Dinner option - it was only a buffe.

Location but we wish there would have been a trail for walking in the forest.

Included dinner was not very good for vegetarians, I can’t speak for the other options though.

Prime location with beautiful view across the national park and bay. All day personal tour with Wilfred, the memorable guide. Very unique natural pool at a waterfall with a beautiful atmosphere.

No airco or fridge in the room.

An astonishing view from the room. The natural pools are refreshing and beautiful. Great food!! The tour is recommended when staying here.

The 30 min drive through the dirt road to reach the property was a bit rough for us driving a sedan, but we managed and were relieved to make it to the hotel without the car breaking apart. The natural pool area had a bit too many bees around, so it was tricky to enjoy our drinks 🙃! The bees were chasing after anything with the faintest smell of sugar. The restaurant servers could benefit from some ‘hospitality’ training but I would say the same about almost all restaurants throughout Punta Cana, outside the all-inclusive hotels. I don’t understand how a country that relies so much on tourism can have so many non-attentive servers.

Extremely charming, quiet, secluded eco hotel with amazing views. A break from the every day beach trips and all the tourist traps. We were not aware of the natural pools and we all, adults and kids in our group loved them! Note that we came early afternoon on a Thursday, so we had the entire property pretty much to ourselves. By Friday afternoon, a tourist bus came for a buffet lunch at the on-site restaurant and to spend time at the pools, so it got a bit crowded for a few hours, but it got quiet after they left again and we continued to enjoy the property until the natural pool closed at 6pm and then drove back to Punta Cana. The personnel at reception was attentive and gave us information for a tour to the Haitises (highly recommended by the way). This was by far, our favorite short trip of our entire 3-week stay in DR. I think that coming mid-week helped avoid the crowds too.

Just the access road.

Love the place, the natural pools and the surroundings and stonning views of Samana bay.

Stayed in July 2024

We loved the hotel and the staff. Note that the Sunday we were there the pool got quite crowded with folks with day passes. The evenings were perfect.

ALL the stairs and climbing. If you have any mobility issues, you're going to struggle to the pool and back to the hotel. While I also appreciate that the "natural" atmosphere is trying to be maintained, it would be nice to have some atmosphere music playing at dinner. We had to request this. Also, as a couple of people in our party retired early because they weren't feeling well, a TV in the room would be nice, as there isn't anything to do at night. We entertained ourselves with music, playing dominos, cards with family and drinking wine, but other than that, there's nothing.

The surroundings are stunning, the natural pools and waterfalls beautiful. The rooms are very clean, comfortable and unique. The restaurant really nice and the food delicious and well priced. The staff are wonderful, polite and very accommodating.

Somewhere to just sit and read a book with a nice view would be nice.

We are a visibly queer and trans couple and the staff was very friendly and unobtrusive. Beautiful views. Access to the natural pools is beautiful, nobody there during the weekdays. Hiking with the hotel's tour guide was great.

The food was not as good as it used to be in the past. But maybe because there was no buffet, due to the very low occupation.

Unique hotel in a very nice location

Stayed in September 2023

The chairs in the room are not comfortable, except the rocking chair, and all tables are very low. It's very difficult to work.

The view and the natural pools are awesome. Also the tour was very interesting.

Stayed in August 2023

the road to get to the hotel is very rough be prepared.

This location is a short walk downhill from the beautiful pools. it is more peaceful for me worth the walk. the location to the National park is amazing and allows for excellent tours of the park via foot, small boat or kayak. no worries about making reservations the guides come every morning to the hotel.

I was expecting a porch but my room did not have any.

The view was excellent The decor was beautiful

Stayed in July 2023

Hard bed Our deluxe room shared a door with another room and we could hear absolutely everything going on there The restaurant pricing was confusing - sometimes à la carte (affordable), sometimes buffet (pricey)

Amazing view from the room Helpful staff On-site dining was tasty The hotel offers tours of Los Haitises and kayak rentals Very quiet at the end of the season (late April) Loved the secluded feeling

Stayed in May 2023

The menu could be more appealing

We are returning guests to this property is a great opportunity to get away from the bustle and hustle of the busy beaches of bavaro! We love the rio and its falls. The menu could be more appealing, but great place to reconnect.

The walls were very thin, so on the weekend when it was busier, we could hear the neighbors talking and then snoring all night! I would highly recommend going during the week if possible.

The location was beautiful and the pools were simply amazing. It was peaceful during the week, the staff was great, and the room was fine. No A/C but a good fan, great shower water pressure, shampoo and soap included. Restaurant was good- it’s all a la carte so keep that in mind when you order!

The eco friendly environment.

Stayed in March 2023

The towels could be refreshed. wasn't clear if we could take our car up the back road to load our luggage when we left as there were several steps to navigate for our early morning departure.

Loved our view and the water features of the property. The hammock on the balcony was a bonus and it was very quiet and serene. The food was also excellent.

Stayed in February 2023

The menu was quite limited in choice. (It also seems to be very close to that of the hotel next door, so you don't get more choice by going there. There is a tour guide who attends the hotel in the mornings, but in our case he could not ensure availability for the day we needed (so we booked elsewhere). Shame. The room was sparse of furniture: Bed, bedside tables, one hammock and several dining chairs. Not much for US$75 per night, but the location and view almost compensated.

The hotel has a distinctive style and is very spacious. The view from the room over the valley was amazing. The staff were very helpful. The food from the restaurant was appetising.

Stayed in March 2023

Not all staff spoke English, but it was still possible to make us legible We were there during weekend/national holiday, there were a lot of external guests in the brother resort Paradios, was quite loud and made it impossible to enjoy the nature pools

Very exclusive location, overlooking the nature reserve

Stayed in February 2023

Apart from the pools, and a few hours in Los Haitses park, there isn’t a lot to do. but if just sitting by the pools is what you’re after then it’s perfect

beautiful place, stunning waters, and building. Lovely bedrooms with balcony and hammock.

The taxi von sabana de la mare was super expensive! Maybe get in contact with the accommodation to arrange a Taxi in advance.
