Having just returned from the Dominican Republic where we stayed at the Hotel Grand Oasis Marien in Costa Dorada. My first impression of the hotel was fairly good. The rooms were spacious having two double beds, the bathroom was a little shabby not what you would expect of a 4 star hotel. We were plagued by mosquitos in our room... more

I have just returned from 2 weeks at the Oasis Marien and having read many reviews before we left i felt i needed to add my own upon return. I travelled with my partner and 2 teenage boys and had a wonderful time. We had a 20 min journey from the airport as quoted and booked in with ease at... more

Great entertainment with Chicky-Monkey and Coffee. We felt like we were part of the family from the first day. Our kids enjoyed every day and are asking if we can go back again. Beautiful pool area, great rooms, friendly staff and good drinks. The beach was not the cleanest but we enjoyed it. more

Deary me - What are people moaning about, there is nothing wrong with this place. I have noticed though that it tends to be us Brits that have enjoyed the holiday far more than our American counterparts - I think many of them need to spend 2 weeks in Spain, Turkey, Greece etc like I have many times in the... more

I have read many reviews on this destination and thus thought I should include my own, as we had a great time! Getting there - Passage through the airport was quick and easy with only a 20 minute bus ride to the G.O.M. No issue with people wanting to take our bags for us, as some report. The Grand Oasis... more

Resturants were good, although you... more

Do not take traveler cheques or Dominican pesos, as you will be lose out every time you change one due to their exchange rates(poor) and everything in is dollars anyway!!. Take dollars and rent a safe. Hotel>>>>> excellent, clean, people very friendly, great pool and... more

This is the best hotel on the north coast. No problem with getting a sun bed but you would have next door at the Ibrostar. The entertainment is something you would expect on a cruise it is so good the dancers are excellent the shows at night wonderful. Food here in the buffet is good but we eat most nights... more

We stayed here for our honeymoon and had a great time, the food was excellent and there was a wide variety to choose from. The entertainment do a fantastic job. The only gripe I had with our stay was that there was some sort of timeshare team within the complex and even though they were not over pushy, it started... more
