We were down in the Dominican Republic for two weeks.The week we stayed at the Beach Palace was the best week! The staff and the location were great. Say hi to Coco if you go. ##### Tom Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2017 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mike Jun 12, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Private, spacious, and close to restaurants. The Beach Palace hotel is an upmarket apartment complex right on the beach very close to the restaurant strip along the main Cabarete beach area. It is a group of apartments rather than hotel rooms. As such there is no swimming pool, but instead you get great spacious bedrooms with large additional lounge, kitchen and balcony overlooking the main Cabarete Beach. Perfect for those staying longer than 3 or 4 days wanting to do the occasional cooking or relaxing in private away from the crowds. Security is excellent with 24hr manning of both front and back of the property. Well appointed in both furniture and fittings, I slept very comfortably in the big King bed every night. Definitely staying here again on my next trip to Dominican Republic. ##### Mike Stayed 13 nights in May 2017 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Hotels near Canada's Wonderland](https://www.expedia.ca/Canadas-Wonderland-Hotels.0-l503121-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hilton Garden Inn Boston-Burlington](https://www.expedia.ca/Boston-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Boston-Burlington.h1273384.Hotel-Information) > - [The Ocean Club, a Luxury Collection Resort, Costa Norte](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Plata-Hotels-The-Ocean-Club.h10238970.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Grand Forks](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels.d1312.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Casa Valeria Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Plata-Hotels-Casa-Valeria-Boutique-Hotel.h2232882.Hotel-Information) > - [Terra Linda Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Plata-Hotels-Terra-Linda-Resort.h4257458.Hotel-Information) > - [Sosua by the Sea Boutique Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Plata-Hotels-Sosua-By-The-Sea-Boutique-Beach-Resort.h114952.Hotel-Information) > - [Villa Palma Sosua](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Plata-Hotels-Villa-Palma-Sosua.h20419339.Hotel-Information) > - [Casa Marina Sosua, Trademark by Wyndham All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Sosua-Hotels-Casa-Marina-Beach-And-Reef-All-Inclusive.h691426.Hotel-Information) > - [Piergiorgio Palace Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Plata-Hotels-Piergiorgio-Palace-Hotel.h1206986.Hotel-Information) > - [Sosua Villa Tropical Retreat With Ocean Views](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Plata-Hotels-Sosua-Villa-Tropical-Retreat-With-Ocean-Views.h41444524.Hotel-Information) > - [New Garden Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Plata-Hotels-New-Garden-Hotel.h9059833.Hotel-Information) > - [Select Sosua Adults Only, Trademark by Wyndham All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Plata-Hotels-Select-At-Casa-Marina-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h44752149.Hotel-Information) > - [Instyle Residences at Infiniti Blu](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Plata-Hotels-Instyle-Residences-At-Infiniti-Blu.h12504493.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Sukhumvit](https://www.expedia.ca/Sukhumvit-Bangkok-Hotels.0-n6049555-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels in Lunenburg Waterfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Lunenburg-Waterfront-Lunenburg-Hotels.0-n6309813-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Ahnvee Resort Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Plata-Hotels-Ahnvee-Resort-Adults-Only.h17424034.Hotel-Information) > - [Ocean Village 93](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Plata-Hotels-Ocean-Village-93.h24421717.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > - [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to Bandar Seri Begawan (BWN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/bwn/toronto-to-bandar-seri-begawan) > - [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to El Prat de Llobregat (BCN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/bcn/winnipeg-to-barcelona) > - [Flights from Edmonton International Airport (YEG) to Springfield (SGF)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/sgf/edmonton-to-springfield) > - [Flights from Richmond (YVR) to Gulf Shores (GUF)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/guf/vancouver-to-gulf-shores) ### Cars ### Activities ### Packages > - [RIM Park](https://www.expedia.ca/RIM-Park-Kitchener.d6293864.Vacation-Attraction) ### General
