My review will be shriveled and I will try to go over all the points and not forget anything. The staff works well, but there are no Russian-speaking staff anywhere. Mostly Spanish or English. Everyone is very friendly and any issue is resolved quickly. Wi-fi is free throughout and in the rooms. The speed is good, only a little weakly catches the beach. Well, these are already trifles and we didn’t pay attention to someone, but maybe it’s important that I mentioned it. The hotel itself is small. There is a lot of greenery and it is very carefully looked after. Many different birds live in the area. Including flamingos, peacocks, ducks. There are three pools different in shape and depth. There are always enough sun loungers and change of towels as many times as you like without restrictions. Animation is good enough active and at the same time unobtrusive. But you definitely won’t be bored here, unless of course you want to participate. There is a kids club and childcare providers. Children are engaged not only in the club itself but also on the street. There are various activities for them. In general, there are quite a lot of children in the hotel. And no wonder the beach is great for families with kids. . Not all beaches are perfect though. Approximately two-fifths with poor rocky entry into the water. But on the other hand, the other large part has a gentle sandy entry. To a depth of a hundred meters to go knee-deep to reach the depth of the chest. But for the kids expanse. In the part where the rocky entry made a lighthouse bar protruding into the corals from the shore. It is very pleasant to spend time there in the evenings. There are corals there, not very interesting, but you can grab a mask and fins and swim for a change. The beach is cleaned regularly. Waiters serve drinks. There are a lot of sunbeds, but in the part where there is poor entry into the water. In the part where the entrance is good sunbeds are occupied and sometimes you need to look. And those that are closest to the shore occupy from six in the morning. The water itself is very clean and clear. For us, the main thing was a beach without waves and so that there was no depth right away, because I swim very badly, and so without algae. When our travel agent suggested this option, we immediately agreed. In general, we were lucky with him. The tour was picked up quickly in ten minutes, he immediately understood what we wanted from the rest and there was no fuss. Plus, he gave a lot of very useful advice about the country, thanks to which we saved a lot. I recommend and you will be contacted, his name is Dmitry Kukin, it is easy to find by the name of the surname in the VKontakte social network. The food at the hotel is good and always fresh. The choice is large enough so that no one remains hungry and finds those dishes that will come to his taste. There are four a la carte restaurants they are by appointment but nothing special. Most restaurants have theme nights daily. During the day, paella and other dishes are cooked on the beach on a campfire. For lunch sometimes we didn't even go to the main restaurant. Seafood is also, of course, everything is somewhat limited, but they also ate lobsters. Good alcohol especially in the lobby bar. They make the best cocktails there. And there is live music in the evenings. Our room was standard. Already, of course, everything is not new, but in general there is nothing to particularly complain about. Cleaning is normal, and if you leave a tip, then the figurines from towels are twisted. We liked the hotel very much and recommend it to everyone!

The hotel has a fairly large area with a good layout, everything is conveniently located. There is a pond where different birds live, including flamingos. In general, there are many birds and ducks and swans and even turkeys) There are many flowers and various plants. Peacocks roam freely. For plants, careful constant care is immediately evident. The territory is well guarded. The beach is clean, there is a beach bar with cool funny bartenders. Access to the water is limited. From the left it is impossible to enter the water from the right a very good entry depth is not immediately so if you eat with children they will be fine. There is a reef and there is something to see. There is a diving center they offered us, but I didn’t dare to do it all the same, there is a difference with a mask to dive or scuba diving) The animators are always fun on the beach. Everyone is invited to participate, everything is very active and fun. They teach dancing, water aerobics, archery and a lot of things. There were also discos and foam parties. The disco lasts until two in the morning. There is even karaoke. We wanted fun and good food, but the beaches of the Dominican Republic are already clear that they are a paradise. Well, according to the budget to invest. The hotel also has very good food. In addition to the main restaurant five a la carte. They are on the record. All restaurants were liked in their own way. In total, in Doval you can not even go to ala carte in the main restaurant, everything is there. Great steaks at Steak House. According to the number they didn’t bother, they took the standard one to be cheaper. Although the room is not new, but everything is in good condition. Safe for free. Cleaning, replenishment of the mini bar daily. There is even an ironing board and iron. The bathroom is spacious but the fixtures are old. The hotel staff only speak English. There are no Russian speaking staff at all. We knew about it and it’s not a problem for us, but maybe it’s important for someone, so I’m writing about it. The hotel made only a positive impression if you do not pay attention to such trifles as oldish plumbing, then I think that this is a cool hotel!

