Hay que ir y pronto para disfrutarlo sin masividad
el lugar es espectacular, el personal del bar y restaurante todos muy atentos!, la comida nada muy especial (el risotto de camarones horrible), la atencion de la chica de recepcion (turno de la tarde) es realmente mala, además de que por su error casi nos quedamos sin excursion. Creo que les falta mejor mantención (las colchonetas de las reposeras muy sucias, hay bastante basura en los alrededores de las cabañas)

No much variety on food and the faucet water was salty. Despite the roaches and mosquitoes and No AC nor electricity overnight…. It could be a very nice DAY trip where no accommodations are expected; but I would not recommend spending the night if you have any heart condition.

On a scale 1-10—8. Our place was great we liked so much we would probably visit again. One of our friends in Punta Cana recommended this place. We have also recommended to others. I liked or we liked this place as it was camping but had so many nice things that we enjoyed our time in Eco Del Mar that I’m sure we will be back again. Thanks so much Peggy & Steve Cook. We also brought with us Steve Sister and brother in law and they also enjoyed Eco Del Mar. it was a very nice experience. Thank you!

The beach is definitely beautiful but the one thing I didn’t like was the bar and the food menu. Half of the things they have in the menu they didn’t have and the bar didn’t have a lot of the ingredients to make drinks. The only juice they had was passion fruit. They had vodka but nothing to mix it with. They need better food selections and have them in stock not on the menu and when you ask for it, they don’t have it. I recommend to bring your own food and drinks because it’s really bad. Breakfast portion was maybe good for a toddler. So like I said before, take food because you will be hungry. Also tips are included on everything you order at the lodge which they never mentioned and here I was tipping everyone. Also I was there for two night and the first night we didn’t have any light from about 12am to about 0630am. So that means no fan and no type of air which made it a very hot night with no sleep. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

Un Hotel sobrevalorado para lo que ofrece
El Hotel no cuenta con las condiciones para ser un Glamping de Lujo como lo quieren vender, si hay temporada de lluvias no cuentan con elementos tan sencillos como sombrillas ni siquiera para el personal de servicio. La limpieza de las cabañas o carpas y el servicio en los restaurantes es muy deficiente.

The service was not very good, there were not many food options (and it was overpriced). The excursion to Bahia de las Aguilas is totally NOT worth it.

They have a good service and good food.

The eco hotel is amazing, the beach is pretty beautiful and theynoffer you all you need to spend nice days there. They can improve the breakfast including fruits, hot chocolate, as a part of the meal. The showers had bad odor. That can be simple resolve watching every day with an antibacterial. After that everything was pretty good

Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort
They had an incorrect booking and so not enough beds for us - didn't seem unusual to them to expect a 28 and 29 year old brother and sister to sleep in the same bed! So we were unable to stay as they had nothing else to offer us. Then had a 5 hour journey home in the dark after an 8 hour journey to get there. No customer service ("booking sites never tell us what's needed"). Great location right on a beautiful beach but all camping (think tents for a music festival) and no glamour. Bar and basic tents on beach - mattress on the floor and no furniture for the ones we looked at. But Bahia de las Aguilas is stunning so if they can move from a white board reservation system to something that works then (I would suggest phone and speak direct to them to book) then it could be wonderful as there is no competition (yet) in the area.

At the beach but service should be better.
We stood there for couple nights. All tents located at the beach with lots of trees and shade. Not hot water at the shower, also water is some salty. Food at restaurant is overpriced (1100 pesos which is 3 times more than in Santo Domingo, plus service fee is 30%), credit cards accepted. Last night it was only two of us at Eco del Mar, so all staff left home right after 6pm. We had no drinking water, no light at restroom. . Also Eco del Mar do not provide any towels. Price for boat to Playa Bahia de Las Aguilas is overpriced, 2500 pesos round trip. Sand at the beach is not clean, has lots of dust from dry leafs.

Double check your reservation
After i made my reservation i received an email saying that they no longer had a cabin for us that for 130.00 would give me a tent instead with no lights, imagine driving 6 hrs to be told you dont have a place to stay, this is a very rustic/virgin place so the places to stay are super limited, double and triple check before starting to drive there, took 8 calls to get the reservation cancelled so we would not be charged, we finally found a place and continue our journey, bahia de las aguilas is amazing even with what happened we enjoyed the 2 days there, just beware, we made it ok because we spanish speaking and are knowledgeable, but it is not good for someone that is new at traveling to any country. You must visit bahia de las aguilas it is a bucket list kinda trip ❤️

Fint men obekvämt
Man åker inte till eco del mar för maten, för att sova gott eller för servicen. Man kommer dit för stranden. Vi hade otur med vädret, det regnade in i vårt tält på natten. Det var hål i lakanen och i madrassen. Få i personalen kan engelska och de som bara pratar spanska har svårt att prata enkelt och långsamt. Åk inte till hotellet på annat sätt än med bil, vägen är svår att åka motorcykel på. Om ni verkligen vill uppleva en orörd strand men inte har något emot att resten är si sådär så kan vi rekommendera att åka dit, för stranden är magisk.
