Hotel at playa grande or near

[otto]

Looking for a site or info on a normal hotel ,,or bungalow, apt. in this area to stay,,, tell me i dont have to stay at some luxury golf condo, please,,thanx

[Rocky]

There is a nice little hotel in front of the lagoon in Rio San Juan.
It would be a 15 minute drive/ride to Playa Grande beach.
Would that be close enough?
If so. let me know and I'll see if I can dig out the name of the place, and maybe some contact info.

[otto]

That may be,,ive been talking with the guys at la costa surfing there on the beach, at grande, and plan on spending some time with them surfing and fishing,,dont know how close this is to them, but if you could get me the name i would be very grateful ,,,,,later

I do believe it's called Bahia Blanca.
Here's Yahoo search page with reviews.

I have heard only good things as well.
Like I said, you would be a 15 minute or less concho ride from the actual Playa Grande beach.

[Rocky]

Not to worry, Otto.
We will get you the contact info for Bahia Blanca.
I am a bit busy tonight, as our poker game is about to start, but if you would care to do the following, you will have your questions answered in a short period of time.
Go to Lonely planet's forum, http://thorntree.lonelyplanet.com/ and select the third forum, entitled Americas - Caribbean , then ask for the contact info for Bahia Blanca in Rio San Juan.
It may help to title your post, "oldhippy".
I'm quite sure he has that info, but if not, somebody else will.
If you do not get it within 24 hours, please advise me, and I will find it.
Regards, Marco.

That was great timing, Otto.
I just now got the reply from oldhippy
Hola Marco!

The email contact # is old but may be easily verified...ie. if it comes back. The tele # is solid however:

bahai.blanca.dr@codetel.net.do

or call at 809-589-2563

It's a French Canadian woman owner who's name escapes me at the moment.

Hope this helps!

Best to you amigo!

oldhippy

bahai.blanca.dr@codetel.net.do would most likely have been changed to
bahai.blanca.dr@verizon.net.do

i don't believe they have a website although there was a review online earlier in the year that had a picture or 2.

i had planned to stay there last spring and Rocky found the contact info for me then too....thanks again

don't worry about the email...just get a calling card and telephone them. the number is current.

good luck!
