Hispaniola Adventure Holidays

Riu Republica was an amazingly good time, staff from the Front Desk to the Maids were absolutely wonderful. I would recommend this to new travelers as well as seasoned. I did not want to come home.

Property was excellent

The service was awesom. The entertainment team its the best of the world! .....

Muy tranquilo Perfecto para descansar y desconectar

The food was subpar for such a pretty environment. It was a challenge to get reservations for dinner, which took away from a good experience. The staff was very friendly and courteous. Kelvin was an awesome concierge who took great care of us. My room was cute but smelled of paint thinner during my stay. The issue was resolved but did not leave a great impression. The front desk never answered the phone and I had to make requests via the app. Housekeeping was wonderful. She left pretty towel art everyday with beautiful flowers. The bars by the pool closed very early for an adults only resort. The drinks at each bar were not consistent and I ended up wasting it because of the watery taste sometimes. The young lady at the Spice Bar made the best drinks with a beautiful smile each and every night. The excessive seaweed on the beach was never cleared so you could not enjoy walking on sand. I walked over to the resort next door so that I could walk on the beach because they cleared it every day for their guests.

Property needs lots of repairs and renovations. Staff was great.

Great spot to relax and recharge It stands by its name Sanctuary!

Great Hotel and Service, but Disappointing Beach The hotel itself was excellent. The property was well maintained, the staff provided outstanding service, and overall the resort experience was very enjoyable. The only downside was the beach. During my stay, there were massive amounts of seaweed washed up along the shore, which made the ocean unusable for the entire trip. While I understand this is a natural occurrence and not the hotel’s fault, I do feel guests should be advised upon arrival so expectations are clear. If the beach is not a priority for your visit, this resort is a wonderful choice. However, if ocean swimming is important, I recommend checking on seaweed conditions beforehand.
