Great Hotel during the week
11 years 5 months ago
Great hotel with good bars, food and entertainers. Nice and relaxing during the day either by the pool or on the beach. Spoilt at weekends when the hotel is taken over by Locals and Dominicans on cheap deals. I am a fussy eater but definately would not starve at this hotel, in addition to the main Buffet restaurant there are 3 additional restaurants ( reservation required )a Gourmet, Mexican and a Brazilian , plus a beach bar serving snacks such as Burgers,chips and Pizza into the early hours ( I am told it is open until 5 am) . The entertainers work hard to get people involved in activities around the pool , but if you do not want to they are not persistant. The pool is clean and apparently the largest available and it offers a free scuba diving lesson. The rooms in the block we stayed in (block 8 ) were spacious and clean although our's had a damp smell plus an issue with the ceiling over the bath.The evening entertainment was energetic and enthusiastic.

Upon arrival at this hotel we were welcomed with a fruit cocktail and the staff were very helpfull.
The room was nice and clean and the air conditioning was a godsend! Staff were very helpful and very happy. The hotel was beautiful. The food in all of the restaurants was of a very high standard, and the buffet restaurant was exceptional, but could get rather hot in the evening, due to no air conditioning just a few fans. Always plenty of food to choose from and even lobster once a week! The pool area was really nice and clean and one of the nicest pools I have seen. The beach was lovely and clean and we spent most days there because of the lovely breeze.
I had a pedicure at the spa, and it was very nice, would definately recommend.

The entertainment team was very professional and put on very good shows in the evening, great costumes and brilliant dancers. They were not to pushy if did not want to take part in activities.

All in all a fabulous holiday and of a high standard, I would definately recommend this hotel and cannot wait until I go back!

You will meet people who will tell you that this hotel is the best one on this side of the coast. After staying here I have no reason to disbelieve this claim. If you have the opportunity to stay here then go ahead.

Exceptional cleanliness, the food is fresh and excellent, the beach is beautiful and staff polite and helpful. I was on my own for a week for a bit of R&R and it suited my needs very well.

Whilst delayed at the airport I spoke to people who told me the horror stories of their hotel. No such stories at the Hilton..just quality, peace, and class.

Stayed here in June.

Lovely hotel food great but nothing to do everyone goes to bed around 9ish nothing to do. l've never heard so many kids say they are bored on holiday it's not for kids and its not for poeple that like a little night life.

The resort you can walk round it in less than 10 minutes so after 1 week a lot of people ready to go home. We were there for 2 and l must say l was glad to leave

Hotel & Grounds

Overall very nice, kept immaculately clean. Only complaint would be the lack of shaded areas around the pool. This was more of an issue at the weekend when the locals descend on the hotel en mass. The first weekend this happened, they became quite raucous & rowdy and really took over the hotel
