"Six days in paradise. One of those places you want to return to before you've even left. Actually, you really don't want to leave at all. The place is beautiful, the setting is incredible, the people make you feel at home, and the whole experience was just flipping great. Las Tanusas is not just a place to stay. It's a place you miss the moment you depart."

The Sea Garden House

The Sea Garden House

10/10 Excellent
"This is a hard place to rate. We liked it, but many won't. Lobby is open air, and dogs are sleeping there peacefully. The walk to your room is not through shining marble halls, but through a rain forest. No matter how often your room is cleaned, there will always be sand. If you like all-inclusives, you will probably hate this place (and vice versa). We had the top floor, with the ocean view. Easy walk to the beach, the cabana eateries, restaurants, bars, and the rest of town. We would go back. YMMV. You know who you are. "
