I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were perfect for a family visit, and our balcony overlooking the pretty garden was a lovely touch. The service was top-notch, and the location was ideal, just a peaceful 5-minute stroll from the fun but busy little center of Las Galeras. However, the dining options were limited, and the price felt a bit high for what was offered.
