" Use the hotel provided transportation. "

" The buffet is the best option for eating. We also liked the pizza at the pool and beach bbq. Not a fan of the individual restaurants. "

" The only thing you have to take into account is that there are some mosquitoes so is very helpful to bring a repellent with you. "

" I’d avoid and be prepared to be harassed. "

" We asked for the orthopedic pillows and they were great. Everyone is super friendly. Highly recommend for families with kids. "

Oyster Hotel Review

What are the design and scene like at the hilton la romana, an all-inclusive adult resort, this sophisticated adults-only all-inclusive resort offers a peaceful beach getaway removed from punta cana crowds.

Formerly the Dreams La Romana, Hilton La Romana adults-only resort is an upscale property offering affordable all-inclusive rates. The Dreams property was a huge hotel with adults-only rooms, but when the hotel changed hands, the company decided to split the resort into an adults-only side and a family-friendly side. Renovations throughout 2019 took place at both the Hilton La Romana, An All-Inclusive Adult Resort, and its sister hotel next door, Hilton La Romana, an All-Inclusive Family Resort .

The renovations brought a chic, beachy style to all rooms and common areas, first noticeable in the lofty, open-air lobby. Cozy white sofas with throw pillows in earthy greens and blues sit around natural wood coffee tables, and hanging basket chairs overlook the Premium-level outdoor pool. On one side of the lobby is a 24-hour coffee shop for caffeinated drinks and pastries, while the lobby bar occupies the opposite side and has a few flat-screen TVs. A beach-inspired modern look continues into the upscale rooms and open-air restaurants. Guests are typically found at one of the two outdoor pools – the main ocean-view infinity pool with a bustling atmosphere and the Premium-level pool – both of which have a swim-up bar. The beach area isn’t as large as some in Punta Cana, but it’s calm and pretty.

The atmosphere here is largely relaxed and best suited to couples seeking a peaceful getaway, though nightly themed shows, a late-night disco, and casino provide some entertainment. Couples wanting to be closer to the Punta Cana airport should consider Sanctuary Cap Cana, while families may prefer the feature-packed Majestic Colonial Punta Cana all-inclusive resort.

Where Is the Hilton La Romana, An All-Inclusive Adult Resort Located in the Dominican Republic?

On bayahibe beach near la romana, a 50-minute drive from punta cana international airport in the dominican republic.

Despite its misleading name, Hilton La Romana adults-only resort isn’t actually located in La Romana , it’s in Bayahibe — a small town near La Romana. Bayahibe Beach is about a 50-minute drive from the Punta Cana International Airport, or about a 20-minute drive from La Romana International Airport. Located on the Dominican Republic’s southern, Caribbean coast, Bayahibe has calmer, clearer waters than Punta Cana or Puerto Plata, which are located on the island’s northern, Atlantic coast. This means Hilton La Romana’s beach isn’t plagued by seaweed like its northern neighbors. The only problem with Bayahibe’s fairly secluded location is that there isn’t much to do outside of the resort —unlike Punta Cana , which is built up with lots of shops, restaurants, and bars.

What Are Rooms Like at the Hilton La Romana, An All-Inclusive Adult Resort?

Spacious rooms are suites have attractive decor and modern amenities such as free minibars, flat-screen tvs, and furnished balconies or terraces with ocean, garden, or pool views. swim-out rooms are available..

Hilton La Romana adults-only resort rooms were completely renovated in 2019 with chic, modern decor. Divided among multiple low-rise buildings, all of the 356 rooms have tile floors, clean-lined wood furniture, and fun colorful accents in geometric headboards, patterned throw pillows, rugs, and large artwork pieces. Guest rooms have furnished balconies or terraces with either ocean, pool, or garden views, though ocean views are largely obstructed. Swim-out suites have direct access to a narrow shared pool.

