Find Hotels with a Pool in El Francés

"I feel compelled to share this review across platforms because this resort truly deserves recognition. My sincerest thanks to the incredible staff for making this holiday unforgettable. The level of attention we received far exceeded expectations—there were so many staff members that it felt like a 3-to-1 ratio with guests! Special thanks to Yojandi and Karmen at the coffee shop for their smiles and lovely chats, Prenda Lis, Ivan, and Mauricio for their fantastic drinks, Emma for her warm hospitality, and Ivan at the towel station for his excellent beach service. Despite heavy rain throughout our stay, we had an amazing time—a testament to the hotel and its staff. Set on the beautiful Cayo Levantado, the resort blends traditional charm with sustainable, modern touches. The lush gardens, immaculate rooms, and comfortable furnishings reflect exceptional attention to detail—the best I’ve experienced in the Caribbean. The spacious rooms were pristine, with thoughtful touches like nightly turndown gifts. Dining was exceptional, rivaling fine restaurants in Europe. The beach was stunning, the loungers comfortable, and the wellness activities outstanding. Outdoor yoga in the serene Yubarta area was a highlight, thanks to Carla and her team. Suggestions: Add more Dominican music at the beach to enhance the Caribbean vibe. Overall, this was the best hotel stay ever, and I can’t wait to return. Huge thanks to the entire team for an unforgettable experience!"

"Beautiful location and resort in Samana. The hotel needs some renovations, specially the bathrooms are old and outdated. The All Inclusive package needs a new name since there are items on the food and drinks list that are not included. The best part besides the views are definitely the people. Staff is very friendly and helpful. We had a great time and definitely will be back. Thank you Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 for another great vacation!"

"Excelente estadía con mi familia. Tranquilo y hermoso lugar. El staff es maravilloso. No tiene mucha variedad en la comida pero tiene calidad. "

"Very good experience, thanks"

"Excellent place to relax. Good views and food. Only negative that your balcony is close to your neighbors and there is no privacy. Other than that everything was great. "

"La Isleta is a beautiful property with lots of charm. It will transport you to a true paradise place. The rooms are very spacious, clean, and nicely kept. The property is water front, just steps from the beach. Dominique, the host, is super friendly and helpful. He kindly allowed us to delay our check out so could deal with an unexpected situation. The restaurant next to the property serves great food! All around a great place and I’d be happy to stay there again on my next trip to Las Galeras. "

"Hotel Villa Serena is the best choice for an amazing stay in Las Galeras. Anyone is a fool who doesn’t visit this incredible part of the Dominican Republic, and this hotel offers comfortable rooms, great views, and a great location to explore the best beaches in the entire Caribbean. "

"Beautiful, very quiet, very private vacation rental. Very nice clean beach, cove looking out on the sea. Grounds very well kept. Owner's on-site manager and cleaning staff attentive and helpful."
