Lifestyle Crown Residence Suites - All Inclusive - Puerto Plata

Excellent. Nice time. Beautiful rooms. Great food.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Bad food in buffet and runs out quickly. Restaurant reservations are hard to get. Only a few(2/3) restaurant open on a given day. Shuttle service is poor. It's not very close to the beach. Kids pool is useless. I was checking out at 6:45 AM and the Residents Suites desk was closed. I talk to main desk hotel at tropical and he said I can checkout in […] their desk. I got there and after waiting for few minutes for someone to show up, the time was 7:02 AM. Then he tells me that since it's past 7, I'll have to go back to Residents Suites to do the checkout process as it opens at 7. He offered to take the wrist band to smooth out the checkout process back in Resident suite. I went back to resident suites and now they won't let me checkout without the bands. I asked them to call Tropical but checkout lady hardly care about it. I had to go back to tropical to get the bands and return back to Residents suite to complete the process. Horrible service!

LOVED LOVED LOVED this resort. Relaxation at its best. The cabanas the food the drinks it was a great introduction to the relaxing life. As you come into the place they have drinks and music waiting for your. They always had some activity going on for both adults and kids. I enjoyed myself so much, I didnt want to leave. The zen bar area was my favorite […] spot they had the best food and drinks. The finger lickin chicken was my favorite. The only thing I didnt like was because this is an all inclusive hotel they had different levels that you were on so they tried to upgrade your for a couple of thousand dollars. Other then that I enjoyed myself and would go back ASAP. Read more

The hotel and staff was very nice. We had a great time at this resort. The food was average but not bad. The drinks were excellent. The pool was very nice and the beach was beautiful. This was my second time going there.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The worse hotel I've ever been to, the worse service. It was a nightmare. They only treat their VIP members very well and to become a VIP member you need no less than 18,000.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel was very nice for the cost you can't go wrong. The food was not very tasteful the resort is kind of isolated. This is not a vacation you want to take alone, but sure to included family and children.

Genuine Expedia guest review

overall we liked the hotel except for a delayed check in which was solely my mistake and the front office staff went out their way to accomodate us in the complex. we enjoyed the shows which were very deverse from typical hotels in the same industry. the interaction with entertaiment staff,bartenters, waiter/waitresses and other department was like […] family. very pleased, beautiful complex will definitely return Read more

This hotel is located in a big complex, everything happens at the tropical so the crowns in kind of dead, but the rooms are amazing and recently renovated. The food is not that great as you would expect in an all inclusive package. Night life is good at ice. The bartenders at las canas are excellent. I did see lots of coach roaches at blue lagoon restaurant […] and a couple of other places. But they were going to do pest control the week i left. The pools and VIP hammock beds are the best. I definitely recommend going with family, friends or a significant other. Read more

Had a great time hotel was very clean good food and great activities workers made me feel like I was at home there was always a shuttle to take u every where

Genuine Expedia guest review

For the price, this hotel was not bad. The rooms were clean and a nice size, 95% of the staff were very nice and accommodating. However, the difference between a VIP guests and others is no apparent that it doesn't make you want to go back. The buffet food was terrible!! Their shuttle system, which is supposed to transport guests between hotels in ineffective. […] Their wi-fi service is not as accessible as it should be and the shows and activities are kind of throw together, leaving you expecting more.

They are a little slow but if you stay on them they respond. They seen to be a little prejudice against thier own people. The staff drive around in those golf carts a little bit reckless. I would stay there again it's a lovely hotel.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Got the run around to get reservations for dinner always booked , and shuttle service around resort is very bad.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The ambiance was great but the food was less to be desired, which sucked because your limited to what the resort had to offer.

Had a great time. Everyone is very pleasant and the food is great. There Sunday show is great. I would highly recommend it!

This is my six time in Dominican Republic and by far the best hotel I have stayed in.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

if you don't speak spanish good luck, if your not VIP then your not treated equally, food was not very good, room service not to well they made the beds but did not stock the fridge back up with waters or any other beverages nor did they leave clean towels when taking the dirty ones, front desk was not helpful at all, they reset our doors so our room […] keys did not work, to eat in there restaurants you need reservations which can only be made between 9-11, there alcohol was unknown name brands and watered down, we did go on excursions we booked outside the hotel which were awesome Read more

There were several things that I was a little bet disappointing: 1. We report that there was a bad smell and someone came and sprayed with an arosel and the smell was still, nothing done after that 2. We report the phone wasn't working 4x's and no did anything about it 3. And lastly we had to take showers with cold water, that hot water will run in […] the morning but in the evening it was very luke warm. 4. I was a little disappointed that the cafetria area in the pearl was poorly kept clean. For example the dessert area and salad area wasn't kept clean. There was a bad smell around the ice cream and dessert area no one swept, map or cleaned the counter taps Read more

Wonderful place....would go back again...just one thing that I did not like...the water in the beach...it was dirty!!!

