Had a lovely stay at Ocean El Faro - Adults only. Highly recommend this resort.
Pros:
-Beautiful grounds and decor, perfect for photos.
Plenty of amenities with daily activities like Spanish lessons, workout classes, pool parties, shows, bowling, gym, and shopping. There's also a casino.
-Clean resort with constant upkeep, though the pool turned green one day but was quickly fixed. Room cleanliness was decent, with some small mold specks (7/10).
-Wide variety of food options, not all great but satisfactory overall.
-Secure property with security guards patrolling the perimeter and stationed near our room.
Cons:
- Customer service varied; some staff were warm and helpful, while others were dismissive. Speaking Spanish helps.
- Persistent salespeople offering excursions and spa days, polite but frequent. The "Dominican Market" event featured very pushy vendors who used scare tactics, claiming to appear only once every 15 days, but we saw them again just 2 days later.
Overall, again, would definitely recommend this resort!
