Fodor's Expert Review Le Reef Beach Condos

This small condominium complex is made up of primarily two-bedroom units with full kitchens that are spacious and stylish, reflecting Cabarete's surfing craze (kite, wind, and otherwise). With ocean views and the school right outside your window, you'll feel like a student of the waves and wind. Cooks will appreciate the full kitchens, but lovers of privacy may not appreciate the bathrooms that are largely open to the bedrooms; everyone ends up splashing in the large oceanfront Jacuzzi and petite pool. Gracious managers are masters at accommodating families, both at the hotel and at the adjacent restaurant, Front Loop Café, where your wholesome breakfast is included and where you can also buy casual food. All units are two-bedroom, two-bathroom, beachfront condos, with the exception of Coconut (one bedroom, no water view). Third-floor "Aloha" has the best unobstructed ocean vistas. Rates include breakfast, Wi-Fi, maid service, and all taxes and fees.
