The Marlin at Taino Beach Resort

This “resort” needs some serious work. I was very disappointed when I got there to find out that there was no internet and no television…… 📺 . I think they should let the guess know that before they get there. The first night it was like I night in a horror movie. The bed was terrible the refrigerator was rusted, the microwave was missing the top part and the bathroom was disgusting.

I highly recommend this resort, beautiful beaches and pool. The resort is clean and well maintained. Friendly staff.

The property looks great, the staff is helpful and accomadating but there are some issues that could definitely be easily fixed. The pool is ipen longer than the slide which is crazy. Check in is at 3 but the slide closed at 4 and the pool at 6?? Was told to check out at 10 but sat in the parking lot ajd saw multiple people checking out at 11. So im guessing that 10 is for locals and 11 for foreigners? The tv's are also extremely outdated. The one's at their lesser hotel are bigger and more up to date.

I didn’t like that the pool wasn’t heated as we basically booked it for the pool experience. Also, the water taxi was broken, which was another reason for choosing this property

So the check in is pretty funny standard ask to do a timeshare review which we turned down.. the review center was a ghost town pretty weird. Our view is at a pool which there isn’t a human in site. Look left garbage containers. We are on the 5th floor.. elevator goes to 4, huck bags up from there. Room bed is old school spring mattress pretty rough. Room was pretty clean and has a bunch of kitchen utensils. Balcony is the only place to receive wi-fi but electric outlet blown out doesn’t work. So there’s that. Back to the pool where there is a blown out guy seeing the first 30 seconds of a bunch of classic rock tunes. Bad singer but very entertaining in a funny but not funny way. Water slide doesn’t work, shuffle board has sand dunes on it. Let’s just say it’s not kept up at all 1 out of 10 in maintenance. Stay away from railings in rooms and halls, very sketchy.. lol People working here are VERY nice. The little one restaurant on property scary “looks” upkeep. Servers very nice and food surprised not bad. We are calling this place zombie land. You want to be alone. This is the joint for sure.

I have been going to Taino Beach and staying in the Marlin for several years now. The area is kept clean, the pool is magnificent and the staff is great. I will go back again.
