This property seems to be very well maintained and managed.

My first time visiting the Villa Taina and it came to me very highly recommended. My fellow guests spoke if their stay very positively as well.

Beautiful rooms, beautiful beach, many good restaurants within walking distance.

But be warned, the hotel has 4 floors and no elevators. Good exercises for those whose rooms are above the 2nd floor!

I’ve stayed at many different properties in Cabarete over the course of seven years and Hotel Villa Taina is my favorite one. The property itself is maintained very well and kept very clean, and the location, in my opinion, is the best in Cabarete. The front desk, housekeeping and restaurant staffs all provided excellent service. The breakfast buffet offered high-quality, delicious options.

Ocean view?

This is typically more than I pay per night for accommodations on my visits to cabarete but it was close to the beach and it advertised a third floor view of the ocean. I could see the ocean, but it was blocked by the thatch roof of the restaurant and to the right it was occluded by coconut trees. Not exactly top floor ocean view as advertised. Not a bad place, very close to everything which was nice. But I will probably try a different place on my next visit.

A beautiful hotel literally on the beach and within walking distance of many other establishments. It is a clean, vibrant and assessible property managed by polite, bi-lingual staff.
I stayed at this hotel exactly one year earlier so I can't help but to compare the two stays; For one, I was disappointed that breakfast was NOT included this time. I overlooked that detail when making the reservation. I assumed things remained the same. My oversight, but still a disappointment. Furthermore, the breakfast menu differed vastly and wasn't nearly as good as the previous year. Secondly, the television in the room was quite small; A minor complaint, as TV viewing was not a priority. Overall, an enjoyable vacation and will seriously consider a third stay at Villa Taina.

I have never had such a terrible experience in my entire life. I paid for my reservation online and I have been asked cash to be able to check in. We did not have any cash, so the guy tried to pressure us into going to the ATM to withdraw cash for him. We spent Bout an hour in the lobby trying to explain them that we had already paid for our reservation, however they never gave us access to our rooms. It was in the middle of the night, they didn’t let us check in so we had to drive to go sleep in the next town. It was a horrible experience and I don’t wish that one up on anybody.

Small excursion organizers, hotels, condos, restaurants, bars, cafes and surf schools/rentals are still very much in business, and following every Covid-safety measure, with greatly reduced capacity, they continue offering services in great cheer and spirit.

The service was superb specially at the restaurant...! The rest of the staff it seems like they didn’t care. The smell in the room was like something was rotting and the mattress was terrible... ended up with lower back pain every morning and a lack of sleep because of it. The last day of my stay I ended up sleeping on the little bed and the mattress was so much better... the problem is that my lovely lady and I ended up spewing in a single bed due to the mattress in the queen bed! Wondering how often they change their mattresses. Lastly, there is construction going on next door and you will not be needing an alarm as they will wake you up staring at 7:00am! Yeah, my vacations sleeping in was not possible because of the construction next door and the noise last all day long or until 5:00pm so make sure you are aware of this before booking...! Unfortunately we got a room right next to the construction work and is was terrible... sorry to say this but omg... I don’t know if everyone can handle it! Specially people with kids. Cheers

The property has no parking and extremely hard to find; cause THEY ADVERTISED THE BACK OF THE PROPERTY. THE HOTEL’S FRONT LOOKS LIKE CRAP!!! I had a booking for 4 nights, but upon arrival I tried opening my window and there was nothing but garbage and funky smells coming out of it. I’ve complained to the staff who was Mr. Wendy, but he was VERY RUDE AND DID NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT THE SITUATION. I’ve told him that: if he doesn’t change my room, I will check out the next day. He replied “ SO WHAT” Well everything happens for a reason. Thanks to Mr. WENDY’s UNPROFESSIONALISM I’m now a member of LifeStyle Vacation Club which is THE NICEST AND MOST LUXURIOUS HOTEL IN THE AREA OF CABARETE. This guy WENDY HAS NO BUSINESS DOING CUSTOMER SERVICE. Perhaps, he should be A BELLBOY; which will be MORE SUITABLE FOR HIM. Just MY OPINION

Well, we where lucky. Our room was a delight with a terrace overlooking the sea. The hotel is well run. Lots of activities and a nice restaurant.
There is an element of noise and activity at the front of the hotel. Happy we where facing the sea. Be aware of this when booking. The rooms are still pleasant and clean but noisy with no veiw.
Also, the water is not drinkable. We did receive a fee bottle for the first night which we appreciated., however I feel there should have been a source of water available to the guests at all times in the lobby for refilling. The big bottles are very inexpensive and should be doable. Clean drinkable water is an essential.
I would go back to this hotel.
Thanking you for a great couple of days.

We had a great stay at La Villa Taina. The room was more spacious than we expected, comfortable, and clean. The restaurant was good, with a lovely breakfast, and you can’t beat the location - right in the town center next to all the shops and restaurants. Parking is very tight so you wouldn’t be able to park right there, but we didn’t rent a car so no problem for us. If you are a kite surfer, you can rent right in front of the hotel and take off from there. For everyone else, the hotel’s location on the beach is good, just at the border where the kites are not permitted so you can swim, but I enjoyed sitting there on a beach chair and watching the kites. If you have a child this is a nice spot because front loop is a place where kids congregate - my 9 year old son found lots of children to play soccer with on the beach in front of the hotel. The gym has no air conditioning and is small, but there are daily fitness and yoga classes at the hotel. WiFi on the beach is spotty.

Our room was very difficult to sleep in though due to road noise (honking, motorcycle engines, people talking/yelling/whistling), super hard mattresses, and uncomfortable pillows. It was 3rd floor, over the lobby, near the street. Also, no WiFi was available on 3rd floor. It worked marginally in lobby and 2nd floor, and worked great if we went up to the 4th floor.
