These guys are ripping off people by showing them a way to use their currency exchanger to gain profit but what they really are doping is leading unsuspecting people into a trap. To their fake Liberty Reserve site and then they get your info on your liberty reserve account and wipe you out. They have changed the name of their site 3 times. But the site and their exchange always looks the same no matter what they call themselves. Stay away from them! read full review »

On August 13th, 2010, while boarding US Airways flight 1669 from Punta Cana to Charlotte we experienced the most embarrassing situation perpetrated by an employee of Ventura Security, a "security company" outsourced by US Airways to handle a second tier of security measures for passengers boarding a US flight to the mainland. I was traveling with six passengers, two of which were senior citizens, 86 and 88, on wheel chairs. After going to Customs (Agriculture) and the (Dominican Republic) main security check point, we sat for over 1... read full review »

We have been unable to get resolution with LHVC over an upcoming reservation. We made the reservation almost 2 years ago and were told in writing that we would be put in the new villas for our stay. Upon checking on our reservation in September I was told that there was no guarantee. Since that time I have tried to contact the Jackie Bramhill, Customer Service Manager, to no avail. She will not answer my calls or emails. When I contact the resort they will not tell me who is in charge and get me to that person. The runaround continues and the trip quickly approaches. Does anyone know how to contact the President/CEO of LHVC? Thanks, Trudy read full review »

These guys called me posing as a pharmacy which I used years ago for diet medicine. They acted as if they were the same reputable company I delt with before and asked me what medications I was taking so they could save me some money. They gave me a great price and assured me they would have a Doctor speak with me and my local Doctor to write a prescription. I was very clear I wanted to make sure I would have a legitimate prescription and told them i could get one form my doctor they assured me they would research my history and have their... read full review »

The staff at Palma Real are eager to book atour or show you their vacation club. Try to complain about service and you get ignored and shown a lot of BS about protocol. Case in point. Stayed at this resort and ordered a bottle of wine. When the wine went bad we complained. The pompous manager Cesar Garcia simply told us over and over about the protocol for ordering the wine. He refused to hear us and refused to try the wine himself! Complained to the hotel manager who simply reiterated the wine ordering protocol according to Sol Melia. Bottom line: poor service that would never be tolerated in the USA. read full review »

My family was on vacation in the Dominican Republic last year and we purchased a timeshare vacation. VIP Platinum package...too embarassed to tell you how much we paid. Admittedly, I was greedy when I found out that I could set up my website and sell this stuff online. I did just that and in a few months, I started getting inquiries. No availability. They can offer me the week before or the week after but NOTHING for the weeks I am requesting. The resort did tell me that they would soft book some rooms for me in the hopes it would allow me to... read full review »

Recently (March 14 to 20th) my girlfriend and I, with recommendations from my sister, chose to holiday at a Riu Resort. March break did not come soon enough.Upon our arrival the staff greeted us with a warm welcome and showed us to our room. The room seemed mediocre and not at all like the photos. As our week passed by, things seem to get progressively worse.

But this was just a teaser. We also saw other from our resort talking to them so this must be a common practice. next we were offered a ride to their main resort located just north of Puerto Plata City about 20 miles away.

I live in the Dominican Republic for four years and I must use private forwarding services to receive packages and mail as the government postal service can take several months to get anything, along with having to pay off different people, if you get anything at all!
