Guest Reviews
- MARIA (9/5): Top - Muy buena atención por parte de los anfitriones. Instalaciones muy cuidadas. Sitio perfecto para desconectar y relajarse. Camas cómodas. Se debería mejorar el camino de acceso al alojamiento. Y poner un timbre en la puerta de la calle.
- Diana (6/5): -
- Espinal (9/5): -
- antonio (9/5): Tutto perfetto! Grazie mille - Posizione, disponibilità dello staff, quiete, pulizia
- karla (10/5): -
- Andrea (6/5): Clean and convenient, but more transactional than welcoming - The place was clean and there was convenient parking available on-site. There wasn’t anything particularly negative, everything was overall okay. However, the stay felt quite basic and functional. If you’re simply looking for a place to sleep, it works well. But if you’re expecting a more personal experience or some connection with the owners and local atmosphere, this might not be the right place. It’s essentially just a place to stay, and that’s it.
- Carmina (7/5): Piccola oasi - La zona piscina molto carina É mancata più volte la luce durante la sera
- Robert (10/5): - It is an excellent place to stay in - the host, Sylvie was very hospitable. Certainly recommend this place to stay in as I will be in the future.
- Claudia (10/5): - The bungalow is very comfortable, clean, and offers plenty of storage space. It also features a lovely terrace, perfect for enjoying dinner, and a pool. The location is excellent, the town is easily accessible on foot, and the most beautiful beach we visited during our stay in the Dominican Republic, Playita, is also within easy reach.
The hosts are really kind and welcoming. They kindly waited for us to check in even though we arrived after 6 pm, and they gave us lots of great tips on things to do in the area and restaurants to try.
- Frèdèric (10/5): Un vrai mmonent de bonheur - Un endroit paisible et calme juste à proximité de la rue principale et à 10 minutes à pied de la mer .
Le couple des propriétaires qui sont toujours aussi peut soins , disponible , fort sympathique.
C’est primordial.
- Kim (8/5): Fijn verblijf met een voortreffelijke locatie - Het is schoon met een fijn bed. Dagelijks schone handdoeken. Veilig met een poort afgesloten waardoor je auto ook veilig staat. De verplichting tot contant betalen en het gemis van een kluisje in de kamer.
- Daniel (10/5): - The room was super comfortable, I had the best sleep in days! Las Galeras can get noisy at night but I didn’t hear anything from my room which was great. The common areas are not huge but more than enough as there are only 5 bungalows – the pool, for example, is quite big. The owners are fantastic people and try to help you in everything they can. So far this is a well deserved 10/10. I liked everything…
- Claudia (9/5): Sitio perfecto - Espacio de tranquilidad y paz. Preciosas instalaciones. Un remanso de paz. Excelentes anfitriones. Nada. Sólo tener en cuenta que el acceso es pista sin asfaltar y con baches y poca iluminación, por si llegan de noche.
- Cavenaghi (8/5): Abbiamo soggiornato per tre notti. Si riesce tranquillamente a raggiungere la spiaggia a piedi e nei pressi raggiungibil - Proprietari gentili e disponibili, hanno pulito le stanze tutti i giorni. Posizione ottima sia per muoversi in macchina, ma anche per raggiungere la spiaggetta e i ristoranti vicini a piedi Pagamento in contanti obbligatorio e la mancanza di un minibar in camera
- jose manuel (9/5): - Bungalow cómodos y bonitos cerca a pie de la bonita playa la playita y también cerca de restaurantes y tiendas. Camino de acceso no muy bueno y como había llovido estaba embarrado.
- Anne-Sophie (10/5): Endroit charmant et prioritaires très accueillants ! - Tout était parfait : bungalow extrêmement propre avec une bonne literie (et une douche pluie très appréciée après la plage), la piscine est très agréable au milieu d'un beau jardin, le tout dans un environnement sécurisé.
J'ai reçu un accueil très chaleureux de Sylvie et Yveric à mon arrivée, ils m'ont donné de très bons conseils que ce soit pour les excursions ou les restaurants où dîner au juste prix. Ils sont extrêmement disponibles pour leurs hôtes.
