I love this resort and staff. The entertainment staff participates in all activities as well as helps with all equipment and Bluetooth speaker. There are tons of water sports, including sailing, SUB, and more. The resort security is top notch. I have been twice and look forward to the next experience.

I taught HIIT and Bootcamp on the adult beach the week of January 7th, 2024 and I loved everything about my experience. The E-team members were so fun and kind, the ocean was calm enough to float in, and the pools were spectacular. Many varied restaurants to choose from, in addition to a buffet, coffee shops and bars. This was my first teaching vacation and I look forward to my next trip! I would definitely love to come back to Hilton La Romana. What a wonderful place with warm, kind people! I am so grateful for being accepted as part of the Fit Bodies community. Thank you!

I will give Fit Bodies a 5 plus stars review! Everything is so smooth, from the moment you open the website until the moment you get back home. It is an amazing process and the selection of places to go is simply fascinating. Every vacation is a great experience! Thank you for all you do!

Hi, I taught Zumba, Aqua Zumba, Kids Programming. Class is on the beach/ocean, at the pool. I used my phone and aux cord, as well as bluetooth to their big speakers. Everyone at the hotel was wonderful and extremely kind and helpful. The entertainment team was absolutely amazing and helped with everything related to classes while also participating and creating the most fun environment as they got guests to join in. They MC'd my classes and introduced me and even thanked me at the end of each class. They were the best! Hilton La Romana was my first teaching vacation and I highly recommend this resort! I travelled with 2 kids and my husband and the kids loved it just as much as we did! There was a waterpark with waterslides, amazing restaurants, a gorgeous beach front, beautiful pools, and the best e-team ever! I taught Zumba/aqua Zumba on the beach daily, facing the ocean with participants in the ocean which was wonderful to keep cool in the intense heat since it was at noon. There was supposed to be a second afternoon aqua Zumba class at the adult pool, but that got cancelled because of other programming and the weather. The staff helped me set everything up and introduced and promoted my classes. On the last teaching day, the resort had less guests and I taught some kids programming which included one stretch class in the morning and an afternoon kids zumba in the kiddy pool. We stayed on the family side, and had access to the adults only side as well (kids had to stay on family side though). I loved it at Hilton LA Romana, and I would encourage you to book this resort if you have not tried it!

The entertainment staff was amazing: Rosie, Yuliana, Julietta, Picasso, Gauli, Maria, Esteban, Jason, Ramon, and all of them!!! The food was excellent. Lots of variety! We upgraded to the private swim out pool and it was well worth it! Beds were large and very comfortable. Room was awesome and super clean each day. We had a wonderful stay and we can't wait to return someday! I taught yoga in grassy area in front of the spa/gym, and by the wedding gazebo

Taught Group Fitness and Kids Programming. Kids' Stretching was held in the garden near the Kids' Club. Boot Camp was held on the Adult Beach in front of the pool. Staff provided yoga mats, towels and the loud speaker for boot camp. fter traveling to multiple resorts through Fit Bodies, I can honestly say this was the BEST experience I've had as far as resort staff and the entertainment team. The ET was very organized, participated in all of my classes, friendly, and professional. This was, by far, one of my favorite resorts and locations I've traveled to. VERY kid-friendly, especially since we stayed on the family side and the resort has an amazing waterpark. All classes were well-attended with never having less than 10 people.

The entertainment team was incredible. Truly the best experience. They knew my name from day one. This was my best trip yet! Even my family agreed

The E Team was great. Always setting up and taking down and participation in each class. Another great teaching vacation. The staff at Hilton La Romana were very helpful and personable. I taught 2 Yoga classes (45 minutes) each day, 9:15 am and 5 pm. Beautiful resort.

The entertainment staff were welcoming and fun! A big shout out to Esteban, Maria and Yulianna who were always such a big help. I have waited almost 20 years to take this type of vacation and I am so thankful that I finally did it! It was a wonderful experience and very well planned from booking to arrival. The Fit Bodies team was very patient and helpful with all my questions. I will definitely be doing this again!

Amazing, the entertainment team is very active and involved, they welcomed me and promoted my classes, never before have I had this much participation for classes. Zumba on the beach was the highlight each day, the energy was fun and exciting I appreciated all the support and got to dance with the team. I can't wait to come back again. Overall the resort is beautiful and has lots of activities throughout the day and several pools, the spa was a great place for quiet retreat with a waterfall and walking paths very tranquil atmosphere. Daily I would go there in the mornings and practice for my classes. A great variety in the restaurants Chinola was our favorite but we had plenty of choices. Every trip is a great experience and I wasn't sure teaching classes at noon during the middle of the day was a good idea but the ET had perfected the amount of fun the guests look forward to being in the ocean and dancing. 50 plus people dancing with you smiling is the best appreciation I can ask for. The 4pm class couldn't compare maybe 1-2 people would dance or just watch, then I had the kids in the kiddie pool. The kids have a lot of activities throughout the day as well and that was fun as well. I'm still coming down off my adrenaline rush of excitement from my teaching vacation. I can't wait to book another one, I've never visited the same resort twice but this may be the one I come back too. I fell in love with all of it. Thank you La Romana and Thank you Fit Bodies.

