A very sketchy hotel
A bare bones basic hotel. They have free coffee in the morning, but nothing else. Rooms are small but enough, and very basic. The 2 guys working the “front desk” were pretty sketchy characters, and didn’t seem to know what they were doing. Our second night (of 2) there, they were hanging out drinking with some local gal in the parking lot below our balcony. One of them took her to one of the vacant rooms for a half hour or so, and then they both came out and all 3 got into a big noisy argument about her “not being paid enough”! Not a place we’ll stay at again.

A Cute Quick Quaint Place to Stay
It was a great stay for what it was intended for. Close to beach. Close to shops. Close to restaurants. The bed was comfortable, there was tv in the room. Only coffee in the morning. Do not expect breakfast. We had parking. Easy check in and the security person on sight was helpful! He gave great suggestions for the area. The property is well cared for. It was a clean hotel with a fan and air conditioning. Take pictures at the sign.

Maira is an excellent host, very frienly and relaxed! The rooms were simple but very clean and exactly what was needed. The hotel is close to Bayahibe port, walking distance so everything is close by. Perfect; safe, clean and convenient!

This hotel is spotless, everything is freshly painted in a crips white. It's very reasonably priced, but the rooms feel comfortable and have a touch of style in the furniture and fixtures. It was quiet and we were able to walk to the Isla Saona boats in about 5 minutes. We had secure & covered parking inside their courtyard/parking lot.There's no food at the hotel, but the management were very accomodating and friendly and provided free "cafecita." The beach was also just five minutes away on foot and there were a bunch of nice places to eat around the waterfront; check out the Barco Bar & Restaurant for great food right on the waters edge with a bit of a castaway vibe.

Bayahibe El Pulpo is ok.
It was for one night to get the cruise the following day. It is very simple but clean. The staff is super nice. The air conditioner was working perfectly without any noise. There was a small freezer. The place is very simple.

Nice, quiet hotel
The waterfront area of Bayahibe can be quite noisy but this is in a quieter area a couple of blocks away. Good, no-frills hotel. Recommended.

They initially told me that my reservation was cancelled because I didn't check in on the check in date and I no longer had reservation. My flight was delayed and missed my connecting flight. I arrived the next day. I pre-paid the room for 2 nights. Just glad it worked out after another worker came and granted my reservation. But whew!
