This is a hard hotel to rate, because its a great location to beach, restaurants and a real party at night, the pool is great and so is the grounds well maintained. But the TV didnt work, the bathroom was old and cruddy, broken toilet seat, not much hot water in shower, but it was a budget hotel.

This hotel has a very special charm. Although it is an older property, the facilities are well maintained, and its beautiful Spanish colonial style gives it a unique and welcoming character. Its location in the heart of Bávaro is excellent—the beach is just across the avenue, and there are souvenir shops, restaurants, and bars nearby, making everything very convenient.

What truly made our stay memorable was the warmth and hospitality. During our Christmas visit, we had the opportunity to meet the owner and his family, who welcomed us with genuine kindness and made us feel at home, as if we were part of their own family. That authentic, heartfelt treatment is something you don’t find everywhere and is what makes this hotel truly unforgettable.

The staff was not friendly or helpful. Be aware that they will take your ID and keep it for the duration of your stay. Rooms were fine, but no hand towels or bath mats provided. Breakfast is from 8-10 am. But don't show up close to 10 am! They won't serve you and simply tell you the kitchen is closed.

Does NOT have direct access to beach, DIRTY sheets, Moldy rooms and the wifi is a joke. The ONLY place you have wifi is right near the reception desk. \"Common areas\" is another lie. No wifi at pool, restaurant/bar, basketball court. We went two days without towels. If you do not tip they do not clean your room and will take your towels. If you have children and want to take them to the beach you must walk 25 mins to Los Corales (closest public beach) and bring chairs or towels to sit on. Also a 15 min walk from the main food strip in area. The restaurant next door where you get free breakfast has slow service (took about an hour to get our food each day) and you still have to pay taxes on the food, so not \"free\". I would not recommend this hotel. It does not look like the photos and it should not be deemed as a \"good\" rated hotel.

Grounds , room and staff were fine. But one day the maids cleaned the toom and i came back late, no towels! The hotel advvertised a continental breakfast but instead, it was a small breakfast from the next door restaurant- only one coffe! On xmas day there was no breakfast, no notificatipn, and most place were closed so limited food choices! The breakfast was supposed to be included for all the days. If they had let the guests know ahead of time we could have been prepared.

Our stay was good. We wanted a balcony but they gave us a room without it so that threw us off bc we smoke and we had to leave the room to do so. Also, the hotel manager, Javier made very rude comments about the staff. Racial discrimination against Haitians. I’m Dominican and didn’t like it at all! . It didn’t sit well with us.

Password was wrong and they had a hard time communicating what the password actually was. On their Password list at the front desk that I was told to take a picture of it, did not work and it took about a half an hour to sort that out. I was told to just come to the lobby if I wanted to use Internet and even if I was connected, it wouldn’t work in the room, and I was instructed to just go to the balcony to use the Internet. Managed to get it connected, but Internet is very sporadic and slow, constantly losing signal.
The room is extremely rundown. Bathroom is gross, everything is mounted in properly. TV is crooked on the wall. Pictures are crooked on the wall half inch gaps underneath the door where critters can come in.
But the biggest thing that I was concerned about was Security at night because the doors only have one lock and no deadbolt or security lock when you’re sleeping. I definitely wouldn’t stay here with a child.
No telephone.
No Lamps
Cleaning ladies woke me up knocking at my door at 8:55 am asking to clean room when checkout hadn’t even passed.
Air conditioning unit was almost directly above the bed.
Picture on the wall had broken glass in it.
The room had a small desk but no reachable electrical plug to plug in a laptop.
Fridge was unplugged when I got here and took a couple hours for it to get too cold.
No hot water after running it for ten minutes
The pool had a nasty shade of green instead of nice and clean
No cups, or coffee machine
Won’t go back!!!!!

The property has potential, there was no phone in the room, the bathroom wouldn’t flush . I had to open the back of toilet and flush myself . On July 7th 2025 there was a blackout there was no light or water.No one at front desk, no one reaches out to the guests . I had to go outside and ask the locals , the reception never asked if anyone was okay. The blackout was for over 2 hours.

