Not what we expected
Construction next door, so loud. 6-7 days a week. All the screens were torn, so close doors at dusk or bugs. Huge holes in master closet ceiling that leaked. Master bedroom only room with air conditioning so had to purchase a fan for spare bedroom, guest were sweating!! Toilets running or broke most of the time. Was told needed to wait for parts from Amazon. Six weeks there with no cleaning offered. I don’t mind doing my own cleaning but only supplies were a broken broom, mop from WWll. No hand towels or dish towels for kitchen. No wash clothes for bathroom. Microwave was dead when we arrived. Close all windows and doors at 5pm because the outside bug sprayer covers the entire complex with a thick blue cloud that set off my asthma. The WI-FI is pretty much non existent. My husband needed to do some computer work and was only able to get WI-FI about 30% of the time. We had to use our iPhone hot spot to get any consistent computer time.

I understand your frustration that our neighbors were doing some noisy renovations during your stay. However, this does not mean that you can embellish the facts. 1. When you complained about the noise, I didn't mind refunding your money, but you didn't move anywhere. Although your rental lasted about a month. This means that in general you liked the place and did not find a better option. 2. Mosquito nets are intact on all windows, there is a slight damage at the bottom of the balcony door net, which arose after guests with pets. But it is small and does not affect the protection against insects. 3. I don't know what kind of holes in the ceiling you are talking about, but they don't exist. 4. The description of the apartment tells that the air conditioning is only in the master bedroom. Also, all rooms are equipped with ceiling fans (I don’t know why you bought a fan and whether it really was, but apparently you took it with you on the plane). In addition, during your stay in the Dominican Republic, it was quite cold (especially at night). When we came to you to replace the microwave, the fans were not even turned on, there was enough sea breeze. Now we are installing air conditioning in the second bedroom, as we prepare the apartment for the summer. 5. The apartment has 3! toilets, one of which had a slight malfunction. The plumber came within 15 minutes and fixed the situation as best he could at the moment. In the end, all the inconvenience was that you had to press the shutter button one additional time. 6. Additional cleaning was not provided for under the terms of the rental, as well as the washing of bed linen. The apartment is equipped with a washer and dryer, as well as washing powder and rinse aid. 7. I don't even know how to comment the broom, mop. The apartment has all the standard things for cleaning, as well as sponges, household rags and cleaning products. 8. You were provided with two hand towels and 8 large towels. We could not imagine that this is not enough for two people. 9. There was also one standard kitchen towel and a roll of paper towels (which is indicated in the description of the apartment). 10. After you reported that the microwave is not working, it was immediately replaced with a brand new one with apologies. For some reason you didn't mention this in your review. 11. You talk about dissatisfaction with daily fumigation, and at the same time about insects. I think it must be one of the two. 12. Internet speed is indicated in the description and is 7 Mbps. This is the best that the provider offers for the area. Once the speed dropped due to some providers problem, but it lasted no more than one day. 13. Your review is 100% contrary to the reviews of our other guests, including those who stayed not long before you.

Relaxing Stay
Honestly this was the most calming, relaxing, beautiful place I’ve stayed on vacation. The bed was so comfortable soon as you lay in it, it felt like you were sleeping on clouds. I loved that I was able to cook and do laundry if I needed too. Also it was near restaurants and the beach. It was quiet not too much traffic. The hosts were amazing and they were on top of any problems we had and I appreciate that. The part I loved the most was waking up to the sunset on the beach just from my balcony because you are that close. I felt right at home and safe. I am definitely coming back and I miss it already. Until next time.

This place is Amazing! The host was very communicative and responded to our requests immediately. The place is very spacious for our family group. Beautiful views! If you are looking for a quite place to relax with your family this is THE PLACE! The restaurant Castaways is literally on the sand, great food and drinks. Also the restaurant Mamii Chula is also amazing and affordable with great staff! If you do not mind the construction in the surrounding area which can be a soar to the eye if you look left lol this place is ideal! One thing I will complain about is a Jean covered rolling chair in the balcony, that everyone who sat in it fell either frontward or backward, Beware!! It would have been nice to have AC in the first room like in that master room. As it is extremely hot in the DR and the fan did not cut it. Thank goodness it rained the nights we stayed which made the first room a little more bearable to sleep in. Other than that the place is Fantastic! will definitely recommend and be back!! Thank you!!
