"Excellent, Spectacular, Lovely"

I was with some friends who came from South Carolina at the end of December 2014. From the moment we made the reservation we felt the personalization of the service and upon our arrival we reconfirmed it; The Front Desk staff who welcomed us made us feel that we arrived at our house. The place is wonderful, the grounds impeccable; They take care of every detail, the rooms of "dreaming" a privileged location facing the sea, the exquisite food, the staff with an excellent attitude of service, quality and professionalism; Always ready to serve us in every moment. Our special thanks to Eliazar Juma, all staff of Reception and Food & Beverage.

"Fantastic"

But I can recommend it in the highest possible way. A breathtaking view that makes you feel very lucky and we are also grateful to have had the opportunity to experience an incredible beauty. There are no words to describe it. You will have to go and see it, yourself. I went with my family to spend a weekend to observe the humpback whales. We did the tour, but unfortunately we could not see as they were still far from the bay of Samaná. The restaurant staff told me that sometimes you can see it from the balcony. I did not think he at first and gave me his binoculars. He told me to get up early in the morning before 7 in the morning as the whales are approaching when the sea is calm and motor boats are not making noise. I was there the next day looking through the binoculars and nothing. Suddenly, after 30 minutes looking for something to happen I saw it move around. It was impressive! What an end !! No one in my family believed in me but I saw and I will take this memory. I guess they are just jealous that I was the only one who woke up early. The staff in general are friendly and well trained. Humberto is the kindest person I've ever met. They are always trying to help and make you feel comfortable. The food was amazing. My favorite dish was definitely the "Captain", a fish that was so fresh ... with coconut sauce. Uhm ... their coconut desert with the chocolate melted around ... pufff. I just want to get back some of that again. We will definitely return but this time only with my wife. This place will make your wives feel like queens. Love and magic is definitely around from dawn to dusk and all night. A unique experience.

"Beautiful Experience"

Touched to celebrate the 19th anniversary and preferred a quiet hotel and non-negotiable service .... within the process of choosing saw recent publications from a friend and we knew once that the destination Vista Mare we chose to us for this experience. The facilities excellent, the view spectacular from anywhere, the apartments very hygienic and with basic accommodation ... (My bed is better). Food 5/5, privacy and security unsurpassed. Now my dear readers, what most valued my wife and I throughout the weekend was the attitude of the staff and the quality of service that this group of Dominicans are able to deliver .... People who with dedication and sincerity want to do A special moment for you In secret, they tell us that the place is unique ...... Now the people who attended us have a talent higher than the risks where the property is bet and its look the same deep nobility as the landscape that surrounds them .. .

"Absolutely beautiful"

One of the most beautiful places and panoramic views with the bay of Samaná views that I have seen. Dreamy private beach, in a rocky cave protected with mesmerizing white surf. The buildings are the grounds are first class, although we had a problem with the hot water in our room. Very few guests visible during our one night stay. Two beautiful pools for us. Empty dining room. We drove our rental car in Samana, to see the whales and dinner. Quiet, relaxing resort.

"Hotel is definitely a 5+ star, the restaurant is maybe a 3"

We only stayed one night, but it would have been a very nice place to stay for longer. Full kitchen, large living room, large-deck with ocean view, washer and dryer in the room! It is a very nice place. The views are breathtaking! The pools are beautiful. There is not much closer (15 minutes to the city of Samana) so it is very quiet. Do not bother with the restaurant. The service is exaggeratedly slow, it took almost 30 minutes before we had a drink, 1.5 hours for a very basic meal. The food was ok, my husband had seafood and was not impressed. My gnocchi was good. We tried to go for breakfast, but after being in the restaurant for 10 minutes and there was no one to certify or greet us we went and went to Samaná. If it were not for the restaurant experience, this would easily be a 5 star review. Do yourself a favor and buy groceries in town and make dinner!

"Wonderful place"

Vista Mare offers magnificent views of the Bay of Samana. The apartment we stayed in was so nice, modern and clean, like a dream! The best thing is that it is only 30 minutes from Playa Rincon, which is considered as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. As there are no hotels on the beach, you can beat everyone else by staying there early in the morning and enjoying it all by yourself. A must see! I only stayed one night with my family but would go back in a heartbeat if I could.
