Default Non AI's on Playa Dorada beach

Hi,

I will be visiting POP in April and am interested in staying at a small hotel for a couple of nights that is near Playa Dorada beach. Can anyone recommend a nice place that rents by the night?

Thanks,

curlyq

There are loads and loads of small hotels, cabanas and apartments to rent in Puerto Plata which is only a short ride away from Playa Dorada.

I think one of the resorts in Playa Dorada has self catering apartments within their hotel....maybe that is an option???

eralc777,

Can you give me any names of hotels? Have you personally stayed at any of them?

Thanks again,

Ive stayed in a few different apartments in Puerto Plata....cant remember any exact names though. You would have to just drive around and find one though as I dont think any of them have websites or anything.

Are you hiring a car? It wouls be easy for you to search for an apartment if you do.

Maybe someone else will know which hotel has a non inclusive deal....im trying so hard to remember!!!

Default Casa Colonial

is a high-end non-AI in Playa Dorada. I've had lunch there & seen one of the rooms. A 5-star operation! Check out the web-site by Googling 'Casa Colonial'

I would guess that Casa Colonial may be a little too high end! Last time I checked it was silly money!

I would suggest Field of Dreams - just across the road from Playa Dorada.

I think if you google it - Field Of Dreams - Dominican Republice Hotel - it will come up!

Enjoy your stay!
