Well what more can I say about this resort other than saying it will be my third time this year. When we first got there the first time we were a bit skeptical as it was 11:30 ish pm and there was no entertainment. Well except for the little beach bar down the beach playing some music off a computer.

The next day we got better aquainted with the facilities and all the area entertainment. The food was great teh staff awesome yeah the beaches were ot white sand but the sun was incredible and well if the color of the sand is the reasoning for your stay your missing out on all the other stuff.

Danced the night away every night at the Coco bongo and off the resort for most nights. It was great entertainment and great company.

Going back again in a few weeks..... Woohoo cant wait....

We stayed at this hotel for a weekend, this is our review: Rooms are clean and well painted but furniture is from the past century, bathroom was remodeled, it was ok. Food at the buffet "La Palma" was ok, not much variety. Pool was nice, but if you're planning to enjoy a drink while inside the pool, forget it, there is a troop of security staff to prevent you from doing so. There is another guy encharged to stop you if you try to come from the beach to the pool without taking a shower. There is an invasion of domicans during the weekend, including hundreds of kids,be aware. The casino was nice. There are not control remotes for the TV's in the room, you have to ask for one at the reception and sign a contract for it. The night entertaintment was ok, there is no discotheque at the hotel, only a open bar facing the beach after 11:00PM, the sound was awful, no lighting system. Shows at the theater were very nice as well as the hotel staff. Do not expect the beach to have white sand. We'll look for something better next time.

we just arrived home after a week at the occidental allegrp playa dorado resort and we had an amazing time. we left here june 21 and left june 28 and let me tell you that week was not enough. at first i was kinda scared becuase of reading the other reviews but when we arrived i felt comfortable. my sister, and cousin went with me and we are from ages 19-24 and we like to party and also relax and we did it at this resort. if you wanna go to a club and dance go to COCO BONGO!! it within the resort like 3 minutes away walking distance or if you wanna sit and relax than go to the entertianment show inside the resort and they have kids games befroe the do the adult enertainment.
but the entertainment at night was awsome and there would be different entertainment going on every night. Winston and Camoflage are awsome, if you see this please email me [--] i never said bye at the bomb fire. ohh ya and Camoflage Vanessa said sorry for lying and shes mad at you!!

during the week the weather was awsome. and the food was good. we ate at the buffet and than we also booked at the other three resturants they had the grill, italian and mexican. we preffered the italian. the beach was clean. the people would come bye and clean it up every morning. but the people who walk around and asks to bye stuff can get annoying just say no gracias or pretend your sleeping and they will walk away. but other than that everyone was friendly and we meet so many people. we are most differently going back next year!!!i mean with the amount of money you cant bet it.

We just got back from the Dominican again, Still a beautiful place :=} We would give the hotel a 2 HOLA rating and the staff well most of them we would give them a 4 HOLA rating. The hotel needs alot of work and doesn't have much variety for us. Chairs are broken, plumbing leaks, air conditioning leaks, no screens on the windows, lots of mosquitos, bed was unconfortable, our key fit more doors, the appearance wasn't a 4 star in out eyes. The staff was very friendly, curtious,happy( well most of them) food was good just not open long, drinks were plenyfull and cold :=} We did have the honeymoon suite with a great view of the ocean. We met a family there that had us over to their home and cooked for us cheapie cheapie :=} almost free That was the best ay of our trip they were beautiful people His name is Leo and they will set up trips or take you fishing great time his number is 809 857 2256 We think everybody going there should contact him Over all we did have a great time and left them with yet another few families that will be saying HOLA alot :=} We will be going back in November to rate another place. Do you know of a place that would like to have a couple stay and have fun? We are openminded and wanting to have fun in the sun as well as meet other happy people. We will be checking our messages more often not that we got it figured out :=} HOLA
