my stay at hacienda was ok. me and my homegirl had a better time on cofresi beach where we met people who made you feel at home! please go visit the beach shop to your left when you come down to the beach look for gabi he has great deals on all things to take home and they are the only shop on the beach that has a bar that sells beer, water, and brugal mmmmm!!!! Sounds good right, plus he plays very good music while your tanning on the beach. Also if your looking for some fun like going to the waterfalls or doing a little riding on atv's look for pedro with the beautiful eyes. He always has the best deal's on any excursion!

Excellent holiday total relaxing, the gardens were clean and well maintained, the room was clean and tidy no bugs to be seen! don't know what these other people are on about!! I paid for me and my mate to stay there for 2 weeks and we had a good time...not suitable for young children as there isn't much to do for them apart from the pool although Ocean World is only a stroll up the beach! found all the local people friendly and helpful and had no reason to complain about anything, we enjoyed the food and never went hungry and never had a dodgy belly once. I can't wait to go back.

OH my god what can i say it was the worst 2 days of my entire life me and my partner booked through my travel we was suppose to of stayed at this awful dirty place for 2 weeks but 2 days was 2 days to many i wanted to get out as soon as we arrived but we had to wait for a rep to come before we could do any thing me and my partner went to the dom rep to make memories but all it did was cause night mares me and my partner never argue but them 2 days we did nothing but. i cried for 2 days. we met a couple of honeymooners it was not good for them but like us they got out of there we all ended up at a really nice place and had a happy ever after.

PLESE PLEASE PLEASE do not go here. me and my husband went last week for our honeymoon. This was not what we were sold so beware of this when you book. We were shown pictures from the lifestyle tropical beach spa across the road. The hotel across the road is lovely. We were in the garden hotel it was awful. The pool was dirty, the staff didnt want you there or to be there them selves, the pool bar was filthy and our room well what can I say. I will be posting photos when we get them developed. Our room was terrible, the floor was black from dirt I had to keep my flip flops on my feet at all times. Felt dirty when I got out of the shower. The ceiling had holes in it. The phone had no wires attatched to it and our room was not the only one. 20 people moved from this hotel in the fisrt two days that we were there and luckily enough we moved too but had to pay alot to do so. If we didnt move then my marriage would have been over. This was a honeymoon from hell. When we moved we went to a four star hotel which was amazing. Dream come true. The rep didnt want to know why we were moving and didnt try to resolve the problem. You are probably thinking why didnt they just stick it out? It would have made me ill. I couldnt eat the food. The food was so cold and under cooked and the drinks tasted funny because nothing was ever cleaned out. When we got to our new hotel we noticed that the bar was cleaned all day and the drinks machines were emptied and cleaned every day. I am not a snob but I do have standards and no one should ever have to lower them standards. We were miss led so if you are sold this hotel and you like it then thats good for you. We hated it and I dont want anyone to have to go through what us and many other couples did. We had to comfort so many people who were so upset because they hated it and felt helpless because they were so far away from home. Us and the 20 people who moved were lucky that we could afford to move. We know people who couldnt move and this was heart breaking. Please read reviews and make sure you are getting what you were sold. We also found out through the VIP reps that this hotel is being demolished around the 25 October 2007. So they are just running it into the ground.
