Pros:

De surflodge is de meest fantastische plek die we bezochten in DR. De kamer was mooi ingericht, met veel licht en voldoende faciliteiten om te koken. De workouts en yoga is zeker een aanrader, het personeel was vriendelijk en het ontbijt heerlijk. Het restaurant is wat prijzig, maar de kwaliteit is dan ook uitmuntend.

Cons:

Niets
