Guest Houses in Punta Cana

George and the staff felt like a family! We felt at home right away, and George told us how to get around, what to expect, where to eat, etc. When we asked about sim cards, he offered to drive us and get them right away, which he did. Extremely helpful, since we had just arrived in the country and hadn't gotten our bearings just yet. Every morning we got breakfast in the outdoor kitchen and dining area. The coffee was excellent, and the food was amazing; everything cooked right there by a very friendly woman. We got different tropical fruits like papaya, banana, melon, then followed up by scrambled eggs, toast, milk and juices. Perfect! One morning they made some Colombian breakfast cakes too, made of corn, cheese, and something delicious, fried in a pan. Kept us going the whole day:) They had some clothes lines out back where you could hang your clothes or towels from the beach. It is humid in this country, so eventually you will need to hang dry everything in the sun. Three beautiful and friendly dogs lay around in the shade all day, and greet you with wagging tails every time you pass them:) Also; The restaurant next door was super nice, with the friendliest staff. The grilled chicken is super good, and you can ask them for any additional spices or sides like you want it. Good rum, cold beer, great people. Everyone from the neighborhood gathered there on the evenings, and had food, drinks and a good time. These two places located on the same street made our stay in Macao perfect. The overall warm feeling of this place is amazing. 10 minute walk to the beach, where you can rent surfboards, or just lay in the natural shade of the mangroves and palm trees. Small shops for basic groceries or a bottle of rum and a beer. ATM just down the street. Perfect base for a couple of nights if what you need is peace, quiet, beach, and good food and people.The rooms are simple, but have good AC, which is very welcome in the humid and warm climate.

Great value for money! Very affordable and within walking distance to the beach. The staff is helpful and friendly and the rooms are large and comfortable.

The location is perfect, so close to the most beautiful beaches I've ever seen. Additionally, the first 60 meters facing the ocean are public beaches, and it's only 8 minutes away from the hostel. I stayed in the new Eco Vip shared dorms, and I must say they are much more spacious and comfortable than I expected. What really sealed the experience was the range of excursions they offered me. The Saona excursion for just $50 is a must! Definitely one of the highlights of my trip! If you're looking for a nice place very close to the beach, Eco Hostal is the perfect choice. The quality-to-price ratio is unbeatable. Few hostels in Bavaro charge $20 per night. I'll definitely come back on my next trip!

Location is perfect and the owner Boris is super helpful and kind. The room is very cozy with a nice balcony and kitchen. Highly recommend ArtHostal for people that don't want to spend a Fortune on luxury resorts.

Everyone is very friendly and helpful with ideas and the price is good
