Dreams Dominicus La Romana

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a really wonderful stay and were honestly very positively surprised by this hotel. From the room to the restaurants and the overall atmosphere, we felt very comfortable throughout our vacation. The food was great, and Mare Restaurant was definitely one of our favorites. What made our stay especially memorable, however, were some of the amazing people working at the hotel. A huge thank you to José from the Infinity Pool Bar! He was always incredibly friendly, attentive and professional. He made amazing cocktails, listened to our requests and always made sure we were happy. His positive attitude really stood out, and he is definitely someone we will remember from our stay. We would also like to mention Lissy from Mare Restaurant. She was so kind and helpful and immediately came to help us when our bag accidentally fell down. She moved tables and helped us find everything without hesitation. It may sound like a small gesture, but moments like this really show how caring the staff are. Another very special thank you goes to Carlos from Security. After a serious incident at the pool, he went above and beyond to make sure that we felt safe and comfortable again. His support, kindness and professionalism meant a lot to us. We also want to sincerely thank the management for the way they handled the situation. We felt that our concerns were taken seriously, and everything was handled professionally, respectfully and with genuine care. Their response gave us a strong feeling of safety and showed us that the well-being of their guests truly matters. There are only a few things we would suggest improving. The smoking areas could definitely be more comfortable, especially by providing seating and some shade. We also think having Security present around the pool area could provide guests with an additional sense of safety. These points did not change the fact that we had a beautiful vacation and left with a very positive impression of the hotel and its staff. We would absolutely recommend this hotel and would be very happy to return in the future. ❤️

I stayed at Secrets La Romana with my partner and while the resort itself is clean, well‑kept and visually impressive, our experience was badly affected by poor food hygiene. The grounds, pools and rooms were all spotless and the staff were friendly, but unfortunately both of us became ill for over five days during our stay. We weren’t alone either — several other guests we spoke to were experiencing the same symptoms, which strongly suggests a wider issue with food handling or buffet conditions rather than an isolated incident. It’s a real shame because the resort has a lot of potential, but the food hygiene problems overshadowed the entire holiday. Until this is addressed properly, I wouldn’t feel confident returning or recommending it.

Before I get to my thoughts, a huge shoutout to Fray Uberia and Raul Cabero! They took extreme care of us. They knew our drink orders, the best way to pour a great drink, and learned most of our groups names by day 2, but the end of day 8 they had it down packed for all 8 of us! Please please please go see them! Fray is in the buffet of Secrets side and Raul is at the preferred bar! Good resort, no nightlife, and plenty of food options that are okay.

We had an amazing experience at Secrets Spa & Resort in La Romana, and a huge part of that was because of Fray Ubiera! Fray was an outstanding waiter — incredibly friendly, attentive, professional, and always willing to go above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. His positive attitude and genuine kindness really stood out to us. He made us feel welcomed and truly helped make our experience at the resort even more enjoyable. Fray is a wonderful representation of the resort and deserves to be recognized for his excellent service. We truly appreciate everything he did for us and hope he knows how much we enjoyed having him as our waiter. Thank you, Fray, for making our stay so special!

Fray was always so kind and attentive to our family of 9. As soon as we walked in each morning to the Secrets buffet he greeted us with a smile. He made our week even more enjoyable!
