My wife and I have stayeed at the Merengue 3 times now. When we stayed there we had access to the other 2 resorts. So we did visit both the Bachata and the Mambo. We liked all 3 but only had food and drinks and used the pools at the other 2. All 3 share the same beach and provides a nice walk from begining to end. By the way, we always get our best price using bookit.com, we do not use air, only the resort as we live in Puerto Plata.
