It is sad that I feel I have to write such a bad review as the property itself is nice, with lovely gardens, views and beach but the service was terrible and the staff rude and unhelpful, the easiest way to explain is by listing the issues: 1/ The buffet dinner was awful so we tried to book into a...

The bottom line...if you want a fantastic beach, great food and service, spend a few extra dollars and go to Punta Cana. With that being said, I have to say that I can't believe how people really expect a Four Seasons experience on a Motel 6 budget. I had a good time at the Barcelo Capella. The staff for the... More

After reading all the reviews we were a bit disappointed, but I tell you one thing: if you are used to 4,5- 5 star resorts, then probably this would be not enough. My wife and I travel a lot on business in the US, Europe and couple of times per year to the Carribians, we stayed in all the possible... More

THIS IS AN ALL INCLUSIVE RESORT / HOTEL. IT'S LGBT FRIENDLY. As american you must pay another $10 when you arrive to this country (DR-Dominican Republic) before you can proceed to Imigration. We have transportation ready to take us to hotel, so fully recommended that you booked your transportation in advance from your agency or trusted website. Make sure you... More

When I had read a lot of the negative reviews,I was worried about vacationing here. Let me be clear based on our experience: THIS RESORT IS GREAT!! DON'T LET PICKY REVIEWERS KEEP YOU AWAY FROM THIS GEM. We stayed at Barcelo Capella Beach Resort in Juan Dolio for three nights April 16 through 19, 2012. Check in: The resort is... More

Things you should know before you decide to stay here: 1. The rooms have an overwhelming smell of bleach, perhaps trying to disguise the smell of mold and mildew which cover the walls. It did not work in the first room they gave us! 2.The rooms are very run down and are in need of a serious update. The first... More

Stayed here for 3 nights, there are tons of activities and sports available on site. The resort is actually much bigger than we expected and the beach is stunning. I would give this place a 4 star but the food is so bland that it does not deserve more than 3 stars. Open bar, all inclusive was amazing we pretty... More

This was the filthiest place I have ever seen! The rooms have no ventilation...too humid! Your towels will never air dry. The floors are slippery from all the humidity! I would not recommend this place for the life of me. I only went because it was part of a convention I had to attend. I couldn't wait to leave! The... More

This a great place to go if you are flying into Santo Domingo, as I understand the hotel has a shuttle that will pick you up at the Las Americas Airport in Santo Domingo and from there is about a 20-30 minute ride. We always rent a car since my husband is from there and is used to the driving,... More
