Title: Worst Resort Ever – Traumatizing Experience at Playa Bachata! This place was absolutely horrible! I don’t even know where to start. The room was disgusting — AC didn’t work, fan didn’t work, toilet barely flushed, and everything felt hot and dirty. The pool was filthy and there was only ONE pool open for everyone. The beach was dirty, and it just felt like nobody cared about keeping this place clean. The food was nasty, drinks were disgusting, everything tasted spoiled or watered down. To make things worse, we saw huge roaches in our room and around the resort. That alone was enough to make me want to leave. But the worst part — my daughter got stung by a sea urchin at the beach. The so-called doctor at the resort was so money hungry and unprofessional, using a needle to pull out four sea urchins from her toes right there like it was nothing. No proper care, no compassion, just attitude and greed. My daughter was crying and scared, it was traumatizing to watch. This resort is a complete nightmare. Do not waste your money or time here. I wouldn’t stay here again even if it was free. Playa Bachata is the WORST resort ever.

Great hotel in a beautiful location! Do not book the standard room that sleeps 2-4 people if you have more than 2, as the room doesn't come equipped with the beds - you need to book a family room instead or waste a few hours on your first day trying to get an extra bed. The room is falsely advertised as 2 double beds, or 1 king bed - but the hotel explain that they do not offer double beds and it should say 2 single beds or 1 king bed. Other than that, a lovely stay, and credit to the reception team and manager who understood our frustration and helped us out.

The hotel was pleasant overall, although there are a few areas that could benefit from improvement. For instance, upon arrival, the security personnel did not permit entry until the official check-in time of 3 PM. Consequently, I had to wait outside with my children, as I arrived at 2 PM. Furthermore, the room appeared somewhat outdated, and the air conditioning was not functioning optimally. The food service need some improvement.
