Hotels with Swim-up Rooms in Samana

We spent a great time at Mahona Bed & Breakfast during our vacation at Las Terrenas. We decided to go to Las Terrenas after a recommendation from a friend that lives in the Dominican Republic. We were looking for something different to more popular destinations like Punta Cana or La Romana. We stayed there between January 10 and January 15th, 2017. Unfortunately, the weather those days was terrible (A storm was close to the island) but that didn't impede we relax at the hotel, use the pool, and eat the wonderful breakfast is prepared there by Jacques and staff everyday!. If you like French Toast, you have to order it everyday :).... Ask to Jackes to put on top local chocolate zest... Rooms are clean and beautifully decorated, the bed is king size, water pressure in the shower is very good, the internet works well and you are just a few steps from the pool and the "Bohio". We felt very comfortable and like at our own home. Thanks a lot to Jacques, Veronique and staff.

Mahona B&B is even better than the pictures; it's a real-life paradise. Mahona is a 2-minute walk from the beach and restaurants/bars, but far enough from the main street that loud noises are not prevalent - perfect for anyone looking for a bit of seclusion. Veronique & Jack were amazing hosts; they live on-site, so they are always available if you need anything. Be prepared for a breakfast spread of fresh fruit, fresh-squeezed juice, coffee, toast with homemade jams, eggs and/or french toast - all superb! Jack will also prepare delicious cocktails upon request (at a cost that's equivalent to, if not cheaper than, the local bars). The bar area also has a fridge with items that you can purchase (water, wine, beer, potato chips) - they start a tab for you behind the counter and you simply write down whatever you take, it's added to your bill at the end of your stay. Extremely convenient! In the room there's a mini-fridge stocked with water bottles, an in-room safe, lots of lights, a luggage stool, and a small desk. The windows are screened (there are no panes of glass, they are open to the outside) and there is no real A/C but there is a very effective ceiling fan right over the bed. It was generally pleasant, even on the hottest days I was there (88*C+). Both bath towels and beach towels (for the pool) are provided. NOTE: They do not accept credit cards on-site, so if you choose the 'pay later' option on Hotels.com, be prepared to pay your bill in cash!

We REALLY felt relaxed here, and I think part of that was that there wasn't a tv in the room (which at first we were disappointed with!) Rooms were lovely and decorated with many natural materials. Bed was very comfortable. The included breakfast was fantastic and even accommodated my dietary restrictions, by willingly using my own gluten-free bread that we had brought, to make me the most delicious French toast I've eaten in my lifetime! Staff were friendly (be aware though, you'll need Google translate if you don't have any Spanish or French language skills). The pool is very small, as is the area around it, so there were times we chose not to use it because there were simply too many folks there, and no loungers available (there's only 4) BUT it's a very short walk to the ocean, a very short drive to other beautiful beaches, and an incredibly short walk to a ton of restaurants and shops. The surrounding gardens are stunning!

The hotel was just lovely very quiet and relaxing. The rooms were very clean. The property was amazing please beware this is a bed and breakfast , the breakfast was delicious and the service as well. This is a very tranquil place surrounded by greenery everywhere.. The pool was very relaxing Perfect after spending the day at the beach and coming back to a relaxing environment. There are many beaches nearby, many places to eat. Magaly was very attentive and was there to answer any questions. Aris was also very attentive and was eager to please never said no !! She was part of the staff among the other 2 ladies very lovely. Jose was also pleasant to see. Overall I had a great time I rented the villa was perfect for 4 ppl.

Our stay at Mahona BnB exceeded our expectations! Lush grounds, soft lit pool and sitting area day or night, tranquil and exceptionally clean and thoughtfully decorated and designed rooms and superb staff always with welcoming smiles! A breakfast that included cafe, crepes, fruit, jam and croissants was a memorable way to start our day. This boutique hotel is well located with a short, well lit paved walk to the beach, restaurants and shopping. No need to drive anywhere in town. We highly recommend the his and her massages to relax and rejuvenate! We can not say enough great things about our new favorite BnB in Las Terrance. Muchas Gracias!

