Lovely spring break
Reviewed By Vicki86001This was our first trip to the DR and we wanted to avoid the large all-inclusive resorts. My husband and I stayed 6 nights with our 14 year old daughter. We stayed in an independent villa with a small plunge pool. We flew into Santa Domingo and hired a diver, Marcos, who Sarah arranged. I would highly recommend doing this. We was an excellent, safe driver and spoke perfect English, but also was very kind in letting me practice my Spanish. He was very tolerant in listening to and answering my husband’s multitude questions. The food at the hotel was very good. We also enjoyed having a kitchen to cook our own breakfasts as needed. It is a short walk to a very lovely beach with calm waters (Playita). A short walk to restaurants and shops if you need to buy groceries or essentials. One day we took an ATV ride to Playa Rincon and Playa Bremmen. I rode with Alfredo from the hotel and my husband and daughter rode on another ATV. Would also recommend doing this day trip. Everyone at the hotel was very friendly, professional, and kind. It would serve you well to know a little Spanish, but all the staff were very patient with my limited Spanish. We felt very safe in the hotel, in the town of Las Galeras, walking to the beach and also at all the beaches. Sarah, the owner was a delight to work with. I didn’t catch everyone’s names, but also enjoyed Alfredo and Luis Miguel. Beautiful grounds and very friendly people everywhere we went.

relaxed but outdated
Reviewed By Go31905884973We left Belgium and arived on may the 22th. After a 3 hour drive we checked in. We booked premium but the next morning I noticed we did not aquire the room we requested. We got a double deluxe seaview room. Time to call our travel agent, She arived the next day and got us a bungalow It was a little larger but a bit overcome. the people are friendly but not very accomadating. The premium rooms we booked were nort available Because it was low season. The premium bar at the premium pool was closed and all premium drinks were under the brand name Classico. The restaurants were only open on certain days and this was not announced. The sportbars was closed and rundown same as the restaurant at the beach. The animation is available when there are enough people. Sadly the animation team did not anounce this and did not warn people where and when it could happen. I booked especially for this, I cannot keep stil very long. The animation was short and uninspired. Mostly they were entertaining themselves Sometimes even arguing among themselves. There is a list behind the towelservice but just with the hours. Sadly he animation team barely showed up on time. The food is limited with the same food served day after day Be there as early as possible or you might find some food missing. The food in the restaurants are just a tad better but lack flavour or seasoning. If your late some food may be served tepid or cold. Don't expect fries we only saw them once. For some reason our electricity failed twice and the signal of our television was lost as well once. Getting info at the lobby can be tiresome for in the evening the persons are inexperienced. Keycards can be a hassle they loose their magnetism very fast. had to run to the lobby at least every other day to get them to work again. Complaining seems to make them surly. Now some good things about this place. Very nice and long beach, Beautifull garden, Relaxed atmosphere. Snorkeling is limited but you can see some fish if your patient. I saw barracudas ,seaturtles seaurchins, seaanemone and some starfish. There are some crabs as well.

1,000 miles from normal
Reviewed By roberthS3218ZLVilla Serenity is where to go if you’re not into big resorts but you are into beautiful grounds by the sea, morning yoga, sipping fresh squeezed juice under the Caribbean sun, and want a break from whatever your daily grind is. The owners had a vision and the good taste to build the villa in traditional West Indies style. Rooms are airy and designed to catch sea breezes. Hammocks dangle on the balconies. It’s not hard to imagine yourself as well-to-do visitor the the Caribbean of the 17th or 18th century, albeit with a mini fridge and A/C. The small but lively town of Las Galeras is walking distance from the hotel. You can hire a boat to pick you up from the hotel and drop you off at Playa Rincon for a beach day.

It's very well set up. we had a lower room with a kitchenette, and it was very comfortable. air conditioning, good wifi.

Beware! Read Carefully! Bring cash! Be ready for the owner!
Reviewed By Greg BI have been to the Dominican Republic more then 25 times and have traveled the entire country from one end to the other. I have stayed in many resorts, guest houses, Airbnb‘s all over the island. With that said, the listing for this guest house/hotel/hostel is VERY misleading. The pictures on Priceline clearly show an air conditioner in the room. It does not say anywhere in the listing that your room will not have an air conditioner and that you will have to pay an additional fee for a room with an air conditioner. When you see pictures of a room and there is clearly an air conditioner shown, the assumption is that the room will have an air conditioner. BEWARE, no air conditioner and NO screens to leave the doors open at night. Read ALL of the fine print. And even when you read the fine print when you get to the hotel it is a different story. Upon arrival at the hotel we were told that we were required to pay cash for the entire stay. This is not listed in any part of the reservation. It clearly shows in the reservation that the amount of 50% of the reservation was charged and the other 50% would be due via a bank transfer. This is not the case though. The extremely RUDE owner of this hotel will demand that you pay him in cash. There is NO other way to pay. He claims that he would have to pay too much in tax if he took the money via bank transfer. This has never happened to me before at any hotel in the Dominican Republic. If you say ONE word to the owner, he will huff and puff and follow you around and make your stay miserable. Our bathroom was terrible with sink clogged and broken toilet seat. Slippery floor as water splashes out of the shower everywhere. When I let the owner know that there was no hot water, the man went around and knocked on everyone’s doors and asked them to run the water to see if it was hot. What I was told was that I should let the water run for five minutes and then it will get hot. Whatt?? Ridiculous! We did not want breakfast but ordered coffee. In the middle of drinking our coffee the owner stepped up to the counter and pounded on the counter and in front of everyone said “make sure you know that coffee is a dollar but coffee with milk is $1.50! I was appalled. Don’t stay here! You don’t feel safe with the owner who is clearly a little “off”. There are tons of mosquitoes and no way to get air with no screens. The bathroom doors in the rooms made such loud noise all day and night and were quite bothersome. So many nicer places to stay with owners who will come and offer you fresh fruits from their property and even invite you for FREE coffee. Unless you are French or speak/understand French and can understand what the owner says when he storms around yelling and screaming, DON’T STAY HERE!

At least a pack of sweet dogs, which is guarding the place. Rooms are simple but cozy, hosts are caring and food is traditional and delicious.
