Condos in Santa Bárbara de Samaná

The beds, pillows and sheets were amazing and the kitchen was well equipped

We stayed here July 22-25, 2025. This is a beautiful condo complex connected to a hotel that sits on a small hill overlooking the peaceful bay. It is so relaxing to sit out on the balcony and watch the boats. We had breakfast there every morning. Also, you can walk down below along the boardwalk where the shops and restaurants are. The shops are painted different colors. From January-March the whales come to the area with an abundance of boat tours to see them up close. In July, it was not super crowded which we enjoyed. We swam in the pool below us that was part of the hotel. It was awesome! There is another more private pool for the condos, if you prefer. There is a restaurant you can order from as well. I can't say enough good things about the restaurant staff. We were cooking one night, and we had walked to the store to purchase ingredients but some of them got left out of the bag accidentally. The restaurant below was perfect for ordering side salads to go with our meal. They even threw in the raw onion we needed for our main course, so we didn't have to walk back to the store again. The condo itself was super clean, and the kitchen was stocked with well-kept cups, plates, pots and pans, etc. The bathroom was stocked with everything you need. There is not a beach area to swim in where we stayed, but if you drive a few minutes up the road there are swimming areas you can see from the road with pretty water.

This place is amazing and the staff are the best of the best. It’s like a retreat that you feel there. You have to go so you can see it’s not explanation, it’s not words to explain that how incredible is this place
