Guest Score 7 out of 10
Good
The room and overall the facilities were clean, well-kept and modern
The food was decent
Beach loungers that had an umbrella were fully reserved by other guests as early as 7AM- some even left their towels on overnight in spite of signs forbidding this. As a result, you could not find a place on the beach in the shade even though the beach was 60% empty for most of the day. When we approached the consierge to flag the issue, he claimed there is nothing the hotel could do about it.
Overall the services and general attitude of the employees (especially the restaurant staff) could be improved.

Very Good
We stayed at Ocean Blue & Sands in Bávaro, Dominican Republic from Saturday, April 11th through Saturday, April 18th, in room 6115. Overall, our experience was good, and the resort itself is beautiful, very clean, and offers plenty of daily and nightly entertainment. Many staff members were friendly and truly made a positive impact on our stay. Things finally turned around on Wednesday, April 15th, when we met Chef Eligio. From that moment on, he went above and beyond to ensure my wife had safe and enjoyable meals. His care and professionalism made a huge difference, and we are very grateful for him.
There were also several standout team members who contributed positively to our stay:
Emely at the Front Desk
Bejasmin at the Coffee Shop
Manuel (blue guayabera) at Carey y Tortuga Buffet and Blue Moon Restaurant
Osvaldo in Housekeeping
Luis (night busboy) at Carey y Tortuga Buffet
Amable the Butler
The entire entertainment team
Because of these individuals, we were close to rating this stay a 10/10—especially since the last three days were much better.
However, our experience was significantly affected by my wife’s food allergies (corn, gluten, onion, garlic, and dairy). For the first five days, it was extremely challenging to find safe meal options. Unfortunately, most servers and cooks did not seem knowledgeable about ingredients or show much concern when we asked for help. At one point, a hostess at Villa Marina even suggested that I “Google the ingredients,” which was disappointing and not what you expect at a resort of this level. Unfortunately, our final experience dropped the rating back down. On Friday night, I spoke in Spanish with Javier at the front desk and clearly requested a 7:00 AM pickup from our room, as our transportation was arriving at 7:15 AM. Instead, the request was incorrectly logged for 7:15 AM. As a result, no one arrived, and we had to walk over half a mile on cobblestone paths with all our luggage to avoid missing our flight. It was a stressful and frustrating way to end our trip—especially knowing there was no language barrier, as Spanish is my native language.
Final Thoughts & Recommendation:
Ocean Blue & Sands is a beautiful and well-maintained resort with many amazing employees who truly care. However, there is a clear need for better systems and training—especially regarding food allergies and guest logistics.
I strongly recommend:
Assigning a trained staff member or liaison for guests with food allergies
Ensuring each restaurant has a knowledgeable chef available at all times to discuss ingredients
Improving communication accuracy for important guest requests like transportation
With these improvements, this resort could easily deliver a consistent 10/10 experience.

Disappointing
- Room was clean.
- Butler service was top
- Food is really not good (only buffet breakfast is ok).
Managers at night restaurant are quite insistant because they asked you to put 5 stars even though you didn’t finish eating. Didn’t like this attitude.
Got sick at the end of my stay.
- Check in is a bit disorganized (they made a mistake on our room, forgot to give us beach towels and didn’t explain everything available at the resort).
- Long chairs at the beach or swimming pool are a nightmare, everything is reserved at 5am even though there are signs no to do it. It killed the experience. Some hairs in the swimming pool.

Beautiful resort (I took very long walks and I think Ocean Blue & Sand has the best beach), everyone we spoke with was very friendly and helpful, and they had lots of food options for my picky teenager. The entertainment at night was more than we were expecting, the Michael Jackson show was great! Our butler Ismael was so helpful & friendly, and got us all the reservations we wanted. He made our stay extra special!
Breakfast service at Privilege took a long time to get a waiter's attention. Also, there aren't enough cabanas, and those are all somehow reserved by people in the middle of the night -- if you wait til 8am you will be too late to get one for the day.

Clean, friendly cats, great pools, lovely beach, good food, great restraunts, friendly workers.
Time share salesmen set up purposely to intervene when you are going for breakfast. Its a time share set up between the hotel and the company. It made us hate going for breakfast.
Also when being picked up, our driver had to pay the guard $10. Why is my pick up paying the guard???

Property itself is huge, you could walk there like in the park, and it’s well maintained and clean.
You can see that property is a bit old, but wasn’t problem for as at all.

I like the layout of the resort and the accessibility to the beach there’s always buggies coming around so if you don’t wanna walk they can pick you up and take you. Staff was super friendly and sweet. I come to this resort frequently and it is always a pleasant experience.
Everything was great.

The resort is great, the facilities are very nice and the food is delicious. The staff is also very friendly and helpful
The ocean nearby was very murky with lots of seaweed. Outside of the resort the neighborhood is dangerous, especially at night. But the resort itself is guarded and safe
