Viva Miches by Wyndham

I just got here today 28th of May. I overpaid for for this.

Let me start by saying we love this island and have often vacationed here. My review will not focus on food, room or even location, but solely on the lack of any kind of service. At the buffet, line ups of folks waiting to get their own water, and forget any aknowledgement at the beach. You have no sense of any service. At the gym, although one older man was very nice, the younger ones are more interested in chatting up the girls then actually providing any welcome or simple hello. And forget internet or any tv station in English. But aside from all of that, I would of never complained. However being woken at all hours by noize and yelling from a filming crew, litterally parked at our window( room 2123). The hotel did not warn anyone or attempted to move our location. We could not even go outside or have our room curtains open. Wires everywhere and just no sense of privacy or peace. Knowing that Cuba and Mexico isnt very optimal for canadian vacationers, u would expect some kind of better sense of awareness and service knowing that we paid to be on vacation. Of course some things are out of our control, but this could of easily beend remedied. With only 2 days lefts, I am left feeling very disapointed at the state , or lack of service this hotel provides. As we pay to travel, and to enjoy this island , this has left us debating and rethinking what service means for an island that lives of tourism. We love the DR but they need to do better.

Found Gem in south east of Domenican Republic . Excellent customer service , awesome rooms , excellent food . Everything you need to disconect to the world. ( Well you will have internet anyway).

Location is far from everything, roads are really bad. Rooms are spacious but not soundproofed, you can hear every noise especially from the night entertainment. The room was not cleaned often and the bedsheets never changed in one week, they just made the bed. The gym lacks air conditioning, it’s impossible to work out as there are 40 degrees already at 7 in the morning. The beach is always full, there are not many umbrellas and all of them are reserved from very early in the morning. Don’t go to the Asian restaurant, it has very little of Asian and the sushi is inedible. Little value for the amount of money it costs. The Atlantic restaurant is really good and tasty though.

We tried the stand up paddleboards and a girl named Ana , in sports, was very helpful. Eventually I gave up and went to the tennis courts/archery range section of the resort. Yep, you guessed it "Ana" was there by the time we got there. She was SO VERY HELPFUL ! Turns out I'm better at archery than paddleboards. Thanks Ana, we all appreciate your patience and directions !
