Playa Dominicalito

Another wonderful stay! The property was as lovely as ever and staff is superb! I love returning here each time. We had 90-minute massages that were incredible, I was so relaxed that I actually fell asleep. Can’t wait to be back there again!

This is a barely discovered gem, a rare destination that will leave you with lifelong memories. We stayed here 9 years ago, and returned this summer. The rainforest location is unique. We stayed in a treehouse, with frequent visits from spider monkeys and seemingly endless species of birds. We partook for a second time the riverboat tour through the local rainforest, up through the Nicaragua border. We saw spectacular macaws, toucans, and numerous other bird species. We encountered crocodiles, circling vultures over cow pastures, a green river snake swimming at the town boat dock. We saw other monkey species hanging out in the trees, iguanas… But perhaps most memorable to us was the genuineness of the Eco Lodge staff. Many are local, and share with us their pride in their community. Their true warmth allows us to experience the rainforest, not as a visiting tourist, but as a proud local. The guides are wonderful! They are smart, engaging and passionate. Even on our return boat ride across the river to the parking area, the staff member took a slight detour to point out colorful macaws eating fruit in a tree on the riverbank. We came with our family, there were tourists of all ages, from young children to older retirees. Our binoculars and telephoto lenses got quite the workout! While we are not professional birdwatchers, the diversity was remarkable. And, we found fellow tourists to be grounded, appreciative of life and the opportunity. Thank you staff!!!

Las habitaciones las entregan cuando ellos quieran, casi a la 4 pm, la variedad de comida por ejemplo en el almuerzo solo pollo asado y carne de cerdo, la de res o algo de mariscos eso en la vida, hay partes que huelen muy mal como a tanque séptico como por ejemplo en el are del bar húmedo, no hay variedad de cocteles y los que ofrecen sabe más rico un fresco de sirope, el personal mal humorado con una atención al cliente pésima, poco personal al atender por eso hay que hacer largas filas, el bar o los bares los habrán hasta las 11 am, y no importa que no den licor entendible pero con ese sol y calor que hace desde las nueve am hasta las 11 am está uno deshidratado, para que puedan ofrecer algún refresco o cóctel sin alcohol o den aunque sea agua, pero no dan nada, a y para terminar le indican que la hora de salida es a las 12 md y de una vez le indican que no puede almorzar, solo cuentan con una mesa de billart y hay q pagar por usarla, la verdad enserio para lo que uno paga es demasiado malo, hace muchos años fui y no era así, ahora solo quedó el nombre del Hotel Barceló Tambor, pero ya pasó a la historia
