You may have already read some reviews about this resort, and I must say, me and my partner who have returned from a 2 week stay at this resort yesterday, were shocked at the bad reviews it has received, particularly some I have read on this site. This is a 3* star hotel, it will not have all of the... more

This was the first trip to the Dominican Republic for my wife and myself. The resort was as discribed in the brochure and the staff were very friendly and helpful. There was a wide selection at the buffet retaurant and produced to a good standard. There is a very good pool bar and the Banana Mama's are highly recommended. The... more

Just returned from 1 week at the Hacienda Gardens. We booked this as a bit of a last minute holiday and took pot luck with allocation on arrival.

I was apprehensive about the resort after reading the negative reviews but it’s not that bad, you have to keep in mind that it is a 3* resort. The rooms were basic but clean.

The main thing you have to bear in mind with this resort is you're not paying to stay in paradise. This is a budget way of travelling and staying in the Caribbean so you can't expect it to look like Antigua or Barbados. If you can live with that then you'll like this resort. We spent 2 weeks in the... more
