    If I could give them 0 stars I would. Worse hotel ever. Rooms suck, they are dirty, the staff is rude and they do not help. They gave us the wrong room and would not correct the mistake. The food sucks, they use the cheapest brand of alcohol and they’re too expensive for the service you get. We left because of the terrible conditions and they would not give us a refund. Don’t do it, any other hotel would be better.

    Very cool location close to everything (walking distance) in Cabarete. The staff was friendly and helpful at all times. Our room was clean and spacious and we had a great view. They offer a big choice of breakfast options just at the beach. We definitely come back! :)

    The location is perfect and the staff were so accommodating. I got very sick and they brought in health care staff and called an ambulance for me on the first night. They went above and beyond. The security guard went to the store to get water bottles and deliver them to us. He also kindly offered to walk me to the pharmacy so I could get some medicine. I was so grateful for their care and hospitality.

    This Boutique Hotel delivered on every aspect. Initial check-in was friendly and quick. The room was clean, comfortable and fully stocked with toiletries, sufficient towels and A peaceful tropical view from my balcony. Everything one could possibly need was 100 feet away whether it was the beach, the restaurant, the bar, reception or even the middle of downtown Cabarete. So many wonderful staff from Walter at the front reception or Andris and Katherine in the restaurant and of course Daniela who oversees both the restaurant and the bar with a quiet and understated level of professionalism and caring. The most surprising part of this hotel experience was the exquisite food that was served morning, afternoon and night. I had friends that live on the island join me for dinner every night because they could not recommend anywhere better after dining with me on the first night and couldn’t wait to come back I have travelled all over the world and experienced some of the nicest resorts but would have no reservations about recommending Hotel Taina for those open to having a more intimate lodging experience. What this hotel may lack in amenities, it more than made up for in value and attention to details that matter to a traveller like myself. Food, cleanliness and customer service are important ingredients to a successful and enjoyable vacation and Hotel Taina delivered everything I could have asked for…can’t wait to return

    I’ve been coming to DR for 8 years now and this is such a hidden gem I discovered, I mean I always knew about Villa Rainey u can’t miss it but I never ate at the restaurant, I’m a foodie and this place is the one to go if u want something delicious, love the ceviche, tacos and burritos, fish is always fresh and Ask for bartender Vanessa she always makes the best margaritas and mojitoes, Noelli is such a great waitress, and Danny the manager is always a friendly face to see, thank u for such a great service! We also have been watching the World Cup there, they have the biggest tv in Cabarette and a nice couch set up! Thanks Danny, great job! Plus they have all the kiting and windsurfing equipment right there set up for you!

    The service was amazing.. every single employee was cordial and friendly. Whenever we would arrive at night the guard made sure to wait outside until we made it in the building. The place is kept clean at all times.

    We were refugees from Hurricane Fiona and the staff made us feel most welcome. Our stay was longer than expected but mostly pleasant. We had reserved the large suite downstairs but had to request a move because (as others have said) there was a musty odor. Also the fan was making some noise. The room we were moved to was acceptable. The bed was somewhat hard but otherwise ok. The sink had a large drain hole that was uncovered. I like to use the sink with water in it, but that was impossible. The two soap dispensers (there was no shampoo or conditioner) were difficult to operate and dispensed a very small amount with each pump. As a person with disabilities, I have to be careful where there is a wet surface on the floor. The restaurant is in an outside building and one has to cross over walkways with fairly slippery stones including having to go up an incline at one point. There were puddles all over the place and no apparent effort to clear the water. At a minimum, there should be some kind of non-skid materials placed on the stones and concrete. A couple of the receptionists were very courteous and knowledgeable. But, as we checked out, the very young lady who tried to help us was clueless about the bill. The bill is in German and the size of many spreadsheets. It appeared that she was requesting a lot more for the stay than should have been. I speak fluent Spanish, but she just didn't understand or could explain the bill. We finally worked through it and resolved an issue than should not have been a problem. I was correct that the total was far less. The Assistant Manager, Lena (sp?) was most gracious throughout our stay and constantly asked if there was anything we needed. She is quite an asset.

    This was a group trip of friends for kiteboarding and surfing. Really the perfect place for kiteboarding. Rooms are clean, mattresses are quite firm but fine, all the staff is super pleasant and accommodating. They have a restaurant and bar on the beach which we felt was best for lunch but they serve all meals. The air hose to inflate kites was not operational. Just walk along the beach for a ton of other restaurants. I would definitely stay here again. It would make a great couples getaway also... for the pricepoint, location, cleanliness, amenities it is a great place.

    Nice little lovely hotel. The room was large and clean. You didn't hear much of the main road (we had a room towards the street in the second building at the seaside). The corridors were cleaned several times a day. Beautiful beach. Breakfast buffet was good and dinner in the restaurant was excellent. It was à la carte. Very nice bar and lounge area with a beautiful view of the sea. The waiters and waitresses always had a smile when serving drinks.

    I really enjoyed my stay in Villa Taina. The wind & kitesurf point is the best in the bay. Pleasent, clean and well maintained place. Far enough from the busy bars but close enough to walk there. Great crew! Everyone. Esoecially Dani who's doing a great job managing the rooms and Jenna and Roman who are a perfect match for the place. Creating pleasent atmosphere around, real professionals and cool guys. Thank you and can't wait till next time.

    Made a reservation for the Jazz Festival November 12th-13th on October thru booking, 4 days before the trip they CANCELLED my reservation claiming they couldn’t pass my credit card and that they attempted to call me several times(blatant lie), we had to look for another place to stay. The hotel might be decent and have a good location, but their customer services is despicable and they won’t bat an eye cancelling your reservation if there is high-demand and they might fetch more money from a different customer!!!

    A chocolate masterclass I was on with Cacao-latitudes booked us at this hotel. It was a great experience here. The staff was excellent. Every single person was friendly. Vladimir brought me chocolate when he found out we were there on a chocolate class. The entire staff was fantastic. At night, there was a cool musician at the bar playing great music. Our teachers rented an upstairs area for us overlooking the beach and the staff kept it loaded with food and drinks while we took our classes. It’s right on the beach and an easy walk to many great restaurants. After classes, we would jump in the ocean. I loved Cabarete and this hotel.

    The best location - right at kite beach. The best food - including the awesome breakfast! The best staff - after a few days they felt like family! Great rooms, great BBQs on some evenings. Everything checked all the boxes!
