Radisson Colon 2000 Hotel & Casino at Cruise Port & Duty Free Mall

Radisson Colon 2000 Hotel & Casino at Cruise Port & Duty Free Mall

10/10 Excellent
"Tengo varios años de hospedarme en este hotel y nunca me ha decepcionado, por el contrario cada vez siento que hacen un mayor esfuerzo por satisfacer las necesidades de sus clientes. El trato cordial de Mariangel ayuda a marcar esa diferencia. La habitación estaba bien mantenida y la cama muy cómoda para dormir y descansar después de un día de trabajo. El desayuno con solo ofrecer los huevos frescos al gusto hace una gran diferencia."

Caribbean Haven Of Nature 'Preci Beach'

Caribbean Haven Of Nature 'Preci Beach'

10/10 Excellent
"This is a great place to slow down and enjoy the sea and on-site amenities, including a pool, hot tub, sand volleyball court, and kid-friendly play spaces. This is very much a home that the owners make available to guests. Cone, the on-site custodian, is available and helpful. It is somewhat remote and while getting there is a bit of a challenge, once there, the serene and peaceful setting allows you to really unwind. At no time, was safety a concern for any of us. If you are looking for a pristine, sterile location this may not be for you, but if you want to feel welcomed into someone’s beach house in a magnificent setting, this place is excellent."

"The hotel is a sleepy bed breakfast located close to the coast next to a tiny village. The property is older it could do a facelift. The single rooms are small, but functional. The air condition worked great. The pool was a big plus .The staff was very helpful and accommodating. My biggest concern was lack of communication when we tried via Expedia to get more information about directions and check-in. However, it worked ok in the end."

"Was alone most of the time, only person running the restaurant was around. Good food. Not really good beach, hard rocks underfoot in water. Town doesn’t have much to say for itself. But if you want tropical quiet then this is the place."