During my stay at the hotel, there were a few cons but overall great. One of the issues we had during our stay was getting our shower to work, as it would keep turning on and off for us (I believe because other people were trying to use the water as well). Although half of our week stay, we didn’t have too much of a problem with it. The hotel is right next to the beach, it takes about 2 minutes to get there which is amazing. They also have mini markets, touristy stores, and many restaurants around that are great and convenient. The staff were super sweet to us during our entire stay as well as some of the local people near the hotel. The breakfast was amazing as well! Overall, the stay was pretty great.

The property environment is great and in a great location, the beach is close to the property and other amenities for shopping e.g gifts, food and drinks etc.
The staffs are good and the place in good.
Although, the rooms needs to well taken care of as we had some difficult experience with the rooms and we have to change our rooms about 3times. First, we saw a lizard in the room with spider web, The TV of the second room wasn't working but we didn't have issues with that until the AC in the room stopped working. The 3rd room had issues with water not draining in the bath Tub. There is also no internet in the rooms.

Other than that, the place is nice.

Very much recommended

The room was much better than in the old advertised images so that I have included an updated 2025 picture. The room was very spacious and comfortable. The cleaning ladies did a fantastic job keeping it bright and shiny all the time.The hotel had only 3 sunbeds for which there was fierce competition amongs guests. They bought 3 more on January 31rst 2025 for a grand total of 6 but they still need more. There is a restaurant on-site ran by the Pronel Family that offers super delicious food and drinks, wifi and super good music. No wifi in rooms though. Also many safety boxes in the rooms are out of order. The AC and fridge worked perfectly right. The hotel has the most superb and huge inner courtyard straight out of paradise. Again, the pictures advertised don't honor it enough. You will want to spend many hours there. When I talked to other guests, this is what they mentioned first about the hotel. The pool was clean and very pleasant, a few leaves here and there but that is a normal thing. Breakfast was good but should be earlier than 8 am. Finally the location was excellent, very central.

Punta Cana Lovely Location

We loved our 8 day stay at this hotel which is just across the street from beautiful Bavarro Beach. The staff is helpful and friendly although they speak limited English. The restaurant adjacent to the hotel provides a basic breakfast, but seems to be more interested in their non hotel customers. Many great restaurants within 100 yards include Captain Cook and Anno which we requented. For souvenirs and gifts there are many shops which will way overcharge you, so offer 50% of what they ask for their usually non priced merchandise. There is a Russian owned souvenir shop very close to the hotel restaurant and in the same building that has the best listed prices.

The hotel is located in a very convenient area—next to a great seafood restaurant (Capitán Cook Restaurant), just steps away from a beautiful beach, and almost adjacent to a 3-in-1 resort hotel where you can enjoy luxurious days with their day passes. Even though the hotel was fully booked during our stay, it remained very quiet. We felt safe walking along the street at all times.

I’ve been coming to this hotel years now after staying in some all inclusives in the surrounding area. I much prefer here were you get a better more authentic view into the Dominican lifestyle than being cooped up in an all inclusive. The rooms are pretty basic but you don’t go on holiday to stay in your room,they’re cleaned everyday to a high standard of some of the most amazing women I’ve met. The reception and management staff have always a pleasure to deal with from start to finish and will resolve any issues you have quickly and efficiently no problem. The hotel itself is surrounded by a treasure trove of restaurants and stores where you can get some of the best cuisines and dine on the seafront as Bavaro beach,one of the most beautiful beaches in the world is directly across the road from the hotel.
Adjoining the hotel is its own restaurant where you can get a very good breakfast included with your stay free and then purchase meals and drinks throughout the day too,they also provide pool service if you ask.
The pool is the die for too and if your lucky you’ll get to take full of advantage of it to yourself often and the grounds boys are all amazing too.
I reallly recommend it here,I’ll be back again too!

\"I was disappointed with my experience at this hotel. Upon arrival, the receptionist seemed unfriendly and unhelpful. Despite the hotel being empty, I was told there were no rooms available.

During my stay, I had an accident near the pool and injured my foot on a glass piece which went right in my flip flops. Unfortunately, the hotel didn't have basic first aid supplies or apologize for the incident.

The room lacked essential amenities like toiletries, and the pillows were uncomfortable, moodily, dirty and had a mildew smell. The bed sheets appeared unclean, and the air conditioning wasn't working.

