"Good value, but not 5 star."
Very good value. Although the appearance of hotel was impressive, some of features showed wear and tear. AC in my room was frigid. They came three times to fix it...but never did get it fixed. Had to turn of AC so I didn't freeze. Food was pretty good. Service and staff were very good.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Couples Retreat"
I enjoyed the hotel...this was my second time staying...the first time we stayed it was awesome everything was great this time however our room smelled of mildew and mold and we were by the ocean which made our room feel drab and damp when we opened the door...the room had kind of a musty smell and the bed was uncomfortable to me that I had a difficult […] time sleeping...the grounds itself were beautiful and the staff was always professional and attentive to our needs...I like the hotel and would go back but would lie a room in the 8000bldg like my first trip...

"Nice for a short vacation"
The hotel pool and rooms were good but we didn't like the foodGenuine Expedia guest review
I spent 6 days there on 4 different reservations. Originally I was very dissatisfied because of the people at the reception area. They were uncooperative and kept quotin rules that I did not know even existed. As the week went on, the service improved. The restaurants were excellent, especially the Brazilian one. The staff there is excellent. The pool […] is also amazing. I would return if I ever decide to return to D.R. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"a corner in paradise."
this Hotel is small but very nice and pleasant the staff is fantastic. I will come back soon.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Just O.K."
The hotel looks good, the staff is awesome , the food not so much. We stayed there for 1 week, and went to the buffet every morning for breakfast, but we only dine there twice. They mention they have 3 other restaurants avaliable , but only 1 opens every day. You must be at the front desk before 9 if you want to get a spot. If you get there at 10, you […] wont find no more space. I think they should open the 3 restaurants plus the buffet every day. The food at the cafeteria isnt good at all. I was very dissapointed about the food. Everything else is good. What we did, we went l for dinner to different local places. We found good food and the prices werent bad at all. But, what is the point of paying for all inclusive if you have to get out of the hotel to eat everyday???. I know for next time. The pool and the entertainment is very good, the beach is pretty. The food BAD! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Worst service ever!"
The liquor is nasty. The service at dinner is the worst! This hotel was NOT worth my money.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Better than expected!"
Good hotel for the money. There are small things they need to work on, replacing towels is by far an area they need to improve. If you remove towels they should be replaced with out calling housekeeping. Many reviewers commented on the food. No problem with the food in the buffet. The Brazilian resturant was very good and easy to get reservations when […] ever you wanted. Pool and beach are very nice. My party of ten had a good time and enjoyed the resort. We did take advantage of the upgrade to one of the newer buildings which I believe made a big difference. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Stinky Pillows but Nice Buffet"
Everyone expects tips here. Bring around $50 in dollar bills just for tips. The pillows in the hotel were not very comfortable, even though the pillow cases were changed daily, the actual pillow stunk because they never washed them. We had to cover them with a towel to sleep on them. Might be a good idea to bring a small pillow of your own. The buffet […] restaurant was very good, the banana smoothies that were served only for breakfasts were delicious. The beach was kind of dirty with sea weed and it was kind of annoying when local ladies would walk around the beach and pressure you to have them braid your hair for a charge of course, while you are trying to relax. It was an overall relaxing trip. If you decide to do something outside hotel activities, I would recommend going to the Paradise Island even though it is a bit more expensive, but you can get a good deal if you bargain with the guys that walk around and sell the events on the beach. If you are looking for a place where you can walk around outside of the hotel premises, do not look here. It is safest to stay inside the hotel premises unless on a tour or activity with a larger group. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

