Had an excellent time visiting dreams dominicus. Grounds were well kept. Friendly staff and great food. Rarely ate at the buffet. However room service and the restaurants were fantastic. Beach was gorgeous and the room was very clean! Housekeeping staff was in daily to do a full cleaning of the room. We purchased the upgraded room to the master suite swim up tropical view. Although the “tropical view†portion was highly misleading. As we were staring at the main pool area and coffee shop. Se[... read more]veral palm trees to each side is hardly a “tropical viewâ€. I believe “courtyard view†would be a more accurate description for this rooms view. Still happy with the room but it was disappointing from what was expected or explained about the suite itself. I am not sure that I would have been as satisfied without the upgraded room as we used a courtesy room prior to departing and the features to the room were very dismal. A painful shower head in the general rooms was awful. The pressure was so strong we had to turn the water barely on and it was still painful. Would only recommend this resort, if you are seeking a suite. The bathroom in our suite had 2 rain shower heads and it was spacious and elegant. I would recommend editing the explanation of the view on this room as it is very misleading to consumers. However, I would recommend this to friends or family but warn them about the regular rooms as the upgrade is well worth the price. Included with the upgraded suite was the preferred club. I would highly recommend anyone to upgrade to the preferred club as the liquor selection is magnificent for Dominican and the private beach area is breath taking. Overall I would rate this vacation a 5/5 in relation to the resort. Although I was happy with the end result the description of the room may cause Trip Central or Dreams Dominicus some flack in the future for misleading/false advertising.

Dreams Dominicus La Romana
Overall good resort. On the smaller size than most, but enjoyed that as its only a few minutes of walking from lobby to beach.
Nice size rooms, needs some maintenance which the resort is taking care of.
Beach & Pools were great. Food was ok, nothing special.
I would return to this resort in the future.

Enjoyed our Holiday at Dreams Dominicus
What a beautiful resort. The entertainment staff stand out to me as being one of the best parts of our vacation. They worked so hard and were so enjoyable.
The food was also amazing . The a la carts were done very well and the food was excellent. It was great not having to reserve.
There is a few things that need improvement. The language barrier was a big one, a lot of staff couldn't speak English. At coffee bar wanted a Spanish coffee , they did not know what it was, and could not un[... read more]derstand us when we tried to explain it. It would be helpful to have a list of drinks with ingredients listed to delete the confusion at the bars. Also for some reason we often got mugs and glasses that were dirty. One night we got a beer with a straw paper cover in it . Also one morning my coffee mug had lipstick and imprint of lips on the outside of mug. Not sure if they dont have a good dishwasher or , it appeared the glasses and mugs may have just been rinsed off. This grossed me out.
I felt that at bars and restaurants they need to improve on their organization it often seemed they were running scattered.
There is not a lot of shade on the beach and we had to always ask for umbrellas . Just invest in more umbrellas ....problem solved.
I understand they just opened and i feel that if they listen to the reviews and address some of the issues this resort will be amazing.

Dreams Dominicus, La Romana is the perfect sized resort !
This brand new resort is beautiful.... or should I say will be. Give them some more time and the resort will be done. Amazingly calm turquoise blue water & a bay you can walk for miles. The Dreams chain of resorts exceeds all expectations with their personalized friendly & helpful service. This was my fifth time to a Dreams Resort and the food is always great. With construction still underway with some rooms we were not given our Preferred Ocean view room. Instead we were given a swim up [... read more]room which suited us just fine. [Nov 25 - Dec 2 2016 ~ theater & disco not open] All in all we will be back to this resort ~ but maybe in a couple of years when everything is completed and all the hiccups are ironed out.