I had a difficult time sleeping due to the unpleasant odor and began feeling unwell. Although the staff changed my room, the air conditioning still didn't work.

I contacted Expedia about my issues, but they were unable to assist. Unfortunately, the hotel owner refused to refund my payment for the remaining nights and breakfast.

Based on my experience, I would not recommend this hotel to others.\"

Omg I don’t have enough characters to give a detailed review as it cutt me of at 1500 and I still had plenty to say. I will try to sum it up. The food is TERRIBLE! The grounds are below average. AM staff are nice. PM staff are not that great. Rooms are dirty with mosquitoes. Dusty, and smells clean surprisingly. Wi-Fi doesn’t reach all rooms . Our tv had no reception. The other guest played music loudly until about 2am but it was fri, sat night. They came to clean the room daily by clean I mean make beds, take trash, replace toilet paper. They didn’t mop or wipe anything down. They didn’t have a do not disturb sign. I didn’t like the room but for the price I didn’t mind all the downsides. I asked to change rooms but I was told there weren’t any that could accommodate me and my children. If you don’t speak Spanish you will be a little irritated with communication inside and outside resort. There was some staff in the morning that spoke English but at night it’s a different story. 3 minutes from beach! Overall I love the location and the room served it’s purpose I only wanted somewhere to sleep, for the cheap price I paid I didn’t expect Buckingham Palace. The area seems a little unsafe but we had no issues , we were only there 3 days tho. I would probably go here again but I would for sure take what ever cleaning supplies I could bring. I hope that I’m able to post my video and pictures i took.

I loved my stay at Cortecito Inn. I will definitely be back and recommending guests to come here.

Pros: the pool and bar is great (gracias Chris) , the property is well maintained and the proximity to the beach is amazing. It is literally right across the street which was a deciding factor in staying at Cortecito. Breakfast at the restaurant next door is fresh and filling for what is offered. The options are limited but delicious and service was attentive (gracias Daniel!) My room was spacious, bed and pillows were comfortable and it had a balcony, tv and a great AC. Also, checkout is on the later side which is wonderful and I was able to stay at the pool after handing in my room keys while waiting for my transportation to pick me up (gracias Javier!). Some good restaurants, convenience stores and a money exchange place are right across the street from Cortecito and as a solo traveler I felt safe in the area

Cons: The bathroom in my room needed some attention but nothing that would deter me from coming back. However, the fridge was so loud when connected, it could be heard from outside the room. I had no option but to shut it down because I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep with that noise. I brought it up to the attention of reception 3x and it fell on deaf ears. I was given the pretense that I would get my room changed and that never happened. Due to this I wasn’t able to bring food to the room nor keep my drinks cold.

Overall I had a great stay, thank you so much!

great for the price

For the price we paid was extremely happy with our stay. This hotel was a beautiful place in it's day, but it is older and neglected. That being said, it was a perfect spot for a quiet weekend getaway. The staff were helpful and the rooms were clean. Our air conditioner stopped working the first night but it never got hot in our room, the cement walls held the temperature. They switched our room the next day and gave us a nice upgrade to a room with a small kitchen. (room 4013) I would request this room again. The pool was lovely with lots of seating and shallow areas to sit and enjoy the water and sun. It was very quiet and we had the pool pretty much to ourselves the whole weekend. No fighting to get your chair in the morning :) The beach is right across the road from the hotel, through a line of stores and restaurants. There are quite a few restaurants close to be able to eat and also just hang out at while enjoying the beach. There is a restaurant attached to the hotel where breakfast is served. This included, fruit, eggs, toast, sausage, potatoes. Coffee, tea, juice. It's not great, but it's included..... Onno's across the street was our fav beach spot.

