Pros: On a beautiful beach - go to the left and around the point for the most beautiful, serene swimming. Very laid back. Owners not there during our stay, but the caretakers were exceedingly friendly and accommodating. Cons: Rooms need updating, some paint at the very least.Not very clean. Beds/linens/drapes/lamps/towels - need new ones! Had only two very thin bath... More

Casa Grande is located right at one of the most beautiful beaches in Samana. The staff is attentive and helpful, and the breakfast very nice. It has a wonderful garden which is lovely for reading or hanging out. The rooms are simple and the showers a bit strange, but all clean, decent and originally decorated. I can recommend this place!

Perfect place for a relaxing stay, not to mention the awesome owner Jacky. This place will remain special in my heart forever also because we managed to rescue a friend from drowning with the help from the staff of the hotel

The place is excellent, very quiet, great location in front of an amazing beach. The food is amongst the best I have tried. The rooms are simple, but the price is excellent. Excellent place for a relaxing weekend or vacation. Good internet connection, work if you want, the garden is great.

Playa Bonita is difficult to get to but well worth it if you desire a placid, undisturbed and rustic beach. This small hotel has a wonderful relaxed ambiance and excellent value including delicious bkfst. Excellent restaurant. Rooms are simple,have privacy, but not much hot water. With my 10y old daughter, we were looking for some activity and the hotel manager,... More

They have not denied the validity of our reservation, which they had in their records. We interacted with the owner of the... More

This hotel was recommended so we made a reservation for three nights. The best (only) good thing I can say about this place is that the food is good, which is an exception in the DR. The curtains in the room were torn with holes, the fixtures in the bathroom were hanging by a thread, the towel bar collapsed when... More

This is my second review of this place. The first one was not published. Had pix and everything. My biggest complaint is that it is overpriced for what it is. It's dilapidated. I'll post pix when this get's posted.

Great place, small hotel facing the beach and coconut trees. Spacious, clean and simple rooms. Great people, warm, communicative and honest. They want to make you feel good on vacations and it works. Food is fantastic, fresh and creative! If you don't like resorts and big hotels, go there, you will find a quiet, good and friendly atmosphere. Difficult to... More
