Stayed here for 3 nights and was not impressed. The resort is very basic and average. The price made sense once I got there and seen what was offered. The food was not good quality at the buffet and the restaurant Oregano was only slightly better. The wait staff was usually pleasant and were quick to notice you sit down and get your drinks. The drinks were super sugary and very limited. Only 1 local beer option and well liquor for the few mixed drinks they make. The room was average and showed many signs of wear and tear. The sheets had some small stains in places and the glass in the shower was not clean. The floor seemed clean and the a/c worked but the remote was a little touchy. The bed was overall pretty comfortable as were the pillows. It downpoured for the second half of my second day there. The entire resort was flooded and the walkways had 6 inches of standing water on them. Its a beach resort so not the biggest problem except for during this rain a friend staying 1 room over had the ceiling in the bathroom start pouring down water. He called the front desk as well as placed a complaint on their website where you can post issue you are having. No on showed up or called him back. The next day we stopped by the front desk, they said they would get someone over there and still no one showed up. I had no hot water in my room on the 3rd night and another friend I was with that was in a different building had no hot water for 2 days with no help from the front desk.

Room was spacious but it was a bit musty or humid smelling. Room service was slow so it’s better to go to the buffet.

Everything was close so not a lot of walking which was great since I had my elderly mom. Dominican restaurant wasn’t great so we stuck with buffet. Lots of variety. The only thing I would say is the room needed somewhere to sit other than the bed.

When I arrived no one greeted me, gave me a welcome drink our helped with my luggage. Check in was very slow. The wifi was not working. The main area to eat was buffet and was mediocre. My adult jr suite was good. Our pool was cloudy. The beach was nice but they had the chairs pretty far from the water. Drinks they only one name brand of alcohol. I asked for a 2hrs extend time cost me $30.00. The employees that worked everywhere besides the front desk were helpful and very nice. But shout out to Chemi who worked in the wine bar not sue what I would have done without him he was AWESOME!

I really enjoyed my stay here at emotions. The hotel is beautiful, rooms are spacious and clean! Food was pretty standard but overall expected due to it being “resort food”. I came here for my Babymoon and many of the staff members were super helpful with accommodations and supporting me. Love that everything is walkable and the beach is beautiful! Lots of daily activities and for sure family friendly. I would for sure stay here again!
