In the Dominican Republic, sinks or bathtubs/whirlpools may be openly integrated into the general living area of the hotel room without spatial separation.

Seasonal Note

During stays between April and December, increased amounts of seaweed and algae may occur due to wind, temperature, and currents. In particular, there is often an increased occurrence of brown algae in the Caribbean. This affects the beach and the sea. The hotel management and local authorities are of course endeavoring to clean affected beach sections in cooperation with the local authorities. However, this requires the use of appropriate equipment, which generates some noise.
