The cleanest, biggest and best rooms I’ve found but I would recommend renting a scooter or car as it’s a bit of a hike to town

Everyone here was extremely welcoming and cheerful to get to know.
If you’re looking for a quiet, relaxing, peaceful place to stay, this is the place to be.
Just steps from the beach where you can swim, surf, kite, or just soak up some sun.
I will definitely stay here on my next visit.

I like the fact that it’s a small hotel, just 8 rooms. Breakfast is great. You can walk to Encuentro Beach. The host, Ruben, is great. We received a personalized service. The staff is very nice. Rooms are modern, minimalist, soundproof. I will be back.

I am in love with this place! There are only 8 rooms so the hospitality and vibe is top-notch. Expect a quiet, blissful sleep as it is set back from the main highway. The rooms and comfortable and modern, and you can see palm trees from windows in your shower! The free breakfast was superb (get the Dominican option) and beach is just a few steps away. I highly recommend this place, even if you are not a surfer like myself, you will love it.
