The only thing I could add to this perfect stay was the possibility for more dinning options in the few restaurants that were opened. Met some great people. That was my second time, definitely will be returning for a 3rd...

It was okay at best. Food was not very good. From the display to the style to the taste and freshness, none of it was good. It was on the clean side. Could use a few updates and beach could have been cleaner.

No regreso mas a ese hotel
Mi experiencia fue terrible, al llegar y al salir la cerradura de la puerta de la habitacion no habria y tuve que esperar mucho tiempo porque 5 personas no podian abrirla y al salir ocurrio lo mismo. Con un calor insoportable esperando en el pasillo del hotel. Eso es inconcebible en el hotel mas caro de Playa Dorada. Ademas la comida fue muy mediocre

The hotel staff is great and go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The food is great and always well spiced. It would be nice if this property had another bar in the lobby area and if they would invest in carrying higher quality liquor including international drinks.

The buffet food was mediocre at it best, the food at the restaurants you have to reserve in advance was ok, the Oregano restaurant was the best, there is absolutely no drinks on the bars that you can enjoy, the worse piña colada I ever had in my life, the color was a dark white, I stay on the room with a swim out pool, they cleaned it every day, they did a good job in that respective area.
