I had an amazing time at the resort and loved the energetic entertainment team. While the food options were great and the atmosphere was lively, the restaurant sizes can lead to long waits, especially during busy times. The kids club was fantastic, and my children had a lot of fun! However, I was quite disappointed with the additional charges for special events, which felt unnecessary considering the all-inclusive nature.

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Dreams Sands. The view from the rooms was stunning, with both sunset and ocean vistas. The service was outstanding, especially from Eduardo on the beach, who went above and beyond for our comfort. However, the elevators were quite slow, and the drinks at the beach could be brought more quickly. Overall, it was a fantastic experience with just a few minor drawbacks.

We had a splendid time at this all-inclusive resort! The staff was genuinely delightful, making our stay very enjoyable. The pools and beach were on point, but some areas of the hotel could use a little updating. Dining was varied, but there were a few misses, especially with some seafood dishes. Overall, it felt like an excellent value for what we paid, especially with all the amenities on hand.
