Recently, I was vacationing in the Dominican Republic. I had made online reservations thru PRICELINE.COM to stay at the HOTEL HAMILTON in Boca Chica. That was a disaster the very moment I arrived! I needed a "Plan B". Enter CALYPSO BEACH HOTEL! Just 5 minutes away from the worst hotel experience I've ever had; the Calypso Beach was a blessing!... More

We arrived late and were glad to find a hotel not too far from the airport, as no services were available fot hotels at 10 PM at the airport. We had previously called the Quality Hotel close to the airport, which tried to rip us off with a rate of $183/night, saying nothing else was available. For two, we paid... More

Doing business in nearby Santo Domingo, I have stayed at Hotel Calypso several times and have gotten to know the staff there very well, as I do know Spanish and can talk with the locals. So folks, here's the Real inside scoop! This area is rife with prostitutes, and this hotel is a favorite place for them because the hotel... More

It wasn't all that bad of a place for a 1 star hotel. They have a free continental breakfast everyday that isn't bad. The price was comparable to other 1 star hotels in the area. When I told them that my room had been robbed they didn't do anything and I didn't expect them to. It was my mistake in... More

This is a cheap hotel. If you pay in cash, you can get it even cheaper. It's very basic. However it is quiet, very safe, has a pool you can use anytime, and close to the beach, bars and restaurant. The girls in Boca Chica like it, and that's all that really matters. Lock your valuables in the free safe... More

The Calypso is perfect for single folks traveling to Boca Chica looking to spend less money on a hotel. If you're not concerned with having a restaurant open throughout the day and a bunch of fanciness, you'll be fine. Put it this way, if you're in Boca Chica and you don't spend money for a higher end hotel, there seems... More

A straight up Zero. We had to run the water for at least 10 minutes before it got hot. The Tv's are old al least in room 218. The floors had no rugs the shower curtains was dirty plus the food suck. Really and truly it's the worst hotel ever.... Sorry for smashing u all but it's the truth I... More

I stayed at this hotel in October 09. I felt very safe during my stay, the rooms were clean and when I needed assistance the staff was ready to help. The free breakfast was great and the waiters and waitresses were very friendly and eager to serve what ever pleased your taste. Security was good and there was no problem... More

Wow! What a crappy poopy hotel. We intended to stay at least three weeks enjoying the tranquility of Boca Chica, Dominican Republic. We were very wrong. First of all the Dominican Republic is way over rated, but let's get back to the hotel Calypso. My wife, son, and I had quite a horrible experience. The rooms were nasty. Poopy nasty... More

We stayed at the Hotel Calypso in Boca Chica. Someone I work with recommended this hotel because it was away from the tourists, and it was quiet. Yeah, dind't know it was 2 hours away from where we landed in Punta Cana! The hotel was not the cleanest. Lots of grime in the bathroom. The bathtub leaked, and the if... More
