Laguna Mar

Frommer's Review

This massive resort has the most extensive and impressive facilities on the island. From the wave pool to the water-slide pool to the private watersports lagoon, the installations here make it a great choice for families with children and anyone looking for constant activity. The rooms are spacious and cool, with plenty of light. Some rooms have private balconies, and the best of the lot have ocean views and balconies. All the bathrooms come with bidets, although some are quite cramped. The hotel is located on a long stretch of beautiful beach, which can get a bit rough at times. Free jitneys circulate constantly to take you around the extensive grounds. With a steady flow of European all-inclusive travelers, Laguna Mar's bars, dance club, and casino stay fairly lively. Most of the meals are served buffet-style. Reserve early if you want to eat at one of the a la carte restaurants. The resort sells a mix of all-inclusive packages and timeshares, and you can often get great deals, either through travel agencies or directly via Internet bookings.
