Hotel Villa Taina

This is a nice place for a week. Right on the beach. There are always beach chairs available in the morning. Food is delicious. Staff very friendly and professional. Although the rooms are small and very simple with few amenities , they are very clean. I would have loved a coffee machine though in my room. Lots of expats come here for food and drinks at night. It is a nice convivial space. Loved my stay!

We had had a Superior double room and it was 2 large rooms. It was very clean and the air conditioning was excellent.Access to Cabarete beach made for a great location.

Pros: beach front, easy access to the beach, tranquility around the lounge beach chairs. Friendly staff Cons: hotel is dated, shower was too small. There were cucarachas coming off the AC vents. Staff came to address it right away, however. There are not elevators and it is difficult to bring luggage to 2nd and 3rd floors. The place was not design for people with mobility issues. Also people are allowed with dogs unleashed. One small dog came after me. When I approach the dog’s owner to ask if he could put his dog on a leash, he became belligerent, disrespectful, and a kind of ******. The hotel staff watched and did nothing. When I ask for the manager to complaint I was told she was on vacation (?) when I ask for whoever was in charge, I was also told that person was also unavailable. It was frustrating and disappointing as that was a safety issue that remained unaddressed.

Lovely hotel right on the beach. Restaurant is excellent, staff very attentive and friendly. Didn’t use the surf school but heard from others it is excellent. Liked the beach towel exchange. Only downside, we were at the Front of the hotel and there was a lot of road noise at night, especially on the weekend. Also no elevator. 6 flights of stairs almost finished my knees. We will return but will ask for a beach view room in the 2 lower floors

This hotel is amazing. This is the first time we stayed at a non all inclusive. I enjoyed this much more. Everything was clean, both in our rooms, pool area and the grounds were impressive. There was never a problem with getting beach chairs, a meal or a drink. The location is perfect. Live like locals when you’re out on the streets. Enjoy all the restaurants down the beach. Looking forward to 2027!