Standard amenities consist of sitting areas, flat-screen TVs, individually controlled air-conditioning, free minibars stocked with beer, soda, water, and juice, coffee- and tea-making facilities, MP3 docking stations, and free Wi-Fi. Closets have electronic laptop-sized safes, ironing facilities, and umbrellas. Premium rooms have bathrobes and slippers, and they get access to exclusive areas. Bathrooms are well-sized and have rainfall showers, as well as free upmarket toiletries, hairdryers, and lighted magnifying mirrors.

On the downside, room walls are on the thin side, and noise from the late-night entertainment can be heard from some units.

What's the Beach Like at the Hilton La Romana, An All-Inclusive Adult Resort?

The beautiful white-sand bayahibe beach has calm water and tons of umbrella-shaded loungers, but it's not as wide or long as some beaches in punta cana..

The Hilton La Romana beach has soft white sand and clear blue water. The beach has an area for Premium-level guests, and there are tons of lounge chairs, umbrellas, and two beach bars. There’s also a wooden dock that extends out into the water that allows guests to access the coral reef that lines one side of the property.

A huge perk is that off to one side of the beach is a water-sports and tour excursion vendor, so guests can book activities such as snorkeling, island boat tours, and scuba diving. Island tours depart directly from the beach.

What Restaurants and Bars Are at the Hilton La Romana, An All-Inclusive Adult Resort?

All-inclusive rates cover meals at buffet and a la carte restaurants, top-shelf liquor at multiple bars, and 24-hour room service (except for delivery fee for non-premium guests)..

The Hilton La Romana adults-only resort side offers a good array of restaurants and bars covered by the all-inclusive package. All meals, international and domestic top-shelf liquor, and minibars are free. Room service food is free 24/7, but guests who aren’t staying in a Premium-level room will have to pay a $5 delivery fee. Food largely receives positive reviews.

The main buffet restaurant, Caoba, is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Hot and cold spreads feature local and international fare, and theme nights are offered. Mare Grill and Restaurant is the seafood eatery by the pool and beach, it’s open for dinner only and has a large al fresco terrace. Noor serves Mediterranean food, plus some international dishes, for dinner. It’s also open to Premium Club guests for breakfast and lunch. The fine-dining Sakura is a Pan-Asian eatery with standard dining and a few Teppanyaki tables. It’s open for dinner only and is the only restaurant that requires men to wear long pants and closed shoes.

Reservations aren’t required for any restaurants. Premium-level (formerly Preferred Club) guests also have access to a 24-hour lounge with hot food, snacks, a full bar, and lounge space.

There are also a 24-hour coffee shop serving hot and frozen drinks, pastries, and fruit, a lobby bar, swim-up pool bars, and beach bars.

What Features Are Available at the Hilton La Romana, An All-Inclusive Adult Resort?

Ocean-view infinity pool and premium club pool with swim-up bars, a full-service spa, gym, casino, disco, wedding packages, and nightly entertainment are all offered here..

In addition to the beach, Hilton La Romana has two well-sized outdoor pools with swim-up bars. The main pool is an ocean-view infinity pool behind the beach. In addition to a swim-up bar, it has several loungers, some umbrellas, and chic daybeds available for rent. Upbeat music is played during the day and occasionally fun activities take place here. The other pool is for Premium-level guests only (formerly called Preferred Club); this is a quieter pool without ocean views, but it offers ample loungers, daybeds, and a swim-up bar.

Some of the features are shared with the Hilton La Romana Family Resort , including the well-equipped fitness center, full-service spa, and large convention center. A casino and disco open late are also available to both resorts. The spa offers a variety of massages and wellness treatments. Fun nightly themed entertainment shows with dancing and singing are provided. Note that music can be heard from some rooms.

Because of its beautiful grounds and tranquil atmosphere, this hotel is a popular wedding destination. The hotel has multiple wedding venues, including a gazebo. Multiple wedding packages are available, as is an on-site wedding coordinator. It’s also a popular honeymoon destination, and there are several honeymoon deals available throughout the year.

Wi-Fi and parking are free for all guests.

