We truly enjoyed our stay at Natura Cabana. The food was excellent especially the included breakfast! The beach area is beautiful with blue waters at perfect temperatures. We loved the relaxing and quiet atmosphere.

Beautiful property with amazing amenities. The breakfast is included and delicious. So many vegan options. The location is prime, right on the beach. My cabana was comfortable and convenient. The yoga classes were peaceful and the instructors were nice and helpful. I can't wait to come back. The location is an easy drive to the downtown area. The property is gated and therefore feels very safe. Highly recommend!

Went with my husband and two kids (5 and 7) and we had a fabulous time! Kids loved the hanging nets and playing in the waves. Caution, these are big waves for small kids, but mine adore it! The yoga space is beautiful and I loved my spa scrub and mud wrap. The best was the food and drinks. Best I've had in the Dominican and even any Caribbean vacations we've been on. Thank you!!

The staff is very friendly and super helpful. They were more than happy to set up excursions, taxi rides into nearby Sousa and Cabarete and were extra patient with all our questions and providing information. The coast line is gorgeous and walkable on beach and grassy paths. You are pretty secluded with not much within walking distance so we mostly are at the hotel which was great for us. The property is really quite special and you can’t beat their yoga classes overlooking the ocean. Actually you can hear the ocean from pretty much ever spot on the property. You can arrange horseback riding right from the hotel. It’s much more laid back than some of the larger resorts near by. It’s is about a 2 hour walk into Cabarete on the coast which we did one day. It was a gorgeous walk. I’d definitely recommend Natura Cabana to anyone looking for a laid back vacation in nature. Ps no AC but we didn’t need it last week of February!

Cabana was clean and fun, and we loved our 2nd-story balcony, though most were less private. Reading light in bedroom was not adequate, and gym was not really equipped. We did not take advantage of spa or yoga classes, but loved the breakfast. Beach was private, but a bit rough and rocky for swimming. Dining on premises or nice pizza cafe in walking distance. Event the first night was crowded, but otherwise the hotel was peaceful.

First, thanks Rosa so much for all your help before I got to the hotel. If you have any questions or you need to schedule a covid test (I'm from USA and we still need a covid test to enter our country) Rosa is the person you need to get in touch. She made my stay so comfortable since I didn't have to worry anything. I need a place to relax and to disconnect myself from the world and i found that place. I travel all over the world and this hotel will be my choice to disconnect. The food is great. The juices that they prepare are the best. The beach is such quiet and you hardly see anyone. It is like your own private beach. My cabin was very clean (I'm a clean freak) . You don't hear anything. I didn't want to leave my terrace. My mind went blank! I didn't have a worry in the world. JUST BOOK THE PLACE!! Thanks me later.

We had a great stay at Natura Cabana. Our Cabana was unique and very comfortable. Great staff, everyone was friendly and helpful. The beach there was gorgeous and private. Dramatic sunset and sunrise. Could be rough w an undertow and waves to play with. I loved it, but you should be a good swimmer. Lots of shade available if wanted. Falling asleep w the sound of the ocean was dreamy, but sometimes waking w the birds. Your close to nature here. The food was above our expectations with lots of healthy choices. I had one of the best steaks of my life for dinner one night. I would suggest that they had more access to drinking water on the property, as you can't drink the water from the faucet, such as places to fill your water bottle. The DR is really beautiful, and the people people are friendly. So much to see and do in the surrounding area. Surfing and kiting close by. Can't wait to come back.

Wonderful!
Our stay started a little rocky, only because there was very loud bats at night right outside our cabin. Not the resorts fault, my fault because I'm not a light sleeper. But the manager at the front desk was exceptional, she went above and beyond to provide us with a resolution, and ensure we had a wonderful stay. Which we did! The resort is quaint, peaceful, relaxing, clean, wonderful staff, a great massage!! And the food at both the restaurants is top notch,amazing. But most impressed with the service of the manager, she was wonderful and helped us book covid tests, taxis, and everything we needed. Thank you!

Time to Take it Easy Here
A little escape with the beach on the doorstep, good food, massage, staff are friendly and Rosse at reception is wonderful greeting you on arrival. Nothing is too difficult. The bed was pretty and had plenty of covers, for everyone's layering preference. Breakfast is also good! The bungalows are spacious and have a great outside space to hang, great shower but to remember to heat it for 20 mins. Everything you need is here so you get to relax!

My husband and I just got back from a 6 day stay at Natura. We had THE BEST time. The area felt very safe and the staff made sure we had everything we needed even before the moment we arrived. The hotel is about a 90 min drive from STI airport - Natura helped us arrange a car and they tracked our flight (which was delayed) pick up was smooth as easy. Upon check in we were welcomed with drinks and were shown our room which was incredibly beautiful and clean. We relaxed and spend the next day exploring the nearby beach (about a 15 min walk through the jungle), surfing and later we got an amazing massage and facial. The food at Natura is incredible too. During our stay, we tried everything on the menu and couldn't pick our favorites. Each dish was expertly crafted. We can't wait to come back to the Dominican Republic! Thanks Natura for an amazing vacation.
