We offer our guests a clean, safe and atmospheric place to stay. A place to feel comfortable and at home while exploring the best of what the Dominican Republic has to offer.

The excursions we offer reflect our passion for adventure and beautiful scenery. We emphasize excursions with small groups, stopping at remote locations, away from the crowds, with attention to the nature and the authentic culture.
