Hotelhinweis

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

Seasonal information

During a stay between April and December, there may be an increased occurrence of seaweed and algae due to wind, temperature, and currents. In particular, an increased presence of brown algae in the Caribbean is often recorded during this time. This affects the beach and the sea. The hotel management and local authorities are, of course, striving to clean the affected beach sections in cooperation with the municipal administrations. However, this requires the use of appropriate equipment, which may cause a slight level of noise.