Self-care, sunshine and culture in La Romana

With fresh seafood, medieval-style sites, stellar sunsets and some of the world’s best beaches, this Dominican Republic hotspot makes for a stress-free getaway in the tropics. | Alina Dizik | March 17, 2023

When it comes to planning the perfect Caribbean getaway, you really can please everyone on your list — you just need to know where to stay. Our recommendation? The charming town of La Romana on the Dominican Republic ’s southeast coast. With a unique mix of white-sand beaches, stunning landmarks, fresh local seafood and plenty of time for relaxation, it provides each visitor with their ideal vacation — no matter their age. Here are some of the best things to do in La Romana:

Explore: Visit nearby Altos de Chavon to experience local culture and catch a performance at the medieval-style amphitheater

Relax: Book a massage at the spa, enjoy a meal overlooking the Caribbean or take a fitness class

Get outdoors: Explore caves at a national park or ride the waves on Jet Skis

Find your bliss

Whether you’re seeking a relaxing romantic getaway , eager to make fun memories with friends or going on a family adventure, the key to experiencing the ultimate getaway is to find the right place to stay.

For a stress-free experience from arrival to departure, head to an all-inclusive resort . Located on the Dominican Republic’s lush Carribean coast, Hilton La Romana, an All-Inclusive Adult Only Resort offers everything from rejuvenating spa treatments (think hot stone and deep tissue massages) and pool-side cabanas to privately catered dinners without ever leaving the property. And with a private white-sand beach, you’ll want to set aside time to witness the island’s dreamy sunsets.

Traveling with kids ? Enjoy all the same perks but with additional kid-friendly amenities at the adjacent Hilton La Romana, an All-Inclusive Family Resort .

Take time to reconnect

Spending time with loved ones is easy at an all-inclusive resort. Sign up for a dance or fitness class, soak up some vitamin D on the private beach overlooking the turquoise water or simply lounge in your spacious suite (room service is included as part of your stay). Hilton La Romana’s all-inclusive resorts also have an extensive network of water activities — including infinity pools and a water park! — for everyone to enjoy.

Throughout the resorts there are gorgeous spaces to spend quality time with loved ones without feeling rushed. Choose from a wide range of restaurants (many have daily specials that take advantage of the Dominican Republic’s local ingredients), daily classes and activities, nightly entertainment and more. Whatever you choose to do each day, you’ll be able to focus on creating special moments rather than figuring out logistics.

Explore the area

Eager to spend the day sightseeing? Your resort concierge can help arrange rental cars, city tours and island excursions. Both properties are conveniently located within 20 minutes of La Romana’s stunning Altos de Chavon, a stone replica of a 16th century Mediterranean village that sits 300 feet (91 meters) above the area’s winding Chavon River. The area also includes a medieval amphitheater where you can see a show, an art gallery featuring local artists and an archeological museum. It’s the ideal destination for a taste of the local culture and history.

Kick back with the locals at nearby Bayahibe and Dominicus beaches or tap into your inner adventurer with a visit to Cotubanama National Park for snorkeling, hiking, cave exploration and freshwater springs.

Take in the action

With a mix of watersports, exercise classes and plenty of space for hanging out alfresco, making moves has never been easier. Snorkeling and diving excursions or playing one of the nearby golf courses are always popular picks. Kids in tow? The resort’s Kids and Teen clubs are the perfect place for young guests to make new friends while parents enjoy a restful respite without worry. Work with resort staff to create a specific itinerary to take the stress out of daily planning . Both properties also offer Premium Club rooms and suites that give you access to lounges, exclusive meals and other amenities (private plunge pool, anyone?).

Whether you want to kick your feet up and enjoy the resort amenities to their fullest as soon as you arrive in the Dominican Republic or prefer to explore the natural surroundings with thrilling excursions, a visit to La Romana will have you planning a return trip in no time.

When it's time to retire for the night, you'll find your accommodation outfitted with a balcony or terrace, a minibar refreshed daily and a flat-screen TV. Plus, the all-inclusive rates cover in-room Wi-Fi access, 24-hour room and concierge services and meals and drinks at nine restaurants and a coffee shop.
