Everything was great. Both managers very friendly and helpful. Location is amazing. Palms, overgrown jungle like area, beach area quite empty most of the time, old style building, good food. You will hear the ocean and birds singing day and night.
It is not perfect, but the small things do not affect the overall satisfaction. The only thing that I would mention is: the ocean waves brings back all the plastics and garbage we throw in it so you will see a lot of this in some areas on the beach.

The hotel is a small boutique hotel on a secluded part of a gorgeous beach. The grounds are beautifully landscaped with different palms and other tropical plants. The rooms were in bungelows and were spacious with delightful appointments. The bed was a king-sized, four poster, canopy bed. There was a clean pool and a jetted plunge pool, both at ambient tempurature. The beach had coral sand and was secluded, we had the whole beach to ourselves. We had grilled salmon and chicken for dinner and both were prepared and seasoned to perfection. The included breakfast was expansive and very good with fresh fruits, cheeses, bread and spreads, eggs to order and choice of juices, hot cocoa, and coffee. The service was very attentive and friendly, eager to please. It was very romantic and we highly recommend the hotel.
Because the hotel is on a secluded section of the beach, it was hard to find. The last section is on a road that had a no trespassing barrier. We eventually went around it and a few hundred yards down the road we found the hotel. It was the only part of our experience that wasn't nearly perfect.

Location and the hotel is small and personal. Staff was friendly and personal. Would have liked to see a serving staff that was a little knowledgeable with English. However everything worked out.
Kitchen did not have some items that the displayed on the menu, just annoying. The reservation system needs improvement. Difficult to reach them via phone.

A fantastic boutique hotel resort; great rooms, great service and a great location.
It’s a great spot to just relax and not be busy with anything in particular. Ocean is great, beach is stunning, rooms are spacious and comfortable; it’s not crowded and it’s just perfect for a couple to get away.

Spectacular breakfast, big selection with pleasant service with unbeatable views of the pool, gardens and ocean. You have many places to relax and unwind on the immaculately kept hotel and grounds. It is serene here yet, a short walk brings you to Macao Beach. The best part of the stay was undoubtedly the staff who all welcomed us with genuine warmth and hospitality. Can't imagine staying anywhere else.
I can't think of anything we did not like. I wish we could have stayed longer!

Well maintained and manicured. Rooms were just perfect. Chef Elias prepared some excellent delicious meals that we are still raving about. Our waiters Jerry, Rosie and Maria made sure all of our requests were taken care of. The beach was awesome. If you’re looking for a getaway that is private, away from all the noise, just you and your better half, this is it. We had a wonderful time in paradise… can’t wait to go back.
Everything was perfect

Beautiful, secluded, private property. Excellent breakfast! Comfortable bed. Very accommodating staff
Beach in front of the property was not swimmable , you will need to walk about 7-10 minutes along the shore for a better beach. Jacuzzi was not working

Sam, the manager and one of the executive chefs, went above and beyond to ensure that my dad and I felt truly at home during our stay in Punta Cana/DR. Sam took the initiative to arrange memorable excursions for us multiple times throughout the trip (coordinating pick-up times and locations, packing breakfasts/snacks before leaving) and upon learning of my passion for cooking, Sam generously offered to provide me with a personal cooking lesson, showcasing a level of hospitality that exceeded all expectations. Throughout our stay, Sam remained effortlessly accessible through WhatsApp, ensuring that our needs were met promptly and seamlessly. His unwavering dedication to client satisfaction and willingness to go the extra mile set this resort apart from others. Sam's personalized attention and genuine commitment made our experience exceptional, and we are grateful for the outstanding service he provided.
Being the sole guests at the resort during our stay, my dad and I had the unique chance to exclusively interact with Sam and his exceptional staff. Despite the limited number of guests, we were delighted to get to know Sam and his team, enjoying every conversation and interaction. The personalized attention and warmth extended by the staff made our experience truly delightful, turning what could have been a quiet stay into a memorable and engaging time at the resort.

The property is off the beaten path, which allows you to have a private and serene experience. Sam, the manager, is an absolute delight! He makes you feel at home as soon as you arrive, but without impeding on your relaxation. The pool and hot tub temperatures were perfect and the walking path down to the beach made this stay accessible for me (traveling with knee injuries). There is 24 hour security, so you cannot access the road or gate to the hotel unless security confirms that you're supposed to be here. I stayed here on 2 different nights (different reservations) and would absolutely choose the small, quiet experience over the large resort a few mins away (I had a wedding at the big resort in between stays). I preferred the 1st floor corner room (Pinioneres) to my upstairs room near the kitchen (Mariposa), as the bed was more comfortable and I experienced less noise. The price difference was $10 USD for a king vs. double queen.
1 big thing, 2 small things: Big: the Mariposa room on the 2nd floor, near the kitchen has a major design flaw- the large bathroom window (closed with shutters) is directly in front of the toilet- you can hear the kitchen staff and they can hear you! I was surprised by this, but didn't complain for my 1 night stay- however, this was unpleasant and also woke me up, as you can hear the kitchen staff preparing breakfast for their morning start time. Small: - The hot water in the shower takes times to warm up, especially in the evening- be patient, it's not broken - the kitchen may not have some of their advertised menu options, have a 2nd choice
