As the reviews indicated, excellent location. Good bodega across the street, 5 minutes from public beach, Western Union, car rental , seafood vender 3 minutes. The big supermercado and 2 smaller also 5 minutes away walking. The kitchen was good. We bought 2 kg thumb sized Samana shrimp, 1600 pesos. Ate shrimp and fresh salad for all 5 nights. Excellent!!! Very nice well kept hotel with beautiful trees/foilage.

Bad start. The reception guy, seems to be main caretaker at hotel, confirmed the booking price with me than when I paid by VISA he tried to scalp me 3000 pesos ($75 cad). If I had not have checked the receipt, I would have been scalped. Guy did not provide receipt. Took full date and 3 requests to get a receipt. Previous Italian owned hotel in Romana did not provide receipt and I overlooked that. After we returned home, Booking contacts me and said the hotel advised we were a no show. Obviously to get our Visa booking in addition to the cash I paid for room. Fortunately I had pictures and a dedicated taxi who took us to, and picked us up from hotel. Do not trust Italian hotels now. Get a receipt and protect it!!!!!

I loved the great support from the super friendly apart-hotel management (husband and wife team) who really helped us out, firstly to find local trips that were just what we were looking for and also allowing us a late check out on the day we left. The breakfast was great with cooked or non-cooked options and delicious fresh fruit. The apart-hotel is very conveniently located on the edge of the small bustling town which has a really authentic Dominican Republic feel. The beach/harbour is only 5-10 mins walk away and there are a lot of great bars and restaurant offering typical DR menus or international options. The tours to the amazing Saona Isand leave from here, tourists are bused in every day from the Punta Cana resorts. Would definately recommend a trip to the National Park (Nature Reserve) offered by Go Dive Bayahibe.

Nothing to dislike - we were very happy with everything about our stay.

Great free breakfast. Fresh fruit, some local sweet breads and coffee were decent enough to start the day. Option to get hot items at a low cost is available from the restaurant. The owner was very nice, as others had mentioned. Let us park in the lot for a few hours after checking out, at no extra charge, while we returned from the Saona Island excursion. Very nice gesture and what hospitality is about. Good location and only 5 minutes on foot from where all the excursions depart.

The AC was old, but honestly, in concert with the fan it did the job. The bathtub drain was a bit slow, but we forgot to tell the staff.

The location is perfect, 5min walk to the centre where you can get a boat to the island of Saona, few minutes to the restaurants and bars (very loud in the evening) in the centre and 15min walk to the local beach - which is ok to sunbath and swim. Room is simple with fridge, table and coffeemaker. It is clean, beds are perfect for sleep (but bring the earplugs, because the cocks in the village start to sing very early in the morning). The host is great, she speaks only spanish, but we managed to understand each other anyway. She makes breakfast with coffe, fruit and cookies. There is safe free parking in the fenced yard. Perfect for 1-3 night stay in Bayahibe.

Great value for money, absolutely clean, very nice garden, amazing staff and owner, they are really nice people, helps you in everything. There is cleaning service and clean towels every day! Nice breakfast with fruits and coffee. Very good location, nice village, absolutely safe! You can experience here the real Dominican lifestyle, you can see how the locals live their days in Bayahibe. Public beach is approx 10 minutes walk, the port is 3 minutes walk with lots of nice bars and restaurants, great sunset spot (also starting point of Saona trips). Supermarket is very close! If you need hairdryer or some kitchen equipment, just ask at the reception :)! They even prepared a surprise for my Birthday because my parents contacted them to ask their support. This was so nice :)!

All was great, nothing bad really. I highly recommend this place! Thanks again for everything :)!!!! Boglarka & Valentin

The place is clean and in a very good shape. Its near the port and the beaches, restaurants but quit. Good place to start your trip to isla Saona. The host Cristian is very helpful and a nice, approachable guy. The room and bathroom are huge, beds comfortable and TV, wifi work great. AC works well as well. Theres a balcony available to use. Its a good place to stay for a longer stay, we would book it again.

The apartment was nice. We were on the first floor and there was always a breeze which was very nice. The air condition in the bedroom worked well. We had a fan in the den. We stayed here for 10 nights and loved it being close to several restaurants. We had a rental car to explore also the surrounding area. The Hotel is fenced and you can park the car inside. Bayahibe is a very neat little town with lots of bars and restaurants. We loved it.

We enjoyed the location which was easy walking distance into town, the beach, and good restaurants. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The facility was comfortable with good parking and it felt very secure. The unit we rented was dated and could be fantastic with an upgrade. I am not sure if the other units were upgraded or not.

The unit was dated and while advertised with a kitchenette, it wasn't stocked with enough kitchen utensils to actually do any cooking in the unit.

We stayed here for a week and it was the best place during our 3week tour around the country. The owner fixed everything right away when we mentioned about something. It was clean and warm water in the shower. Short walk to the beach and quiet surroundings. There's a grocery store next door which was handy. Would definitely come back.

If I have to say one thing that could be updated it's the kitchen equipment (we had no forks, cutting board or sharp knives). But that really wasn't a big issue. And I guess the owner would have fixed that too if we had said something.

The staff was extremely nice and the courtyard was very cosy and calm. The food for dinner was of excellent quality.

The bedroom was at the back of the apartment, along the street, which was very noisy at night (dog barking, people shouting).
