Reviews
Immediately upon my arrival I attempted to check in and was told that my fiancé was not allowed to stay in the resort with my booking. She is from the Dominican Republic and according to Gran Ventana my booking was for foreigners only. They proceeded to charge me 40% more than my original booking, only because I was with my fiancé who is Dominican.
I was planning on meeting with a wedding coordinator and exploring my options about having a wedding at this location in the near future, however any chance of this was immediately erased when they scammed me.
No where in the booking was this ever explained and I advise using extreme caution when both booking on Trip.com and booking at the Gran Ventana Resort. I would love for a representative or a manger to reach out to me.
Comparing with Resort packages sold by Costco travel, this resort in 3/5.
All other reviews are in line with my observations too.
It's old resort. It is maintained well but needs renovation.
Pros: It's still Caribbean experience, very beautiful beach, few free activities that are not free in resort normally, excellent staff who is doing their best to attend to your need. Restaurants are above average.
Lot of activities- you just need to book it in advance and ask for it.
Cons: Average food and subpar drink, limited food options, small pool, their obsession above beach towels inventory, small resort, smaller rooms.
if you are vegetarian like me, Food options can be limited but no different from other resorts. Loved fruits but go early for better quality. Try Italian restaurant, it's good.
