Pros:

Schöne, kreative Anlage mitten in der Natur, Strand wenige Gehminuten entfernt, auch andere Restaurants und Minimarkets. Konnten ohne Probleme ein grösseres Zimmer mieten da DZ doch zu klein mit Kindern.

Cons:

Die Renovationen wurden z.T etwas lieblos/undorgsam vorgenommen, was etwas schade ist, da initial mit viel Aufwand erstellt!

Varios puntos a mejorar
Pros:

Es muy original y el sitio tiene mucho encanto. La cena está muy rica y las dunas muy simpáticas.

Cons:

La originalidad y la belleza del sitio no compensan las cosas malas. El desayuno es lamentable. A parte de que es muy escaso y pobre, está racionalizado por lo que si le pides más pan, te llevas un no de respuesta. Como si estuviésemos en un campamento de verano y no en un hotel que tiene un precio para nada reducido. El segundo día en el desayuno directamente ni nos dieron pan, ni zumo. Consistió en un puñado de huevos revueltos, un café y un poco de mermelada. Más que lamentable.
Además , todos somos conscientes de que estás en un sitio donde hay bichos y mosquitos. Pero recomendaría a las dueñas por lo menos poner en las habitaciones alguna ayuda para que no sea tal masacre, pues míticas velas de citronela o parecido. Y ya como gesto, dado que estas en medio de la nada y no es fácil conseguir productos, sería un plus que haya anti mosquitos para los huéspedes. Pero en un sitio que te racionaliza el pan, pues no le vas a pedir tanto claro. En definitiva, pagas un precio premium para una experiencia más bien Low Cost en su conjunto.

Pros:

The place is AMAZING! The rooms were small bungalows, which were so beautiful and you had a huge private bathroom that was beyond our expectations. Breakfast is included and you get everything you need. The staff is very friendly and helpful and there was always free water refill, which I appreciated a lot. The place looks like a little oasis and the beach is just 4-5 minutes to walk and there were never many people there, so we had a private beach. The small town has everything you need, a few colmados and 2-3 restaurants and it's really peaceful. Perfect for an escape from reality, I will definitely go back again!

Un peu déçus par la qualité de l’hébergement nous avions quand même apprécié notre séjour en pleine nature
Pros:

L’établissement se situe dans la forêt et proche d’une jolie plage sauvage .
Le quartier est calme .
Vous êtes au bon endroit pour vous ressourcer.

Cons:

La réalité n’est pas au niveau des photos que l’on peut voir sur internet . Nous pensions passer 3 nuits dans un magnifique chalet tropical, proche d’un espace aquatique et ce ne fût pas le cas .
Attention très peu de restaurants aux alentours.

Robinson crusoé au 21 siècle. Une merveille
Pros:

Être au milieu de la nature dans une jungle. Les cabanes sont magnifiques, très propres, bons lits, salle de bain superbe, eau chaude, le côté Robinson Crusoé, la faune nocturne. Juste splendide. Le repas du soir délicieux.le petit chemin qui mène à la plage.

Cons:

Le café. On aimerait un bon expresso. Le thé, servi tiède. Une plus grande serviette de plage

Beautiful nature but shortcomings in terms of comfort, security, and service.
Pros:

The natural surroundings are truly stunning. The beach is only a 5-minute walk away, and it is beautiful. Watching the scenery from the restaurant area was also a wonderful experience. The location is very special in terms of its natural environment.

Cons:

For $160 (excluding taxes), I expected more comfort and security. The room, shower, wc were nearly open and was full of mosquitoes. If you are sensitive to insects, mosquitoes, spiders, or other wildlife, this place may not be suitable for you.

Also, the door had no lock, and when I asked about safety, I was told there was one security guard, but we never saw him. So we didn't feel secure.

There was no refrigerator in the room and not even drinking water provided. The Wi-Fi did not work in our room; although they gave us a password, there was no WIFI that we were able to connect. (There is no phone service in the area.)

If you come by car, finding the parking can be challenging since Google Maps does not show the reception or the parking area. It would be better to ask for the parking location in advance, especially since there is no phone signal there.

Amazing stay at a boutique eco lodge near the beach
Pros:

Incredible experience in a remote location that makes you feel like home. Short walk to a virgin beach, super warm staff that became friends and an enchanting design that merges with nature. The bed and pillows are great quality and loved that they have bathrobes to feel more luxurious even if you are in the jungle. Breakfast is lovely and praise for Dominican coffee!
The hotel has a restaurant serving nice dinners and cocktails in the evening. Highly recommend for a boutique lodge jungle/beach trip.
