First time staying at Sandos Playacar, definitely would come back. Resort was beautiful, beach was great. The girls at the Guest Experience (especially Zyanya) were amazing. They helped us book all dinner reservations while we waited for room to be ready. Also helped us to upgrade our room from a Family Junior Suite to an Adults Only Select room as these were closer to the beach and adult pool. The food was delicious, definitely recommend El Gaucho Steakhouse
