Top Playa Ballenas Hotel Reviews

Mosquito Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Pet friendly!"

MARINA BAY HOTEL BOUTIQUE

10/10 Excellent

"Todo en el hospedaje fue espectacular y conveniente para una estancia de relajo total. Tenía una locación muy buena cerca a la playa, restaurantes deliciosos y unas tiendas de conveniencia. La cocina y patio comunal son un gran plus! Además, tienen una tortuga que te hace compañía en cualquiera de esos lugares!"

Hotel Alisei

10/10 Excellent

"All was pleasant, clean, good and reasonably priced. One of the best in the area"

Hotel La Tortuga

10/10 Excellent

"Todo bastante bien. El personal muy atento."

AVRAMAR DUPLEX PLAYA LAS BALLENAS LAS TERRENAS

10/10 Excellent

"Let me start saying that the host, Xiomara was very nice, serviceable and accommodating. The place was beautiful, good location, steps away from one of the most beautiful beach in las terrenas."

5 STAR OCEAN VIEW DUPLEX W/ PRIVATE POOL, JACUZZI

10/10 Excellent

"I have traveled quite a bit, and after staying at this villa, I can honestly say I don’t know why anyone would choose a crowded resort over a place like this. From the moment we arrived until the day we left, every detail of our vacation felt personal, relaxing, and unforgettable. If you’re looking for luxury, privacy, and exceptional hospitality, this is the perfect place.The biggest reason this villa stands out is Veronica. She is, without a doubt, one of the best hosts we have ever had. She genuinely cares about her guests and goes out of her way to make every stay special. Before we had even settled in, she had arranged for in-villa massages so we could relax after traveling. It was the perfect way to begin our vacation. She also organized a private chef who prepared one of the best meals we had during our trip. The food was incredible, and enjoying it in the comfort of the villa made it even more memorable.Throughout our stay, Veronica was always available whenever we needed anything. She helped us with grocery shopping, gave us wonderful recommendations for places to visit, answered every question quickly, and even helped us prepare some of our meals. Her kindness and attention to detail made us feel like family instead of guests. That level of personalized service is something you simply won’t find at a resort.The location is another reason we loved this villa. It is close to the beaches, restaurants, shops,"

Exceptional sea views, 2 private pools, 6 suites, air conditioning, massage room

10/10 Excellent

"Villa looks better in person. Great location. Good host and service lady. No complaints."

5 star BEACH VIEW DUPLEX W/ PRIVATE POOL, JACUZZI

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at this property. The property is clean and secure. We enjoyed the pool and close proximity to the beach(6min walk). The communication with the property manager was easy and Ingrid is super friendly and helpful. Breakfast was complimentary but you only pay for the groceries. The chef is also available to cook lunch and dinner for a fee plus the cost of groceries. The location is one of my favorites in all of DR. I recommend to anyone that wants to get away and relax by the beach. We will definitely be staying at this property again in the future."
