The resort holds 282 rooms across standard doubles and junior suites on an All Inclusive plan that includes buffet breakfast. Twelve pools, nine restaurants, twelve bars, two full-service spas and gyms, a casino and a kids’ club fill out the grounds, which open directly onto the resort’s own Cofresí beachfront area.
The pace is busy and social. Evening entertainment, a nightclub with a DJ, water sports and a casino keep days and nights full, and the beach setting is the property’s strongest asset. Rooms lean dated and maintenance varies across the buildings. Staff are friendly, though service consistency fluctuates, and securing reservations at the à la carte restaurants can take persistence. This is a high-energy family resort rather than a polished retreat.
Stays run on an All Inclusive meal plan, and buffet breakfast is included with the rate. The nine restaurants, twelve bars, twelve pools, two full-service spas and gyms, casino, kids’ club and activity lineup from tennis to yoga are all on site. The All Inclusive plan determines the coverage of individual facilities and services.
The property has 282 rooms, with standard doubles and junior suites as the named categories. Junior Suites are the listed suite option. The accommodation range is compact compared with the resort’s extensive dining and activity lineup.
Standard doubles and junior suites are the two named room categories at this 282-room resort. Standard doubles form the mainstay of the inventory, while junior suites are the single suite category. With only two named families, the choice comes down to the standard room or the suite tier.

Dining spans nine restaurants and twelve bars, from Moontaz and Indochino to Bellini and The Pearl. Recreation includes twelve pools, two full-service spas and gyms, a casino, tennis, mini golf and a kids’ club, all within a resort that runs on an All Inclusive plan at Cofresí Beach.
Nine restaurants make up the dining scene: Moontaz, Indochino, Rodizio, El Pilon Restaurante Dominicano, Blue Lagoon Surf and Turf, Bellini, CasaBlanca, Trapiche Paradise and The Pearl. Reserving the à la carte venues can take persistence. Twelve bars, including Stars, Aqua, Cheers, Pirates Cove, Frost and Chasers, are spread across the property.

Twelve pools spread across the grounds, and the resort has direct access to its own Cofresí beachfront area. The Ying Yang Spa anchors wellness as one of two full-service spas and gyms on site.