Je suis à peine partie et souhaite déjà revenir !
- Sara (10/5): Excepcional - Cama cómoda y baño reformado y muy limpio. Sylvie y su marido muy amables y atentos. Buen aislamiento, ya que a pesar de la lluvia no apareció ningún insecto a diferencia de otros establecimientos en RD. Repetiríamos sin dudarlo
- Sabrina (10/5): Excellent séjour, reposant ! - Excellent séjour chez Sylvie et Everick. L’emplacement est super dans Las Galeras, la proximité avec les plages, la chambre est très confortable(bonne literie) l’extérieur est très agréable et apaisant. L’établissement est au calme. Sylvie et Everick sont très accueillants et nous ont donné de très bons conseils. Très réactifs également pour nous aider. Encore merci car grâce à vous nous avons passé un excellent séjour à Las Galeras. Merci pour votre accueil et votre gentillesse !
- Federica (10/5): Wow - É stato tutto perfettp, Sylvie e suo marito sono due persone fantastiche. Molto gentili, ci hanno consigliato un sacco di cose e aiutato moltissimo sia con i tour che qualsiasi altro nostro dubbio. É stato un soggiorno fantastico, l'appartamento molto molto carino con tutti i confort necessari, la struttura ben curata e rilassante, insomma un vero paradiso.
Grazie di tutto ancora a Sylvie e suo marito, speriamo di rivedervi presto!

- Seyedeh Mojan (10/5): - Ein hübsche Anlage mit einem schönen Garten und Pool. Der strand Playa Grande und La Playaita sowie diverse Restaurants, Cafés und Supermärkte sind fußläufig erreichbar. Sylvie und Yveric sind super nette, freundliche und hilfsbereite Betreiber. Sie waren immer da, wenn man etwas brauchte oder einen Tipp benötigt hat. Danke! 😊
- Amy (10/5): - The property is a beautiful, well maintained patch of paradise - we loved our stay here! The bungalow is spacious and immaculately clean, and gets cleaned (with new towels) every day. The towels are large and fluffy! There are five bungalows, and the property is very peaceful both within and the broader area - apart from the sounds of birds, there isn’t much noise which was very relaxing. The owners are so lovely and helpful, and are able to assist guests in Spanish, French or English. They helped us with finding where to rent a quad bike and how to get the bus to our next destination. The pool area is beautiful, it wasn’t the warmest weather when we were there but we still enjoyed it a couple of time. The owners kindly allow guests to store things in a fridge, which was great. The location is excellent, a short walk to both main beaches in the area, restaurants and shops. We would stay again if in the area - thank you Sylvia and Yveric :)
- ALEJANDRO (10/5): Todo fue estupendo, la atención de los dueños lo mejor, nos ayudaron muchísimo, nos recomendaron las mejores playas de l -
- johann (10/5): Un établissement au top pour Las Galeras - Un accueil chaleureux. Des conseils avisés. Une piscine propre et très agréable. Le confort nécessaire pour passer un bon séjour. Aucun point négatif.
- Ramon (10/5): - Lugar tranquilo, acogedor y con mucho encanto Sylvie y su marido te informan de todas las actividades que puedes hacer. Buen desayuno. Sin duda repetiria la experiencia el acceso a los Bungalows es un camino de atena irregular, con piedras.
- Antoine (4/5): Mauvais rapport qualité prix - La piscine est agréable - Pas d’eau potable
- Cher / pas hyper confort pour le prix
- Paiement par cash + facture les taxes
- Giulia (8/5): -
- Mario (9/5): Superb -
- Gilberto (10/5): We are in love with this place. We will definitely be back for more quiet and relaxing time. We will recommend it to our - The property was in good condition. The atmosphere was fantastic where we were able to get in touch with nature. The location was quiet and very relaxing. Everything was good.
