    Definitely would stay here again, but prospective guests should know....

    rating27 Feb 2026

    I would certainly stay here again...but prospective guests in 2026 need full disclosure: there is a significant construction project happening on site (see attached photos). In fairness, the noise level was not bad at all. It was a visual shock on the first day, then we didn't care; The rest of the grounds were so immaculate and green.For those with short attention spans:PROS:- a lot of green space, palm trees, tropical fauna. Very inviting- three excellent, open air (covered) places to enjoy the tropical air while you dine, sip coffee, or play a card game.- the swimming pool is first rate; inviting and not crowded at all- the resort has a LOT of grounds-keepers and maintenance people who keep everything in great condition; they are constantly polishing and cleaning.- the beach is kept fairly clean (5/7 days it was like a TV commercial, then a heavy rainstorm washed up a lot of plastic bottles and rubbish)- very walk-able. The entire Playa Dorada complex consists of several beach-side hotels/properties that are guarded/secure. You can walk sidewalks/paths/beach to reach them all.- we found Blue JackTar to be the most inviting of all the hotels in Playa Dorada. Yes, some are more modern, but they are concrete jungles. Gran Ventana is like a cruise ship on a beach.- The free breakfast at Blue Jacktar was very generous and had enough variety to keep you full for half the day.CONS:- The construction of a multi-story new complex at the site is a bit jarring. Noise was noticeable at times, but manageable and not loud enough to disturb most activities. -Some people might find some of the rooms a bit dated. We had a dated room, but it was very clean.

    Don’t trust the photos

    rating13 Aug 2024

    This is an old, outdated and pretty dirty place. As some of the reviews pointed out (and I wish I would read them more carefully) the pictures are misleading. Definitely not worth the price, and no way this is a 4 star place. Max 2. Glad it’s only a short stay here.

    Never Going Back to BlueJack

    rating17 Mar 2024

    Horrible. Terrible. Been to many places in the Dominican Republic as well as other countries. The staff was horrible; the least friendliest I have ever experienced. The food was terrible. The beds are small, cheap, and uncomfortable. The rooms are not as cute as they look in their pictures and the views are not worthwhile. When I called before making the reservation to ask if their beach had seaweed they lied about the beach being clean. Their adult drinks are light in alcohol. The place is quiet. But there are many places that are quiet that have better food, service, and comfort.

    Pleasantly surprised with this last minute holiday booking

    rating02 Jan 2024

    The hotel is clean and safe and the beach is beautiful and not too busy. The breakfast included is excellent and both the beach and more formal restaurants have a nice variety of offerings. Also convenient is a playground right next to the main restaurant which is nice for those traveling with children. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful to respond to any needs. I would definitely stay here again.

    Perfect for family and friends

    rating20 Apr 2023

    We spent the day on the beach and loved every minute. The water was great and the lounge are was amazing. Perfect food service delivered right to your loung cabana. I would definitely recommend the nachos and spending your time here, it wasn't crowded at all.
