Best resort in the Dominican
If you want to have fun in the sun, look no further! Loved my morning walks and the amazing lattes. Honestly I was expecting to spend my time exploring the area but ended up having way more fun meeting other guests and enjoying the resorts different daily entertainment - especially Alejandro. He knows how to “get the party started” 🎉🪩💃 I’m already planing my next visit as I didn’t want to go back home!

Great time with friends
We love this resort and the staff. Second time here and no complaints. Isaac and Miguel at the small buffet are so sweet, Juan Carlos at the pool bar is amazing and Esteban the supervisor makes sure everyone has fun. Mario at the sports bar is also so fun. Hector is the lobby bar makes the best espresso martinis Pool is warm, food is plentiful. Coffee at Mikes is superb! Great trip

Beautiful Resort - perfect vacation!
This was our 4th visit to El Faro and by far our best. Our last visit we said we may not return but came this week (we are Premium Members) with family and friends. A group of 16. Our room is perfect. One bedroom suite facing the ocean, steps from the sand. It’s been well stocked and tidied all week. Our Butler Deiby Santana is absolutely fantastic!! We would request him every time. He is available, takes excellent care of us and adopted our whole group! Sandino at the Privilege Lounge bar is the master of diabetic friendly Ice Capps! He’s fantastic. Hammurabi remembered people in our group from last year! He’s an excellent server with a huge smile and fantastic service!! We’ve eaten room service, steakhouse, Italian twice, Route 66, Buffet a few times, Creperie, Ocean Burger and of course Mike’s Cafe. Enjoyed every meal and snack. No complaints! We will return next year!

The staff can really make the difference.
Planned a week in the sun with my bestie. Had a great time overall. I had intended to relax by or in the pool but beware...the energy is contagious...they have people who try to get you to" join the party". While I wasn't about to do water around ics on vacation(I did once) i really enjoyed the people who got you to join these competitions, parties and events. One particular person stood out, Alejandro was the one who managed to get me and my bestie to join a couple of games, one that we won a bottle. His energy really was contagious. While there were other staff that helped make it a great experience it was him and his events that helped to bring our vacation to the next level. I had been looking forward to the white party on the beach and he did not disappoint.
