The hotel has a selection of bars including a night club perfect for the partying guests, a sports bar open 24 hours and a swim up pool bar serving drinks and snacks throughout the day. The hotel has two main restaurants serving a range of international cuisine and themed buffets several times each week. The refurbishment brought recent additions to the resort in the form of three a la carte restaurants serving luxurious Italian, Asian and Steakhouse food.

Children aged 4 to 12 years are taken care of in the two kids clubs, a playground and a kids only pool.
Evenings are kept busy with a range of live entertainment in the many hotel bars, the nightclub or even free entry into the casino a matter of metres away on Caribbean Street.
For those wanting a little pampering, the hotel has a spa with a sauna, whirlpool bath and a range of treatments and massages.
The Riu Bambu has two main pools which have both been modified and improved thanks to the recent renovation, one of which is now equipped with in pool sun loungers! One pool has a swim up pool bar and both pools are surrounded by sun loungers which come with fresh towels and umbrellas.

RIU Palace Punta Cana Hotel Reviews

“The hotel is in very good condition, well maintained from the gardens up to the rooms and cleaning. Everything was clean. The guests were mixed, from young couples to retirees of all nations. Our room was near the beach. The hotel is 24 hours all inclusive – no exceptions. Food and drinks are always plentiful, if you should get hungry at night (which I very much doubt), there are snacks in the Sports Bar or the room service.”

We had stayed in Cabarete before and wanted to come back but without the all inclusive this time and had a very active holiday. Can’t say enough about the friendly staff at Villa Taina. When we stayed there was a lot of Scandinavians and Americans and no Brits – suits us!”

Sosua Bay Hotel, Sosua Reviews

“Wonderful location. We are beach lovers so we took the free bus to Cabarete to the sister hotel, Azzurro Club Cabarete quite a few days. Entertainment team was good. Food was fine – we found plenty to eat without getting bored. Didn’t go to the Italian restaurant as minimum age for kids is 5 and we have a 3 year old. Best excursion was whale watching in Samana, a long drive but unforgettable to see the whales.”

“Thanks for a great holiday in Sosua. We hardly left the complex! Great views and photos from the hotel though might not be suitable for the infirm.”

“Kids loved it and were so excited although us parents think it only just scrapes through as a four star. I think we will be coming back though. The kids club was great – professional and the setting is delightful. I love the Dom Rep North scenery – so green with the lovely mountain backdrop and a great beach at Sosua and also Cabarete where the kite surfing goes on”

“We had a great holiday at The Casa Marina Reef. The animation team are certainly very animating. A lovely bunch of people. Going out into Sosua was nice once you get over the culture shock and the best excursions not to miss are monster trucks and whale watching if you there at the right time of year. Rooms are basic but only for sleeping in so no problem.”

FirstChoice.co.uk – The Tangerine in Cabarete is exclusive to First Choice in the UK. That said it can always be worth a look at sister company, Thomson who sometimes help to sell the hotel.

Rooms at the Viva Tangerine Hotel are comfortable and brightly furnished and set over three floors. Rooms have either one king sized bed or two queen sized beds, air conditioning, TV, full bathroom and balcony or terrace.

Viva Tangerine Hotel Reviews

We love Cabarete, it’s such a cool resort and we love the way you can get out and about unlike some of the gated resorts where you get the impression people only get to come out with reps on organised excursions. Viva Tangerine was a well run hotel which we enjoyed for a week. Pool area and beach are great. Food OK and drinks service fast. Might get a bit bored for a fortnight stay as it is a smaller hotel compared to many all inclusive hotels in Dom Rep
