Fodor's Review:

This is the only real eco-inn in the southwest. In fact, the construction may remind you of the rustic cabins found in U.S. national parks. But instead of evergreens, there are palm trees. The Dominican owners have creatively utilized the round white stones from their beach for the pathways and steps, sometimes painting them black to make a pattern. Resort may be a too-grand description for this place, but there's a pool with mismatched furniture and an inviting "clubhouse" where guests can mingle. Cabins are large and bisected with a slatted wood partition, each section with its own double bed and bathroom. In the rustic, open-air restaurant, the ladies do turn out some especially flavorful Dominican meals, such as fried fish with tomato sauce and both white beans and black beans. Management promises a soft-goods freshening. Pros: The caring resident owner is a true Barahona caballero, soothing and stress-free atmosphere, attractive to both families and eco-tourists. Cons: A little rough around the edges with few creature comforts, style and decor need help.
