Amazing experience as expected. It's our second time at Ocean El Faro with the familg and we had a blast. Shoutout to Juan the absolute goat who always made sure we were taken care of where needed and Dania the most amazing maid lady who always did a wonderful job cleaning our rooms.
5/5
A resort with the best service!
Charmaine F
We returned to this resort this year because we enjoyed our stay last year so much! The service here is first rate. Our butler, Juan Ogando, was amazing! He greeted us everyday asking if there was anything he could do for us. He was professional, friendly, knowledgeable, extremely efficient and was always ready with an answer. Definitely a value-added service. The rooms were large, clean, comfortable and beautifully furnished. We had an ocean view, so absolutely loved it! It was close to all the restaurants and a few steps from the beach and pools. The cleaning staff were friendly and efficient. Dania in particular was there every morning with a beautiful smile, ready for some friendly conversation and asking if there was anything we needed. The dining was first-rate, again, the staff fantastic. Our favourite was the Privilege restaurant for lunch, the El Beso Pez Dama for breakfast and Blue Moon, Margarita and the Steakhouse for dinner. The tennis and pickleball courts were very well maintained and we used them almost everyday we were there. We used the racquets and balls they supplied and were pleasantly surprised to find they were in good condition! All in all, our experience has been fantastic and would love to return next year. One of the best resorts weve stayed in, in the Caribbean.
5/5
Great experience.
dimpleg2015
I was skeptical at first Becasue of the mixed reviews. We did. It have a privilege room. We booked the adult area and were in building 10. I felt it was the perfect location to all
The amenities. The room was spacious, with 2 large beds, a sitting area and a large balcony. It was very clean. The washroom was pretty big and clean as well. They clean your room daily. The adult section was very quiet. We walked over to the beso side and were very pleasantly surprised. It was super well
Maintained. Loads of restaurants to choose from but book these early as the timing you want may not be available. I dont think the hotel
Was near at capacity. Which was great for us Becasue we didnt have to wait in long lineups. The tepanyaki was amazing. The Mexican not so much. We didnt have time to try the other restaurants. The Buffet was great in a variety and tasty too. We tried the dinner and breakfasts. Nightly entertainment and bowling was a blast. The lazy River was my favourite part as it also had access to the swim up
Bar. The beach was not great as there was sargassum but we expected this. The waters were choppy. All in all we enjoyed this trip. The only downfall was the beach. Oh and you cant chrome cast on their TVs.