Our stay at Sunset Samana Hotel was nothing short of magical. Nestled in a breathtaking location, the hotel offers a spectacular view of the sea that simply takes your breath away. The private beach, adorned with swaying palm trees, and the pristine pool provided the perfect settings for relaxation and rejuvenation. What truly set Sunset Samana apart was the sense of exclusivity we experienced. Despite being in the midst of the season, we found ourselves completely alone in the hotel, adding an extra layer of serenity to our stay. Moreover, the clean and comfortable rooms, coupled with the convenience of private parking, ensured a hassle-free experience. Exploring the surrounding area was a delight, with numerous beautiful public beaches offering secluded spots for ultimate tranquility. Additionally, the proximity of restaurants within walking distance made dining options easily accessible. David, the owner of Sunset Samana, deserves special praise for his warmth and hospitality. His friendly demeanor and invaluable tips for trips enriched our experience, making us feel truly welcome and cared for. Having traveled extensively across the Dominican Republic, including stays at top-rated Punta Cana hotels, we can confidently say that Sunset Samana has captured our hearts. Without a doubt, it's the place we will wholeheartedly return to on our next visit.

This hotel in Las Galeras, owned by David, is undoubtedly one of the finest I've had the pleasure of visiting. Its unique charm offers a cozy and intimate ambiance that is hard to find elsewhere. David himself is incredibly welcoming and personable, making our stay even more memorable. I've already made promises to return with friends to share the experience. The private beach, stunning terrace, and breathtaking infinity pool are just a few highlights that make this place truly special. A heartfelt thank you to David for creating such a soulful retreat.

The place is amazing. The best I have seen in Dominican Republic. Fantastic view, fantastic place and a super welcoming owner. The sunset and the view from the pool is one of the best I’ve seen in my life. The private beach is also amazing. This is the place to go in Las Galeras!

The view from my room: right in front of the ocean and infinity pool

Location is very beautiful, nice view pool and relaxing place, very quiet!

Great for families, private pool, beautiful garden, and lovely cats

The rustic chalet had air-conditioning and hot water, as well as a sense of being natural cottage. The food was very good and the chef pretty much cooked. Whatever you wanted to enjoy & service was right on. Surrounded by vegetational flowers and plants it was t with a pool and a running cascade. It was all totally private I only wish that the private rock pool in front of the chalet and heated water. I’m sure that’s not a problem in the summer months.

What a break…pineapple jelly with coconut bread, smoothies, coffee with milk (in bamboo), eggs, cheese, plantanos and ham! Flowers in seashells topped the presentation! We had a choice to be served on the veranda or to have a floating tray in the waterfall pool. This place has absolutely outdone any and all competition in my book! If ever in Las Galeras, I highly recommend Chalet Tropical Bio-hotel! It will surpass any expectations and then some!

We really loved this property and our three teenagers are already asking when we can return. That is amazing considering the lodge we stayed in did not have a TV! There was a little mix-up when we checked-in and were taken to the wrong lodge, but considering we arrived earlier than expected, it was no big deal and fixed. There was a small issue with the water going out (due to construction outside the facility) but by the time we returned from the beach it was fixed. The owner herself came to explain and she was just so apologetic. We brought some of our own food because there was a small fridge and gas burner plate. No oven. One of the burners didn’t work, but we were easily able to make do with one. The kitchen area had all the basics, so just bring hot pads and paper towels. There was no blender to make frozen treats, but we asked for one and they brought it right over. We ordered dinner one night: fried fish, shrimp, pasta and all of the dishes were beautiful and delicious. We loved having our own little dipping pool and we felt like we were in our own little tropical secluded paradise. The l bungalow itself was so pretty. We ate every meal on the big porch table and even our kids hung out in the hammocks and talked and listened to music. Just remember to pack bug spray because there are mosquitos! The beach is about a 10-minute walk away and it is breathtakingly beautiful. Very peaceful and little to no waves so we just floated around. Did not want to leave.

