My partner and I were let down at the moment of arrival.. We were promised an upgrade for our engagement celebration that the hotel was unaware of, so we did not get one, but that was fine as we were just excited to be on vacation. Our room however quickly shocked us, we arrived just around midnight only to check into a room that has not been renovated in decades, which would've been fine, had our pillows not smelt like sweat and had there been a bedsheet on our bed. The bathroom was also a tiny tub with a shower head that had barely any water pressure, lukewarm water at best which was also sometimes yellow/brown in colour. The shower curtain had also not been changed. For our balcony, we did have 2 chairs & a table, as well as a drying rack, but unfortunately the screws had fallen out of the wall so it did not hold more than 1 bikini top. The resort itself is beautiful, 2 pools, both warm water & chest deep but clean. Beach was sandy & clean. The buffet was mediocre at best, with the same selection every day, sometimes they served left overs from the day prior, (which would have been okay if 200 people had not dug their way through it the day prior), honourable mention to the raw fish we were served on 2 separate occasions. Servers were not attentive, our tables were cleared from our personal belongings multiple times & sent to reception whilst we were grabbing a plate of food. Had to wait to be served water or coffee often times way past halfway through our meals, unfortunately cups & water were not available for grabs, they would have to bring it to the table. We were also only given 1-2 water bottles a day for our room, but for $1 the gentlemen doing the water runs would toss in a few extra bottles in secret. Lastly, the wifi also did not work at night time to watch something on our phones or around the resort. Oh! And we were also invited to a special breakfast by the exclusive membership sales team, which took about 3-4 hours, where they wanted to sell us a premium 25 year membership to their exclusive club & had a hard time understanding that we were not interested.

Lots of pools; bar areas to choose from. Beach is not huge but it was very clean and the sand in the ocean is soft and rock free. Loved the Bali beds by the beach. Lots of restaurants to choose from as well. The Anime team was excellent and there was always a contest for someone to enter. We were in block 202 which was excellent as the show are past the Tropical area and so is the bigger buffet at the Casablanca. The Pearl at the Cofresi was excellent for breakfast and much less busy and much quieter than the Casablanca. We enjoyed the bigger selection at the Casablanca for dinner. Beautiful grounds. Yes, not for people with mobility issues as there are lots of stairs, that being said, it was nice to have those since we ate so much. Drink mixes are not great but there was selections for other things. Huge resort when shared with the Lifestyles grounds/resorts. Too many choices. Couldn't see all of what Lifestyles had to offer and do it all in the 8 days we stayed at the Cofresi. Rooms are showing their age, however our rooms were always very clean and our housekeeper was excellent and very friendly. Hot water and pressure were an issue at busy times, however, it is a huge resort so I can see how they have issues with everyone having hot water before dinner time or early morning. Did not like all the people who stayed at the other timeshares who visited with their golf carts. They had no respect for guests walking on the walkways. It would be nice if speed bumps or gates were installed to slow them down. Also when there were many of them, the fumes were bad. I would go to this property again. Great price for what you get compared to other resorts I've been to. Love the mountain views and everything Puerto Plata had to offer. It was better than what I expected. Then again, as long as there is variety; it's clean and help is available when needed, that's what matters to me most. I would not recommend this property for someone will kids. Lots of stairs no matter where you want to go. Not easy to get around with strollers. The tropical is flatter for families.
