The place is a little bit out there and if you are not driving it’s very hard to get around. You have to rely on $10 each way cab rides to everything. Room is huge the pool isbt heated. Bathroom was very nice. It’s a quaint hideaway kinda place not for someone like me who wants to be part of the lively action and near the shopping and restaurants etc. breakfast was modest for $10 but the lady is very nice who owns the place. She does have pets.

Wow, Garden by the Sea is a little Oasis in Sosua. Nikki is an incredible host, and really makes the effort to help her guests feel comfortable and welcomed. The rooms were very clean, and it was so easy to feel relaxed. My bf and I stayed here after backpacking around DR a bit, and we ended up staying our last week here because it was very comfortable. Thank you, Nikki for being wonderful! We love Bella and miss you both already :)

I only stay for one day on a 13 day vacation.
The power went out for more than 12 hours. Furthermore, there was no plumbing when the power went off. No ability to wash your hands or flush the toilet. It felt like being in a “HotBox”!!
The hostess said that the power was out city wide, However, in town there was no problem with the power..
I chose this location because of its reviews. Clearly they are not being honest about the reviews..

Peaceful and Relaxing

Nikki’s bed and breakfast is calm and peaceful. I loved our bungalow and enjoyed our time in the pool. Very relaxing and since I’m from the surrounding areas we never did enjoy a breakfast there. I found it a bit pricey but if you are new to the area and scared to travel then it’s appropriately priced. I’d love to return here

Excellent place to go !!

We spend a week in the \"Garden by the Sea\" bed and breakfast place. It is an excellent place to rest or as we did to use as place to move around visiting different locations in RD. Breakfast is very good, owner and staff are always ready to help you. It is just one block from a quiet beach, and 15-20 minutes away by car of more crowded but beautiful beaches.

Peaceful and private ❤️

Super relaxing. Super fun. This is definitely a nice location ,if you did wanna bring your family with your kids you can. It’s about 25 minutes from the airport with traffic. Definitely close not too far from a big city, but not exactly where everything is super close, but there is a nice little private beach walking distance from this day and I think that is very great for people who are not interested in traveling the town, Nikki is super sweet, super attentive and is extremely helpful . it definitely is a little paradise away from all the chaotic that you may get from being at a resort for that I chose this place for me and my fiancé. We had a nice reasonable extremely accommodating stay while we adventured out for most of our days. The local security is also extremely nice. Everyone in the area is super welcoming. If you stay here, I would definitely recommend a vehicle just in case you need a late night drink or something you’re able to hit the stores earlier in the day. Awesome stay!

Habitación pequeña, piscina de cloro, Beida$$$$

Habitación muy pequeña. La piscina tenía una cantidad extremadamente alta de cloro, lo que hacía que fuera incómodo nadar. Los anfitriones le ofrecen un bar de autoservicio, pero debe lavar la licuadora, los vasos tienen que pedir hielo, hacer su propia bebida y luego lavar todo y vuelve a ponerlo en su lugar y luego te llevas una sorpresa cuando te vas cuando ella te cobra 20 dólares estadounidenses por una bebida diciéndote que los precios estaban en la pared pero no los ves por ningún lado un abogado estadounidense que decidió retirarse y aprovecharse de turistas viajeros

Garden by the Sea is a pure gem! Just a 2 mins walk away from a stunning beach, (the sunsets are amazing!) I absolutely loved my time there!! My room was gorgeous, the property is so beautiful, Nikki is so incredibly accommodating, so lovely, charming and professional. I fell in love with the house dog Linda, what a gorgeous dog!!! She’s so friendly, to all my fellow dog lovers, you’ll melt when you meet her! Me and my family loved how private the property was, especially during these unprecedented times. It’s better to stay in places like this where you limit your interaction with people. The property is in a great part of Sosúa, so much to do and so much to see. Overall I’m dying to go back, wish we could have stayed longer. I can’t wait for our next visit. Would highly recommend!!!

My wife and I were looking for a small quiet little get away in the DR; we could not have asked for more!
Nikki, the owner is kind and sweet and does her very best to accommodate her guests. Everything was impeccably clean; the mattress was very comfortable, quiet air conditioning and a relaxing environment.
You'll find a nice little secluded beach a mere 2 minute walk from the pool. It is very safe and no one bothered us. It has no chairs for sitting down so bring towels if you want to laze around, but we thoroughly enjoyed its more abandoned or secluded feel.
The complex is equipped with a gaz and charcoal bbq and each room has its own little fridge so you can store some food and drinks. Nikki has received certification for her water; I drank it, it tasted fresh and I wasn't sick, but if you'd rather bring your own water you can also do that.
If you're looking for the all included high volume beach resort, this is not the place for you; however if you're looking for a nice quiet B&B experience down south and you enjoy making your own food or going out to restaurants then you'll be hard pressed to find a better place than Garden by the Sea. I thought this was last trip to RD, but after finding this little jewel I'm very tempted to book another trip soon.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This property is in a safe, quiet area with 24 hour security. It is located just a short 5-minute walk from a semi-private beach. The staff and host are amazingly warm and accommodating. Rooms are clean and cozy, with free WiFi , a/c and cable tv. I’ve stayed here three times and I’m looking forward to my fourth visit real soon! Don’t miss out on this hidden gem!
