I would rate this resort with the following stars:
5 star for personel service and kudos to Angel the golf cart Driver, David the time share Promoter, Bartenders Jessica, Gabriel and the Best one not sure of her name at the main adults only pool Mariolis? the bartender.
5 Facilities where really nice and manicured
3 stars for food in general, breakfast was the best, we tried some of the a la carte restaurants like Bloved and Toscana, in one of them they offered grouper and gave us red snaper instead without telling us, The food in general was just like banquet hall food Very lame.
3 Star for The room. We purchased an upgrade to access to the pool directly from the room was a big plus. But we had to kill more them 8 little tiny cockroaches and the bed was too hard for comfort.

Our room was spotless, the staff were great and the food options were plentiful ! The only complaint we had was the iron, it was a struggle getting wrinkles out of our clothes ugh

Beach- Best in the DR! We never had an issue finding a palapa after breakfast. The towel stand was beside the sushi bar that smelled like sewage.
Food- We thoroughly enjoyed the food at the adult buffet (Monday and Friday only for dinner; daily breakfast). The pastries were fresh. Lunch at La Isla-chicken burger and potato wedges were our favorite. Dinner at Tao Cat was the best. The sampler & pork with sweet and sour. Rodeo steakhouse was a total bust. Service was very slow & pork skewers were undercooked. Cheesecake was good.Reservations were usually required for the a la carte restaurants.
Drinks- Caipirinha with double Leyenda rum was our go to. Margarita & champagne were also good. Lobby bar closes at 1am!
Entertainment- there was usually live music or some type of show until 11pm. Kept us entertained from our balcony most nights while we smoked cigars.
Room- Very spacious and clean. Maid staff was sooo friendly. The shower is large enough for 4 people and has double shower sprayer and rain head showers. We didn't realize until the end that there are 2 maids (morning & nightly turndown) who serviced our room. We tipped both. They provide water soda, beer, peanuts, oreos. Hand soap vs bar soap.
Negatives - I wish there was a late night snack bar. They have pastries during the day at the lobby bar but not nightly. When you're drinking until 1am, you need fries, chicken tenders, pizza, etc to soak up the alcohol. Room service had next to nothing after 10pm.

The hotel's main advantage at this time is the seaweed-free sea, so be prepared for it to be crowded. The sun loungers by the sea are tightly packed in about 10 rows, but you have to reserve a spot in the shade by 8 p.m. The green area is quite large, including a family area where you can stroll. There are many different restaurants, which require reservations, and unfortunately, the food is poor. We only liked the Italian. The breakfast buffet in the adults' area is excellent and varied. There are many fun activities throughout the day to suit every taste. The gym is modest. We didn't leave the hotel. The large glass bottles of water in the room are inconvenient. On the beach, water is only available in glasses. Overall, a solid four.

We lost our time managing the toilet flush down, with bad smell and noise
We also found cockroaches in the room
We had to require a room change but holidays were spoiled, after two days; holidays were already spoiled

The service was terrible and the food was mediocre. Furthermore, the attitude of the staff was atrocious and disrespectful. The cups, cutlery, and plates were dirty and smelled putrid from being either unwashed or poorly washed. Not to mention, the drinks were insulting while the only worthwhile enjoyment was the beach for how clean and clear it was. In conclusion, there are much better hotels in Dominican Republic compared to this one.
