The hotel its ok; it offers ok rooms, food and drinks as you could expect in a medium range all inclusive,but it´s one of the best options you are going to get. The hotel its interesting as its built in the sea which makes it nice. It has 3 or 4 restaurants where you can eat better than the average... More

I've stayed at various all inclusives before and this no doubt is the worst I've stayed at. They have an inpractical system of checking in at 3pm regradless if you arrive any earlier; your bags are left in a room with all the other guests. They have an explanation session but if you don't know Spanish don't bother going! The... More

I arrived at the Decameron Aquarium in the morning. They have a long and dis organised process for check in, where everyone goes into one room where paperwork and passport information is taken and they advise you to go and have lunch and come back at 2pm to receive your key to your room as check in is not until...

Stayed 8 days at the Aquarium in May. Great location, a short distance from the airport, town centre, and the main beach. Pool area very nice, but lacks shade. The hotel consists of 14 3-story towers, build over the sea, and most rooms have excellent sea views. Bedrooms are reasonable sized with a balcony, however bathrooms are tiny. Air conditioning...

The Aquarium was the best choice for us out of all of the Decameron hotels on the island. I couldn't believe how cheap it was for an all inclusive and to have all of the great amenities! It is right in town so you can easily eat elsewhere if you choose. The food at the Aquarium (and at the other... More

The hotel itself is great. Make sure you request a room with ocean views or you will only be disappointed. Pay the extra its worth it. The property is large and spacious with good options for activities and restaurants. As it is all inclusive it makes it very tempting to have everything in the hotel. Make sure you venture out...

As another review said, I regret some folks seemed to have had a bad experience at this hotel and on this island. You have to consider where you are going and accept that if you travel in a typically rainy season : you're getting wet. Whether it's the rain, or the sea. Just accept it. In any case, you're in...

..i feel sorry for the guests who had bad experiences at this hotel. but my own stay was very pleasant, starting with the location of my room to the last drop of alcohol before my departure back to nyc. the hotel is not a 5 stars hotel, but for the value of the stay i think it is more than... More
