The rooms were clean. Ther service was good and friendly. The food was lacking, serving many leftovers and not to the taste of this american. This was all inclusive but you paid extra for minibar and for a safe in the room. It was not very relaxing because someone was always trying to sell you something. The hotel was selling time shares. There ...

Review for Coco Hotel in Sosua, Dominican Republic
I had the tremendous good fortune of staying at the Coco Hotel in Sosua, DR for eight days in December of 2007. I was pleasantly surprised that the owner, Jerry, was willing to pick me up at the airport. He was extremely communicative and responsive while arranging my stay. Jerry is ...

Riu Merengue Paradise
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 04/17/07
This was our fifth trip to the Riu Merengue in the past five years. We love the people, the resort atmosphere and the excellent food. We have tried many all inclusive resorts, but when we started going to Puerto Plata in 2002, we haven't been anywhere else. We feel for the price for two weeks fits our budget and we have never come away ...

You will love Puerto Plata
By Jamie, 05/12/06
This was the adventure of a lifetime! Our resort, The Sun Village, was amazing. But it was the people and the villages that made it so unforgetable. Don't be afraid or nervous to travel around. It is imperative to experiencing the Dominican life. We took the public taxi (not the same as a regular taxi), the public bus and even an motococho ...

I had an excellent vacation!
By talge07, 12/09/05
I stayed at the Sosua Bay hotel and it was excellent. The snorkeling was UNBELIEVABLE! The water was crystal clear and the marine life was beautiful. We went in the beginning of August and the weather was beautiful. I think for our whole one week trip it only rained once. There were a few things that I didn't like. Outside the hotel were ...

We'd Go Back In A Heartbeat!!!
By skizyx98, 10/26/05
Went to the DR last summer and had a wonderful time. Stayed at an Iberostar Resort and loved it. The people were extremely friendly. The resort was beautiful, relaxing and had everything! The beach wasn't powdery white, but still nice. Knowing a little bit of Spanish would have been helpful to communicate with the locals on a more personal ...
