We were excited to stay here but it felt very disappointing. At first, the entrance and parking were so hard to find. Then they didn’t know we were arriving. The very nice and polite young lady called the owner while we waited. We were offered a beverage (recommended by her) which we gratefully accepted. We knew there was a welcome drink provided and really, for the delay we should have been provided one. But surprisingly we were charged with the explanation that she was new, our room was ok. The bed was hard and the ac wasn’t working. After I told he owner, he came and checked and told us to let him know if not any better. I’m the end, we were switched rooms. There was a birthday party and the music was really loud. We wanted to partake in the pool but felt that that we would have intruded on the party. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. All in all, we felt that it missed its mark.

The hotel was just right for my needs and even included a pool. Room had just the necessities when would need when going to the area to visit nearby places and you return for bed and relaxation. The pool and breakfast were an added plus. Management was awesome and attentive and the facility has private parking....

I took a daytrip to La Romana (from Punta Cana, where I was staying) and reserved this hotel for one night. It is a small, boutique-style property with a cool tropical vibe, nice pool, and solid bar. It's in a quiet little corner a few blocks away from the beach, so it was relaxing. Also, the personalized service is outstanding - they were very welcoming and accommodating. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the wifi and hot water were not really working properly, and to some people that might be a big issue. To me, it wasn't that serious... but in leaving an honest review, I had to at least mention it. Remember, though, this is the Dominican Republic... just like many small hotels in many countries, these inconsistencies are to be expected. Also, for the price, it was on par with what I expected - if you care about small details such as that, you should probably stay in a big resort anyway instead of a local spot like this. My experience overall was still positive - the room was nice (although basic), the atmosphere was very friendly, and the pool bar is a great place to chill out.

Enrique is a hands on owner with a very clean boutique hotel. Very nice pool area with a nice limited bar/restaurant. Francine is the bomb behind the bar. Everyone was very nice, and accommodating. It's really close to the beach with many restaurants and clubs. It's just far enough away to not be annoyed by the late night loud music.

We booked this hotel at the last minute as we wanted to travel around the island. Unfortunately when we arrived firstly we were told we could not check in and after some time we were finally allowed access. We had booked a queen room as advertised on hotels.com but were given a very tiny room with a very small bed! We were not impressed at all. The ac did not work and it was extremely hot in the room, the shower had cold water too! The next day we asked to change rooms, it was only slightly better but still no queen bed. After coming back in the evening to our room we found that it had ants crawling around everywhere, we had to move all our stuff and clean the room up before trying to attempt going to sleep. It was a terrible place to stay and totally missed advertised. Although if there was a single positive it was the host Enrique who tried his best.

The staff was wonderful. They helped us find a cool Catalina island party/snorkel boat and drove us there. For the price, it is a short walk to the local beach, and it has that authentic Caribbean feel with lively local people. They've got a cool dog named Gibbs!

We spent a day in La Romana and loved the location of Sol Azul. It was within walking distance of the beach where we were able to find some good food and enjoy the waterfront. The best part of our stay was the help that Enrique (the owner and manager) was willing to give to us as his guests. He took us in his personal car to run an errand and he made phone calls for us in an effort to book a tour and make sure we were taken care of. You don't meet many people as personable as he is, it definitely made our stay that much more enjoyable.

Since we arrived at the hotel, Enrique who is the owner of the hotel, provided us with an excellent service, he booked tours for us to Isla Catalina and Isla Saona for a very good price, and gave us the best advices about places and restaurants to visit. We had a very good time here and we strongly recommend this hotel, thanks again to Enrique and all the friendly staff!

A characterful hotel in a great location about 5 mins walk from the beach and a strip of bars and restaurants mostly frequented by friendly locals. The hotel itself is a little tired but the manager is quietly improving it. Thoroughly recommended but don't expect 5* luxury. The manager is very helpful and friendly and I am sure will do everything to make your stay a pleasant one
