VIK Hotel Arena Blanca

The hotel is in bad conditions, need maintenace and repairs

Resort ws bit run down

air didn’t work, pool closed early, the food wasn’t that great.

O resort não tinha água para tomar banho!!! Depois só tinha água gelada. O Banheiro do quarto parecia que nunca foi limpo!!! A área externa é boa, mas a estrutura do Hotel está velha sem a manutenção adequada. Outro exemplo é o restaurante o chão não era lavado só passavam um pano. Quase não dava para ficar em Pé. Fora a atenção dos funcionários eles fazem grandes jornadas de trabalho com isso sempre está estressados. Fora a minha reserva que demorou mas de 40 min para achar durante o check in.

JUST KNOW THAT WI-FI IS ONLY AVAILABLE IN THE RESTAURANT OR LOBBY. There’s no Wi-Fi in your rooms. The staff was nice but honestly and truly this hotel is run down/ outdated . There were stains on my bed, the bathroom sink was clogged up. I had initially booked for 4 nights due to the price but ended up booking for Catalonia resort. The difference was like day and night. I enjoyed my stay at Catalonia. It’s mostly senior people at the VIK resort and the food was limited and not visually appetizing. Book if this is your first experience with an all inclusive so when you book better you’d appreciate it .

The staff was always confused and unsure. They also confirmed airport pick up and then forgot and never showed up. Leaving me to figure it out. The seaweed was very bad and they made a poor effort to clean it. The drinks were horrible and did not taste how they were supposed to. They promote 3 restaurants but I only have the third opened every other day. Rooms did not have comforters only a thin sheet. Pool was nice.

it was horrible rooms very old couldn't even open the closet doors and the main pool was under remodeling . sea weed on the beach couldn't even see the sand. piles of it and the smell from see weed. its the worst hotel in Punta Cana. expedia should not even put this hotel in travel section . it had 4 star rating it should minus 4 stars. i will never book thru expedia again. i should get a full refund from my stay thank you for your time. jm

really safe resort, lots of beach chairs to chose from, and a good balance of shade and sun tanning options if you are trying to manage exposure to the sun. Security keeps people off the resort from approaching you to sell something.

Buenas tardes !!!! Soy Eleane J.Figueroa dueña de la tarjeta de crédito utilizada en la reservación y también fui una de las 5 familias afectada ante la situación detallada más adelante. Por este medio me estoy tratando de contactar con ustedes debido a que la Compañia Expedía sea trato do de comunicarse con ustedes en varias ocasiones y no han podido. La razón por el cual los estamos contactando es por la reservación a nombre de María del. Rosario Cruz Cardona y 2 miembros más de su familia con el número de itinerario 72600957234049 estadía comenzaba el día 19 al 26 de Julio el cual solo se quedó 1 noche debido a que luego de varios cambios de cuarto por falta de aire acondicionado. Era un viaje familiar el cual 4 familias más los acompañaban y les pasó lo mismo que las unidades del aire acondicionado están dañados todos cancelaron. También a la piscina lugar no seguro debido que se le estaban saliendo los pedazos de cemento del fondo. A los demás familiares se le pusieron rembolsar el dinero pero al de María del Rosario Cruz Cardona aún no se a devuelto debido a que fue por Expedía y ellos tiene que contactarse con ustedes para la aprobación. El gerente fue muy amable y entendió la situación y hizo las devoluciones correspondientes. Esperó pronta contestación de ustedes. Las personas a cargo de nuestro caso en el hotel fueron Adrián Montoya y Rubén Balbuena y Calos Moni. Cordialmente, Eleane J. Figueroa Cruz

This property has seen better times. It needs to be refurbished. Breakfast is good; dinner not so much.

For the most part the staff was excellent! We didn’t receive a true welcoming once we arrived. The reason we stayed at the hotel was to possibly look into having a wedding there. We learned that at check-in they no longer host wedding. 😡 Need to remove that from advertising. We had bugs in our room, contacted service desk - we were told someone was coming. No one showed (we reported the sighting 1 day and we were there for 4 nights). We ended buying bug spray and doing it ourselves. I’m sure others have had great experiences, ours wasn’t. It’s an outdated hotel with tons of potential. If I see it ever gets renovated, may try again. However we will not be back anytime soon!

The beach was amazing; food is ok but there is room for improvement, they lacked variety. The bed was uncomfortable; somes parts of bathroom were rusty. Lots of kids and families there. Overall it was a good stay, budget friendly

Muchos huéspedes nos quejamos del aire acondicionado en la habitación en mi caso solo tuve Dos días funcionando Pregunte por alguna compensación y md dijeron k no era posible Ya yo había perdido mi primer día de hotel por cancelación del vuelo por parte de jet blue cosa ajena al hotel pero solicité servicios de caja de seguridad y al menos me la pudieron dar free como compensación al menos de la falta de aire acondicionado La llave la use 5 días y me cobraron 6 días Tenían poca disponibilidad de cambiar dólares en la recepción aún yo buscaba csmbio para dejarles propinas😱

Overall is a good place. The bedrooms and bathroom showers are a little outdated.

The property was perfect for our vacation. It was small enough to feel intimate and safe, the pool and beach area were nice, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Dining options for a vegetarian were limited to the buffet and the snack bar, which were sufficient but a little boring after 5 days. There wasn’t a locking safe in the hotel room and it was difficult to lock the patio doors. But we didn’t encounter any safety concerns.

The customer service was great and the service was good and the food was excellent and the water the beach was great and I highly recommended to anyone who’s looking for a place to go in vacation

Everyone was very friendly and kind.

Luis and Tony are the best. They’re the reason I keep coming back.

Our stay was excellent. The only thing i wished they had is a sugarless option for oatmeals and hot chololate, but other than that the options were very good. Delicious foods all around.
