I stayed at Garden by the Sea in June 2024. I stayed here in large part because of the reviews I read on this site. This place did not disappoint. Being from America, I was excited to receive some American hospitality from Nikki who was mentioned in many of the reviews. She was great! I felt more like I was a guest in her guest room than I felt like I was at a hotel. The place is small, maybe 8 rooms I think I saw. The room wasn't large, but perfect for a couple and very clean. The shower was bigger and better than most I've had staying in the DR. The place was super quiet, which for me is a good thing. I believe only one other family (taking up maybe 2 or 3 rooms) were there during my 3 night stay. I've never stayed at a bed and breakfast, so maybe it's normal, but the family style breakfast was different. There is a beach within walking distance, but very secluded. Not a place I would feel comfortable at closer to dark. You feel like you're in the middle of nowhere, but action is just a short drive away. I would definitely stay here again.