This is our third time staying here. We love it, for the peacefulness, and for the attentiveness of the owner and staff. We did have a few issues with water in our villa, but because of recent rains and flooding, it really wasn’t a big deal and when our water went out, we simply informed the staff and they took care of it. Some of the things in the kitchen area could be replaced. The greka was broken so it overflowed every time we made coffee, one of the drawers with all of the utensils was missing a handle, and the toaster oven was broken, but these were minor inconveniences to cooking. It will not deter us from continuing to return yearly. Everything else was perfect. This was the first time we stayed in the bigger villa and we brought friends. We had plenty of space for everyone and it was wonderfully fun and relaxing. They are currently building an on-site restaurant and large pool area in the front of the property so it will be even more beautiful and we are excited to return to see the improvements.

This hotel is a true escape into nature, located deep in the jungle with open cabins that let you fully immerse yourself in the experience. The cabin we stayed in was incredibly private and unique, with a comfortable bed, a lovely private pool, and breathtaking views. The fresh air and sounds of the jungle made it an unforgettable stay. Esmeralda, the hostess, was absolutely amazing and made sure we felt welcome and well taken care of. A heads-up: being so close to nature means you’ll encounter some fascinating creatures and hear all kinds of sounds at night. We loved it—it really enhanced the adventure and connection to the surroundings.

10 of 10! True paradise we are very happy that reached this beautiful place. Great weather, our room, pool, bedroom, location and amazing El Valle beach not far from this spot. Take cash with you because generally on the island not easy to pay with card in hotels.

Loved the views, privacy, and private stone pool. We were well positioned to visit El Limon for sunrise before any crowds arrived and were able to get the whole place to ourselves.

This was definitely a top 10 on my list easy. If you love nature and being one with it this is definitely the place to be when traveling. Getting to the actual place can be tricky, however luckily a civilian gave us a ride on his motorcycle. Not too many people take cars back there, however once you're back there you can ask to rent a 4 wheeler and from there YOU'RE WINNING!! I encourage anyone to visit this beautiful place and put down the phones, and connect with your loved one.

The best thing about our stay was the connection to nature. The gardens are beautiful and the view from our treehouse was stunning. We felt so close to the birds, flowers, butterflies and stars at night. It is a unique experience, a wonderful change from a standard hotel. The host and staff are pleasant and welcoming. Breakfast in the morning was freshly prepared and delicious. It is a bit off the beaten track but the only 10-15 min by car to beautiful beaches and the El Limon waterfall.

Super cute hotel. Private swim up pool in every room and breakfast included

I had a great swim up room. The place was serene & peaceful. Breakfast was not only included but exceeded my expectations & the staff was great…

beautiful hotel setting. loved that each room had direct pool access. 5 mins walk to seafront beaches along quiet road. lots of restaurants in walking distance. Friendly staff, good breakfast and nice bar for a nightcap.

we loved the property and the central location to everything , walkable to beach and restaurants but also tucked away so that it’s nice and quiet -away from the noise and hustle bustle. Such a cute little boutique hotel, great staff, they include a lovely freshly cooked breakfast everyday! comfortable beds, complimentary Netflix and pool access right outside your balcony :)

Amazing hotel and incredible staff. The hospitality of Takuma was really enjoyable, we felt at home. We were two friends travelling together and we really appreciated the room we got which consisted of two double beds (one of them situated in a mezzanine) super modern and clean with big windows that give you your own private access to the pool. The location of the hotel is excellent, very close to the beach and town centre. Don’t hesitate in booking this place, you’ll love it, especially the amazing pool and delicious breakfast. We’ll hopefully be back!!

