Rooms with direct pool access pose an increased risk to young children. For this reason, Schauinsland-Reisen requires a minimum age of 6 years for children when booking these room types for safety reasons.

Note

In the Caribbean, most rooms are equipped with two queen-size beds (approx. 1.40 x 2m). For occupancy of 2 adults + 1/2 children/3 adults, no extra beds are provided in the room, meaning occupancy: 2 people per bed, even if extra beds are listed on the confirmation!

  • Ecostars

Hotelhinweis

Formerly Garden Suites by Melia.
In the Dominican Republic, washbasins or even bathtubs/whirlpools can be openly integrated into the general living area of the hotel room without spatial separation.

Seasonal information

For stays between April and December, increased occurrences of seaweed and algae can occur due to wind, temperature, and currents. In particular, an increased presence of brown algae is frequently recorded in the Caribbean during this time. The beach and the sea may be affected by this. The hotel management and local authorities are, of course, striving to clean affected beach sections in cooperation with the municipal administrations. However, the use of appropriate equipment is required for this, which causes a light background noise.