The whole vacation from the first to the last day was just a fairy tale. The hotel captivated from the first minute. The area is simply gorgeous, very well maintained and incredibly beautiful. Everything is in greenery and flowers, the staff is constantly cutting something, sweeping, washing, cleaning. All around cleanliness and order. There is a beautiful pond with tame birds, and they walk all over the territory without any problems. We were met very friendly, but there is no Russian-speaking staff at the reception. Everyone speaks mostly Spanish and some English, so keep that in mind. We arrived early in the morning. We were checked in earlier than the scheduled time, but the bracelets were put on immediately. After breakfast and a short walk around the territory and a short visit to the beach, for familiarization, after a couple of hours we unpacked our suitcases in the room. The room is excellent, we did not notice any shortcomings, and we spent very little time in the room. The main thing for us is a comfortable bed for a good sleep. In this regard, we were completely satisfied. Quality cleaning daily, bathrobes and slippers, cosmetics, a coffee maker with attached components, an iron, a clothes dryer, a well-functioning air conditioner, a free bar and WI-FI in the room, and, in principle, throughout the hotel. The service is excellent, you won’t find fault, and you didn’t want to, we’re on vacation, and we didn’t fly with a check)). For a long time we rushed between the choice of a hotel or on the ocean coast, or still the Caribbean Sea. Of course, I have never seen such beauty as the Caribbean coast. The water in the sea is an incredible turquoise color, as pure as a tear. You go into the water up to your waist and you see your toes. The sand is extraordinary, even immediately after lunch, when it is the most sunny on the street, you can calmly walk on it barefoot! Not only will you not get burned, but not even a bit hot. True, the beach at the hotel is good only on one side of the lighthouse, but there are always plenty of free places both on the beach and near the pool, although we swam in the pool only once when a foam party was held. Animation is awesome. The guys are smart, incendiary and cheerful, they will not let anyone get bored, and even knowledge of the language was not needed))). The service is a bit slow but that is more of a country feature though I don't think this should be displayed on a hotel. We are not very offended, but still a small minus to the hotel. I can't help but mention the food. Everything here was top notch. Seafood every day, cheeses, without which I cannot imagine breakfast or dinner. A sea of fruits and vegetables for every taste, meat of all kinds and in any manner, and of course, awesome sweets and coffee. Cocktails in any bar are made with good and high-quality alcohol and are very tasty. We rested with a bang, and I wish you the same.

Mini bar free of charge. Refill daily. Cleaning for five plus. Quiet conder and excellent noise isolation. Bed linen and towels in perfect condition. Service at the level of the staff does the job professionally. Tipping is welcome but not required. The sea is a fairy tale. The beach is clean. Sunbeds do not have to take a lot. All new. Lifeguards on the beach are constantly on duty. And the hotel itself is well guarded. Beach towels can be changed as much as you like. The descent into the water is a gentle sand. There is a good bar on the beach. Nearby at the end of the beach there are local shops with various nonsense. Entertainment at the hotel is excellent. Well done animation team. Well, according to the standard. Football, volleyball, aerobics, tennis, billiards. Great spa and sauna. Everything is at a high level. With food, everything is also on the level. Dinners are chic, the choice of seafood is excellent. Everything is delicious whether breakfast, lunch or dinner. Alcohol quality. In addition to the main restaurant, there are four a la carte restaurants at your service; there are no special differences, except that the service is more chic and the decor is more beautiful. In general, I liked the hotel and the price is normal!

If you choose this hotel, you will definitely not regret it. We brought home only positive emotions) For the two weeks spent in this place, I didn’t get tired of anything, and if I had the opportunity, we would stay here again) The staff does their job perfectly, it’s a pity they don’t understand Russian and English too well, but at the reception they will always help if anything .

The green area is very beautiful, there are many different flamingo birds, swans, ducks... One of the entertainments for kids and for adults is feeding the birds) The beach is super not even washed away to go to Saon, they took an excursion there, but the beach at the hotel was not particularly impressed. The water is clear and beautiful, you can see the fish. The sand does not get very hot so you can walk without flip flops. There are practically no algae and entry into the water is good and smooth. The sand is white and everywhere clean order is constantly brought about, too, about the territory. There is a good bar on the beach where they make cocktails very cool, well, we liked it there more) In general, alcohol drinks around the clock, there is good alcohol, and local beer and mostly a lot of rum, but also imported drinks such as whiskey and the like. Lots of freshly squeezed juices. The food is very varied, lots of seafood. Three types of meat are pork, beef and lamb. Different fish in the form of felle or steaks. There were lobsters, mussels, squids and shrimps. From meat, I really liked beef steaks you lick your fingers. There are a couple of types of soups. I won’t list a lot of different types of twelve fruits) So it was simply impossible to stay hungry here! Bored in the hotel, too, there was no fun animation. During the day, various competitions, aerobics, archery and air rifle shooting. All the action is mostly on the beach. All unobtrusively in general guys animators are great fellows! In the evenings they put on a show, well, I won’t say that it’s amazing, but for a change it will do. Disco and live music. There is a spa but there is nothing to go there, it makes no sense. The room was decently quiet, there were no problems with the electronics. Good quality furniture. Cleaning is normal, they bring water to the room, everything is for tea and coffee, for the bathroom, but everything is locally produced. And there are no slippers and bathrobes, which is of course a small minus. And the Internet is intermittent, but in general, we only needed a viber a couple of times, so this is not a minus for us. We had a wonderful rest!

