We enjoyed the ocean. I’ve had room problems. Willing leaking from above bathroom and 3 of our 10 days stay were in bad conditions. Food not as expected. The only place you can eat as soon as you go was the buffet. At restaurant we had 2 hours waiting and received food already cold. Best place to eat was at restaurants at preferred club location for both Secrets and Dreams resorts. Stuff has no experience but some of them are really trying hard. Really onest , the resorts ( secrets and dreams- at Playa Esmeralda) don’t deserve the price we’ve paid.

The beach is incredible, one of the nicest in the Dominican Republic. The pools, rooms, food, drinks and coffee house were very good. Our butler also was a gem and answered all our questions, made dinning reservations and even walked us to different areas of the resort. My wife and i enjoyed our stay very much.

Unbelievable beach with NO seaweed and relatively calm waters. Sand was gorgeous and plentiful beach area. Tons of chairs and Cabanas. Pool area was sleek. Dinning was amazing with great options and fantastic food. Only thing that was a disappointment was the maid service. They didn't leave the room in a disaster or anything like that just that they would forget to fill out the mini bar little things like that so other than that really really good experience
