Hi Kat225club,

Ocean Blue and Ocean Sands is all one resort Blue rooms on one side and Sand rooms on the other side of pools.

we stayed here in October and it was fine. There were a few niggles, like the quiet pool closing for a week without warning but the hotel was very very quiet when we went. The staff were lovely, the public areas very nice and clean. The rooms were basic but clean and the beach was gorgeous.
There was lots of choice when it came to food and drink and we didn't have to wait long to get served. The BBQ nights by the pool were lovely and we had many a lovely evening spent sitting in the lobby bar.
The good stuff far out weighed the niggles and considering what we paid I think we got a great deal. Oh and don't upgrade to VIP- it's so not worth it, we didn't but others did and felt it was a waste of money.
Have a lovely time :-)

I have stayed at the Ocean Sand/Blue twice and love the place. Yes it is all the same resort like another member said sands on one side and blue on the other. The rooms are beautiful everything that you need. The food is amazing you must must go to Mikes coffee shop and try the iced coffees with caramel and toffee they are to die for, or the fruit smoothies Mmmmm. I cannot think of any negative things to tell you about the place it is truly amazing, Wish I was going back this year but I am trying Cuba for a change. You go and enjoy yourself and yea I am already envious of you. I cannot remember exactly how much the Golf was I think between £45-£60 not cheap really. If you need to know anything else please feel free to get in touch with me. Hope you have a great time.. :cheers :sun2

Great to hear some great things about the OB, We are off (Volcano permitting!) on the 26th May for two weeks! Counting the days.............Already a minor setback with Thomas Cook down grading the plane for our journey to & from PC..........That should be fun, 29" seat pitch & no seat back TV/entertainment with 2 kids :sulk :sulk :sulk ..........
Anyone else off to OB on the 26th from Gatwick?

you'll have a fab time- hope you are not delayed by this darn volcano! We loved it,Mike's is indeed a great coffee house with some yummy cakes and the Mexican and American dinner restaurants were our favs- and we always got a table although it was super quiet when we went to DR. Am very envious, would love to be going back!

We`re off to the Ocean Sands in a few weeks and were just going to take some US$ with us, but only cos someone advised us to take them. Why are they better than the Dominican Peso, or should we take those intead?
Thanks in advance

Can I ask about "extras".

Do you have to pay extra from the room safes? The Wi-Fi?
Apart from the 2 restaurants & bowling & golf not included, are any other (apart from the usual) extra?

Thank you :wave:
