Overall, it's a very nice maybe 3-star all-inclusive, at least for Cabarete (vs say Punta Cana). The room itself was clean and bed comfortable, but needs upgrade and repair - faucet was loose, screen door to patio was jammed, TV reception was unwatchable. Food was 2-star at the buffet, maybe 3-star at the reservation-only restaurants (of which you can only go to 3 times per week). But beach was great - no snorkeling, but perfect for playing in the surf, or watersports. I was there specifically for kiteboarding, and Cab did not disappoint!
Some negatives - if you happen to get a room near the road, it will be very noisy from all the motorbikes. Also note that the "exploring opportunities" are basically limited to the walking the beach - the main street and town are pretty rough and dirty. But some pretty fun little bars and restaurants up and down the beach.
Would I recommend? If you're looking for Punta Cana caliber opulence, then you'll need to offer them some latitude. But for the value, it's a solid choice.
