And sent guests to Casa Marina.
I thought tourist traffic had picked up in Sosua? Or is it just in POP?
Found this review on trip advisor dated 3/24:
I checked into the hotel to which i thought the bad reviews was overexaggerated as I am an easy to please person and was not expecting much for the price. After 3 days a letter was put under all the doors saying we had to vaccate the premises as they were closing and did not care we was left with no where else to go. they were unhelpful and it was a discrace we was given no notice at all....it was just a big shock. Even when the hotel was open the standards were really low every for 3* the food was unedibale and even the a la carte menus were disguishing! Even if this hotel reopens do not stay in this cannot be improved over night!
QUOTE=Viajero;1071637]I guess the folks that purchased the "timeshares" are screwed?
this is not true!! i dont believe that first they can legally do that.... nor would he.... i can assure you all the people that did buy the package would never stay there again!!
plus, if i remember correctly, the packages that were sold * my friend being one of the buyers) were purchased when arrmando was still in charge....he did benefit from all the early sign ups....but then again, this is sosua!!
please if anyone knows... post it!! let us know if the timeshare packages that were bought over a year ago are still in effect????? currious as to where am i going to stay next trip...lol
I think the prob is the place is just too outdated to compete with the newer AIs. Too many small rooms and not enough higher end suites. Some of the smaller hotels have studios just as nice if not better now. Who would be their demographic now?
Depends on who and what corporation you bought timeshare from. Usually it is a third party who contracts for space at he hotel. You have to determine if they are still viable. In the DR timeshare owners are non-equity owners. So in he event of bankruptsy, they are unsecured creditors, or in other words, sh*t out of luck.
Better to have 10 hotels with 20 rooms than one hotel with 200 rooms. In my experience, the smaller hotels are better maintained and they take better care of you.
WHAT KIND OF BULL**** RESPONSE IS THIS???? do you just feel like hearing yourself type??? we r talkin about sosuabay hotel.... and you drop these words of wisdom... what the fuk??? tambo u believe this meatball?????
