I was delighted with the unique experience of showering discreetly in the open air where the ocean breeze flows through. However, the standard rooms seemed a bit outdated, especially when compared to the charming sea view accommodations. Overall, the stay was a mix of tranquility and neglect.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, located just 15 minutes from Las Terrenas center. The rooms are huge, about 70 sqm, very cozy, and set in a big well-kept green surrounding, creating a charming and romantic ambiance. A floor lamp in a corner would have been a perfect addition.
