Smoked: Rojas Blue Bonnets

Have been to the Dominican Republic over 10 times n last 10 years. Have stayed at this Resort previously. It is Secrets Cap Cana. They were purchased by Hyatt last year. I have purchased and enjoyed smoking great Dominican blends while on this beautiful island. Secrets now has no cigar edict on grounds to include beach. They will let you smoke in one designated area in the sun on the beach. This and they still have cigar shop with outrageous priced cigars on the property. And the rule is enforced. I chose an area on beach at least 50 feet from the closest other seats and sparked my smoke. Five minutes later approached by security who were polite but firm. So I would have never booked vacation if I knew. Picture is from my balcony and I can’t be seen smoking . Cigar lovers be aware of this rule at all Hyatt owned resorts.

    At least you have a very good cigar to smoke. Fired up a Rojas Blue Bonnets a few months ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. We all need to take a hard line against this no smoking hotels and beaches crap.

    F’. I booked a Secrets in Puerto Vallarta for January. WTF is the world coming to. I have stayed at the Majestic resorts in Punta Cans and cigars are welcome. It sounds like January will be my last trip to Secrets.

      I did find out that this beach is a private beach. No vendors, ect , but they also get to emulate lot their smoke free edict. We stayed at Secrets ZRoyal Beach in January. Not private beach so vendors ect but they can't stop you from cigar smoking.
