I have stayed at the hotel on at least four occasions. Have not been there in recent years, because of family considerations entailed stays in the Capital and the east.
I like the Hamaca very much. It is all inclusive, at bit upscale from the other resorts I have visited. It is 10-15 minutes from Las Americas Airport. If you booked an all inclusve package with the hotel, you may have a greeter from the hotel at the airport to assist you to your ground transportation to the hotel. If you approach the resort from Boca Chica, the main Hotel building will be on your right looking over the beach. The main building offers a casino, restaurants, bars, banco de cambio and i'm sure many additional amenities and creature comforts. The beach although smaller than those of other resorts is kept very clean, plenty of beach chairs, bars, snack bar, and activities. There is usually entertainment at beach theater each night. The opposit side of the road from the main building offers additional rooms, restaurant, pools, bars. It is also a very short walk to the beach area from there. Yet, the hotel does have a shuttle service if needed.
You will like the place. If you need more information on the hotel, check this following website.

Have a wonderful trip. Don't pass up an opportunity to visit Boca Chica.
