Review for Costarena Hotel (Stay: November 9 -12, 2025) This was our second stay at Costarena Hotel. Our first visit was impressive—the property was quiet, affordable, and offered good value, which is why we decided to return. Unfortunately, our recent experience was disappointing and fell short of expectations. What went wrong: Room Condition B11: The floors creaked with every step, the room had a moldy smell, and the shower curtain and room curtains felt cheap. There was no hot water, so we had to shower in cold water. Wi-Fi: The connection on the third floor was nonexistent. I had to go down to the lobby just to get online. Bed & Cleanliness: The bed was extremely uncomfortable, feeling like exposed springs. I also woke up with multiple bug bites, which was unpleasant. Security: The room still uses an old-fashioned key system, which feels unsafe. Missing Item: My brand-new Bulova prescription glasses went missing from the room while we were out. This was very upsetting and unacceptable. Staff should be trained never to remove personal items unless they are clearly trash. Service: Reception staff spoke good English, but breakfast staff did not. My husband requested a Dominican breakfast and was served an American breakfast instead. We always tip housekeeping and appreciate their hard work, but losing a personal item and experiencing these issues makes it hard to trust the staff. Unless improvements are made—especially regarding security and cleanliness—we will not return.

🌴 Prime Location with Untapped Potential This beachfront property boasts an unbeatable location—just steps away from one of the most stunning beaches on the island. The views and proximity to the ocean are truly its greatest asset. However, the property itself shows significant signs of wear and tear across nearly every area and is in need of substantial renovation. With the right investment, well-trained staff, and strong management, this place could easily transform into a top-tier destination in Las Terrenas. The potential is undeniable—it just needs someone with vision to bring it to life.

Service was great, friendly, and they answered any question I had as well as helped out with all of my requests, appreciate the help of the staff! Parking was easy, across the street where the restaurant is located which is also where the beach is located, fairly convenient. Less than a 10 minute walk from the town and restaurants, one block away from a market/convenience shop. Overall, great and easy stay for the price paid!

It was my second time staying at Costarena. The staff at the front desk was very friendly. The young lady who checked us in was very kind and responsive. our check-in process was smooth. However, our air conditioners were not working properly, and it took almost an hour for the maintenance person to come check-it out and that was after we went to the front desk to ask for an update. There was also an issue with our bathroom door. It would not stay closed. The hotel should make sure rooms are up to par with the basics before checking the guests in. Other than that, the rooms were comfortable and clean. We got the apartment unit and the breakfast was included. My first time staying at Costarena the breakfast was buffet style which was decent. Now, breakfast is served at the Costarena restaurant "El Kiosko" across from the hotel. The staff at El Kisko during breakfast time needs a lot of improvement and possibly to be retrained, they act very different from the rest of the staff. The staff was a bit rude and did not care to explain that the fruits and drinks were self-served which was hard to tell because the area was not equipped with plates and cups. It looked like it was part of the bar. The breakfast was very limited. The restaurants lunch/dinner menu has great variety available for purchase. The outside space is well maintained. The pool chairs and tables should be changed they're old. The hotel is in a great area easy to walk to nearby beaches and other restaurants.