Genuine Expedia guest review

I traveled from 5/7-5/13/12. There were only a few issues that we encountered: 1. I purchased the Crown Resident Suites, but received the Cofresi Hotel room. I asked the front office and I was told to ask the VIP people. Since I was busy thoughout the day, I never took the time to ask why my room was switched. I guess that's on me. 2. From Monday to […] Friday morning, the hotel was great. Once Friday afternoon came around, I believe all the locals decided to stop by. It was extremelly loud and crowded. In addition, there was a concert on Saturday night. The music and fireworks didn't stop until 2am. Maybe I can attribute the amount of people to the concert, I don't know. So if you are looking for peace and quiet on the weekend, you may not want to go to this hotel. 3. I was not too impressed with the beach. I have to say that Punta Cana was better in that sense. The positives: 1. Grounds were kept clean at all time. 2. Food on the Buffet, Indian (amaizing cake!#, and Thai/Chinese. Skip the Italian one #food was horrible). 3. The servers were great and very friendly. Overall a pretty ok stay. Read more

Room had ants; TV didn't work half of the trip; electricity kept going out repeatedly; housekeeping did not change sheets; we had to constantly ask for towels; no peepholes on doors (which by the way led directly outside!). Oh, and here's the best part: The cable went out BECAUSE LIFESTYLES RESORTS DID NOT PAY THEIR DIRECT TV BILL. We learned this when […] a "Please pay your Direct TV bill" message came on the TV screen. Read more

Hotel was nice but absolutely NO customer service. We booked and payed for 3 hotel rooms through Hotels.com one month before our departure. When we arrived we stood in the lobby for 3 1/2 hours before they made us pay an ADDITIONAL $40.00 U.S. per person per night on top of what we payed Hotels.com. They where claiming everyone in our party needed a […] passport to check in. We all had government I.D's which where valid and is stated in the website. This is not stated anywhere on the website...... What a waste of breath... We had to pay or leave. They even called security on us because we where right and would'nt shut up about paying the additional monies. I had to pay $ 400 extra to stay. If its customer service and satisfaction is what you are looking for THIS IS NOT THE PLACE... Read more

traveling with a group, all reservations were screwed-up even dinner reservations (required by hotel rules) were screwed-up. desk manager was rude and condescending, really not wanting to fix the problems. will not ever stay in a lifestyle resort again

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Our stay at the Lifestyle Crown Residences began the first night with a drenching rain storm. It was a bit of bad timing as it happen to be the welcoming night of the Gala. The brave travelers, us included, tracked on to the crowded food tent and the celebration went on with awesome entertainment and spectacular fireworks. Food was plentiful as the […] menu provided a variety of offerings that should please the majority of appetites. The most delightful element of the event was the staff who kept spirits up with flowing drinks and ready smiles that conveyed their main desire was for their guests to have a good time. The rain continued off and on for the reminder of the week but the spirit of the staff did not waiver. From the desk clerk to house keeping anything you needed night or day was only a call away. Food servers and bartenders became your friends and even the timeshare salesman really will take no for an answer and remain pleasant throughout your stay. The spa was awesome and again I felt very appreciated and welcome. The grounds was beautiful and well maintained as were the rooms. One caveat to mention was my mattress was too firm for my taste however my sister's room had a much softer mattress so I can't be sure how the overall resort rated on bedding. The resort was very overall very relaxing, the entertainment outstanding, and best of all we had a wonderful time. The best compliment to this resort that I can give on this review is that I will be a return vistor for many years to come. Read more

Our three nights at Lifestyle Residence Suites was excellent. We found the resort to be beautiful, with outstanding accomodations, food, drinks, and entertainment. We booked a full day "Safari" tour to small villages in the the countryside. It was well worth the money we paid for the excursion. At the resort, we were approached by sales people to hear […] a sales presentation. We told them we were not interested or busy and they simply left us alone. I had no problem with them only trying to do their job. In conclusion, Lifestyle Residence Suites was well worth the money we paid for the three nights. Read more

Great location, not the most beautiful beach (no white sands as Punta Cana) but you can walk for kilometers with a quiet ocean and nice view.

Best Hotel in Puerto Plata for the Price, to get a hotel room in Puerto Plata with that quality and service you will probably paid 80% to 100% more.

terrible ordeal with hidden charges i booked the reservation thru expedia and when i got to the resort i was told i had to pay an additional $100 per night because some people on the reservation were not U.S. citizens. so if youre going to travel to this resort and are not a U.S. citizen be prepared to pay extra fees that expedia does not inform you […] of when you make the reservation.

This is my second time in Lifestyle, we went the firts time to the Tropical now we go to the Crown Suites. There are many hotels in Puerto Plata, but this is one of the best hotel. They have very large rooms, with nice views. The Hotel is located in the Cofresi area. Book by Expedia and you can acces VIP Beach. The only problem is that the VIP Beach […] is always full and you can not enjoy relaxing in this area, we have to go the other side of the beach. They need to put more places to eat the buffet since casablanca is always full. The stay was very good. Read more

I loved this resort, This resort is a huge property from basic rooms to villas. The VIP beach was beautiful and i could have spent everyday relaxing there.

I joint the other people that say,if you are not VIP you get less attention,and the only thing i was very disapointed is that they use the pictures to decribed the standard rooms from the VIP o presidential suites to advertised the regular suites (totaly different in prerson),not what you see in the interner!.

This hotel is fabulous, great room. The Food is good, especially the breakfast buffet. Hotel very clean and good entertaiment. Nice VIP Beach and good service, I will recomend to anyone how want to save money on vacation.

I really enjoyed my stay in LifeStyle. Excellent for the price! I'm very picky and this was a great place! Clean grounds and beautiful landscaping. Restaurants and food were ok...not the best, but ok. Our room, pools and beach were beautiful. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I would definitely return again! A & A ~ Orlando Fl.
