5.6/10

My stay at Be Live Experience Hamaca Garden was quite an adventure, but not the good kind. The hotel is old and ran into serious issues during my visit, especially with the service and room quality. While the beach was amazing and clean, everything else felt disorganized and disappointing.

Rooms

5.0

I was given a room that looked old and unkempt, with issues like a broken A/C and leaks. After a lot of hassle, I was moved to another room that also had problems, including the A/C sparking and almost causing a fire. Thankfully, we managed to get moved again only after I threatened to escalate the issue.

Service

5.0

The staff often seemed more focused on their phones rather than helping guests, which really put a damper on the experience for me and my family. It was frustrating to deal with them, especially when I needed assistance with the issues in my room.

Location

5.0

The beach was beautiful but super crowded, and if you didn't wake up early, good luck finding a spot. Plus, the hotel layout made it hard to get to some facilities without a long trek.

Dining

5.0

Dining at the buffet was disappointing; the options were limited, and I often found dirty utensils at the tables. The food quality just didn't match what I hoped for a vacation.

Facilities

5.0

Facilities felt understaffed and poorly maintained. It was hard to get basic items like beach towels without paying upfront and keeping track of a receipt, which shouldn't be necessary at a resort.

6.8/10

My experience at Be Live Experience Hamaca Garden was disappointing overall. While the resort's location near the beach is a definite plus, the service and condition of the rooms left much to be desired. I encountered several issues with my suite, including malfunctioning air conditioning and problematic plumbing. The dining options were subpar, leading me to seek meals at local restaurants instead. 😞

Rooms

5.0

The initial suite I received was far from the quality I expected: the air conditioning was ineffective, and the plumbing issues were frustrating. After expressing my concerns, I was moved to a better room, but it still had problems like slow-draining water in the shower.

Service

5.0

While there were a few friendly staff members, the overall service was inconsistent. I had a pleasant interaction with a helpful staff member at the front desk during a stressful moment, but generally, I felt the management was lacking in support.

Location

5.0

The hotel's location is ideal for beach access with calm waters, but the resort itself felt outdated and needed attention. Additionally, there were cleanliness issues, such as leftover cups and clutter around the pool area.

Dining

5.0

The dining experience was severely lacking, with food that was often inedible. I ended up spending extra on meals at nearby restaurants instead of dining at the resort, where I had limited options and consistently poor quality.

Facilities

5.0

The resort's facilities seemed in need of repair and upgrades. The gym was particularly disappointing with many broken pieces of equipment, and room service was lacking in efficiency and quality.

6.8/10

My stay at Be Live Experience Hamaca Garden was frustrating, though some aspects were enjoyable. The sea was beautiful and clean, but many issues overshadowed the experience. From the construction near my room to rude behavior of other guests, it felt chaotic rather than relaxing.

Rooms

5.0

I encountered significant issues with my first room, as it had an awful smell and was far from the main amenities. I had to pay extra to switch to a different room, which thankfully had a pleasant view but still had a loud noise from nearby machinery.

Service

5.0

While I found some staff members kind and sweet, the overall service was chaotic. particularly at the front desk where many guests seemed frustrated.

Location

5.0

The location is quite poor, as it gets crowded quickly. It was difficult to find a sunbed unless I arrived extremely early in the morning.

Dining

5.0

Dining options were limited and located in another building, which was inconvenient. The food quality left much to be desired, with items like hot dogs repeatedly served at the buffet.

Facilities

5.0

Facilities were disappointing. With extra charges for swimming pools and other amenities not mentioned in package descriptions, it felt misleading.

6.8/10

My stay at Be Live Experience Hamaca Garden had its ups and downs. The beautiful beach and varied dining options were highlights, but I struggled with room cleanliness and maintenance issues. Overall, while I enjoyed some aspects, there were significant drawbacks that affected my experience.

Rooms

5.0

Unfortunately, my room had a bad smell that reminded me of mold, and I struggled with maintenance issues like a broken toilet throughout my stay. Despite these concerns, the room itself was fairly spacious.

Service

6.0

I found the hotel staff to be friendly and eager to help, especially my maid, who did her best despite some challenges. However, I often faced delays in service when I needed assistance, which was frustrating.

Location

8.0

The resort is well-located, just about 30 km from Santo Domingo and close to the beautiful Boca Chica Beach. It's easy to access local attractions and the wonderful beach area, making it a lively spot for visitors.

Dining

6.0

The dining options were plentiful with diverse cuisines available, and I enjoyed the selection at the main restaurant. However, I did notice some cleanliness issues with food areas and fly presence that wasn't ideal.

Facilities

5.0

While there were various amenities available, I was disappointed with the condition of some facilities like the plumbing in my room, which wasn't addressed promptly despite my reports. The overall facility maintenance needed attention.

6.6/10

My stay at Be Live Experience Hamaca Garden was quite the ride, with some sunshine and fun moments, yet marred by issues like no hot water and a lack of service. The beach scene was nice, and the Italian restaurant stood out, but the overall experience fell short of my expectations.

Rooms

5.0

The room I first got looked abandoned and was poorly maintained. After complaining, they switched me to a slightly better room with a broken window that I had to fix myself. Not a great start!

Service

5.0

While some staff were friendly, many seemed uninterested, glued to their phones instead of attending to guests. The check-in was a disaster, and it felt like they didn't prioritize customer service at all.

Location

5.0

The resort is in a decent location, but if you want a good spot at the beach, you'll have to wake up early to claim your spot. The beach area for guests was super crowded and felt way smaller than expected.

Dining

5.0

Food options were limited, and the buffet lacked variety. I noticed empty areas waiting to be refilled. On the bright side, the Italian food was solid, and the staff in that restaurant provided good service.

Facilities

5.0

The facilities were outdated, and you had to pay for beach towels, which is totally unacceptable for a resort. The lobby was cramped, and the absence of a lobby bar was inconvenient.