Since we had some important questions to ask, we contacted the hotel 4-5 times before the arrival. The communication was fast and effective and we were satisfied with the answers. When we came, we found the staff super friendly and assisting every way they could. Mr. Sergi Martorell, the manager, was very efficient in solving the problems that have arisen and answering multiple questions we had regarding our week stay in las Terrenas. He was always at the hotel, speaking with guests, inquiring about their day. The hotel is surrounded by an idyllic lush garden. The cottages (we lived in number 21) are nicely designed with a lot of beautiful pictures inside and on the porch as well as colourful furniture. The kitchen has all amenities necessary for making meals and coffee. Both bedrooms have bathrooms. The house was very clean when we arrived. The location is fabulous, a 3 minute walk to the closest sandy beach from which you can stroll long distances both directions. In many cases we were the only ones to swim in the sea in a particular spot. The cafes and restaurants can be found as close as a 5-10 minute walk. When we return to las Terrenas, we will be happy to stay at the same hotel again.

A beautiful place – the garden is absolutely stunning! Everything is in top condition, very spacious, clean, and well equipped. The staff were super friendly, and the owner was very helpful with anything we needed. We had a great time and even extended our stay! The location is perfect: just a 1-minute walk to the beach, and also close to town and many restaurants – all easily reachable on foot. With a scooter, you can explore many beautiful beaches in the area and also reach the El Limón waterfall. Highly recommended – we’d love to come back!

We LOVED Las Palmas Eco Residence. So much so, that we stayed one night longer. The garden surrounding the beautiful little houses is gorgeous, very well kept & so peaceful and quiet. Faculties are extra clean, have everything needed and the staff is very nice and helpful. The beach is literally 2 minutes by foot in a straight line, where you’ll also find the only palm tree providing shade on the whole stretch of sand. I would recommend this place 100% to anyone coming to Las Terrenas.

This is such a charming and exceptional property. Each of the bungalows are located in a lush, tropical garden, with a high degree of privacy, usually given by bushes. There are exceptional staff, who go out of their way to make their guests feel at home. There are libraries, hammocks, swings and yoga mats available in the common areas. It is not a luxurious property, but well worth spending time there. you will not be disappointed.

This place is paradise located in a very beatyfull and quiet garden . Close to the towncenter, and the nice restaurants on the beach. A 3 min walking distance to the nearest beach. The manager was exstreamly helpfull and the staff very friendly and made us feel at home. We higly recommend the cosy small houses with a local touch of colonial style and atmosphere.

Breakfast was one of the best I’ve been served with an extremely generous time span of 7:30-11:30 so we didn’t need to worry about missing it if you wanted to sleep in. The apartment was huge and had everything you need with an amazing pool area literally steps from your room and the beach a few steps further. We were worried to hear loud music from cars and scooters on the balcony and in the living room but the bedrooms were so soundproof we had amazing sleeps. The staff is the best. They can arrange pickup and tours and whatever you need. They even text me that a massage day was available and could be in the private gazebo by the pool or your room if you preferred. What a treat! I don’t understand any of the negative reviews because this place was beyond our expectations.

The hotel is in a good location to walk to placed for dinner, shopping, etc. You can also walk to different beach locations rather than go directly in front of the hotel. The breakfast was just right for us with coffee, juice, and teas, a small selection of fruits, breads/cakes, and toast. You can also order pancakes, eggs, bacon, sausage, etc. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The pool area is nice and while we were there was not busy for most of the day, which was a great treat to be able to relax enjoy the pool. The room setup was perfect for us and was well cleaned with a nice little kitchen area for us to make a meal when needed. Our pets were welcomed by the staff and loved on them as if they were their own. It is a great location to walk on the beach and you can go pretty far if you like walking. We walked between Punta Popy and Las Ballenas Beaches a few times. We will definitely stay here again.

