Hotel di El Cortecito

The hotel is big and super nice The beach was not top I understood that the period was not the best one. In term of foods super nice especially the idea of having dinner à la carte. That changes front thé buffet The animation team is cool and you can not get bored Highly recommend for couples or family

Me gustó mucho fue un viaje aje familiar y la pasamos muy bien, luego volví con más familiares al mismo hotel

Me gustó mucho el hotel, la habitación cómoda, limpia, el desayuno bien preparado y una vista bonita. La atención de la persona de recepción, un venezolano supremamente amable, interesado por atender todos los requerimientos, hace muy buenas recomendaciones de lugares para visitar, comer. De verdad él hace de la atención de este hotel una gran estadía. Por alojarte en este hotel tienes derecho a acceder al hotel de playa que está a unas pocas cuadras e incluso te llevan en auto al lugar. En el hotel de playa la vista al mar es hermosa, Angela y el chico cubano, perdón que no recuerdo el nombre, me atendieron increíble, preparan unos cocteles deliciosos, la pizza también es muy rica aquí. Todo fue increíble las personas que sirven el desayuno también fueron muy amables. El comedor es pequeño pero acogedor, tiene un estilo tipo vintage muy lindo.

Wonderful place to stay. Beautiful grounds, awesome staff, good food, great pools and beach and very clean. Loved it and would definitely recommend.

The hotel was very nice, the drinks were delicious, people were very friendly (workers and other guests), and the pool and he ah were fun with lots of different activities to do everyday. The night life is also great. Epically Looky looky aye aye aye, the prince of chocolate, juaninamillion, two Carlos’s from the pool, Kendall, and Angel were all wonderful people who went out of our way to make sure we had a great time and were very welcoming. They made us feel like we have know each other years.

Soweit alles okay, schöne Pool Anlage, Gym auch OK. TV und WiFi katastrophal. TV Problematic mit dem Internet, sehr nervig weil viel zu langsames Internet, eine Nacht sogar total Ausfall. Aufpassen bei Extras. Zum Beispiel late check out bis 15 Uhr kostet 25 US$ plus 18 % Steuern plus 10 % Service Charge, Wahnsinn???? Und, Achtung bei der irreführenden Buchung. Weil, Gardenview rooms sind in Wirklichkeit zur Seite der Straße - also kein Garten vorhanden. Nur Zimmer zur Pool Site sind mit Garten etc.. Preise im Restaurant sehr sehr hoch wegen den zusätzlichen Steuern und Gebühren.

Всё очень понравилось. Очень рада что выбрала этот отель. Вкусная и разнообразная еда. Приветливый персонал, и всё обслуживание на высшем уровне. В комнатах и на территории очень чисто. Не хотим уезжать🥲

My wife and I stayed at this all inclusive resort for 4 days in late December 2022. On the positive side, the rooms were spacious and clean and the AC worked and the hotel was not too expensive. I guess you get what you pay for. On the negative side: - If you stay at the ”Royal” Hotel--which is the adults only part, and you are driving yourself, there are NO SIGNS indicating where that entrance is relative to the ”main entrance”...so we stupidly waited to check in for 20 minutes only to be told we were in the wrong lobby (which meant getting our bags back into the car and driving to the unmarked separate entrance). We should have known at this point that things would be less easy than we expected. - Their restaurant reservation system is totally screwed up (you actually have to QR scan each restaurant —they have 5— to make your own reservation—so if one is full then you go to the next and if that one is full you go to the next—totally crazy. There is no central restaurant reservation system. - Food is all you can eat but you would not want to. The sushi at the Asian restaurant was 95% rice and 5% fish. The fish offerings are mostly fried not grilled. The vegetables are miserly. Some restaurants simply do not offer a salad or vegetables. At the beach restaurant we ordered Nachos and guacamole and received a bowl full of nachos and one spoonful of guacamole! Water is served in small individual bottles which is so bad for the environment - We humored someone and let them pitch us their “exclusive travelclub”; big mistake, big waste of time, don’t fall for it - No one tells you that there is a check out procedure that is meant to ensure that you did not steal any of their beach towels……so I guess this is the kind of hotel/chain that attracts people who like to walk away with hotel towels….draw your own conclusions. - The staff are friendly but completely un-able to make any decision on their own or that might somehow deviate from their “procedures” (allowing you to sit at a table in a “closed off” area of a restaurant, redeeming your massage vouchers, expediting your check out, etc.

The resort itself was beautiful but there were pros and cons. More cons than I wanted. Pool closed at 6 pm so no night swimming which left little to do in the evenings. Drinks were weak, drank all day long with no effect. Food was the worst. The buffet was terrible and was really our only option since the snack bar ran out of burgers, basically lived on chips and salsa the entire trip. The restaurants which you needed to make reservations for was a joke. The reservation app didn’t work so you had to wake am up at 6 am to stand in line until 8 am in hopes of getting a reservation. The service was not pleasant. Workers badly made eye contact with you and you always felt like you were bothering them when requesting a beverage or asking a question. The resort has potential if they stopped it up on service, food, drinks and entertainment.

Ocean Blue is a medium size resort. Not small. Not huge like Iberostar. However it has lots of fine dining (5) onsite just like the huge ones. Their beach is perfect with lots of free cabana like shaded seating. Only surprise was our scuba shop was onsite but actual dive boat was 2 resorts down the beach at Iberostar. A 10 minute walk, no problem. This side of island a bit choppy for diving. Smoother on South side. Resort super clean, safe and friendly staff. More young families and older couples. No Spring Break teens! Highly recommend this resort for families.
