Budget Hotels in Duarte Province

"Property was clean and beautiful. Staff was very nice. Ebikes did not work for the entire week we were there. Lighting in the bathroom is not very good. Food at the buffet was good to excellent most of the time. It was a challenge to make a reservation in one of the al-la-carte restaurants so we didn't visit any of them. I had read that English is widely spoken. This was not true. Best to know spanish if you want to converse with the staff. Area surrounding the resort is poor and dirty but there is no need to leave the resort. We didn't do any excursions but others who did liked them."

"I would go be back"

"Massive, well-appointed apartment in a bizarre hotel built to look like two ocean liners, that sits above a shopping plaza. Enormous bed. Masses of drawers and storage space. Good sized safe. Excellent fully fitted kitchen with giant fridge. Weak security on the Wi-Fi but the apartment has a high quality TV with streaming services. There is an outdoor bath on the balcony but there was never enough hot water to fill it. Two rooftop pools are the better option instead. The hotel is very close to busy main seafront road and noisy late night discotheque. We were in Boat B, apartment B212, facing out to sea. Soundproofing was not too bad but we were glad we didn’t have a room in Boat A because it probably would have been very noisy indeed and the disco bar pumps out house music until about 2am every night. Excellent inclusive breakfast is served in the downstairs Italian-run bakery in the shopping mall, which also serves great pizzas (it must be good as all the local expat Italians go there!!). 20 mins walk in either direction along the seafront takes you to either Playa Popy (no sunsets) or Playa Ballenas, where the Eden Bar/Restaurant offers the best sunloungers, good food and great sunsets. Would definitely recommend this place and stay here again "
