“Great place, quiet, and 1 minute walk to the beach!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 November 2011
3
people found this review helpful

We stayed here for 5nights on "Luna" room (one of the cottages that had 2 rooms). The "Hotel" is actually composed of ~15 cottages and situated across the street from the las terrenas beach. The units are clean and simple. The price is fair. But the two assets would be quiet and security. Quiet meant, no motoconchos zooming around and guaguas honking all day. Not to mention not much rosters waking you up at 3am! The place also has a security. We didnt understand the necessity of this until I came up with several news regarding rape, burglary, and robbery especially against tourists at las terrenas. I also learned more about this upon talking to people who lives in las terrenas. The security is actually very professional as he walks every night from the start of his shift at 7-8pm until the next morning. A few times I was at the balcony hanging out just drinking until 3am and still saw him walking around! (in some countries, security people would just sleep during night shifts!). I saw the security person every night doing a great job. And the reason why Im giving him a lot of credit!

The only minor issue was the internet connection and tv. Internet was slow (maybe due to being overwhelmed by way too many users) and tv reception was just complete haze. Otherwise I would have give this place 5stars.

“great!”

The all place was really nice, beautiful gardens giving a real feeling of tropical life. 30 mts from the beach, colourfull plants and birds. I stayed a couple of days sharing the cottage with two friends and I didn't wanna leave! Very clean. A toilet, small kitchenette with a small fridge..... good enough!
I love it and if I go back to Las Terrenas I will be back there. Very good price too!

“In Las Terrenas, not Santo Domingo”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 September 2011
2
people found this review helpful

I really liked this place. It is very cheap, however, you wouldn't be able to tell if you hadn't payed the bill. There is someone at the desk to help you all night, a cheap breakfast option in the morning, and it is very close to the beach. They are pretty relaxed about when you pay and check in. Power can sometimes go out, but they have backup lights that run off battery. Overall, this is a great place to use as a base camp. Las Terrenas has a lot of eating, beaching, activity options that will make you want to get out of any hotel you stay in.

“Nice place near ocean”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 January 2011
3
people found this review helpful

Nice place! Small clean "Dominican style" rooms with tiny bathroom in a middle of tropical garden with hundreds of flowers and birds.

Good:
just 1100 pesos for room per night (on high season);
booking without standard 50% prepay;
20m from ocean;
200m from bus stop;
polite manager (or owner) answering on emails very fast;
armed guards at night;
2 cats live near reception; :)
next door to hotel are Pizza Coco place with good pizza and Big Dan's Cafe with excellent hamburgers.

Ok:
towels are clean but not white;
ceiling fan instead of air conditioner;
walls are thick and you can hear anything around house, but since it's absolutely silent at night and mostly at daytime, this is not a problem;
small cafe near reception works only at morning, but coffee is good!

Bad:
weak WiFi signal, it's not covering all territory (but near reception it's good).

Will definitely stay at this place again!
