Dreams Dominicus La Romana

Everything was great I really enjoyed the stay and was so much fun. Yuliana was a wonderful dancer we dance beach aerobics & bachata and salsa lessons with her and her team.

The resort is beautiful! Definitely worth upgrading to preferred. The beach area is smaller than expected due to rocky beach front. However, the preferred beach area gives plenty of room. The only downfall was the pool bars close at 6pm. Not ideal as the sun goes down around 8pm. Overall great experience!

We have recently returned from a 2 week stay at the Secrets La Romana resort, staying in a Deluxe garden view room. On arrival we paid for an upgrade to the Preferred Club benefits but kept our room as per the original booking. In our opinion, the benefits of this upgrade were worth the money with full access to the Preferred Club beaches, pools, free room service, daytime restaurants and lounges on both the Secrets and Dreams resorts. The quality and selection of drinks was much improved. Our room was spacious, appeared to be recently renovated, well equipped and had a large comfortable bed. The housekeeping service was excellent. Our location of choice in the daytime was the Dreams beach area, this is more spacious than the Secrets beach and seemed to have the daily benefit of a sea breeze. The beach is very clean and the water is calm for swimming, snorkeling is not the best as the water visibility was easily reduced when the sea was not calm, however it is still worth trying. The selection of A la carte restaurants at both hotels is excellent and it is a bonus not having to book a table in advance, we waited no more than 5 mins on two occasions for a table. Noor was our favorite restaurant out of the selection. The evening buffet was located in the Dreams resort, we used this twice and there was a good selection of quality food. The buildings and grounds of both resorts are immaculately maintained and very well presented, possibly the best that we have experienced. The Sports Bar and Casino are worth a visit, shame they did not serve food in the Sports Bar during the daytime though. Entertainment at the Secrets resort is low key but you have the option of Dreams in the evening so there is plenty of choice. Our only negative experience was the amount of extras that were available that required excessive additional payment - Preferred Club, butler service (for people that are unable to move for lunch!), cabanas, outside dining at selected A la carte restaurants if you bought an overpriced bottle of wine, Beach dining event and so on. This is becoming more frequent at All-inclusive resorts but we felt that not having the option for outside dining unless you pay for bottle of wine was annoying. The staff are a credit to the resorts, they are all friendly, helpful and professional. Special mentions are Anabel, Raul, Luis and Ilveria at the Blue Bar and Abraham and Belgica at the Dreams Preferred Club beach. We will definitely plan to return in the future.

We have had a lovely couple of weeks at this beautiful resort. The hotel, together with its sister Dreams, are spotlessly clean. There's a wide variety of restaurants that serve excellent food. The staff are fabulous and always smiling and willing to make your stay really enjoyable. A few mentions specifically for Wendi & Diorka, the hard working waitresses on the beach. The happy chappy Alexis who looked after the towels, always smiling. Also to Felix at the Coastal Grill & Carlos at the Chinola. Too many to mention really. Would definitely return some time in the future for another happy relaxing break. Rob, Di & Hannah UK

Better late than never review! Travelled for 2 weeks from the UK for my 50th birthday, booked with Tui. We had a wonderful trip, our room, preferred club, was spacious and had wonderful views of the ocean and pool. Food and drinks - superb! As a vegetarian it can sometimes be hit or miss. Only issue was a waiter bought me out a fish dish one evening, after being told I was a veggie and given the order I wanted. Didn’t initially notice as it was a mixed dish, this was quickly rectified and the staff were very apologetic but it did put me off going back to that restaurant. Had a wonderful meal on the pier a couple of evenings which was fantastic. Never really used the pools as we prefer the beach, the sea was beautiful. We sat in the normal section rather than the preferred area as there was more space and we felt was nicer, also had a beach cabana a few times which was lovely. Staff all friendly and welcoming. ☀️