It was ok. I did not like the food , the hotel was great nice staff. I wanted to feel the Dominican culture but it felt like any other hotel.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Somewhat Disappointed"
This was our second stay at the hotel - within less than a 45-day period. My fiance' and I spent three wonderful nights at the resort in May (2012). During our most recent visit however, we were disappointed with the quality and variety of food dishes and the long lines that we encountered. We were on our honeymoon and expected a better (or at least […] similar) experience as our first visit. However, we were sadly disappointed. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Puerto Plata-Be Live Grand Marien"
The food was just nasty, they close the pool after it gets dark, they close the beach area after dark- {no relaxing looking at the stars & listening too the ocean waves} The shops are more exspensive than beverly hills name brand stores {65.00 dollars for a pair of flip flops} I mean really.} And - DO NOT - change your money, almost everything starts […] at 2500 pesos. And it will cost you 10.00dollars just too get out of the airport into the country. Even with all Inclusive package. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"OK at best"
The hotel room had a constant sour smell to it. We requested towels often and found it difficult to get them. Water was only allowed two bottles at a time. The drinks we bottom shelf at best. Free lance sales people contantly approached us while we relaxed on the beach. The interuption was not relaxing to say the least. Pool was clean but only open […] 8 to 7 which did not seem long enough. The beach was not very clean either. Food was just OK. Meat was very low grade and not to our liking.

"Trip was OK."
The hotel is landscaped really nice- which is a given since Hilton once owned it, however, majority of the staff did not speak english. I think when going to a resort that is 3+ stars, the staff for the most part should know how to communicate. I couldn't even get them to answer if the milk was safe for my 14 month old son...Or where I can buy some […] from. I wasn't able to get the bartender to make me a coffee liquor based frozen drink when they had Khalua. Another thing that bothered us is the staff refused to call our transportation company based right in Puerto Plata to figure out our pick up time. Their response was, go to the market, they are there. If not, buy a calling card and call them! How rude! Also, the food is HORRIBLE. Absolutely disgusting. The only thing that was up to par was the french fries at the beach snack bar. On another note, the spa treatment there is amazing! The manager/receptionist there was so helpful. He was able to order us milk and help us with anything that we needed! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"It was not a four star i give it a 3"
The the personal that cleans the rooms did a very poor job.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Nice Beach, no entertainment!"
The food was mediocre, the entertainment was non existent, they had two animacion staff, they were boring. The hotel should invest in a real entertainment. There's nothing to do at night. The food is pretty bland, but overall the beach is nice. I would not spend more than 5 days at this resort.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"BE LIVE GRAND MARIEN"
THE REASON BEHIND A 3 SCORE IS THE FOOD IS VERY VERY BAD.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"not impressed"
Didn't give us the room we paid for...the room we had smelled very musty.Genuine Expedia guest review
"I don't have any reason to visit this country again."
The Time share recruiter was very rude and insulting. I would never recommend any one to buy there. I went ther to relax instead I got insults.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Won't be going back"
Too many smokers and the non smoking areas very limited. One swimming pool with hardly any shaded seating and the only non smoking are the restaurants. If you like to stay in your room then it's great but to party it's not recommended.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Would probably not go back"
This hotel is definitely overrated. The a la carte restaurants did not open every night, and often times, they would stop taking reservations and you would end up having dinner at the buffet restaurant which was not great. The food at the snack bar was very bad. There were days when the cleaning staff would not show up to clean our room until very late […] in the afternoon. We came back from a full-day tour at 5pm and our room had just be cleaned and there were no towels. The cleaning lady showed up 1/2 hour later with the towels. The entertainment is very poor and it seems adequate for childre only. The only entertainment after 10pm was a sports bar, which looked more like a children's bar since children were allowed until midnight. Overall, you should stay away from this hotel if traveling with adults only since I think kids would be the only ones to enjoy a stay at this hotel. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Lovely Hotel - Poor Food"
The hotel itself was nice, lovely pool nice beach and nice rooms. The Entertainment in the day was very limited but the evening shows were brilliant, very professional, amazing dancing and the costumes and stage were fabulous. The main let down was the food, the three resaurants that you book separatly for were nice, the Gourmet the Mexican and Brizilian […] but the snack bar in the day and the main buffet restaurant in the evening the food was terrible, the choice was poor the food was cold and the quality was terrible, a massive let down, we just made sure we had a big breakfast! The Entertainment staff were great always friendly and happy even with the bad weather we had. The waiting staff - we had one lovely waitress and one nice waiter, no one else seemed to want to be there, usually we tip alot throughout the two weeks but hardly spent a Dollar this time.
