Budget Hotels in Hispaniola, Caribbean

"For such a large 1300 room resort the access to pool and beach chairs was good. Room was clean and food was plenty but mostly buffet. Wish there was more table service at the specialty restaurants."

"Our family enjoyed the stay at ocean blue and sand resort. Our room was close to the pool and beach, and transportation to the lobby & restaurants was convenient. Experience at the buffet was average (service and food), preferred the other dinner restaurants but they generally had a long wait list. Japanese restaurant was great!"

"Best staff and beach area. We keep going back because of their staff, they welcome you with smiles every day. "

"Overall very average experience. The best part was the ambassador Francia. If it wasn’t for her I don’t think I would’ve had a good time. She was wonderful. The food was average to sub par besides a few dedicated restaurants. The variety was also only at the restaurants and reservations was a headache to do so. Staff was pretty friendly overall but occasional issues. The place was clean minus some hard to spot areas. Definitely should’ve had more things included with the package. Also the pool closing before 7 was a bummer."

"As a frequent Expedia traveler, I value the exclusive perks offered worldwide. However, I encountered several issues during my recent stay at this hotel. Firstly, we were subjected to a three-day experience in a hotel where the sea was closed due to a drowning accident. The reason for the closure was not provided, and there was a significant concern regarding the whereabouts of the lifeguards. Secondly, while the Dominican people are generally friendly, the hotel staff’s behavior was inconsistent. They were only polite when we showed interest in their breakfast or engaged in conversations about timeshare matters. Thirdly, the vacations were intended to celebrate my daughter’s fourth birthday, which falls on April 9th. She selected the hotel based on the beach (which was closed) and the children’s club, where she was denied entry because she was still three years old, despite being 361 years old. Fourthly, despite being a VIP guest, I was not recognized or provided with any of the exclusive perks that Expedia offers."
