    The resort is fantastic. Great amenities. Lots of fun stuff to do. The main reason for my 3 star review is the food. It was atrocious. That said, I didn't get to eat at all the restaurant, but the three I went to were aweful.

    Service was great. Resort was beautiful. Good drinks, name brand liquor. Only downside was the food. I would rate everything I mention above a 5 star on its own. The food2 stars at best. Avoid the Mexican, it was literally terrible. The French restaurant okay, the American restaurant was "good" in comparison. Hibachi was good too but requires reservation. Buffet was iffy at best. Really if food is important to you I wouldn't recommend this place.

    Family orientated; whilst not overbearing, the poolside apartments are beset with noise from kids and regular "parties". The overly loud music is all based on "Drum and Bass" and must be targeted at teens; a quiet time you will not get at NOW Larimar.
    The settings are very well maintained and the staff are friendly, courteous and helpful.
    The rooms are clean and airey.
    The beach is clean and well maintained, though if you have a plan to use it, make sure you bag your spot early because it gets busy.
    Spend the extra on Preferred status; it's not much more money and it gives you the run of the place. If you're prepared to holiday in Punta Cana and enjoy the indulgences of Sun, Sea, Surf, Sand, perfect Pools and a FREE bar, it's churlish not to go the extra mile.
    Avoid the Sales Presentation. This is a typically American formatted high-pressure selling technique that literally blasts you with initially huge numbers that decrease with each barrage. It'll last all morning and leave you stunned. My advice? Sign nothing on the day and go away and "do the numbers" to decide if what they're offering suits your projected lifestyle.
    Azure skies and not too hot; a perfect time in April/May time.

    The Preferred guest experience at Now Larimar was amazing!! Well worth the extra to have access to more services, amenities and personalized staff. As for the resort, the food was great, staff was friendly and the grounds were well kept and gorgeous. Beach was spacious and clean. Pool areas and bars were big, and there was a great choice of quiet or party atmosphere. One fault was the high cost of off site excursions and trips. Otherwise Highly recommended.

    This resort was beautiful with an amazing staff!! Jumbo Mambo was a staff member with a great personality. He made me and my family very comfortable. The night club located in the resort was enjoyable but did close very early. They have multiple food options but unfortunately none of the food options was Dominican food which was a bit upsetting. Being in Dominican republic i wanted to experience their culture and it was hard to do that within the resort. i would recommend that the resort should have a Dominican restaurant located in the resort. Other than that keep up the great work !! P.S if you are looking to do an excursion i would suggest the Monkey Jungle , it was an unforgettable experience where you are able to interact with monkeys and our tour guide ( Sammy) had so much information to provide us with during our ride ! He had amazing energy and made our excursion wonderful. So remember Monkey Jungle and request Sammy !! You won't regret it.

    Went with the kids (5 & 10) and had lots to keep them and myself busy and entertained the whole week. The staff are amazing and super friendly. The facilities are clean and lots of options for eating. We went for a wedding which was beautiful!!! They did such a great job with the arrangements! I would recommend Now Garden to anyone. We stayed at Now Garden and shuttled to Larimar. It was nice and quiet with entertainments short walk or shuttle away.

    Would recommend this resort to any family. It's perfect in every way. We stayed in preferred club we has a concierge 24hours they were fantastic all staff were amazing we also had breakfast in the room and private pools. It also caters for weddings in very beautiful surroundings, whether it be by the pool, lush gardens or even on the beach. Restaurants have amazing food. My kids loved the kids club.

    Good choice for an all inclusive hotel with friendly staff, nice rooms and good choices in the buffet.
    The reason for not giving 5 stars are:
    - Most alcoholic drinks that were inclusive were below expectations. The red/white wine was completely undrinkable (and believe me, I'm not a fuzzy drinker) - a clear strategy to get guests to spend money on wine bottles for sale.
    - The "resort credits" you receive are also sort of a scam. You can only use them to discount to a small degree on regular prices.

    Apart from this, it was good. Good value for money all in all I think.

    Just came back from our trip and had an excellent time!! Everything about the resort is really good. Its very clean, room spacious, food was above average..loved the tropical fruits and juices served during breakfast. Best part was the entertainment team..all of them went above and beyond to make our trip memorable..special mention - baby face, mariachi, fifty cents 😀😀. Evening shows were top class. The beach is beautiful - white sand..the sea weed was there but did not bother us much. We did not take the preferred club membership but still had a blast.

    The only positive is the staff. They are incredible people doing the best they can with what the resort has to offer. There were no umbrellas at the pools, the lounge chairs were falling apart. The food was mediocre. Our rooms air conditioning went out, the tv didn't work properly and we kept getting woke up by a rooster at 3am every morning. I do have to say the staff stepped up and gave us a new room.

    We decided to "upgrade" from the Now Garden but the food sucks. Everything seems to have a weird ingredient that makes you feel bloated after eating. Seems like they get cheaper ingredients. Tomatoes are green and red (same slice), bread is tasteless, service is mediocre at best. Nobody understands English and people are constantly trying to peddle stuff to you on the beach. It is beautiful and if you drink enough of the watered down liquor you will still have fun.

    Update: Don't eat the beach chicken. It will give you some kind of stomach bug and you will not want to leave your room.