The hotel is good, what was written about it before - almost everything is true, this year there were no lagmans, oysters were in the stay-house restaurant (on the all-inclusive card, a good restaurant) There are more living creatures in the hotel, there are already five flamingos. a lot of all kinds of unpleasant living creatures - lizards crawl out of their sockets, mosquitoes bite to blisters and do not heal for a long time.

Excellent coffee from the machine (I liked the espresso best) The sea is awesome, the beach is sandy, the sunset is comfortable, the water is warm and beautiful azure. - It rained for two days. You have to go there from December, not earlier.

The hotel is very decent: clean and beautiful on the territory. Several peacocks roam freely, various types of ducks and pink flamingos swim in the pond. The area is small but cozy. Every evening musical programs and musicals (very good staging and costumes). Everything is in English, because the main tourists are from America.

Every evening musical programs and musicals (very good staging and costumes). Everything is in English, because the main tourists are from America. There are practically no Russians, but the Russian language is often heard, most Americans are former immigrants from the Soviet Union. There are several La Carte restaurants with good cuisine and service, where you can book in advance and visit in the evening.
We took the junior room (slightly larger than the standard one), because it was necessary to install an additional room. beds (in the standard it will be exactly cramped). Rooms are decent with good cleaning. The front desk staff leaves a lot to be desired. They immediately settled in the “standard” and with an honest face assured that this was a “junior”, add. the bed was carried all day and after the hundred and first reminder they brought it.
I had to go and spoil their nerves and myself in the end ...They apologized and sent a present to the room in the form of a bottle of rum and fruit. In general, they are all very leisurely and cheerful there, they dance and sing everywhere.
ALL food, food and drinks at a high level: variety, a large selection of meat and fish, delicious, everything is fresh, freshly prepared natural juices, a lot of fruits and desserts. Alcohol is also a good choice. And with such an abundance, she didn’t get better at all, because you can always choose a low-calorie diet.
The beach is excellent: fine clean sand, the entry into the sea is excellent, there is no wave, the depth is good for both swimming and just splashing around, the water is blue and clean, there are no living creatures. There is animation on the beach and by the pool. But not for children, they will be bored. We talked with tourists from Punta Cana, no one said about the excellent entry into the sea at the hotel.
Sunbeds should be occupied from early morning if you want closer to the water and under an umbrella, otherwise you can find a place.
For a change, we took a couple of excursions from the host "blue". I must say right away that by choosing the La Romana area, you will be a little limited in the choice of excursions, because it is located two hours from the airport and Punta Cana, where most holidaymakers are concentrated.
1. Caribbean adventures - on a catamaran in the Caribbean, transfer to a speedboat and sail to the shallows with exotic clams and shells, starfish (you yourself are looking for them), change to a boat and sail along the Chawong River (lunch on the open deck). I liked it very much.
2. Catalina and Altos de Chavon - on a catamaran to about. Catalina (landed, you rest there), you visit the city of artists Altos de Chavon (excursion), then by boat along the Chavon River. I liked the tour of the city, but Fr.
You can definitely not visit Catalina - entry into the sea is bad and there is nowhere to lie down because of tourists.
3. Santo Domingo - worth a trip for a general idea of the country and its history, we also visited three cave lakes. Interesting trip.
4. For those who are interested, you can take a "siquarium" at the hotel - this is a trip in special helmets along the seabed (you leave a week from the hotel). We took interesting. Although the bottom is not very picturesque. All excursions are not cheap. Yes, and in local shops and shops, everyone is trying to cheat you and take the maximum from you. Maybe because the country is not rich, there are many very poor people. But in this country, the desire to deceive is especially conspicuous.
Have a pleasant and memorable holiday for everyone in the Dominican Republic, visit this place by all means!
