Staff was super sweet and fun ! Villas were very clean and the common areas were very well kept, felt like a little paradise. The pool is salt water and is available for use 24hrs. They also have gazebo space for yoga and group classes. Meals cooked by staff were great. Walking distance from the beach and other restaurants. Shoutout to Yakeuiris and Yokaira !!!

I would like to request a refund. The service was horrible. The check in process took a hour because they seemed understaff and the man who was trying to help us had no idea what he was doing because he was just security. Our door wouldn’t lock and I felt very unsafe and barely slept. The roaches were everywhere in the bathroom. Very unpleasant experience overall !

Great experience!

We were very pleased with our stay at Hotel La Tortuga. The service was excellent. We were greeted with a delicious fruit juice. We arrived at the hotel at 2:00 p.m., and they let us check in anyway. We loved the breakfast; you can choose between eggs or pancakes. It includes a fruit cocktail, natural juice, coffee, and bread. There are a wide variety of restaurants and spectacular beaches around Las Terrenas. I recommend Punta Popi Beach... We would definitely stay here again.
