Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The bedroom was nice, but the outlets didnt work and the bathtub water was crazy it pass from cool from hot in seconds. There was a lot of noise very early in the morning, because they were remodeling and start to work too ealy. The pool was empty and they never mentioned before arrival, so it was really frustrated and because of the remodelation there was a lot of dust and my husband develop an alergic. The place was dirty. If they clean the place and finish the remodeling, i think would be a nice place. The bedroom has ocean view, really beautiful and is located near to several restaurants with good food. The beach is 15 min walking and you can take tours to others island thar are nearby.

Terrible hotel - don't even think about staying

Terrible from the moment of arrival! You have to walk down the road to their restaurant to pay by card as the one at reception doesn't work! A known problem they have that they haven't bothered to fix. The room we booked was the upgraded one and the toilet was broken, the sink tap was loose, cracked tiles, new plug sockets didn't work. The breakfast is a joke! There is only 5 tables so get up early or you don't have a seat! All different varieties of cheap plastic. Not enough staff and you need to ask for everything, no kind of organisation at all. No sign of a manager or supervisor of any sort. It's badly run hotels like these that give the area a bad name! Shame on the owner

Breakfast included wasn’t amazing… eggs, bread/ham w fruits. Staff doesn’t all speak English. The hotel isn’t right on the beach- probably 10mins walk. Beach does have a lot of glass around / need to be careful. Great restaurants around.

Friendly and helpful staff good and secure parking close to everything. Although they did say they had bar service it was extremely limited. But of course, you could walk across the street and bring your Own and sit by the pool.

Stayed as a single person for 1 night. The property seems to be renovated recently and it’s like the pictures shown. Clean rooms and overall a good place to stay. I gave it 4 star because the rooms are not sound proof and the room I had was close to the reception so there was a lot of noise

Excelente opción en Bayahibe, el hotel extremadamente limpio y el personal muy amable, el desayuno muy rico, quizás las habitaciones no son muy grandes pero tienen todo lo necesario, además hay descuento en los restaurantes soficu que también están excelentes y con muy buena vista al mar, otra ventaja es que está a unos metros de dónde salen las embarcaciones, si estamos de nuevo en Bayahibe regresamos a Soficu On the Beach, Gracias.

Un excelente hotel en el centro de Bayahibe

Elegimos este hotel por su excelente ubicación en el centro de Bayahibe, a escasos metros de la costa donde se encuentran todos los restaurantes y punto de salida para la isla Saona. El hotel parece que ha sido construido o reformado hace muy poco, y calidad-precio es una ganga. Las habitaciones son tal como se ven en las fotos, las camas cómodas y limpias, asi como las toallas y el resto de la habitación. Nos ha encantado el desayuno, con un zumo natural de chinola (maracuyá) de infarto.. para terminar algo muy común en República Dominicana es la amabilidad del personal, y en este caso así ha sido con creces. Os recomiendo reservar con ellos el viaje a isla Saona y no arriesgar con gente que ofrece este tour por el pueblo.

Maravilloso hotel al lado del puerto

Un hotel fabuloso!! Está en una zona perfecta, al lado del puerto y de los centros de buceo. Las camas son súper cómodas y la habitación bastante amplia, con todas las comodidades. Sí volviéramos a Bayahíbe, sin duda nos quedaríamos de nuevo en el hotel. Su personal es muy amable y están dispuestos a ayudar en todo lo que se necesita
