Hipódromo V Centenario Tours and Activities

We enjoyed the buffet, that’s about it. As for the hotel.. if you’ve never been to an all inclusive, and have no expectations, this place is OK. If you’re not there to enjoy being in the sea, you might be ok. This beach, while very calm, is the murkiest water I have seen/been in. There’s less than 1ft visibility. The sea floor about 10 yards in is muddy, yucky to the touch.. whatever you touch, or whatever touches you, you can’t see. The main pool and pool bar close at 6pm. The drinks are very limited.. the blenders seem to be more broken than working, so if you’re expecting frozen drinks, very limited. The bar tenders are fun but the quality of what you get is sub par. Rooms feel old and poorly maintained. We had an ocean front jr suite, the water pressure was low, hot water wasn’t hot enough or strong enough.. the tub was old an patchy. They think one towel per guest per day is enough and didn’t understand why I wanted more. A/C thermostat was broken, luckily was broken on overcooling.. seemed that a lot of things in this hotel are broken and that they don’t really understand what people expect when they pay top dollar for an all-inclusive vacation. I will never trust Expedia’s rating on any hotel again. I will not come back to this hotel or location.. I’ve been to a few much better properties in playa Bayahibe, and that’s where I’ll be going back to in the future.

The checkin was smooth, the whole resort had an awesome tropical paradise look, the room was clean and had nice private view. The food options were above average with many cuisines for your liking. The staff were great and catered to my needs. I also liked the all adults part because it made my stay more relaxed not having to deal with children issues. This trip was definitely worth it and made the right choice because I like to eat real good foods.

The hotel and views were amazing.
