡There is a hidden cost for the bowling alley (approx $10-15/person).

  • 💡The lobby bar makes significantly better cocktails than the pool bars.

  • 💡Timeshare/Vacation Club sales pitches are aggressive at check-in; give a firm 'No'.
