  • VICTORIA from MERTON reviewed the Gran Ventana Beach Resort Hotel

  • "Absolutely loved the resort. Very clean and the food was great. The people who worked there could not be faulted. Very helpful and always very friendly. The pools were clean and there was plenty of space in them. The beach was a 3 minute walk away and was idyllic. Snorkelling was a must, looking at tropical fish in clear water. The room was very clean and big, although a little dated. We would definitely recommend this hotel and we would also go back."

  • Top Tip:

    "Take your swimming goggles with you. Take lots of $1 bills as these are great to leave tips for the very friendly people who work there."

  • Laura Dee from Oldham reviewed the Gran Ventana Beach Resort Hotel

  • "the staff were very friendly and helpful. the beach was right next door to the complex and was beautful, the coral started about 10ft from the shore and you could hand feed the fish. the level of security was second to none, as a lone girl walkin round i never felt intimidated once, and after all the horror stories about how dangerous dominican was i feel this is something to point out. the buffet restaurant was good quality, and the al la carte restaurants were even better!!! the rooms were good, very well air conditioned and tastefully decorated and secure. the evening entertainment began to drag after a week-theres a good looking childrens club which seemed to keep the children entertained-adults will have the songs stuck in their head for about 2.5 months after arriving home!! nothing is too much trouble at this hotel and anything which isnot there you want, wouldnt be a problem to ask for!"

  • Top Tip:

    "hemmingways is a brilliant pub, about 5 min away from complex, brilliant food and drink, the staff were second to none, all made you feel like regulars at your first visit. a 5 min walk either way on the beach reveals a completely different looking beach to relax and explore-including one with 4 poster beds!! the only negative about the place i would put is the local shops and how much the staff watch you. you take a step, they do. you look at something and they are throwing prices at you, it does get too much and is like no where iv ever experienced before! also id recommend shopping around for tours, the local shopping centre excelled expectations and deals compared to what the hotel could offer"

  • "Excellent value for money hotel. Friendly staff that can't do enough for you. Welcome drink on arrival most welcome after a long flight. Some rooms in need of a refurb though they were always clean and this did not affect our enjoyment of the hotel in anyway."

  • Anthony from Bristol reviewed the Gran Ventana Beach Resort Hotel

  • "This hotel is kept incredibly clean. The food was excellent and we heard no reports of tummy upsets. The themed restaurants were very good indeed and the staff were very friendly. Overall this hotel represented superb value for money and we would certainly return."

  • Top Tip:

    "The safari trip and Paradise Island are worth visiting. If you want to go deep sea fishing do not use the beach vendors as their boat is not too seaworthy and they make little effort to catch fish. Best to book with the English guys onsite."
