Sunscape resort is at best a 2.5 star resort. The facilities are outdated. The food was good. The service is really bad. The staff are arrogant and rude. They cater to white Europeans and white Americans. I myself am American. My husbands family is Dominican American. The check in process was long and they don’t explain how anything at the resort works. Nobody showed us where our rooms were located and there were no number signs on the buildings. The hostess at the Windows buffet Yorleni was rude. She wouldn’t allow my 10 year old son into the restaurant because she thought his shorts were wet. They were not wet. She argued with us causing a big scene. Her manager came out and allowed us in. There were other instances of unprofessional rude treatment that we received. My family spent 2 weeks in the Dominican. 4 days in Punta Cana, 2 days in Santo Domingo, a week in our private home in Santiago and 3 days in Puerto Plata. At the other hotels an resorts the service was amazing and professional. Needless to say I will never stay at Sunscape Puerto Plata or any affiliated resorts.

Horrible checkout process! They accused us of lying and stealing 2 pool towels. As if anyone would dare take overused and unclean towels. The receptionist Maria stated that we were in the wrong. “The towel personnel has been there for years and therefore we need to be more cautious when visiting resorts”. EXCUSE ME, but I come from the culture of the customer is always right. We gave back their 6 old towels and were told we only needed 3 towels cards in return... leading us to believe that it was 2 towels per card. The only liar in this ridiculous story is the towel guy. Who was way too busy having lunch to bother counting the towels. Needless to say that the sour treatment in the end is the one that counts the most. I’ll be sure to never come back and never recommend this resort.

Dear Guest, We are more than happy for being elected by you to spend your deserved holidays. Firstly, we want to thank you for your positive lines; but it makes us worry to see that the most of your review is negative as this is not our intention. Concerning the service, we are in shock by reading how you perceive our staff, as we are known for the excellent service we provide with or without tip. Our manager has read this and all your review and will take corrections.
