Loved the Barcello Beach Resort last yr! The steak house was yummy and everyone was so nice. It was super bowl and they set up a big screen TV and the waitress got a kick out of everyone cheering! They would imitate us and then smile teasing. We brought toys and gave some to the bartender for her sisters kids and she was so excited and thanked us over and over. The only thing we didn't like was the divider on the decks were not to the ground and a baby crawled under to our side! We rented a car and toured around and the drivers are much like Paris and Rome! Crazy. Pot holes not as big as St Lucia where we lost our car inside one!
About the vendors. We seem to have very good luck with the vendors. We try to talk to them one on one and have had great conversations about Red Soxs, family, work and their travels also! Many have family in US and have been for visits.
My suggestion is to treat them like you want to be treated. We also usually share a beer while we shop around and try to speak some spanish. They love mocking our Boston accent and all and all it's a fun time.
We are off to Puerto Plata hotel Rui Bachata next week and hope we have the same luck with the everyone there!
