Booked a week due to Lifestyle having taken over our vacation club at Victorian House, Sosua. Got a one bedroomed suite beside the Italian Restaurant. Suite was more than adequate for 2 people however states that it can accommodate 4 people which would not be comfortable. Was very clean and comfortable and the maid service was excellent. Food in buffet... more

We had a two bedroom apartment at the Lifestyle Residence Suites from June 14 through the 21st. It was rennovated, clean and plenty of hot water and good air conditioning. It was a 5 minute walk to the Casa Blanca buffet and beach through the Tropical Gardens area. There are shuttles if you are willing to wait. All of the... more

After reading the reviews posted on trip advisor we had mixed feelings about this resort and did not really know what to expect. We talked with several couples who felt the same way after reading trip advisor reviews. So we made a committment to provide honest information about our stay at the resort. 1. The property is nice, not exactly... more

26Apr-3May08 We were terrified after having booked this vacation to read the reviews. It turned out to be a nice week. Checkin was a 3 hour process but you could roam the property. We ate, drank and were merry! The 2 bedroom Penthouse we got via RCI was great. Overlooked a wonderful pool. You will find that depending on where... more

If you have kids and you forget something in... more

I stayed at the LIfestyles resort for one week with two of my girlfriends from college. We were picked up from the airport by a taxi that Lifestyles sent. They were waiting with a sign with our name on it and were immediately ready to go. The ride from Puerto Plata airport was very quick, only about 20 minutes. The... more

Just returned from Puerto Plata, DR. Had expected the worst after reading some of the reviews of Lifestyles Crown Residence Suites and Villas. Have done 5-star and yet we still throughly enjoyed this resort. Sadly, some reviewers had poor vacations, perhaps they expected 5-star. We enjoyed it here. We had a really nice 2 bdrm.-2 bath suite. The people were... more

This was my first time ever in the Dominican Republic and I was not disappointed. The Lifestyles Crown Residence Suites was a fabulous resort. Their logo is "Tell it only to your Best Friends" and I can see why - if you told everyone there would never be any rooms left! The service was impeccable and immediate. My every need... more

We just returned from our vacation this weekend at this resort for the 4th year. Each year, we are so amazed at the improvements and changes. I am really not sure what the issues are regarding the negative reviews, as we have never had anything but positive wonderful experiences at this resort. They are constantly working very hard, especially when... more
