+ We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this exquisite property set on a former cacao plantation. It is an ideal, intimate retreat for complete relaxation and tranquillity, made even more special by the exclusive setting of just six apartments. The hotel is located in the charming and typically Dominican village of Las Tarranas, within easy walking distance. Both the apartment and the entire estate were immaculate, offering exceptional comfort and meticulous attention to detail. The beautifully landscaped garden features a fireplace that the owners light in the evening upon request. Enjoying a fine glass of wine by the open fire, surrounded by lush greenery, is wonderfully romantic and delightfully surreal in a tropical climate. Carlo and Leslie (both from the Netherlands, with Leslie having Dominican-Dutch roots), together with their team, provided outstanding hospitality and were attentive to every detail. Breakfast was exceptional, and the on-site restaurant deserves special mention for its excellent cuisine and remarkably reasonable prices. Every aspect of our stay exceeded our expectations. This is a truly special place that we would highly recommend, and we very much hope to return. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this exquisite property set on a former cacao plantation.

+ De camino desde Santiago a Las Terrenas elegimos este hotel para alojarnos una noche y no tener que hacer el viaje de una sola vez. Nos llevamos una gran sorpresa al entrar en este precioso resort completamente nuevo. Y qué maravillosa acogida y atención por parte y del personal de los dos propietarios que viven en una casa de estilo escandinavo en el propio terreno. Un apartamento grande y hermoso, una bonita piscina con bar y un precioso y romántico jardín, creado en lo que antiguamente fue una plantación de cacao. Las Tarranas es un pueblo verdaderamente típico dominicano en el campo, donde el tiempo parece haberse detenido en el siglo pasado: tranquilo, sencillo y encantador. Es increíble que este pequeño pueblo tenga una joya tan nueva como este apartotel. El restaurante del resort ofrece una carta muy sabrosa y con precios razonables. Nos quedamos una noche más de lo previsto y sin duda volveremos. Todo simplemente TOP.
− Todo nos ha gustado más que bien. El entorno es lo más cercano a la verdadera y auténtica República Dominicana. Este hotel es único en su entorno y en la provincia de Duarte. Nada nos ha decepcionado en absoluto. Todo ha superado nuestras expectativas. Y conocemos la República Dominicana desde hace más de 15 años !

+ Samen met mijn man hier geweest....we hebben echt de juiste plek uitgekozen, als je echt het cultuur wilt leren en zien hoe de locals leven dan is deze locatie perfect, zoveel mooie natuur overal om je heen je weet gewoon niet waar je moet kijken...de service in het hotel is uitstekend...je kan op elk moment eten en drinken bestellen aan jou de keuze of je op je kamer wilt eten of in het restaurant...het eten in het hotel is heerlijk er werkt een topchef in de keuken die lekker vers alles maakt wat je besteld van de kaart...schone hotelkamer die elke dag schoongemaakt word als je dat wilt...wil je dit niet kan je gewoon van tevoren aangeven. Elke dag schone handdoeken. Hotelkamers zo een mooie inrichting, je komt hier echt tot rust...en de tuin van het appartement daar moet je echt even doorheen wandelen ...het doet wonderen voor je innerlijke rust prachtige tuin 10/10. Over gastvrijheid... er is in het hotel ook een poolbar....hier kan je lekker chillen in het zwembad terwijl je van een lekkere cocktail geniet...ook een perfecte plek om leuke foto's te maken.....de heren Lesley en Carlo stellen je zo op je gemak en zorgen ervoor dat je alles krijgt wat je nodig hebt...ze vragen constant of je wat nodig hebt of dat alles naar wens is. Een paar minuten van het hotel heb je een prachtige strand waar je lekker kan zwemmen drinken eten heerlijk...genoeg winkels heel dichtbij het appartement voor alles wat je nodig zou hebben. Kortom een geweldige plek om te genieten van dominicaanse cultuur natuur en gezelligheid service en kwaliteit, Ik ben nu al 2 weken weer thuis en wil al terug ...zo veel heb ik genoten 💃🥰
