We had a small, very basic room, but it was clean, and we found the bed comfortable enough. All Spanish speaking, so guests should have some basic Spanish. The location is within walking distance to restaurants and marina. The staff was pleasant.

Nice, quiet hotel

The waterfront area of Bayahibe can be quite noisy but this is in a quieter area a couple of blocks away. Good, no-frills hotel. Recommended.

GREAT value I couldn’t believe it

Incredible stay I felt very welcomed and happy here. I’m so glad I booked this place instead an all inclusive. It’s right by the beach and has everything you need at a better price. it’s clean, safe, and conveniently located. I couldn’t have asked for better. I hope to go back soon. Highlight of my trip.
