Elizabeth from the bowling alley was the absolute best. The children had so much fun. She takes great care to cater to your needs and truly enjoys her job. It was a pleasure meeting her and she truly exemplified what great customer service is. Definitely will be back.

Wonderful experience. Don’t be shy to ask for anything you need, they will definitely accommodate you for what you need.
The food and room service left some room for improvement but it didn’t make a significant impact to our experience.
I highly recommend trying them out for a week. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. We would definitely come back.

Luis and Omar and were amazing to us. Very friendly and very willing to serve us and make our vacation amazing. The two of them our leadership material and deserve opportunities within your company. Many of your employees can learn lots from the two of them to make very happy customers. The two of these gentlemen are a real asset to your company.

The resort is excellent! We have been several times now and we have thoroughly enjoyed ourselves every time. The facilities are clean and well-maintained, the staff is exceedingly kind, courteous and attentive and the setting is beautiful.
We spent most of our time in the Privilege areas, and I must say that the pool bar staff is amazing! Omar, John and Christina are so much fun, they make excellent drinks, and they make you feel welcome and special. Many thanks to them for making our stay the best!

My husband and I stayed here for a week during low season. We expected that we would receive top service, as the resort was rated 5 stars on many platforms. Let me just say that we will not be returning here. Our mini fridge was never replenished. We finished our small supply of bottled water that was provided, and had to pretty much beg the front desk several times for more water. The front desk promised that it would be delivered, which it never was until the fourth or fifth request (we gave lots of time between requests for the water to be delivered to the room - literally two whole days went by over the course of all the requests).
The best restaurant to eat at is the buffet (it is the most consistent). I got food poisoning on the night that we decided to try the Mexican restaurant. I was sick from our second last night at the resort and for another week once we got back home. The rooms and bed sheets were damp with the humidity, and I even noticed black mould growing in the bed pillows. However, the staff at the lobby bar were amazing, and truly were incredible, hard working employees who cared about customer experience.
Im not a complainer, but I would like for Ocean El Faro and others looking to book their vacation at this resort, to know about these issues. We did have a great time and made the most of it. We love DR and will be back, but will definitely be trying out a different resort.
