I had an incredible time at this resort! The location is perfect with stunning beaches and clean pools. The staff was friendly and went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. However, some of the dining experiences were hit or miss, and the rooms could use a little updating. Overall, the resort offers great value for money, making it a wonderful getaway.

I had a generally pleasant stay at the Iberostar Hotel Dominicana, featuring a lovely beach and clean surroundings. The pool area was nice, but the dining options left much to be desired with often cold food. There were some hiccups with service, though the staff was mostly friendly, which made the experience better. Overall, it's a decent choice but not without its flaws.

The resort offers beautifully maintained grounds, and the service is attentive, especially from staff like Juan. However, the dining choices are limited and repetitive, and some aspects of the experience are marred by poorly organized reservations and a lack of towels. Despite some positives, I wouldn't choose to return due to several inconveniences.

We had a great time at this resort, enjoying beautiful beach access and friendly staff who went out of their way to make our stay memorable. The rooms were clean and well-kept, but there were some minor inconveniences with construction noise and a limited pool experience. Dining options were good but could use more variety. Overall, it was a solid value for what we spent.
