Independent East Coast hotels

" Not good"

"Everything was great except the espresso machine in our room was broken."

"This hotel needs to be closed for renovations. It is falling apart. Doors to the room barely holding shut, handicapped bathroom door completely busted and will not close. Pool has coudy water. Food was terrible and getting worse by the day. Steak at "The Cut" dinner was like rubber, deserts like a silicone. Handrails on some stairs falling down and unsafe.Beach was not cleaned and full of seaweed. Property next door was cleaning beach fine, not this one. Liked coffee shop though. This hotel if far from 5 star, closer to 2.5. "

"Beautiful hotel, amazing people "

"Very friendly staff and a beautiful resort overalls"

"Very modern and spacious room, pool and beach are amazing. Not a party resort! You can have a lot of fun but also very relaxing. Food was ok."

" We stayed at Grand Bavaro Princess for a week. To start with the positives, the property is visually beautiful. The landscaping and restaurant interiors are well designed, and the à la carte options, especially the hibachi and Il Tartufo, were solid. Some staff members were genuinely kind, most of the parties were fun, and the coffee was surprisingly great. Unfortunately, the negatives outweighed everything. Our room had a strong mold smell and a large dehumidifier that filled with water every 45-60 minutes, which we had to manually empty ourselves or it would shut off. Instead of switching rooms they just sent someone to spray and cover the smell. After seven days, both of us had headaches, coughs, and itchy eyes, and all of our clothes smelled like mold at the airport. The bathroom drains smelled like sulfur, mosquitoes were constant, and housekeeping skipped days. The pool water was cloudy with debris, umbrellas were limited, and beach vendors would not leave you alone. Worst part is the st even hotel staff repeatedly pressured us to attend a membership presentation and would not take no for an answer. For the price, it felt very overpriced and we would not return. Lastly, food was mediocre, tasteless, one time I ate packaging paper that was mixed in a vegetable dish. Stay at your own risk."

"My room was pretty with a garden view, the staff was pretty good except for times receiving wrong information from different staff members pertaining to checkout and meeting Amstar transportation rep. The food was horrible I would rate it 3/10 the food was cold at both buffet restaurants. "

"This is a beautiful and clean but dated resorted. The food was good, not great. The steakhouse and buffet was our favorites and the Mexican restaurant was our least favorite. We loved the piano bar. I felt safe and we never got sick. "
