Tolles Familiengeführtes Hotel, die Ausstattung ist überall mit viel Liebe zum Detail umgesetzt, in Form von naturbelassen Hölzern und Blumen. Das Frühstück wurde ebenfalls mit viel Liebe zubereitet und schön angerichtet serviert. Des weiteren bietet das Hotel einen Scooter verleih, Wäsche Service und Geldwechsel.

Nichts zu beanstanden.

The place was just as beautiful as the pictures state. The staff were friendly and all of the surroundings clean. The bed was comfortable and air condition was working well. The breakfast was tasty and fresh. Coffee tasted amazing! Room had good lighting and in the bathroom there was warm water and even an European electricity socket (not common in the DR).

The sounds from the nearby road were a bit noisy, but understandable because of the location. It was still much more calm than other parts of Las Terrenas. Could be fixed with ear plugs though!

Good

We originally booked 4 nights and left after one due to the poor isolation of the rooms. The hotel is located on a very noisy road (cars, bikes but also trucks going on the many construction sites in Las terrenas and honking no matter what the hour is). In addition, the generator started in the middle of the night, keeping us awake for a considerable amount of time (imagine a lawnmower in your room). As a result, we slept approximately 2hours and decided to leave at the first possible occasion. These were the last nights we were spending in Dominican Republic and did not wanted to suffer sleep deprivation before going back to our country (holidays are meant to rest, aren’t they?). We left for another hotel (Casa colibri), indeed a bit more expensive but directly on the beach (in comparison to balata that is far away from the restaurants and beach) and in a very calm area. Note that it is not possible to cook at Balata, and there are no restaurant in or near the hotel. We paid 3 nights for nothing but were really not keen to reiterate the experience of the first night. When we announced that we were leaving, the staff did not really seem to care

location and clean

the noise and the light in the room makes you wake up very early, not a place to rest, but for a quick long and fun weekend, is the perfect place

Lovely family-run boutique hotel, spotlessly clean, nice pool & gardens, serving the most wonderful breakfast! Melanie was very helpful in providing advice and helping us organise an excursion.

Only downside was it was a good 20-30 mins walk to restaurants, so ended up driving to eat out

Friendly and helpful staff, nice rustic decor, lovely swimming pool, good breakfast.

The distance from the town centre (20 minutes walking), though not problematic during the day. The room/WC would benefit from some hooks on the walls/doors to hang clothes/towels.

the general look cool pool drinking water available nice common rooms private safe parking

high drink prices bad curtains no closets for clothes the shotgun security man wasn’t friendly no fridge in the room little to no atmosphere due to bar always being closed too small double beds