I came back to this hotel a second time after 9 years. I stayed here for a week with my husband to kite surf. It is very close to the kite surf beach and schools (walking distance) and also right by the center of town where all the restaurants/bars are. The hotel is beautiful and spacious, nice pool area with bar, the rooms are very spacious and super clean, breakfast is really nice and is served until 11:30 a.m., no mosquitoes... we absolutely loved it and will come here again!

Huge room for a family, nice pool, close to everything and they had excursions easy to book. Even included a made to order breakfast. Only negative is a little noisy at night, but not a huge deal given how convenient it is.

Very intimate. Great location and even better staff. Great for people that want to enjoy getting to know the town, the beaches, doing excursions but also going back to a clean and comfortable room and drinks by a pool.

the property is located by the is mountain with excellent nature view , everything beautiful, nice pool and pool area with bar, cleanliness, comfort beds and beautiful room and bathroom

The hotel is very nice, clean and maintained (even the swimming pool), with armed security as it is far from the "city center", the staff is very nice, English speaking reception. The breakfast was very tasty, continental type, with the specialty coffee. It is situated to the main road, but it is quiet place anyway - e.g.nice terrace for morning/night yoga. The hotel provides complimentary potable water by the swimming pool. Payment in USD or pesos.

This hotel is so nice! Lovely rooms, great shower, clean, cosy inside, cosy outside at the pool and bar with chill music. Good breakfast, safe, private parking, easy to reach, easy to rent a scooter. I loved it and would book again immediatly

There's delicious breakfast every morning. We were also able to rent quads and scooters from the hotel which was really nice. The room was clean and staff were nice! The pool was really nice too. The front-desk staff was also very friendly, they called taxis for us. There's also a cold water dispenser outside on every floor which we really appreciate.

We loved everything - pool, people, breakfast, room (economy with fan) and dogs and cats. Everything was clean. We enjoyed our stay very much.

The hotel is right in front of the beach as it says in the description. The place has two pools so it isn't crowded. The rooms are very quiet, you don't hear the noise from outside so its very peaceful. Also it has everything you need. The place is walking distance from restaurants, supermarkets and pharmacy.

We loved the resort, very nice place in front of the beach with great pool in front! Looks very luxurious and it s not expensive

Breakfast is not included. The cafeteria has to expand its menu. They need to add more natural juices. The pool and beach were magnificent.

everything!! location to beach,restaurants and shopping. the peacefulness and cleanliness was great. And everybody loved the pools.

Beach Front, comfortable, lots of spaces, pool, attention, everything was great.

The hotel is amazing.The staff,the facilities,the location,the room,the view,the swimming pool.A very nice place to get rest

The pool, the views, the room, the food and the friendly staff

Great atmosphere, calm place, nice pool, rooms with harbour view, good breakfast

The location is stunning, featuring a pool by the ocean, with breathtaking sunrises and sunsets overlooking the sea and sailboats. The food was good.

Breakfast food was excellent, property is really pretty. A pleasant surprise. Love that pool area too

Nice modern boutique hotel, friendly service, small pool in the shade, pool bar on riff top and yacuzzi,

Everything about this place was great ! Very close to beaches, the hotel staff were amazing . The room was minimalistic yet beautiful and clean. My only two negatives were the hot water for showers was spotty although i actually find that normal in more remote /eco hotels so I wasn't really bothered by it . Also heads up literally... there are some really beautiful pieces of trees used as art work outside of the 200 level rooms. It looks beutiful just poor placement, one evening i walked out of my room and walked straight into (ended up with a concussion lol ). This hotel is beautiful to rejuvenate and reconnect with nature . We came with our children and they loved the pools , the dominican breakfast, and the beds were comfy. Playa poppy is about 10min nearby and othere beaches are also very close as well as eateries . After leaving las terrenas we took the kida to a resort for 3 days :( and wanted to leave the resort and come back here !!!

