Absolutely loved my stay! The accommodations were pristine, and I loved the relaxed boho style. It was peaceful and quiet, and the delicious breakfast available upon request the night before was such a nice touch. The property is also located inside a gated community, which adds an extra sense of security. I would definitely stay here again!

Absolutely loved it here. Felt very welcomed by Nikki the owner the moment I arrived and she made sure all our needs were taken care of. The property is very peaceful and the sound of the waves of the nearby beach is a plus. Highly recommend and would definitely return.

Excellent place to go !!

We spend a week in the "Garden by the Sea" bed and breakfast place. It is an excellent place to rest or as we did to use as place to move around visiting different locations in RD. Breakfast is very good, owner and staff are always ready to help you. It is just one block from a quiet beach, and 15-20 minutes away by car of more crowded but beautiful beaches.

Wow, Garden by the Sea is a little Oasis in Sosua. Nikki is an incredible host, and really makes the effort to help her guests feel comfortable and welcomed. The rooms were very clean, and it was so easy to feel relaxed. My bf and I stayed here after backpacking around DR a bit, and we ended up staying our last week here because it was very comfortable. Thank you, Nikki for being wonderful! We love Bella and miss you both already :)

Nikki is a wonderful host who welcomed us and made us feel like family. We stayed for 11 days and felt right at home. Clean linens and towels. Excellent staff and breakfast. We would highly recommend and would return again!! Bella was an added bonus, who walked with us to the beach. Gated, secure and safe!!

Peaceful and Relaxing

Nikki’s bed and breakfast is calm and peaceful. I loved our bungalow and enjoyed our time in the pool. Very relaxing and since I’m from the surrounding areas we never did enjoy a breakfast there. I found it a bit pricey but if you are new to the area and scared to travel then it’s appropriately priced. I’d love to return here

6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The place is a little bit out there and if you are not driving it’s very hard to get around. You have to rely on $10 each way cab rides to everything. Room is huge the pool isbt heated. Bathroom was very nice. It’s a quaint hideaway kinda place not for someone like me who wants to be part of the lively action and near the shopping and restaurants etc. breakfast was modest for $10 but the lady is very nice who owns the place. She does have pets.