- Heiden (9/5): Superb - Beautiful property and owners are very welcoming. The room was clean and comfortable. The pool has a good size and the water was very clean. We had a challenge with the internet. It was constantly cut off. Streaming anything was not possible. We also would have liked to have a coffee maker in the room. Other than for breakfast the property has no coffee. You have to venture into town to get it.
- Aivi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Fabien (9/5): Superb - Fairly new property in very good and very clean condition (as per the pictures) located in-between the main beach of Las Galeras and La Playita (~10mn walk each). Very quiet at night, so good night sleep 100% assured. Super safe. Amazing hosts who made our stay memorable. Value for money. We would definitely stay there again. Las Galeras has been the highlight of our 2-week holiday. Nothing. Everything was above expectation. Maybe a door to the toilet ;)
- Greilyn (10/5): NICE 😊 - Good place for rest. No comments
- Giorgia (10/5): Little oasis of peace - Everything was perfect, the best place we have been in the Dominican Republic. The place is beautiful, very clean and in a quiet street. The garden with the swimming is beautiful. The owners are very nice and helpful, highly recommended! Nothing
- Altair (10/5): This place is great, the owners are great, location is great. Everything was GREAT! - Everything was perfect 👌 The owners were so nice, accommodating, and made sure that everything was as perfect as possible! I can’t say enough good things about it. But I’ll try!
A/C was ice Cold. Nice hot water in shower. Everything was super clean! Bed was comfortable. Security was great. Pool was clean and well taken care of. Very beautiful floral and fruit trees. Breakfast was delicious and very fair additional price. Owners had great recommendations for exploring the local area and places to eat. The town more felt safe to walk around than some other places we have visited, especially in the evening. The bungalow is walking distance to TWO great beaches and even a cave to explore! Nothing. Everything was great! If you read my other reviews, you will see that I have almost never said this about other properties.
- Mckay (10/5): Exceptional - It's a great place, great staff. Very clean. Definitely would recommend
- Naomi (10/5): The hosts are really warm and welcoming. We felt as if we were staying with friends. - The shared areas such as the garden and pool are very beautiful, well kept and peaceful. The room was very comfortable, clean and nice. Same for the bathroom. The hotel is very close to a gorgeous beach called La Playita. The best part of our stay was meeting the hosts, who are very welcoming and attentive to anything we may need. Would definitely recommend for others to stay here and would personally come back. It would be nice to maybe include a TV. The rest is perfect.
- Dimple (7/5): For one night stay this was an okay place to stay, but breakfast was not included as advertised. - The hotel's location is off the main road and down a small road. The area is near restaurants and within walking distance of Playa Las Galeras. The hotel is pretty new and has about 5-7 bungalows. We were the only guests since it was the down season. The owners were able to accommodate early check-in, but we ended up arriving at check-in time and appreciated the flexibility. We only stayed one night and didn't use the pool. The bungalow is one room with a bathroom. There is no door in the bathroom only a curtain. The shower doesn't have a door or curtain so the water got all over the rest of the bathroom floor. The room has both an AC and fan. We booked this hotel because it included breakfast but when we checked in we were told it was 500 pesos/$10 USD per person for coffee, fruits, and bread. We asked if they had a Dominican breakfast option like tres golpes/mangu and they didn't know what we were talking about. Being a hotel in the Dominican Republic and knowing the national breakfast/meal is very important. Also, no coffee was offered or available in the room. We were not able to pay by card, it is cash only. We also had to pay a cash deposit for the main gate key. We received the deposit back after returning the keys at check-out.
- Tatjana (10/5): Perfect relaxing place - Very nice and helpfull hosts, beautiful garden, room and pool. They prepared us very delicious breakfast. Everything is cristal clear. This place is near beaches and main street. The name "Colibri" really means that there is a lot of birds!😍
- Baris (10/5): Exceptional - We had a really good time. thanks.