This property has a lot of character and charm. It has a real Caribbean feel. Totally unlike the muted, westernized hotels you may have in mind. We loved this hotel and would go back again. But, with character comes age. The hotel is far from perfect. A few examples; the light in our bathroom didnt work, our toilet was finicky, there was a leak from the bathroom sink which staff fixed, the wiring for the tv was hanging from the wall, it’s obviously been a used space. But, it’s clean, the gardens are cared for and the staff were kind, helpful and did not take anything from the room, including the money I left out for the cleaners. I had to hand it directly to them. The pool is nice as well. I also recommend that you add the free breakfast package. Breakfast is served at the restaurant each morning and is made to order. So fresh, hot eggs or omelettes for each guest. Which means it takes a little time but is worth it. They also have toast, sausages and good brewed coffee. Overall we really enjoyed our stay but just remember you’re booking an older hotel not a resort. If you like all inclusive five star resorts this won’t meet your expectations. If you like a more local experience and don’t mind rough edges you will love it here.

Sadly the photos do not honor the facilities, they are extremely neglected, old, broken, moldy, the bathrooms, the rooms are very old and neglected, surroundings such as the pool could not be used and were dirty all the time.

The surrounding were scary with people selling drugs and offering personal services, nothing safe, it was very scary to go out at night.

The only thing that was acceptable was the personal treatment of Javier from frontdesk who tried to apologize for all the inconveniences.

They changed my rooms on three occasions, the last time, the TV never had volume, you couldn't hear it.

The second time, the pole of the bathroom curtain fell silent and hit me on the head.

The first ones had leaks and air that were damaged and neglected

The stay was so terrible that I decided to move to another hotel at the second day.

Honestly, what I paid for my stay from December 15 to 20 is not worth it and they should refunded what was not used, since the hotel conditions forced me to move to another hotel and not be able to enjoy my scheduled stay.

I had to change my vacation plans, spend extra money and move ahead of time.

So sad about it.

El 1er día no hubo cable y la habitación estaba incompleta(toallas y amenidades del baño).
Hay que mejorar el servicio al cliente(sentiamos que al pedir repararan el cable de la tv les causaban molestias y teniamos un niño de 7 años.),aunque destacamos la buena gestión de la recepcionista que nos recibio, de nacionalidad extranjera, alrededor del hotel es una piscina de agua sucia en los alcantarillados.
Hay que ambientar la habitación antes de las llegadas, huele mal.

The outside property and grounds were nice. The rooms although fairly clean needs to be upgraded. The staff was very nice.

Una noche

Deben mejorar las instalaciones , están muy bien ubicados pero el hotel está un poco viejo y descuidado . En la recepción el personal deben enviarlo a tomar cursos de servicio al cliente ya que no sabe trabajar con personas . Lo único bueno es el precio y que incluyen el desayuno .

We like the location. The breakfast is great. The gardens are well cared for, and the pool is nice. The beach is across the road through the shops.

The property is across the street from the beach, which was great. The hotel kind of sucked. No Wi-Fi unless you walked all the way to front desk to use in that area. The doors had spacing in them so mosquito’s were in room nightly. Had to buy spray. The shower curtains were torn and shower head sprayed everywhere. Tv didn’t work at all.

Oh my gosh!!!! Never ever ever stay here. This place should not be advertised!!!
Im not one for leaving bad reviews but my goodness. We made this reservation a month prior to check in date. ONE NIGHT ONLY! I informed the hotel we will be coming in after 11 pm. We had someone drive to the hotel to confirm the reservation.
When we go there, the paperwork was there but they had no room for us!!! He showed my husband a room and said that was all he had.
We were given a small fan since the air conditioning was not working. We could not open the windows because of mosquitoes. We still got eaten alive!
No warm water to shower. No shower head!!! Only a pipe.
The sliding door could barely open and close. I was stumped that a place like this would even be advertised. Honestly, we should get our money back!

This is not a good place to stay. Poor hotel condition and very limited food options around. Beach very deep so we walked every day 15 minutes to Corales Beach to spend the day around there.

1st the TV and cable box didn't work, it took me hours to fix it. 2nd my other room didn't have remote at all and the front desk people didn't bring one after asked. 3rd- although the breakfast is free or included, they should do better. For the price is good, but I can't say it is 4 stars hotel.

Do not go there

Awful place. The biggest problem is Xavier, the man behind the reception desk. Never ask him for anything, he gets angry when he actually has to do some work. They also hold on to your passport despite your will. No wifi in rooms, mosquitos everywhere. And no, hotel is not on the beach.
