Moldy smell throughout the room as soon as we entered. Our room flooded from balcony overnight. All the stuff on the floor got wet. My mom even slipped when packing up our stuff. We informed staff but they took over an hour to send us smaller room for only 2 person for 4 of us. They didn’t give us key card for room; they said systems were down and they will change the room later. Limited menu breakfast to Caribbean food. We had to leave and book another hotel instead of staying 4 days.

Was nothing like the photos. The beach is terrible, the smell of seaweed/algae was unbearable. It didn’t help that there was literally mountains of it sitting right In front of us…..right next to the boat parking lot. The room was poorly maintained, the shower and sink was tiny and molded. The food was bad with very little options. I rated with 2 stars because I guess you get what you pay for..

The bathroom, water faucet smells so bad. The water in the pool was dirty too. Very poor and limited variety of Food, and everyday was almost the same. In general i will want NOT recommend this hotel to anyone. i have been in Punta Cana many times and this is the worst place that i havce seen so far. The hotel has nothing to do with what was advertised and there are seaweed everywhere and it is not being maintained or cleaned in front the hotel. We had to walk 1/2 mile every day to get to a clean beach . They first couple days had to move us to a new room because of a broken AC
