we used this ranch many years ago when staying in the playa dorada complex. it was fun then and it was fun again.
they are very close by the complex so transport back and forth is quick and easy. we went in slow season so we were the only 2 riders which was nice.
the business has changed hands recently and the latest owner has apparently made some changes. they have some new animals and some update equipment.
the horses seem to be in very good condition and well cared for. so did the many friendly dogs that share the ranch.
both Angel and Alex have been here for many years and are great staff.
our booking agent originally had us booked with another operator in sosua. we were not too happy about having to travel that far back and forth so we were very happy when they changed at the last minute. we did not ask why.
pick up was on time. the pace was very leisurely. we had a beautifully scenic ride into the hills. some spots offered a great ocean view with a cool breeze while others were sunny and hot.
there is a stop along the way (thank god haha) to rest the horses (and the riders) where you can have a water or soft drink. beer is avail for purchase along some gifts if you like.
helmets are mandatory. closed toed shoes are always a good idea but if you only have sandals make sure they are secured strapped sandals and not loose flip flops.
this is a great way to see the countryside and much quieter than the buggies or atv's.
if you are considering riding as part of your vacation then choosing Lorilar is the right way to go.Written August 25, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It was foggy and drizzled rain for half the time we were in the park but that didn't dampen our enthusiasm for the beautiful flowers and plants along the paths in this well-kept park. We were able to catch a glimpse of the town from where the cable cars usually disembark, and the fog lifted enough for us to snap a picture of the Christ statue.
There are several paths to walk which when it is wet can be a little bit treacherous, but they do have handrails and steps to assist.Written April 23, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

This place has shopping, beautiful views and a fabulous lazy river! Great place to relax and soak

- Venture1053163515413 contributionsLots to do at Amber Cove. We choose a day at the Senator. All inclusive $68 per person, included towels, beach chairs. Unlimited drinks and food. Lots of pools to use, beach is rocky so use water shoes, great for snorkeling. Take a taxi, don't walk and get lost..I would not recommend the free beach..it was very dirty Lots of trash. Luckily a security guard took us to the Senator!! Beautiful resort.Written April 21, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Allen BMuskegon, MI1,201 contributionsBeautiful views! There just wasn't enough places to sit and enjoy the beauty and relax.

- David YYCCalgary, Canada198 contributionsWalkable (5km) from Iberostar Costa Dorata but also a cheap Uber ride. Like waking in a post card. Not a ton of places to eat but a few small spots but recommend El Patio de FridaWritten May 4, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Allen BMuskegon, MI1,201 contributionsThis is an interesting church on the city center. A guide will take you on a 10 minute tour providing history and taking pictures for you. They will ask for a donation which is used for the local children.Written January 8, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Allen BMuskegon, MI1,201 contributionsLocated in the center of the city, you will find this gazebo in a city square. We went the week of Christmas. There were Christmas decorations, people in costumes and vendors. There was a feeling of community and cheerful high spirit from all around. Not sure what it would be like any other time of the year.Written January 8, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Martin L4 contributionsThe go karts are tire and in need of love, but it's still lots of fun and the price is reasonable. Kids will enjoy it.Written May 23, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