Received a surprise when the gate opened and noticed the quality of the hotel immediately. Not only has they contacted me prior to arrival but they had a fresh juice and water ready. Checkin was a breeze. Staff was outstanding in all areas. The hotel and rooms are well maintained and very clean. Food options were outstanding and rooftop pool and bar area is great at night. Will definitely return Room stocked like a 4-5 star hotel. Only downside is that the hotel should offer a beach shuttle service. You can walk or take a short taxi ride but that was the only downside. If you are going to sightsee around Las Terrenas this is a great place to stay. They kept everything natural and eco friendly

We had a wonderful experience at the Saman boutique hotel. We loved pretty much everything. We loved the decor, the attention to details and the style. Access to rooms is through a tropical heaven, with a giant tree and a pool. The furniture was modern and “pure”. The hotel is very clean, everywhere you go. The staff was very nice and very helpful. Breakfast was tasty, healthy and excellently served! We also enjoyed a delicious and well presented meal at the terrace. All in style! We loved it so much that we extended our stay by a night and lost another reservation in Santo Domingo! We strongly recommend this hotel. We travelled the world and have stayed in many upscale hotels, this is one of our favorites.

My wife and I had a wonderful experience at the Samán hotel in Las Terrenas. It is a beautiful place. The rooms are very clean and spacious, the pool and hotel areas well maintained and customer service is unmatched. The staff was exceptional in all areas of the hotel. Betania, the manager was very welcoming and fantastic. The decor is all natural throughout the hotel using the actual Samán wood. My wife and I really enjoyed our stay there. If you are in Las Terrenas, this is a great hotel to stay. We can't wait to go back.

Our hotel room was comfortable and clean. We had a kitchen with full size frig, stove, microwave and sink. Hotel supplied bottled water which was a nice bonus although the tap water was fine. Sleeping area had AC and plenty of storage area. Bathroom had a shower. All rooms had ceiling fans. TVs had a large variety of channels in several languages. Pool was large and at a refreshing temp. Plenty of chairs and a couple of umbrellas around the pool. Hotel bar next to the pool. Breakfast was included in our rate and was very good with fruit, pastries, and cooked to order eggs, bacon, pancakes. Nice sandy beach across the street and many restaurants within walking distance, many right on the beach. Only downside is out of the hotel's control. That is the noisy traffic and loud liquor store and gathering place across the street. Lots of litter comes from that place including broken bottles. There are trash receptacles but people don't seem to use them. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful and we were able to communicate fairly well despite my poor Spanish. I would stay at this hotel again giving it 4/5 only because of the surrounding traffic, noise and litter.

What a beautiful hotel... really a hidden gem with 3 bedrooms, indoor and outdoor dining table, kitchen and luxurious patio for a reasonable price. The pool and access to the beach across the street were phenomenal. The staff was so friendly and brought our drinks to us poolside. It was paradise and I didn't want to leave. I am not a resort person and I was grateful and so happy to stay in this beautiful hotel whose owners definitely pay attention to detail to make your stay comfortable.

Pool is chlorine free, they use a salt treatment for the pool, great for kids and adults. Place was quiet and peaceful.

Our stay at Albachiara was lovely! The acommodation was spacious, clean, well stocked with waters, and came with great views of the pool and sea. Pool bar was very convenient too.

Having visited Las Terrenas regularly since 2008 and watched with dismay how much development is going on taking away the natural beauty of the place especially the area of Punta Popy which is now awash with various establishments that really are just jumping on the bandwagon, it was refreshing to find that the Albachiara Hotel had managed to improve the location where it is situated which if I recall many years ago was run down and delapitated. The hotel is well managed and the staff, all the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The Hotel is very well kept and amazingly clean. Apartments are just right for what you need for a stay in the area, nothing fancy yet very comfortable and meet all your needs whether to eat in or out. The pool is beautiful and the breakfast each morning meant I did not have to worry about food at lunchtime as it was plentiful from continental to a good old fry up if you want. Attractions in the city are within walking distance, Security of the hotel is very good.Only downside is the main road at the front that because of all the development in and around the area it is a constant hum of rented motorbikes and ATV´s and late evening local neds racing up and down in their cars with pops and bangs. I was there for a few days and would certainly consider another short stay in the future. Pets (dogs) are welcome as long as well trained. Some of the apartments appear to be long term rentals or under ownership, all in all thumbs up.

