Altos de la Caobita

Impressed with the natural beauty you can see from the room I was in. Staff person "Henny" was very easy going and trustworthy. Be mindful theres is no A/C (although natural breeze is quite refreshing and there is a big ceiling fan in the room). There is no TV nor high quality WIFI in the rooms which is tough if you have young children that need entertainment. I think this is a place to disconnect and be closer to nature and those accompanying you. Last strech of the road is very bumpy but otherwise roads are ok.

Okay. First off. This is advertised as a environmental hotel. This may be true. But. Its important you understand a few things before booking this location. The road to this location takes you about an hour from Azua, through some of the most impoverished areas in this part of the Dominican Republic. The road that leads you to this hotel😳 Is a shock to say the least. The road is dirt and medium size rocks, 0.9 km in length with some of the most uneven and poor road conditions you could imagine. On the way to this hotel, on the road described above, you will find a sign that has (skull and cross bones) on it, and written in Spanish it says Prohibited la entrada!! When you finallly arrive at the hotel. Its literally, and I mean LITTERALLY in the middle of no where!! If your looking to be secluded!!. This is your spot. The rooms are simple and basic with a large front patio deck and no air conditioning. Its a hotel that I would say will offer a unique experience.

We booked this property at this last minute and are very glad we did. It is away from the noise of the cities, and even the traffic. While the road is a bit bumpy getting there, it is worth every second. While we were only able to stay one night, it was a perfect way to end our Dominican vacation; taking in the beautiful flowers, fauna, wildlife and the most gorgeous sunset.

Amazing
