Loved everything about this resort, great service and staff, I was very impressed by the manager as he rushed to help me with a bag I had dropped. They have great selection of food but didn’t have much taste. No hot water. But I would go back in a heartbeat and will recommend this place.

This is my third trip to BlueBay in Puerto Plata. My partner and I returned after 12 years because we had such a great experience on our honeymoon. This time, the attentiveness of the housekeeping, front desk, food service, and bar service staff remained outstanding. We were disappointed in the activity options and the activity/entertainment team's ability to pivot during nighttime activities. They were unsuccessful getting couples to participate in a game one evening and just played music when no one volunteered. The second night they attempted a couples game, they did recover. I was accustomed to the staff really getting people involved, even if they came up to you and encouraged you to participate. The staff did not seem as equipped as previous teams to do that effectively. Otherwise, I had a relaxing vacation. I also appreciated that no one tried to sell us a timeshare like they did 12 years ago. The only people approaching us wanted to help and encouraged us to take advantage of the Spa, which we did and thoroughly enjoyed.

Went to dinner and there was fruit flies around the salad bar, and ants in the white rice. I had to record it to show management. The room look like a motel and that’s been nice about it. The bathtub/shower water clogged up every shower we took. Food was horrible the beef taste like rubber, just had a bad experience at this resort.

I never had to complain about a hotel . These pictures have a lot of filters on them you would think that this hotel is next to luxury . The bathroom looks old like a motel bathroom . The rooms are dull . The balcony is ancient. Trust me I travel every 3 months . This place looks nothing like the pics . The food is horrible !! And the staff is only nice on the over night shift . Wasn’t a welcoming place and next time go to DR . I will get a luxury airbnb

I returned to Blue Bay because I was very satisfied back in October. Please note that all of the employees were hospitable, professional, and well trained. However, it appeared that they were not fully staff. The rooms were not thoroughly clean, and the lock was broken in the first room we were assigned. We were then assigned to a second room that had issues with the hot water. In addition, it is not necessarily all inclusive because wifi and lockbox had additional daily rate.
