Sand was gorgeous and plentiful beach area. Tons of chairs and Cabanas. Pool area was sleek. Dinning was amazing with great options and fantastic food. Only thing that was a disappointment was the maid service. They didn't leave the room in a disaster or anything like that just that they would forget to fill out the mini bar little things like that so other than that really really good experience ##### Richard Andrew Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Victor Hugo Monterroso Aug 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The ##### Victor Hugo Monterroso Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melvin Andre Jul 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The service was nothing like I've experienced before, I felt like a king at the resort. There were plenty of activies at the resort. Plus, you can book events outside the resort and most provide transportation to and from the event.The rooms are very nice and modern with updated light and controls. I would recommend getting a room with a swimout pool becuase the pool close at 6 PM. With the swimout pool, you can hang in the pool any time. Im definitely going back! ##### Melvin Andre Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Robert Aug 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property is new an gorgeous but they were not prepared for the grant opening yet. They didn’t have enough staff and they offered a VIP club that when you try to order something from the breakfast they say they don’t have it. But something that I can give to the staff is that they were trying their best to accommodate us. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/947e5ce5-6076-4121-bba6-1c5a8dfd4bf9-1755090827413.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Robert Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Anuujin Jul 29, 2025 Liked: Amenities Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities I was very disappointed with this stay. The property is supposed to be new but every thing kept breaking down and I had to move rooms not 1 or 2 times, but 3 times! While they did assist when issues arose, there was too many issues and everything just took so long. We spent 3 hours at dinner every night and AC went out multiple times. They did provide me with spa services due to those issues but not worth it in my opinion. ##### Anuujin Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brian De Jul 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We recently went to Secrets Playa Esmeralda in the Dominican Republic to celebrate a my mothers 70th birthday. My entire family felt completely welcomed and taken care of once we entered the doors. This was our first time visiting the DR, and it turned into a trip we'll never forget. The resort is absolutely beautiful. Everything from the rooms being spotless with an amazing view. But the beach simply AMAZING! The water crystal clear, just peaceful and beautiful. What really made the experience so special was the staff. But there was one person who made it even more, Stephanie. She was there for us every step of the way. It's hard to put into words just how much love and attention she gave us. She didn't just do her job-she genuinely cared for my entire family. Stephanie made us feel so welcomed, and made us all feel like part of the family. She truly made a big impact on our stay and in our hearts. This family vacation was a beautiful memory. If you're thinking about visiting, do it. This place is stunning, the beach is unreal, and the people make it all worth it. Thank you Stephanie and the entire staff at Secret Playa Esmeralda ![Stephanie “THANKS YOU” for making our first visit to D.R. magical ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/646d76ee-fbbd-497d-872a-f5b1f0bf8a2d-1751907923008.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Brian De Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ana Jul 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My family and I visited the Dominican Republic for the first time and stayed at Secrets Playa Esmeralda. The moment we arrived, we were welcomed with open arms and beautiful tropical views. From the blue ocean and mountain landscape. Just WOW! My family and I decided to upgrade to  Preferred Club, and the attention from every member of the staff was excellent. It truly elevated our experience. But there was one person, in particular, who made our trip extra special, Stephanie. She was incredible. She was so attentive, kind, and thoughtful. She was always making sure everything was right for me and my family. What made her stand out was how genuine she was and the care and love she poured into everything she did. It never felt like it was part of her job to go above and beyond for us. It felt like it came straight from her heart. She truly made us feel at home, and she made sure that our first time in the Dominican Republic would be nothing short of AMAZING. Her great energy, beautiful personality, and sincere dedication left a forever impression on my entire family. Thank you, Stephanie, for making this trip so special and memorable. We are so grateful to have met someone so wonderful, and my family and I are looking forward to returning back at Secrest Playa Esmeralda. What a great resort this is.

The resort is stunning and the property layout makes getting around a breeze. They had great dining options every night and we didn’t have one dinner that failed to meet or exceed our expectations. We spent 7-8 hours a day between the beach and Manatees bar with Eddy, Mildred, Marina, and Perfecto who were our favorite staff members and a blast to be around. But I can’t forgot our butler Yeudy who was there whenever we needed something for the room or help coordinating a night out or travel plans. We can’t thank the staff enough for making our trip so amazing (but especially those 5 I mentioned)! ##### Logan Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elisebeth Jane Rachel Aug 23, 2025 ##### Elisebeth Jane Rachel Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### MELVIN Aug 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Playa Esmeralda es un paraíso.
