What guests think

At Hotel Marimba Punta Cana, reviews describe a budget stay with frequent maintenance troubles—like unreliable hot water, weak air conditioning, and nonworking TVs or outlets—offset mostly by low rates rather than by comfort or amenities.

Cleanliness draws recurring complaints, including roaches, moldy or smoky odors, and dirty tubs or pool. Service feedback is mixed: some guests found staff kind, while others reported overbookings, poor communication, and limited English support. The location offers nearby eateries and shops, but several felt it was noisy or unsafe; the beach is a drive away and no reliable shuttle is available, while breakfast is basic and often repetitive. Expect a very simple, no-frills stay with notable trade-offs.

The property was very outdated. Lobby furniture looked very well used. My room had a leaking airconditioner and it was extremely hot. Front desk did accommodate me a room change Pool around back was clean. There was mold growing around the circle drain of the sink. In the lobby was a bottled water jug cooler. This would not be my first choice. But worked well in a pinch. A lot of local shopping and restaurants in walking distance.

Stayed here one night due to an emergency, the room smelled Moldy and like cigarettes. Toilet was leaking, no warm water. The manager at the breakfast dining was very unwelcoming and act like you are begging for the breakfast that is included. We just walked away and didn’t eat anything. The pictures are a total lie and looks nothing like it. The pool area had broken and rusted chairs, my kids didn’t even want to go in the pool. It was a nightmare staying there. We didn’t sleep and just waited for morning to come and left.

Booked the king suite, with a supposedly jacuzzi tub. It looks like a jacuzzi tub. But it has one jet on the opposite side from where you would sit. Also the tub was dirty……the room also only had one plug in in the entire room. None by the bed. Would you like to have a drink? Well you better bring your own glasses as there won’t be any in the room. Want to know the time? Better keep that phone charged as there’s no clock either. Just a strange room all together

Todo horrible, no es un buen sitio para quedarse. No lo recomiendo. Nos tuvimos que quedar ya que nuestro vuelo fue cancelado y dormir unas 7 horas se nos hizo eternas. Cucarachas por todos lados, la peste a cigarro, el polvo que sale de los aires y la música al lado del hotel a todo volumen, No recomiendo que se hospeden aquí. Hubiéramos preferido dormir en el aeropuerto. Si andas con menores or personas mayores no se queden aquí.

I’ve stayed at some cheap hotels before. I usually do not leave reviews because you get for what you paid for, but this was by far the most disgusting place I’ve stayed . Roaches everywhere. The bathroom has a horrible smell because there is no windows. No mirror No fridge. No Netflix, YouTube etc…. There were kids screaming and running up and down the hallway at 3am. The water doesn’t drain properly in the sink, which therefore leaves the dirt from your body just sitting in the sink which is DISGUSTINGGG. You see the mock and dirt from yesterday shower because the sink doesn’t probably drained. This was by far the worst place I’ve ever stayed. Btw the beach is 20 mins away with Uber. The only good thing was, the AC worked perfect.
