Everything! Location is beautiful, it’s right in front of an amazing beach. Plus, the beach is just for you in the morning (no people). The town is right there, but it’s super small. Food was amazing, we were not expecting that! Tasty, fresh food. The hostess Gabriela was super nice, she even managed to get some cake to sing happy birthday to my mother-in-law. My 2-year old loved the place. I highly recommend it!

Juan Carlos is a Swiss/Spanish nice and easy going guy. He is a perfect host. I felt really comfortable in his house. He made sure I had a great and genuine experience in my short time in the island, and treated me as a friend. He was kind enough to provide breakfast, lunch and dinner at a very fair price. Same for boat transportation to the island. It was great to walk around and share some talks with him. The place is simple, as I would expect for an small island, but tidy and clean. The washroom is private, and it is outside the room. Don’t expect a hotel room. He also let me use, as a courtesy, his standup board, snorkel and bicycle. You could also rent for a very fair price his little moto. Don’t forget your repellent as I did. Juan has a nice little dog Mandy which fast will be your friend. I highly recommend the place, and I really hope I can come back! Finally, you pay the accommodation and other things you consume with cash only, so bring enough cash, as you won’t have ATMs around. Don’t leave your garbage behind!

Host Julio is very hospitable

Exceeded my expectations for an island stay. Communication regarding cost and boat transfered clear and transparent via Whatsapp, early check in was made possible in our case, modern air conditioning and cosy family room with reasonable storage space and functional shower and solid plumbing. Very homey feeling lady in charge welcoming and helpful. Food was delicious prepared by an experienced chef and served by the beach at a time that was agreed in advance. The property is in easy walking distance to the pier with two beautiful beaches accessible in foot or my rental bike or boat or motor taxi within 30-70 minutes depending on model of transportation. Keep in mind this is an island, food options will be limited,toilet paper goes in the bin, things will get sandy, there a more (friendly) stray dogs everywhere. We were lucky for our stay with plenty of breeze but reportedly there can be lots of mosquitoes at night time so come prepared.

I really loved this little eco lodge and the town. I had my own bungalow, nature shower and toilet just next to it. The bed was super comfortable, and the mosquito net was a must. I don't think the room or the place altogether missed anything, and I really liked that I could rent a scooter, bike or snorkeling gear from the lodge. The city itself is so small, that to be able to rent these from accommodation was handy. All the tiny details were thought, like there was filtered water (no small plastic bottles - cool!) and some cute flowers next to toilet sink. And everything was so clean. The people working there were very very kind. I'm really bad with names, but the man who used to work as a chef earlier in his life made amazing breakfast and lunch for me. I can't recommend it enough! Oh and you can pay all the extra things with Paypal if you don't have enough cash with you. If you are thinking of staying overnight on Saona Island, this lodge is the place to go. After 4pm there is only you and local people enjoying the evening and beaches when the tourist cruises leave. I wish I had stayed a few nights more. Thank you guys and I'm sorry about my bad Spanish!
