I went with a group of 9 people total with 4 separate rooms. We booked through a travel website, which could be the difference with our experience and others. The rooms were...terrible...then we got used to them. Honestly, we didn't spend any time in the rooms but the A/C did not work in ANY of the rooms (per staff the... More

I cannot have asked for a better vacation. The pictures online don't do this place justice. The resort is beautiful with amazing views of the ocean, mountains, beaches, and pools with waterfalls. Swim up bars, buffet food, and private restaurants don't disappoint. The staff is amazing, everyone is so friendly and willing to help with any questions you have and... More

Firstly, when we took the taxi ride to the resort we were amazed how mountaineous and beautiful Puerto Plata is, much different than other islands I have been to. The first room we received in building 5 was nice only if the Air Conditioning would have worked. The building 1 through 6 didnt have airconditioning working and there were alot... More

Loved this place. I was nervous based on some of the reviews I saw, so I prepared myself for the potential "terrible food", "rude staff", "weak drinks", "timeshare stalkers" and "horrible room"...but I didn't experience ANY of that!! The food in the buffet was delicious. Sure, not everything was fabulous, but there was a great selection, and I always managed... More

My husband John and I are Shareholders and stayed in a 1 BR refurbished Royal Suite. This section of the resort is very quiet with a central pool which was nice to dip into when hot. The suite consisted of a modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances, living room, separate master bedroom, and ceramic and glass bathroom - wow, couldn't... More

When we first arrived at Lifestyle we were very disappointed. This was not the type of resort that we normally get from Cheap Caribbean. The lobby was very plain, the counter was all scratched up and sticky but we thought we shouldn't judge by the lobby. All the other resorts we have traveled to have looked like the inside of... More

We booked our trip through cheap carribean. My husband and I stayed 7 nights and 8 days. Puerto Plata is beautiful! We did not opt for the shuttle to the hotel so we payed $40 for a cab and gave him a $5 tip. The cab ride was interesting. It was a personal car owned by the driver which just... More

This place has it all, whether or not you like to stay busy with excursions and entertainment or just like to lay out and relax. The staff is AMAZING, super friendly and helpful. The entertainers Banana and Spaghetti were my absolute favorites and made the trip for us. I won't leave out the other greats as well such as Blacky... More

On 5/10/13 my husband and I checked in to the Lifestyles Tropical resort for 4 nights. First of all after reading some of the reviews here I come to the conclusion that some people are never happy.

I must say I went to Lifestyle Tropical Resort and Spa with low expectations from reading other reviews before I went, however I was plesantly surprised with what I experienced the week I spent there! The entertainment was by far the best part of the trip! Our first day at the pool we spotted the hunky John Cena instructing water... More
