The property is postcard beautiful but we didn’t like our room. The sofa was damp, as if it had been shampooed and not dried (they put a nice blanket on it which made it fine) but the room also smelled like smoke which was quite unpleasant. The a/c was very loud and created an intense vibration in the kitchen, one bathroom and part of the bedroom. Two of the sitting chairs were the most uncomfortable chairs we’ve ever sat on but the bed, sofa and dining chairs were very comfortable. Sleep wasn’t good because of the a/c noise (louder than any of the other 4 hotels we stayed at on our visit to the Dominican Republic and louder than any hotel I’ve ever stayed at anywhere). So while the hotel is stunningly beautiful outside, it was our least favorite on our trip and we won’t return.
