    I have been three. Times to this hotel. Twice in bungalow. I really enjoy the privacy for night cap or coffee in the morning. On the right side you have playa Bonita will all little cantina, bar, mosquito beach bar and restaurant. On left side a little cantina for sunset and beer. Fabulous place

    You did a fantastic job reviewing this hotel. I have been to Samana many times, i stayed twice at El Portillo
    and twice at Cayacoa and also have been to that beautiful beach in Cayo Leventado. The hotel has apparently been completely renovated and its expensive but just gorgeous. El Portillo has the most amazing beach and the sand is whiter i believe than this beach.

    Thanks for sharing this great video. We were there in April 2016 or 2017 (when it had just opened), so nice to see the property is just as nice and clean as back then. We are thinking of returning in April as we prefer Adults only resorts. Our first time there, the building you stayed in was not yet built . We too, prefer top floor - were you on the 3rd floor and what was your room number? Thanks again for sharing.

    You can walk past the breakwall on the right until Playa Escondida. From there you have to leave the beach for few minutes. After that you can walk till Las terrenas if you want :) Walked 3 hours straight in that direction.

      If you can't find what you want in the hotel you can take a taxi to Las Terenas, $40 USD and 15 minute drive and your driver will wait forever for you and you'll likely find what you want there and it will be about 2/3rds cheaper than at the hotel. Can't speak to the quality as everyone has different likes. My luggage showed up 1 day late so had to visit las terenas and came back with a boat load of stuff for $40USD. One T-Shirt at the hotel is $25 USD. Hope that helps. Paul

    Nice review! Well done sir. Im planning to go there to have some fun in April. How's the night activities in the hotel? Is discotech active?

    • @PTPhotoGearReviews
      @PTPhotoGearReviews  4 месяца назад +1

      There's lots of activities though out the day but I honestly never visited the disco at night so can't really comment. They had a Cir de sole show that was not to be missed and some other local entertainers come in which were nothing special but there was one gal that visited every other night with an amazing voice. What I noticed is that the level of activity corresponds to the crowd of people at any given time. Cheers!

    Can you tell me if this resort is wheelchair accessible and if the pool has walk in steps into it, thanks

    • @paulphillips5128
      @paulphillips5128 4 месяца назад +1

      So at timecode 2:10 of this video you can see the wheelchair ramp into the lobby and then basically from the lobby right down to the end of the pool is WCA but the hotel has no elevators that I ever saw so you would want to stay in a ground floor room or one of the bungalows. At timecode 4:54 you can see the front of the pool shelf which is about 6" deep and then there's two shallow steps that drop down from that and there are steps into the pool on both sides in between the little white sheet cabanas. Timecomde 5:41 has these slate walkways so a little more difficult for the WC bound to navigate. Hope that helps. Paul

      Bahia Grand El Portillia is just down the road from the Wyndam and it's a family hotel. Not quite as new but I heard it's nice as well. Cheers
