Palmera Beach resort is new and a really great place. We had a roof top apartment. The apartment was very clean except the jaccusi wich was not clan and contain a lot of sand. There was also very low water pressure in the showers.
There is continusles bus transport to the beach (5 min walk), and the beach is super nice, and also the restaurant and bar. The best beach I have been to in DR.
Some of the employer are slow to fiks ting, and the daily cleaning is not impressive.

Check in was horrific they tried to say we didn't pay ahead of time and then tried to make us book directly thru them, so they can charge us an additional $75 for the stay. I still rebooked on hotels.com causing them to be annoyed and move super slow to check us in. They then told us that we needed to pay an additional $75 for electricity. I told them we got a message saying only thing due at property was $50 but they insisted and when I threatened to cancel everything and go to another hotel they accepted the $50.
Not one of the 5 days I was there did me or the other guest in my party have hot water to shower with. The water pressure was terrible. Taking a shower in sprinklers would've have been better. And everytime we left the penthouse (yes paid extra for the penthouse and got basic everything) when we would come back it would be a horrible sewer smell that the staff acknowledged but couldn't find a solution. Everytime u want to go anywhere you needed to be picked up by the golf cart that only came when you called the front desk (if they decided to answer) To get anywhere its a good 5-7 minute walk.. you will definitely be getting your steps in. Overall I will never stay here again and wouldn't suggest you do either.

Overall had a good time. The facility was nice and as pictured. The service and the other facilities were fine. Sometimes the service was quick and other times it took a while. Couldn’t get in contact with the property prior to arrival, had long waits at restaurants where we were the only guests, and couldn’t get our security deposit for the electricity back because they couldn’t contact the person with the key.

It was ok. Electricity went out every night for 6/7 times. Bathroom was filthy, dirty and old. The place is not that convenient. The best thing was rooftop. Overall we had a great time

I never write reviews, but I'll make an exception in this case.
Very briefly summed up:
The resort in general is in a very poor state and is literally falling apart (old). Everything from wardrobe doors being stuck, to safe not being available/functional, showers broken, no hot water and power outlets being loose and in such a condition where it's a fight to plug in anything (yes, I did use the correct adapter for this country).
The rooms are not clean. Towels were straight up dirty, in two rooms.
The service is poor, and if you plan to address your concerns, be prepared to spend more or less your entire stay waiting for the staff to most likely not fix the issues you are having.
The restaurant food is significantly overpriced compared to how poor the quality was. A shabby breakfast for $30 is daylight robbery. They lure you in with decently priced rooms, to severely overcharge you for the food they make at resort restaurants. The quality of the food is at best 2/6.
You would have to have a car and also be prepared to drive for 30 minutes or more to find options.
This place is a tourist trap and you would be wise to stay away.

The apartments need to be upgraded. The furniture and fixtures are in very poor condition. The communication was terrible if you do not speak Spanish. They only gave us 4 towels and no wash cloths to use for a 9 day stay. No one told us that we could schedule activities at the resort with the concierge so I did them myself via internet.

The room was dirty upon arrival, I called to have someone look into it and the housekeeping supervisor had an attitude and was rude. She showed me a different room that smelled like mold. So we decided to stay where we were and asked for clean sheets and towels which she did with an attitude. I was assigned some guy name Ramal for any questions or issues. Well he never responded to my messages when I asked about the safe. The property is nice and has potential but the staff is terrible. The only staff that was amazing were the cigar shop guys.

The property was a steal for the price. The staff was so friendly and accommodating ready to help us with anything we needed. The are was well kept with many art installations along the way to the beach which was nice to see. The apartments were incredibly spacious but needed some internal upgrades like the beds were very creaky just to sit on it. There was no hand soap available in any washrooms, the shower was broken in one of the washrooms. One of the bathroom’s ledge was broken so we couldn’t keep our stuff there either. I appreciate the laundry rack so we dried off our swimwear/clothes everyday as well as the terrace area that we could hang out at night. Overall could do better/upgrade basic amenities but it does not change the fact that we still enjoyed our stay and will consider coming back!

