Top hotels in Oriente
Caribe Hilton
Pools and grounds are gorgeous. The whole place has a beautiful resort feel. Ocean view is the best on the north shore—crashing surf on two sides and calm swimming lagoon to the west.

Hyatt Vacation Club at Hacienda del Mar, Dorado
The resort was definitely nice, clean, and friendly. The main issue was the construction. It was loud and sometimes got in the way if you were trying to get somewhere. One day seemed to be right next to our room so was really loud.
