Luisa Natividad del Carmen

From
Dominican RepublicWe 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.
