Hotel Villa Taina

The location is great. The Serenade Bar is very nice because it is the quietest bar on the beach. If you are not at Serenade, you are at some other place with a blasting band or stereo, next door to another place with a blasting band or stereo. There is a lot of noise from competing music, but not at Serenade. The grounds are beautiful and the hotel is very pretty.

The room was actually a studio with kitchen and a private terrace. Very quiet. Easy beach access. We opted for no meals and I am hapoy about that. The staff was fantastic! The a/c worked very well. Also there is plenty of lounges on the beach.

Check-in was no hassle, receptionists all spoke reasonable english (and several languages). All staff were very attentive and professional, everything was clean, facilities excellent and the beach and central location just amazing! Bar, restaurant and pool onsite and excellent food options next door and all along the beach! A great place to learn kite or wind-surfing (maybe next time) with everyhing needed onsite! We had a problem with the tv, and the repairman was there within minutes, though he got it working, the remote only controlled sound.. so without hesitation they replaced the tv with a better one and fully working remote. No surprises at checkout either. We did tip staff, though not required. They were worth it!

Breakfast buffet was good, nothing extra special Restaurant was very good most of the time. The hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. The beachside location of the hotel, restaurant and bar is excellent. Great place to watch the kiters and other beach activities

All together the Hotel Villa Taina is a one of the best locations for stay short- or longtime in Cabarete. The perfect access to the beach side with their own beach chairs is worth the money. If you get a room at beach side, would be lucky. But all the other rooms are okay too. The restaurant within the hotel is very good kitchen, the breakfast is huge and delicous. The a-la-carte menue is very good, only the size of the food getting smaller about the years.
