10 Lodges in Caribbean: Best hotel deals for 2023

April 22, 2023 Misti Hsu

Lounging on smooth Caribbean sands can be more restorative than the most luxurious spa treatment. Stretches of white and black beaches spill into the coolest, bluest waters of your dreams. A Caribbean island is the perfect literal jumping off point for a snorkeling or dive excursion, and the sea life seems just as welcoming as the islanders themselves. Sipping a tropical a cocktail while the sun paints the sky in shades of tangerine, you’ll ask yourself: “Is this heaven?”

Wonderful in every way

Reviewed By Carayani

The staff were all warm, smiling and professional in everyway. Cudo's to the General Manager who has assembled and directed a lovely staff that attended to our every need. The room was perfect in it's simplicity combined with cleanliness and thoughtful attention to everything a vacationing individual might need during their stay, as exemplified by their kitchenette which had everything one might need to create a meal. The beach and the sea were WONDERFUL! Serene, clean, and the sea was a dream to swim and lounge in, feeling safe and protected. Can't wait to return next year and hope that my favored friends will join us.

THE BEST TIME I EVER HAD IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

Reviewed By eliannaa22

My family is originally from Dominican Republic and I wanted to stay away from the tourist-y area (especially during COVID). My boyfriend and I are really into nature and tranquility so this place was the best for distance from major tourist areas but close to activities (or at least offered some). Tubagua Ecolodge worked with us during the airport pick up, accommodated the meals we missed (because we were out) and reserved horse back riding with taxi service! The ecolodge offers a hike to a private natural pool where the hike was breath taking and the guide was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. All of the staff was extremely nice and the food was authentic and delicious every single time. I liked that there was no menu, all visitors were served more or less the same delicious food but every meal everyday is different (and healthy!) The purpose of this ecolodge is to be close to nature and relax, I loved every second of it.

Amazing time

Reviewed By traceycJ3544GM

Not my first Bahamas trip, favorite place so far will definitely be coming here every year. Our party of 9 stayed in two of the villas side by side, joined by family that came in on a Catamaran and docked in the marina. Staff is great, friendly and accommodating. Location is beautiful secluded area with great support from resort amenities- nice restaurant with varied menu for breakfast, lunch and dinner overlooking the Caribbean sea with gorgeous sunsets and fantastic cocktails. Sunset beach is steps from the restaurant and a great place for a leisurely ocean swim. Worth getting snorkel equipment for the week at OIO onsite or buy it at the dive shop also onsite. Everywhere you go you have coral and fish to enjoy. We rented a boat for the week and at the last minute added having a captain. SO WORTH IT. Captain Mario took care of everything and knew all of the best snorkeling, dive fishing, bottom fishing spots. Had LOTS of fresh fish each day for dinner and fished 5 out if seven days. Great times grilling out by the back verandas in the evening as the sun sets and enjoying the friendly atmosphere of the marina. Fourth hole - just down the coastline - quick 5mins in car or 20min walk -is amazing. Fantastic coral heads with so very many fish. Shallow parts and deeper parts to suit all comfort levels. Trip to the sandbar was fun, saw a giant starfish. Don’t miss Friday nights at the outside bar with the band- great fun! The Market is an unusually well stocked grocery store on the island that delivers - we had food for the week waiting in our villas when we arrived and same day delivery as we needed to fill in. Loved that the villas are equipped with washer/dryers. There were TVs in the villas, who cares, didn’t turn them on once. All in all great way to enjoy unspoiled Eleuthera.

Fantastic beach holiday at BOARDWALK VILLAGE

My sister & I spent a few days here ....back in March. Had a super time. Most gorgeous beach along the 7 mile strip. The owners Richard & Sion were fantastic. There was nothing that was too much trouble for them to do for us. Rooms were clean & spacious. Gardens were well maintained. Both themselves & their staff made every effort to ensure we had a great time & I can assure you a great time was had by all. Looking forward to be back soon.

We can definitely recommend this Casa! Misleidys, Gustavo and their kids are very welcoming and friendly. Gustavo arranged an amazing transfer from the Viazul bus station to his house with his own “limusina”, he’s a really funny and helpful man. Misleidys is very caring, warm and always available to give tips on what to see and do in Trinidad or to arrange a taxi or trip. She speaks very good English, is open, and ready to talk about Trinidad, her family and life in Cuba. The breakfast was the best we had in Cuba, rich and served in the garden. Dinner was also amazing. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable.

Mammaloe's

When you are looking for peace and tranquility, somewhere far away from your hectic daily life, then staying at Mammaloe’s is the answer. Tucked away in the heart of the beautiful island of Aruba, in breathtaking natural surroundings, you will find the three gipsy wagons of Mammaloe's. Each wagon is air-conditioned and everything you need for a great holiday is present.

It was a creative stay with also nice and entertaining conversations during early breakfast ...

Reviewed By D1361VJinfo

The Mammaloe team is friendly, supportive and helpful during my full week of vacation in the mits of Santa Cruz nature where you hear the chuchubi and trupial sing. There is a lot of things to do with all kinds of interesting trips and activities that you'll get explained on the first morning by the team. Breakfast is fine and eating together with others is pleasant and brings a relaxed atmosphere. Do not forget to walk the trail in Sabana Basora! Heartily recommended!

Very nice typical Cuban casa for staying. Our hostess was wonderful, very nice, helplful, and our room had the beach right in front. A total paradise. Don't get fooled by the brownish waters, the beach and the sea are wonderful. I had one of the best meals ever, they prepared a couple of lobsters for us, just by the sea. Amazing.

We arrived the day before New year and were welcomed by our hosts who were fantastic. They made us feel right at home. The room was extremely clean and very comfortable. Our breakfasts were fantastic and set us up for the day. We got on very well with the hosts and have nothing but praise for what they do. We would recommend this place to anyone visiting Sancti Spiritus. It is central to all places and you will be made to fell right at home.
