Accommodation-2. I read a lot of reviews before going to this hotel. The hotel has 4 buildings. 1 and 2 are very old and raw. 3 and 4 refurbished. Of course, we were placed in building 2, first in room 2145 with one bed for three adults (there was no extra space). then, after much arguing, to room 2146 with two beds.

Of course, we were placed in building 2, first in room 2145 with one bed for three adults (there was no extra space). then, after much arguing, to room 2146 with two beds. Then they put a cot on which it was simply impossible to sleep. the rooms are very damp, they tried to open the balcony window for ventilation (there was a terrible smell of mold) - they could not close it completely, although it was not necessary, since there was simply nowhere to hang swimwear. All the cotton wool fell off in the pillows from dampness. Instead of a blanket - a blanket with which the same tourists were closed before us. about the surcharge for the best number, the young couple was given 1 building, they did not like it. They paid extra $50 - they changed it to the 2nd building. Cleaning in our room dragged on until almost 17 hours (even daily tips did not affect), but the maids used creams, perfumes, etc. with might and main. They were tormented to remove jet black hair from our massage combs. For food, you can put a solid four. The food is varied, the service in restaurants is fast and high quality, the waiters are very friendly. The animators worked just fine - they gave 100 percent. The territory of the hotel is small, but well-groomed. I went, my husband (we were fifty dollars each) and my daughter, 26 years old. Maybe we were unlucky with the weather before lunch, the sun, in the afternoon a strong wind, a day later a tropical downpour. You can’t lie on the beach - the room is cold and damp. I still can't get rid of the musty smell. By plane from Kazan to Moscow, then almost 12 hours to punta cana, then 3.5 hours by bus to Juan dolio. then until almost 8 pm accommodation in disgusting rooms. Well, it's not worth the pain. The snow-white beach was found only on an excursion to Saona for $ 540 for three (at prices for excursions, these tours are probably ahead of the rest). You can’t enter the sea without special shoes - corals interspersed with sand). Here is such a gentle Caribbean Sea and such broken hopes! Elvira.

We decided to discover America, like Columbus, from the island of Haiti. The flight to Punta Cana for 12 hours with Transaero and three films on a netbook was successful, but after landing we had to sit on the plane for another hour, we were not accepted, it was psychologically difficult, be prepared for such a situation.

Hotel. We were settled in the 3rd building, the room was normal, but not new, they offered the 4th with a European-style renovation with an additional charge of $ 40 per night. The 3rd and 4th buildings are on the shore, it is better to settle in them, and such a nuance, the rooms where the odd last digits overlook the sea, keep in mind when you get a number at the reception.
Beach. The beach is wide, beautiful, palm trees, high and not very high, the bottom with sharp stones (the issue is decided by buying safety shoes), there are waves, small, because. large ones break on reefs, at a distance of 150 meters from the shore, throughout the entire beach. On the Atlantic coast at this time, according to the guide, the waves were 2 meters. The water was warm and clear, although it rained four times in two weeks, mostly at night.
Nutrition. Everything is delicious, varied, a lot of different meats, pork, beef, rabbit, duck, since there were quails, seafood is not very tasty in gravy, or always eat in pastas (spaghetti) on a separate rack, fish every day, but it was delicious four times a day. two weeks. We tried everything, everything is super : -) We counted twelve types of fruits. Mango, carambola, passion fruit, bananas, tangerines, papaya (very tasty), watermelon, melon, pineapple, I don’t remember further. In the morning fresh juices and milkshakes with fruits. Generally food in one restaurant ends in another bar begins. From 7-00 to 22-30 all the time fed. From 10-00 to 3 in the morning they sing all the time : )
Animation. From 10 am yoga on the beach (recommended), you just feel how the air straightens your lungs. And until the evening, aerobics, dance lessons, different competitions, volleyball, football, evening show program (we liked it) is different every day. from 22-30 disco. Animators give all the best to 100.
Excursions. That's what was lucky, so it's with the Carnival! Once a year, on the last Sunday of February, a carnival procession takes place in Santa Domingo. It was the day of our arrival, BUT, this year the Carnival was moved to the next Sunday (March 4), because it coincided with Independence Day. I won’t tell for a long time, but a trip to the Carnival is half of all impressions about the country! Experienced say no worse than Rio, only one day instead of a week there. We also went on an excursion to Santa Domingo, there was a great guide (Anatoly), we liked it. My husband had diving in Boca Chica with an instructor Olga, there, in Boca Chica, there are no waves at all, the water is like glass, because of the large reefs 100 meters from the shore. We were on an excursion to Saona, I really liked it - a bounty, such a nuance, our friends went there for 60 dollars, per person, we are for 90, but when we started looking at the pictures, it turned out that they were not brought to La Romana (the city of artists), there beauty, and the pictures are great! So if possible, it is better to go with a visit to this place.
The advantages of a vacation on the Caribbean coast: a calmer sea, proximity to the capital (40 minutes), we would hardly have rushed to the Carnival from Punta Cana (4 hours). I really liked the resort of La Romana, and the beaches and the city itself, perhaps those who are going to this beautiful country should pay attention to it.
Total. Dominican Republic. Beautiful, delicious, insanely fun, meringues and rum are everywhere from morning to morning, a continuous carnival. But, passed by the heart. I want to go to Thailand.
