Recommended for couples and dogs
It was an amazing experience. Went there with my wife and our dog and the dog had plenty of green area to run and play. Rooms, pool and everything else was in good condition. Breafast service was a little slow but the food was good. Recommended stay with the beach out in front and a good size pool on site.

One of the best beach spot. Quiet, beach front, not too many people. Really enjoyed our time there. The staff was also extremely friendly. Will definitely stay there again if we ever go back to Las Terranas
