Reviews
OBS - a very good option

We stayed at the OBS August 2026 for two weeks travelling from the UK. I have left it a few weeks since returning to write our review as I wanted it to be considered.
Overall we had a wonderful holiday. Our family ranged from age 75 to 9 and there was something for everyone.
We enjoyed the pool, beach and thought the rooms were well equipped. We stayed in block 4 which we found an ideal location to access everything in the resort. The white party was fun, we also enjoyed the excursions available.
The only downsides we had was the check-in and check out. The checkin the process was long winded and took far more time than it needed (especially after 18 hours of travelling!) The check out was extremely disappointing, people were checking in which took a long time and check out took seconds. In our opinion there should be two queues and the priority should be those checking out at 12 noon! The reception staff I felt when this was raised were quite rude and prioritised Spanish speaking guest in our experience and let them jump the line! This was sadly our last impression of the hotel.
On some occasions in the buffet restaurants it was difficult to find staff to request drinks, mainly in the evenings. However, we were looked after very well by some waiters, our special thanks go to Carlos and Victor who went out of their way to make us feel at home.
Also thanks to Kelvin in the gym!
Upon reflection the positives out way the negatives and although a long way to travel we would definitely consider the OBS again the future if we are to come back to the DR.

I enjoyed my stay there, front desk staff are helpful,

Good location, most of the staff are friendly and helpful, walk past you and do not even speak to you, buffet staff very friendly, clean the tables to fast though, includes what you left there to come back to. Clean rooms except my TV, totally filthy, extremely comfortable beds,16 inches deep that plug in to the outlet, now running the TV is a challenge. A wagon drives around to give you a ride any where in the complex he drives. Good selection of restaurants and a great coffee shop with all kinds of goodies in there . The buffet is loaded with every kind of food you want .
