"This stay was great the only problem was there was no beverages close to the pool. Also the property was different to find once you get into the complex"

Playa Dorada King Bed Beachfront

10/10 Excellent

"I, LIKE EVERITHING NICE AND QUIET VERY GOOD STAFF AND HOST IS EXCELLENT I, DINT LIKE THE PARKING PROCESS SOMETIMES WAS VERY DIFICULT TO PARK NEAR THE PLACE ALSO THAT WE DONT HAVE RESTAURANTS AVAILABLE TO USE FOR US EVEN WE PAY AOUT OF OUR POCKETS BUT SO FAR WAS WONDERFULL LOVE THE BALCONY AND SHOPPING NEARBY WAS GREAT"

Modern Beachfront Condo w/ Private Outdoor Pool & Patio @ Emotions Playa Dorada

8/10 Good

"Unit could use some maintenance i.e. the shower head holder in main bath was missing, several pieces of baseboard around cabinets are loose. However the furniture is well maintained, water is triple purified and safe to drink, bedding is new. and decor is great. Perfect location for a daily ocean or pool dip. Renters should be aware "Evolutions" resort where the unit is located will try to charge double the normal taxis fare rates and if renters purchase the "Evolutions" inclusive meal package you will need to fight to get a reservation in the restaurants (even if the restaurant is empty} the resort will try to send you to the less expensive buffet line."

Golden Sands Beachfront 3-bed Penthouse @ Emotions

10/10 Excellent

"Golden Sands was exactly as described and right on the beach as pictured! The unit was impeccably clean and well-outfitted. Beds are comfortable and the ac worked well. Communication with the property manager was a breeze. She was extremely responsive and quick to address any questions we had. The one downside of the resort is that it has awful wifi connectivity and cell service. Due to the lack of wifi, using the smart TV was impossible. "