My teen daughter and I spent one week at Clave Verde and had the most wonderful experience! Even before we arrived Noemi our amazing hostess had emailed me all the information I needed to get a bus from the airport and helped me figure out all our transportation needs, even offering to pick us up in Las Terrenas the local town if we needed. As soon as you arrive and are greeted so warmly by her, you know you are in the most caring and capable of hands. The whole place is like being in a tree house with views from the rooms and dining area overlooking the trees and mountains to the sea beyond. The accommodations are super clean and really well designed with rustic elegance giving you a real feeling of communion with nature. Returning to the peace and tranquility of Clave Verde after a day at the beach or an adventure elsewhere was pure joy. In the evening before dinner, we relaxed and lounged by the salt water pool, resting our eyes on the stunning view, chatting to the other guests, or to Noemi and her wonderful husband Jonathan. Breakfasts in the morning were absolutely delicious with freshly blended papaya, mango or pineapple juices and fruit bowls, followed by wonderful egg dishes or pancakes with home made jams. Noemi went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed and will help you plan and book any outing you have in mind. By the end of our trip we felt like family and are so grateful to have landed in such an oasis of peace and charm and warmth. Amazing!!!

From the moment we arrived at Clava Verde we knew we were in for an unforgettable experience. Every single aspect of our stay exceeded our expectations. The hospitality at this place was second to none. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our comfort, always greeting us with warm smiles and a genuine willingness to help. What I like to point out is that the food was simply outstanding. Chef Emelie and her staff clearly takes great pride in their craft, as every meal was great. From breakfast to dinner, each dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The variety of options catered to every taste, and we especially loved the local specialties. The place was very clean and designed very nicely. They were a few places that you could hang around and just relax. The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. One of the highlights of Clava Verde was the breathtaking view. Whether we were enjoying a meal on the terrace or relaxing at the pool, the scenery was nothing short of spectacular. Last but not least we want to thank the owner Jonathan! He was incredibly kind, cultured, and full of fascinating stories about his experiences in the Dominican Republic. Taking the time to chat with him was a true pleasure, and we highly recommend that any guest do the same—his insights and warm personality added a unique and personal touch to our stay.

This is one of the most beautiful and unique places I have ever been (and I have been in many :)). The peace and beauty of the scenery is in perfect harmony with the understated, natural elegance of the hotel. If it matters to you that it is a sustainable, green form of tourism, then this is for you. If it doesn't, then it is still for you. You still get comfortable and clean rooms, a beautiful pool, a terrace with a breathtaking view, and healthy, delicious food! Everyone is super friendly and Jonathan and Noemi are just the most gracious of hosts. Trust their suggestions and let them hook you up with a guide. You will not go wrong! Cannot wait to go back. My 11-year-old daughter can't either and that says a lot!

It was an oasis of quiet and beauty on top of the hills, overlooking the forest and ocean. As bird-watchers, we loved so many birds all around us. The owners Jonathan and Noemi were very friendly and helpful and we had many good chats. The food and drink were excellent. Sandra makes delicious meals. Try the shrimp curry! Or drunken ribs! A nice long pool for swimming. Quiet spots for relaxing everywhere. Fantastic massages from Anna! I dd intro fo Tai Chi with Jonathan in their gym, which helped stretch things out. Location is on a hill, so lots of wide stone stairs, but well well lit. Very pretty spot and amazing views. We'd go ahead for sure.

The best is the amaizing views, lovely swiming pool and very comfortable bedroom
