Recommended 😎🍹🌴

This vacation was supposed to be my husband and I's honeymoon. We got information from the travel agency and consciously chose this hotel.
We arrived at the hotel in the evening and were assigned a room where nothing worked. The balcony door didn't close, so the air conditioning didn't work, the fridge didn't work, the water in the toilet ran and there was a strong smell of mold.
The next day we went to the reception and asked the gentlemen to give us a new room because all the things didn't work and we had 2 single beds in this room. We were asked €450 for a new room. 2 days later our travel companion Mr. Michael made sure that we got a new, nice room and we are grateful for that. For 4 stars and all inclusive, the food and drinks are very poor. You wait on
Buffet for minutes for e.g. fries. Drinks such as cola are all diluted with water and cannot be drunk.
As far as activities go, it's really great. The boys Ivan and Luis have our respect. They do their job great
And are very respectful.

We arrived afraid because of the comments we read. But we really loved the hotel. Many activities, good buffet although some things could be improved. But in general very good, for people who are not so demanding. Very good cocktails, clean rooms. Very good beach service. Good coffee. I loved it.

Top facility and it is right on the beach. Unfortunately, cleaning and cleanliness are only done superficially. Ala Carte restaurants that belong to the hotel are unfortunately only 0 8 15. Inferior and poor quality. But for people who have little experience with good food this might be good for them. The buffet restaurant is tip-top with no flaws. Cocktails drinks without real taste and is also 0 8 15. Maybe it is oriented for US Americans. Everything was just sweet. All-inclusive guests usually get drinks in plastic cups and those who pay for their own drinks on site get a great cocktail in a beautiful glass. That was strange. The dream of eating seafood in this hotel (or in this country in general) can be forgotten because there were only a few types of fish on the buffet counter, but for me it was enough because there is no real food culture here.

I had a great experience at Vista Sol. The resort is very nice , very clean rooms , nice food, nice activities to do , nice staff

Very pretty. Details: minibar only has water, all outlets do not have European access, and the WiFi is horrible

Good location of the hotel. The hotel itself is very nice, green, peacocks walk around, the beach is large, a little destroyed by erosion. The ocean is great. The beach strip is very long. Ideal for walking.
But the service is very poor. They asked to bring an extra bed for the child, but they never received it. The room smells of mold, the sink is broken... it hasn't been repaired for a long time.
For breakfast there are not enough tables, food, glasses.... The food is mediocre. But there are a lot of bars. And there is delicious pizza on the beach.
I highly recommend the Mexican restaurant: delicious, high-level service. Atmospheric.
In general, we would not return to this hotel again.

Beautiful, well-kept hotel complex with a great park. Service and food is good. Beach and loungers also good. The hotel's own shops are overpriced, but outside the complex there are small supermarkets for shopping, e.g. for travel souvenirs etc. Tip: the rooms in building 5 are brand new and well equipped with a great sea view.

This was our 5th time at Vista Sol. My Wife and I LOVE it there.
We were there from Feb. 16th to the 23rd. We always stay in the VIP area, it is so worth it. Thank you Omar for the room we requested, and a SPECIAL THANKS TO YENCIE AND ALEXANDRA. The 2 best bartenders in the world. These 2 ladies are amazing.

Excellent hotel, I went with my 8 year old daughter and my wife, very clean rooms, excellent location (100 meters from the beach) and exceptional service

Great resort with activities happening every day. Spent 14 days there and Abraham and Christopher at the swim-up bar were fantastic. Love how they trimmed the coconut trees. Would definitely go back.

I was worried due to some comments, but you can travel without fear. The place is incredible. Extremely clean and comfortable room. Several restaurant options. Snacks and drinks all day. Very helpful employees. They were always nice to me. I needed a pharmacy for my son, Mr. Mercler at reception quickly sorted it out. The recreation is really cool, we loved the foam day in the pool. The beach in front is beautiful, be careful with children because the tide is strong.

Upon arrival at 8:30 p.m., I was just given the map to find my room among more than ten buildings with my luggage and a magnetic card. After a certain time of adaptation and identification, I arrived in my room, what can I say, there was dust everywhere, a cotton swab in the cupboard, traces of spilled coffee on the table and black traces of dirt on the cover bed. I was in shock after a long trip. I changed rooms, it was cleaner.
The catering is another story, in the restaurant "le gourmet" a big cockroach was invited to my table but I fled. The main restaurant, the buffet and always the same. During the entire stay I ate raw vegetables and fruits and eggs the rest was inedible.
It's disappointing for a 4 star.

Perfect for a family and relaxing vacation to do without hesitation and to do again

The facilities for entertainment was great . The pool was located in front of the balcony of each room and had a nice view . The ocean with white sand was amazing !

This is a 2/3 star resort at best!! Wasn't too impressed and definitely will not be back.

We found the food absolutely horrible. Kind of reminded me of Cuba with the lack of condiments and bland food. Only decent food I had was food that was cooked in front of me ( omelets/eggs in the morning, pasta in the evenings). My wife has a dairy allergy and they had a hard time understanding that ( even with Google translate). Rooms we found were dated. Beds incredibly uncomfortable.

Overall experience wasn't good, definitely over priced for what you get. Would not recommend staying here.

The receptionist was little to no help
Dirty rooms and cold food at the buffet
Staff needs training
Had to pay $10 for access to the safe in the room. Would not recommend and definitely wont be returning!