    Nice relaxing area. Drinks are overflowing. The food could be improved during the day there's very limited options. The night life is more exciting but not wild. All the staff is friendly and for weddings and special events they truly try to create whatever your vision is(of course there's a fee for all extras). And ask about off site shopping malls they offer transportation and the souvenirs are more reasonably priced than the onsite shops

    It was a great experience for me and my husband in our honeymoon! but this place is perfect for a family with kids! They should advertise if correctly by sayigis for family and kids! not for two couples! Another thing, if you are Dominican and you were born in the USA like me and you have a husband outside of your culture non Spanish speaker is better to speak in English because a lot of staff go overboard and doesn't have no boundaries! the men over there are like hounds they don't care if you are with your husband! but overall my husband and I had great fun! food drink and event was cool.

    The resort is very pretty and relaxing. The staff is attentive, friendly and very polite. All the staff members know several languages. The food is delicious, you have many choices. The entertainment and atomsphere is great. The only turn off is they try to sell you time share and they are very persistent about it. Other than that a great place!

    I would say it's an ok place to visit. The staff tries hard but they really can't deliver on the product - food, drinks, and property are 3rd world quality. Lower your bar of expectations and you'll enjoy your visit. There are many great excursions to experience on the island, which is why you should come. All resorts are about the same based on conversations with others.

    Sister resort to the Now Garden. Very expansive. Many pools and is also attached to the beach. The Carnival buffet is amazing and the main plaza is filled with 5 restaurants, a nightclub, a sports bar with bowling, billiards and foosball, a cafe, a theater, a gym, a spa and even a clinic! The Garden is also a wonderful place but you think of that as a residential area and the Larimar is like the city square. Customer service is also UNMATCHED. Never seen anything like it. Not one order of food or drink came out wrong. Can't wait to come again and it's only been day 3 out of 7.

    The service is good but my main complaint is the food. I'm currently laying in my hotel room with the worst food poisoning I've ever had. Everyday my girlfriend and I along with another couple had minor stomach issues everyday here but it wasn't really anything too bad. Until now. I've thrown up a handful of times already and I'm sure there's more to come. I'm pretty sure it was from the "Italian restaurant" they have here. Do yourself a favor and don't come here.

    We stayed there for couple of nights. The room was tiny and weird set up for the bathroom. The food at the Asian restaurant was terrible. The international restaurant, which is big, was the only good one. We watched the performance show they put in the auditorium and that was good. Also, unlike other guests who stay building that's a walk away from the beach, our room was overlooking the pool and quite close to the beach, which is a big plus. Overall, wish the rooms were bigger and the food better for the money we paid.

    My husband and i stayed here about a week ago. Most of the trip went well, however i feel i must tell the negative aspects as well. Upon arriving at the resort, right when we got off the van that transported us from the airport, we were pressured over and over to attend a promotion for their resorts. They wanted us to attend a 90 min seminar about joining or becoming a member. We had just traveled nearly 2,000 miles, we were tired, and extremely hot and uncomfortable, we told them this several times, and they just continued to bother us. They even went as far as saying "oh your room is not ready, so you might as well talk to us". This was obviously a lie, as we made reservations months in advance. Finally, to get them off our backs and to go away, we agreed to an 815 a.m appointment the next morning (we wernt really planning on going, however). The next morning arrived, 815 passed, and our rooms phone began ringing. We ignored it knowing it was them, however it just kept ringing. We finally answered it, and it was the same man from the day before who was pressuring us, and he was asking "where are you, you didnt show up to your appointment" i answered "we are not coming, you made us feel uncomfortable". After this, This fiasco still wasnt over yet. The next few days we were followed throughout the resort property by this mans "supervisor" who was asking my husband behind my back to talk me into attending the promotion. YET again, another time, we were approached in the lobby and told we would be given 100 dollars to spend in their gift shops if we attended. The weather was rainy, so we finally gave in. We attended the seminar, and during it, we were treated like we were their best friends. Then, after it was over and we respectfully declined becoming members, their attitude immediately changed toward us, they got up and just walked away. No thank you for your time, no nothing. It was A big act. Other than this experience of being stalked, we had a good time. Our room was spotless, the resort grounds were beautiful as well as the beach. The resort entertainment was great. We had a good time, however next time we will stay somewhere else.

    Likes: Beautiful resort. Very friendly staff. Clean beach. Good drinks.

    Dislikes: Incessant daily haggling to purchase items, do excursions, etc from staff (this was incredibly annoying). High pressure tactics to purchase a "timeshare". Undoubtedly the worst food I've experience at a resort ever.

    Awesome staff good food selection. They push for timeshare too much. My friend cell phone disappear from the bathroom in just a minute. No one saw anything.

    Drinks were goodPool was fun..Food was awful. I'm not a very picky person and even I was disappointed with the food. Our entire group couldn't wait to get home to eat. Almost everyone in our group of 30+ got sick at least one day. The entire resort had a gross smell and the food had the same weird taste. The sports bar smelled so awful. It was below the night club that had a pool and you could actually see black mold growing on the walls. Most people would walk in and walk right out of the sports bar. Go somewhere else. Anywhere else.
