The apartment was beautifully decorated just like it is shown on the pictures. It is very spacious (we were a family of 4). We had arranged thru Volalto for a pick up at the airport but they were not there at our arrival. We managed to make arrangements with local drivers when we realized no one was there to pick us up and ended up paying $40 instead of $50. Out of all the places I saw online, I'm glad we picked this one as it was very nice and well care for. The one thing that would've been nice and an extra perk is if the beach bar would've served some quick lunch meals. I did hear that they may be working on that in the near future. There are two supermarkets within walking distance. The bartender was a new guy from Colombia? Venezuela? Who had just arrived there about 2 weeks ago. He was super enthusiastic, wanted you to have a good time and made really nice drinks. The beach area is not super big, there has been a lot of erosion; however we never had trouble getting chairs while we were there. Keep in mind this is DR, it is resort after resort after resort. Also keep in mind, DR runs in DR time. Outside of hotel there are some average restaurants and the service is super slow; so come prepare to relax and not be in a rush or too hungry ;-). The kitchen was well stock w/ the basic condiments, coffee, pots and pans. The couple of things I did not see was oil, a peeler, and salt. It would be helpful if there was a list recommending what things to bring or buy that they do not supply. They were plenty of towels. I thought Benjamin (the man who greeted us when we arrived) had mentioned that we would have a cleaning person every two days, but nobody showed up. We lost power 2x while we were there but it came back quickly and it was throughout the area. We spent approx. $60 in electricity for 5 days and we used the AC throughout our stay. The gym is also within walking distance and my teenage kids used it a couple of times. It was $5 a day or you can purchase a week/month pass. It wasn't super modern but had all the basics. We rented the condo thru the managing company but there are also owners there; the reception area was a little akward. One woman sitting at a desk seem to not be too interested in anwering questions and was more interested in taking care of the owners - not sure what her role was since she made no effort to help us when we were standing there waiting for someone to greet us. The other person at the reception can get you a cab if you need one. Since we rented thru the managing agent I'm not sure what their roles were. Lastly, we did not rent a car. I read later that we could've arranged for a cab to take us to another beach or to explore a little more but again no one offered this information when we got there. I would've like to explore a little bit outside of where we were. Allow plenty of time to get thru the airport chaos on the way home - it takes awhile. Source: Flipkey/TripAdvisor

My family and I stayed here last year during spring break and I always meant to write a review, but never took the time to do it. This year as I was investigating rentals for spring break, I was reminded of how valuable they are! We LOVED this condo! The unit itself is beautifully decorated! However, the best part is the view from the patio and the proximity to the beach. It was amazing!! You really can't beat the stunning views!! Ada, our booking agent, was outstanding and extremely helpful. The only problem we had was when the air conditioner wouldn't come back on after the power went out for the whole complex, but Benjamin took time out on his Sunday evening and came and fixed it for us! Ada also helped us book our transportation to and from the airport. Julie, the concierge, was great too! She helped us book all our excursions and made all the arrangements for us. The condo had everything we needed including plenty of beach towels. The beach chairs on the beach were never full and more often than not we were alone in the pool! There is a BAM market right across the parking lot that has most anything you need and several restaurants too. We really enjoyed the one called Citrus. We had an amazing time and would recommend this unit to anyone! This year on spring break we were constantly comparing it to Playa Turquesa! If we ever decide to go back to DR, we definitely will stay here again! Source: Flipkey/TripAdvisor

Vacation accommodations were great, however, I never received my $200 deposit. I tried reaching out to Volalto and Trip Advisor but was unsuccessful. Will not recommend this site to anyone until I resolve the issue with my refund. Source: Flipkey/TripAdvisor

Location was perfect, property was just as advertised. Property had everything we needed, and more. We could walk right out to the beach and also one of the kiddy pools and adult pools. The pool beside our unit had a swim-up bar that was always open. Our villa was clean, nicely decorated and spacious. The beach bar/restaurant was perfect... great food with a great price. The staff was friendly and very helpful with where to go and eat/drink off the property. We had BAM grocery store right outside the property and many great places to eat and drink within walking distance. The beach is fabulous we could walk for miles either direction. Will be back again.
