We flew from Kyiv Azur, please note that the weight of your bags should be no more than 15 kg + 7 kg hand. put on a person. There is no entertainment on board the aircraft, except for the radio. I recommend taking different gadgets with you, because the flight from takeoff to landing is 12 hours, they are fed twice. The return flight is 10:40. When going through customs in the Dominican Republic, you cannot carry food in your hand luggage, everything will be thrown out. On the way back, the baggage is summed up, i. e. if there are two of you, then you can put 30 kg + 7 kg manual per person in one bag.
We arrived at La Romana airport and drove to the hotel for an hour and a half. It was 5 o'clock in the morning, check-in, according to the rules of the hotel at 15:00, had to be given $ 25 and we were immediately settled in the second building and put on bracelets. Check-out at 12:00 to extend the room take $ 10 per hour, we did not extend, I do not remove the bracelets until you leave the hotel.
Now about the hotel. The room was so-so, the closet is small, but everything worked in the room, the view was on the garden, we didn’t see living creatures in the room, if you open the door to the balcony in the evening, mosquitoes will definitely fly in. The air conditioner is generic and a little noisy, cleaning is normal regardless of the tip, there are two free bottles of water in the fridge, the bathroom has shampoo, soap, shower gel, body lotion, hair conditioner, hair dryer. American type sockets, only in the bathroom there is a European one. The hotel area is not very big, but everything is compact, very clean, well thought out. Internet, except reception, paid $10 for 7 days. Everywhere there is security, surveillance cameras, there is also billiards, big and table tennis, table football. There are also shops where you can buy everything you need, but the prices are not cheap. SPA, first-aid post, small volleyball field, photo studio and photographer. Sports bar.

Food. We really liked it, there was always something to choose from and most importantly delicious. In addition to the main restaurant, which is divided into sections for smokers and those who do not smoke, there are still three alacartas that do not need to be booked in advance, just come and sit at the table, choose from the menu and eat. Shorts are not allowed in alacarte restaurants. Alcoholic drinks We didn’t really like the local production, especially the beer, it was sour, every other day. When asked why, they answered that they didn’t know. And they showed that the barrel was sealed.
Beach. Not as big as in the photo, it looks like they took a photo when the tide was out. There were always enough sunbeds at this time of rest, there is also a beach bar. Algae and waves, of course, were but not as scary as described in the reviews. Swimming was not interfered with. Twice there were not big morning rains. Animation is not very intrusive. family people with children, elderly grandparents, young couples. I didn’t hear any drunken brawls or songs until the morning. After the evening show, everyone goes to sleep or sits near the reception, on the Internet, where there is also a bar and coffee machines.
You can not change dollars for pesos, prices are in dollars everywhere. To the right, along the beach, 250-300 meters, a shop with fixed prices, if you go further, after 30 minutes there will already be several shops, where the choice is larger and, as it seemed to us, the prices are slightly higher. To the left, the local bazaar, and if you like to haggle, then you are here. Upon departure, in dutifree, the prices are quite reasonable, if someone forgot to buy something. As a result: for those who are for the first time, I can recommend this hotel. If you have any questions, write. Thank you for your attention and have a good rest. With respect to everyone.
