We loved our stay here...the resort was stunning and not too far from the airport (20 minutes). We booked through Delta Vacations and were pleased with the whole process. Our room was in building 2 on the 6th floor...it offered an amazing panoramic view of the ocean and the sunrise. It was spacious, clean and comfortable.
The food was great (especially the buffet, Italian restaurant and the hibachi place) and the staff was warm/helpful. We visited the coffee cafe in the lobby a number of times and never waited more than a few minutes. We were able to secure reservations for the two restaurants where they were recommended ahead of our trip by contacting the concierge desk.
The pools were in great condition and the beach was kept well maintained. We also liked visiting the Castle pool where there was almost no one else! The other parts of the Castle (indoor water feature) and gym were also top notch.
Although we only walked through the shops and little restaurants at Sanctuary town...it was a fun little addition on the resort.
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and look forward to visiting again!

Simply an amazing experience from start to finish. Unmatched service, great food, spectacular views and outstanding rooms. Sanctuary is beautifully maintained and offers the perfect environment to relax. Despite the number of people at the resort, it never feels crowded, there are plenty of quiet spots to just sit and enjoy the amazing view and take advantage of the amenities. The staff could not be friendlier or more helpful.

Hotel was very nice but our service was excellent. From day one we had 3 members of the hotel taking care of us daily. Felix always had two beds ready for us on the beach. He always had an amazing attitude which made the interaction great. Juan Jose took care of our breakfasts and also the two times we ate at the Steak House. Alexander was our butler who was there for every need we had. The trip would have been great but because of these three it was amazing.

This place is amazing. The service is top notch. It's definitely more of a place for couples, than people on a girl's/guy's trip or looking for a party. You come here to relax and receive top-notch service from check in to check out. The party is outside of the resort, which is perfect for me I can go party and then come back here to relax and recover...lol. The food is fabulous. The drinks are good too, but not strong at all. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a chill vibe with 5 star service and NO KIDS.

My wife and I just came back from a 4 days vacation at this resort. The service is top level and the food is amazing. They go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. This is not a place for someone looking to party or have a wild time. Its mostly for couples or older folks looking to just relax. It is a quiet environment that aims to attract people who want to escape the fast world we live in. We had an assigned person dedicated to assist us in anything we needed (Alexander) and he was extremely nice and attentive. We met so many great people there: Eduardo an amazing guy who went above and beyond, Kelvin at the Blue Marlin restaurant always gave us top notch service, Esteban at the bar by the beach was excellent, Ariana by the Coffee stand was super nice but those are just the names I can remember. I have no complaints about anyone at all and would recommend it for someone looking to just reconnect. Dominica Republic may not have oil or diamonds but it is a rich country in beauty and the kindness of its people!
