The pool is beautiful. Let’s dive in, so I got to the resort late at night my first impression was it being mediocre. I didn’t feel safe when the cab dropped me off, so so many people outside the resort in cars and bikes, they were the locals hanging out in front of the resort. Walking to our building where our room was 5 big cockroach’s like HUGE Water bugs, you know the kind that fly. I was confined to my room for the night because I didn’t want to pass by them again, I was starving but waiting till morning. In our room their was a problem with the water because it smelled horrible like a dead rodent in it so we were unable to brush our teeth or bath to do foul order. I complained the next morning to front desk and they changed me to another room in another building. I must say no problems in that room. It was really nice and clean with ruining water. Regarding the beach, since it is shared because it’s public, you do get a lot of solicitation which can be annoying. The food is really not the best, no traditional Dominican food, it is catered toward tourist. I must say the pasta sauce they cook it for you on the spot that was really good. Desserts, hamburgers and such things need drastic improvements they were horrible tasting. Over alI I can say the staff was friendly. If you are looking for a quick inexpensive vacation that is not a fancy resort this would be it. The other guest were all from different parts of DR not foreigner
