What a gorgeous property! We slept in a super comfortable tree house that was so peaceful. It was the best night's sleep we have had in years. The staff was very attentive and accommodating. The restaurant was delicious. We cannot wait to go back!

property is great but the way to get there is not easy. there is 2 different way and if you take the wrong one you will be in danger so make sure to get the right one but even that one is not danger but is very difficult to get there.
Beautiful Resort in the Mountains of Paraiso, Dominican Republic. If you are visiting for the first time get the ride provided by the resort it will help you reach the place because you need a good 4x4 vehicle to get there. But it will not disappoint you!!!
Since you arrive the smiles abound with Joanna in the Front Desk-Manager of the property who will let you know about the activities available.
Josie and Jose are the persons Incharged of guiding you in the hiking, tubing and horseback riding very nice and polite.
And Finally the Chef Elvis de La Cruz in the Restaurant will surprise you with delicious meals on a daily basis
Beautiful comfortable cabins, with A/C, hot water and good beds. I will definitely return!!!
The property itself looks nice but the problem is that nobody tells you the reality of the roads to get there, I got lost , sleep in my vehicle, had our lives in dangerous and nobody answered the phone when I called for help. There’s a lack of communication between the staff the works at the property and the staff that organized your stay, they don’t give you a direct number to speak to the staff that is at the hotel. I ask to cancel my reservation after being traumatized by the experience and still haven’t heard back from them.
It’s quite an adventure to get there. Need a 4x4 vehicle, once you arrive it’s paradise.
Know that cell signal is very weal and only in the restaurant you will find a weak wifi. So can be isolated form the world a big part of your day
The places lease is amazing and is really eco. Bring a good book and your camera
There are no words to describe the beauty and peacefulness that abound in Platon Ecolodge. Fun for kids, great for adults only as well. Food was great. Staff was friendly. I do hope in the future they decide to provide WiFi as, regretfully, in the modern world one can't go more than a few days without communication. Cell phone service is spotty at best; 3G and only a couple of bars at that.
If you stay here plan to just stay here and not leave. Bring a 4X4 or you will have to pay $30 for the shuttle to take you to your car. We should have stayed only one night to experience the resort and then booked another hotel. We did have A LOT of fun it was relaxing and beautiful. The food was not bad but if you want anything extra you'll be charged. Also nearest store is far so employees will get you extra things you request at a 300 percent mark up. Our bill for the three nights after we paid for our room was almost $300. Service is great and the resort is beautiful. The resort is better for families but it's not inclusive there is a charge for everything.
property located in remote area where you need a 4x4 vehicle to reach to destination , our stay was peaceful and pleasant , staff are very friendly and helpful specially David who was vey cooperative and super helpful we had little issue with hot water but was quickly resolve will visit location again.
Amazing stay. We stayed at the tree house room and we loved it; the decoration, the bed, the bathroom; every thing was super great. The hotel is beautiful, peaceful and romantic, great for couples but also for families. The food is so good and the staff is super friendly and nice. We got a couple massage at the river and was super amazing. The prices are super cheap and Overall excellent hotel, everything is more than great. I loved it and would recommend it.
Rancho Platon is an outstanding place in Paraíso, Dominican Republic; I would love going back there. Although, there is room for improvement on information and transportation from the local town to the mountain.
