Best choice in Punta Rucia

Janine is a great owner, she is always taking good care of the visitors. Location is very nice and you can arrange a boat just in front of the hotel to Cayo Arena for a reasonable price. The breakfast was also very nice and the restaurant next to the house was very good.

Local, cheap and great.

The owner and her family were great! Janel has such a beautiful family and the whole town were incredibly nice to us. The property has the best spot in town.

The best 😁 coming back for sure.

This is the best place to stay in Punta Rucia. Staff were amazing, always attentive and accommodating. Location is perfect across the beach, breakfast looking out the ocean. Dinner recommended for sure, fresh caught. Visit Cayo Arena with Janel Tours.

You need to come here

Probably one of the best accommodations in the Dominican Republic. The room was pretty big, everything was clean, tidy and in order. Working shower (which is hard to find in the country) as well as all the other amenities. Breakfast here is next level. Toasts, crepes, jam and honey harvested by the lovely couple who run the place. They serve it all on a table at the beach so you enjoy the view! Would definitely recommend coming here :)

Would definitely stay there again!

The host Janine was very welcoming and accomodating, we felt at home right away. She hooked us up with a tour to Cayo Arena which was way cheaper and much less crowded than the tours with the big tourist boats and was generally very helpfull. Breakfast at the beach was also very pleasant and our room was cleaned every day. I would definitely stay there again.

Would definitely stay again (but I'd take extra mosquito spray)

Janine was an extremely nice host! The room was spacious and very cute - we loved the canopy beds with the mosquito nets. The bathroom was also very nice. The best thing about the house was it's location, just on the other side of the road from the beach and just next to plenty of restaurants and bars (Punta Rucia style of course, nothing too fancy). The breakfasts at the beach were very good.

Wonderful an autentic place. We felt at home

Staying at Villa Rosa was a wonderful real DR experience. Janine is a warmhearted and wonderful host. We also enjoyed the room, the food and the breakfast. At my husbands birthday the staff put a lot of Beautiful flowers in our room and there was a birthday surprise at breakfast. Thankyou❤️

The staff was incredibly friendly and helpfull. The room was great especially for anyone who is looking for an authentic Dominican experience. They propose a local tour boat that I strongly recommend. The village is awesome, arrive early, enjoy the sun set and the local village night life, then wake up with your morning beach breakfast ! Thanks for everything !

wonderful place to stay

•Great location across from the beach with lots of food choices within walking distance. •The breakfast is very enjoyable. •Jeanine is a fabulous host who makes herself available for chats and assistance. • I highly recommend booking the Cayo Arena trip through Jeanine. Having the snorkelling guide was brilliant. • Although it can be a juggle, it was great to have secure parking

It was lovely staying here in a small fishing village, the breakfast's in the morning were a real highlight and the host was fantastic telling us all about the town and helping to organise trips and activities. Once again - the breakfast on the beach was amazing!