Truly amazing place.
The checkin process was very fast.
The accommodation is in excellent condition.
The staff was very helpful, they even gave us coffee from their own, because the coffee shop was closed at 7 AM.
Private back area with bar and restaurant.
Several other restaurants to choose from in the area.
Many thanks to all the staff!

The staff have all been very friendly and helpful.
However, we had to be moved to a different accommodation as a problem with the air conditioner meant there were pools of water on the floor and water running down the walls. The plaster was coming off as well.
We then moved to a new apartment that had an infestation of cockroaches and some mice droppings.

The water does not get hot often they have a box they say controls the temperature but its a hit and miss either one shower will get lukewarm and the other would be cold or they would both be cold i stayed 1 week and I think 3 times it may have been just right. Everything else was cool but honestly I don't play when it comes to Hot showers its a huge necessity for me!

When we checked in, one of the toilets was not flushing properly. The they said they would fix it the next day but then said they could not do it unless someone was in the room. When I said we had tours booked for all days of our stay, they eventually got to fixing the toilet. There were numerous other issues (broken water cooler, clogging of the other toilet), some of which were fixed and others were not addressed. They finally moved me to a new room when I complained about all the issues I was experiencing. They moved me into a new apartment the next day and it was all good until the main dining table (glass top) collapsed the following day leaving broken glass on the floor. My son stepped on the broken glass and was cut. Despite my reporting the issue, the broken table was not addressed promptly. Since I was checking out the next day, I did not make a big deal of it. All in all, the stay was "tolerable" and we slept ok, but with a lot of inconveniences. The availability of a kitchen was a plus and saved us a lot of money on the limited and expensive restaurant options.

A light bulb was not working.
The safe in the room was broken.
And the patio door was broken(could not be locked).
They fixed the door and sorted out the bulb situation.

This was our second time at Playa Palmera because we had such a good experience the first time back in June 2023. And the second stay did not disappoint, helpful, friendly staff that was aways available. Although, shopping, dining and the beach was close by, there was always a driver offering to give you a ride to where you were going. There was a feel good community vibe from the staff and guests. My wife and I look for to our next stay. Loved it! ❤️ 😍

My friends and I stayed here for a week during our spring break and it was amazing!! Super affordable and the staff were very friendly. We were traveling with a Spanish speaker so we didn’t have much difficulty, but the staff did have varying levels of English skills which is to be expected, and it wasn’t much of a problem all in all. Our apartment was clean, beautifully decorated, and well equipped, and there was a lovely pool right outside. Food wasn’t included but everything was incredibly affordable! The Florecita restaurant was super upscale and luxurious, and the other eateries had very good food as well.
The beach was really nice too! It can be pretty windy there but I’ve heard that’s not uncommon for the Dominican coast, and it wasn’t much of a bother. Overall you get what you pay for and more. We were really happy with our stay and would return. It’s not a luxury all-inclusive but it’s really amazing quality and value for the price.
One note: it’s relatively far from attractions and Bavaro beach is about a 20 minute drive. We had to call a couple of Ubers, so if you want to stay somewhere that’s really close to clubbing and activity this is not the place. We didn’t mind though.

The property was amazing. Stayed 10 nights and am planning on coming back as soon as i can! The beach bar was amazing jon and victor were awsome! The restaurant Flaurecitia was top notch and the service from hector and the other waitors was perfect. If you do come make sure to remember to brush up on spanish because english is not widely spoken here. Also some ammeneties are missing in rooms like face clothes. Hand towels so make sure to pack a few extra comforts if u want them ) very nice vacation here and highly recomend :)

I am not sure how this is considered a luxury property. I was so unimpressed with the service, the property and accommodations that left and got another hotel within an hour of arriving. I’ll never use orbit again, what I got, was nothing like what I was expecting.

The place is calm and clean. Nice for families with lots of restaurants and a supermarket. We stayed in an apartment facing a shared pool. The beach is less than a five minutes walk from the apartments.
They organise excursions as well.
It would be good to add some basketball/tennis courts for teenagers and adults.
