Thanks for plugging my trip report! I will confirm that Casa Nina was very nice and not expensive, with breakfast included. We just showed up and grabbed a room, I don't think you'll need to reserve.

Also in my trip report there is a link to my photos, with a few of Casa Nina.

is there a phone directory for las terrenas that can be accessed online??

Use SAMANA or LAS TERRENAS in a search.
You will find several websites with hundreds of links to hotels and guest houses.

I have to agree with you, "Playa Colibri" is one of the best hotels in Las Terrenas. The apartments are big with a full kitchen, but we don't bother to cook because the restaurant on the premises serves fantastic meals.
The chef-fisherman(he catches the fish every morning) prepared some of the best meals we have ever ate in DR. The meals were inexpensive, too. For example a lunch for two consisting of 2 panini sandwiches, 2 presidente and 2 expresso for less then $8usd(January 2004). The Chef is italian, so every meal is with an Italian touch, a little more garlic, more oregono, antipasto, fresh pasta, etc. Average dinner cost was less then $25usd for two, without wine or beer, but with expresso cafe.
Ooops, this supossed to be about hotels in Las Terrenas and I am rambling about the good food at Playa Colibri restaurant.....sorry.

Just got back from our apartment at Playa Colibri in Las Terrenas and can't wait to go back in a couple of weeks. (we are living temporarily in Santo Dominigo). This is the only place I would recommend. Excellent administration, friendly atmosphere, beautiful surroundings, 24-hour security. The girls at the front desk are the most gracious. And last but not least, I have to also mention the great restaurant. Grazziano, the manager and chef, is doing a great job. And his enthusiasm is contagious. The food is the best in Las Terrenas.
