Santo Domingo Vacation Packages

Air conditioner wasn’t working but the rest was pretty good thanks

The room was clean and spacious!

Serena's Boutique Hotel is a magical place. From the moment you check in, you feel a sense of peace & tranquility. Our patio/sea view room was spacious & comfortable with a large bathroom. The view from the patio was dreamy. By day, it was lush, mountainous beauty & by night it sparkled with the pretty city lights. We were spoiled with a delicious homemade breakfast every morning & enjoyed one very special traditional Puerto Rican homecooked dinner during our stay. My teens enjoyed the pool, the family's pets & the escape from the tourist crowds. I especially enjoyed the family's warmth & kind hospitality. I also enjoyed the family kitchen, the unique wall art at every stop, and the organic feel of the property grounds, which is decorated in keeping with its natural beauty.

I did love staying here, cons and pros below if you are interested! Cons: -The only major negative I have is not having large mats/room carpets down or providing a few washable ones as an option (which I understand it’s an ease for cleaning) but the inside tracked in so much sand and dirt and was EXTREMELY slippery when wet, especially the outside bathroom area, outside of the single small bathroom towel mat! Be very careful in the bathroom as the water from the shower will get everywhere inside due to no curtain and puddles will form and it is VERY slippery. -FYI the bathroom has a shared open ceiling with the next door unit’s bathroom. You cannot see them, but you can hear EVERYTHING; conversations, showers, using the toilet, etc.. Pros: Easy check in process. Street parking usually always available within a block (usually spaces in front available), bus stop one block away, 3 blocks from the beach, next to a friendly active park, dining options nearby, the beach is never overly crowded at all times, the TV allows you to login to your streaming services with setting an auto-log-out date, looks exactly like the photos, and the AC works great along with them having thick privacy curtains. Note: This acts as a stand alone rental - there is no staff on site and no housekeeping. Despite multiple listings sharing the same property, this specific unit has an outside property entrance.