- Maria (10/5): Absolutely perfect comfortable relaxing place - We loved everything about this place. The hosts were very friendly and attentive. The beds were so comfortable and the rooms were perfectly climate controlled. The breakfasts were amazing. Location was perfect, close to town and easy walk to La Playita, my favorite beach. We liked everything
- Ellen (9/5): Everything you need! - The owners are super welcoming and friendly. The room has everything you need, is clean and is located in a nice, quiet area. The pool area is beautiful!
- Thomas (9/5): Very nice stay - Very warm and friendly hosts. Nice, clean and modern rooms. A very good shower with good water pressure and hot water (I mention this because this is not always the case in Dominican Republic). Nice atmospheric lights at the small pool. I missed a small refrigerator. But after talking to the hosts, they told me that they are planning this in the (near) future.
- Traveller'70 (9/5): Very welcoming owners, you feel right at home - Perfect spot, near all but still very quiet, safe,...nice! nothing
I made suggestion of extra small curtain in bathroom and a small fridge but they already are geyting this done! Super!!
- Wiktor (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing hosts who made our stay the most pleasant. We would definitely stay there if we ever come to Las Galeras once again :)
- Vera (10/5): Oasis in Las Galeras - The bungalows are located in a side road which is very quiet. Still the Main Street with a bank and lots of restaurants and shops is only a three minute walk away.
Similarly the beaches of Las Galeras are easily reached by foot. We didn’t bring a car but there’s ample of secure parking available.
The two hosts created a great atmosphere and a delicious breakfast which we enjoyed every day.
They helped us out with everything; from arranging taxis to trips and giving useful tips.
The pool and all amenities are kept exceptionally clean.
One thing to consider when booking is that there’s no door between the bathroom and bedroom.
- Berta (10/5): Exceptional - The owners were very friendly and helpful. The bungalows are cute and have everything we needed for 2 nights. It felt safe and we could walk to the beach and restaurants. We could park our car inside, although there's limited space so be sure to contact them before. Nothing.
- Andrea (10/5): Super!! - The pool was super, with plenty of sun during the most of the day. The air conditioner was working perfectly, which is very important in this area. The property was very quiet taking into account that Dominican Republic can be noisy with all the motorbikes and music, we could sleep pretty well. The owners were so kind and helpful, really lovely couple. The have a parking inside, but because they ask for a cash deposit for the key, we needed to park outside (from 10PM that is the time they lock it) because we did not have enough cash on us, so take it into consideration if you want your car to be inside.
- Sevag (10/5): Exceptional - Walking distance to the main part of town and all the beaches around, yet tucked away in a quiet street. Super clean and well maintained property. And the best part of it all were the hosts/owners Sylvie and Yveric.
- Sabrina (10/5): Exceptional - Very helpful French hosts. Room was very clean, had lots of storage options and was quite new. 15 minutes by foot to both beaches in Las Galeras. Breakfast was nice (not included). The hotel is in a very quiet area. You should really like your partner since there is no door to the bathroom. The hotel is new and might not be known by some drivers. It is a few minutes away from the main street on a dirt road, which wasn't a problem for us.
- Magdalena (10/5): Excelent stay - I had 4 great days in Bungalow Colibri. Sylvie and Yveric are very hospital and helpful people. They made such a great place to stay in the middle of Las Galeras. It’s close to shop, bank and 10-15 min walk from beach. I loved so much the room, the peaceful surroundings and swimming pool. Room was clean, spacious and look exactly like on the pictures. I had breakfast and it was delicious (I tried both versions). Great start for a day. Sylvie and her husband took a good care of me during my stay: they answered for all my questions and were available on phone. They know the neighbourhood well and can give you a great recommendations for trips and help with booking a tour.
I recommend from the bottom of my heart to stay at Bungalow Colibri in Las Galeras! Thank you for your hospitality :-)
- Yan (10/5): Best stay in Samana, clean and comfy room with Swimming pool and AC - Beautiful property located in a quiet area, nice and big swimming pool, clean and modern rooms equipped with Air conditioning, while the owners are super helpful, welcomed us warmly and made breakfast for us last minute upon request. Highly recommended! None, all perfect!