The e-team at La Romana was FANTASTIC!! Esteban and Freddy were really welcoming and helpful. I loved that all of the e-team participated in both classes. Maria, Superman, Pablo Picasso, Yuliana, Jennifer, Jose, Genesis and others were so great to me! Zumba was on the family beach and adult infinity pool. There was a DJ for both classes!

It took me several years to finally make it happen and I'm so glad I did. The resort was beautiful and the staff was so welcoming. My family enjoyed so many activities as I was done teaching at 12 every day. I loved getting to know people from all over the world and connecting with fitness. I got to join a yoga and aqua zumba class one day to mee the other fit pros and they were both fantastic! I can't wait to do it again. Staff was fantastic. I had a hard time connecting with my E team at first and knowing my schedule as it changed daily and wasn't posted until morning of. They were very supportive and joined in classes and gathered participants each day. Loved working with them!

The entertainment team was the best I've ever experienced. Super organized. Set everything up for me every day. Cleaned everything up for me every day. Got waivers signed. Promoted my class. Took the class every day. Phenomenal! Only correction would be that the paper flyers had my correct teaching time. The Hilton La Romana daily activities/information website had one yoga class listed as 15 minutes long and the other listed as 25 minutes long when in reality they were both 45 minutes. Otherwise just a perfect working relationship with the Hilton entertainment staff. They treated me with so much love and respect! And by the end part of the week I had over 30 people attending! This was an amazing teaching vacation. I loved the resort! They gave me an awesome room. Everyone was beyond friendly. The water is as turquoise as it gets. Everything was SOOOO clean and everywhere you went you could see people cleaning something at the resort. The entertainment staff was the friendliest, hardest working team I've encountered and their fluency with English made it so easy to build rapport. I also loved having two other FitBodies instructors there too--- Sheri for Zumba and Natalie for Pilates. Thank you!!!!

The entire staff at Hilton La Romana was amazing! They were always helpful to answer my questions or fill my needs. The entertainment team was the best. They always had a large group participating. The resort staff in general was also great. I will definitely be returning! It was an amazing trip! I taught Zumba and I couldn’t have asked for a better E-Team. It is a busy schedule, but so fun. I taught a class at the kiddie pool at 11 am, it was not well attended. I had 2-3 each day, the kiddos were a little timid. The class on the beach at noon is a different story! I had about 50 or more people each day. That was my favorite class. Finally, I taught a class at 4:30 away from the water on the beach. This class was hit or miss. I had 10-15 a few days and none on others except for the E-team. They were always there participating and supporting me! It was also fun meeting one of the other fitness pros, Dawn Bowman! The food was great, we especially enjoyed the Italian restaurant. The grounds are so beautiful around the resort and the room was very nice! The staff is so friendly and always helpful. There is a bit of a language barrier, many don’t speak English. I hope to go back next year!

Yoga was on the spa lawn and kids club areas. It was difficult to make first contact with entertainment team manager, but so eventually met Freddie, the assistant. I did not meet Maria the director until near the end of my stay. The whole team went out of their way to make me feel welcome and part of their group! The resort is first rate! Food, rooms, activities - everything was amazing!! The fun team were always on time and had mats and towels ready for every class. They participated in every class and were very good at encouraging people to attend. I'd love to go back to this resort any time!!

Taught Zumba and Aqua Zumba! I was the Zumba instructor and taught two classes a day, each 30 minutes. One was Zumba but in the ocean so I made some Aqua modifications. It was a huge class every day! 30-80people. Then I taught a 4:30 class which was much more low key, 3-15 people on average. The entertainment staff - overall excellent. They were helpful in raising the classes energy level. Some staff were more eager to dance/Zumba than others. Yulianna and Esteban were especially fantastic!! And of course Pablo Picasso. The beach is fantastic - beautiful turquoise water, no seaweed, no waves. Lovely to swim in and you can sometimes even see fish. The beach area is fairly large. The resort was at capacity and sometimes we had trouble getting lounge chairs before they were claimed. However, the preferred beach staff helped us several times by finding and bringing us lounge chairs. The food - the buffet was great. We love shrimp and beef and there was plenty of it at the buffet during lunch and dinner. It would have been nice to have beef options for breakfast. There was lots of tropical fruit, although the selection varies day to day. The a la carte restaurants were pretty good and we were able to get steak for dinner almost every night. The waterfall shower in our room's bathroom was fantastic!

The entertainment team was amazing. Very welcoming. Attended every class of mine and really encouraged guests to join in. It was amazing! Already have my next trip booked! Taught Zumba and Aqua Zumba, plus kids programming. Really good class attendance. There was a little confusion about my reservation at check in, but I was given a room and it was all sorted out. I think the receptionist was new.

Great class attendance for Zumba. Used my ipad to the aux cord to their speaker on the beach. The entertainment staff was awesome and kind. Promoted the classes a lot and treated me as a star. Highly recommend. I really appreciated the opportunity to teach at Hilton La Romana! I will be doing another one pretty soon! Thank you!

Taught Pilates and kids programming. The spa lawn is nice for classes. Quiet. I took my own bluetooth for music. Hilton la Romana was one of my favorite teaching experiences thus far. I want to tell you about Fabio who was there teaching zumba... in all my teaching vacations I've never seen a Zuma in the sea. It was fantastic. Absolutely brilliant and the guests loved it! My pilates classes were full and the guests liked forward to it. The entire entertainment team is amazing at this resort. I didn't want to leave.
