This was a beautiful hotel, very nice and quiet. Very helpful staff. We had a very relaxing time. The food at the restaurant was great. I loved the vibes, the view of beach, the pool area. We don't speak much Spanish but the owner/manager spoke english, was very nice and helpful, and was always hanging around. He gave us some tips on some activities in the area. We ended up going to a natural pool down the road, Balneario Villa Miriam. It was beautiful.

Staff friendly and helpful. They got us a waterfall tour scheduled. Bar has great drinks. Fresh juice. Food is not great, but the views pools and common areas are wonderful. It is definitely island lodge living. No a/c but the fan and windows/sliding door open it was comfortable for us. If you’re a resort traveler you might not be comfortable here. Someone who appreciates easy living, beautiful scenery and island life this is the place. Bathroom could use a little cleaning/detailing but keep in mind this not a typical hotel, it’s a retreat lodge style.

The place didn't have a TV as stated as part of the package, they don't have AC and no fridge, the jacuzzi doesn't work, the beach wasn't cleaned up so you can't even go in the beach and this is not kid friendly place more for like adults.

Hotel is in a beautiful place. No A/C in room just fan. Great view from room. A little outdated. Breakfast was good. If you plan to stay one night is good more that I don’t think is ideal.

Víctor, Suhey and Italian staff are great. I can’t say the same to others. Cleanliness are super poor, mosquitos, cockroaches inside the room, the sheets, towels and mosquitos trap around the bed need a new one, floor fans not working properly, we stay 2 nights no one clean our room, the knob doors and sliding doors damage, we need to make noise to try to open and close it. Bedding need change have bumps, no one clean the common areas, beach stairs, need bleach everywhere, every curtain need robe desinfected and clean urgently, trash can, toilet cover broken. We never said anything because it was our first bad experience in RD. In this travel we been in Samana, Santo Domingo, Pedernales and the worst experience in Barahona. At least I need to say the property outside looks very good and Mediterranean style, need someone who can give the proper maintenance daily, someone who want to refurbish inside out, to put every detail in proper order. Looks very abandoned place. The food was good and cook at the moment, not to many options, but is ok. Make a detailing cleaning, paint and is going to look better. Hope the owners take action because is a really pontential property and pretty common areas

The external property was beautiful. Restaurant area was beautiful. Lots of mosquitos though (not their fault). The food was not very good except the bruschetta was excellent. However, our room had a lot of bugs and blood stains on the sheets. We switched rooms and there were still lots of bugs blood. We ended up sleeping in our car and were denied a refund.

Disappointed
This is my second time here. Very beautiful and clean but the service this time was not great. No lights for an entire night leaving us hot and sweating in the room without being able to sleep. Very disappointing didn’t offer any type of compensation or apology or anything. Was told that they had more clients who were paying and to keep it down( playing music by the pool respectively not loud) I obviously was a paying client also! We will not be returning!
