We recently returned from our trip to Las Terrenas. The condo, Playa Bonita Residences, and beach are all incredibly beautiful and well taken care of. We enjoyed floating in the ocean in front of the condo, long walks on the beach/path, and walking to the many nearby beach restaurants/bars. We took the moto taxis (moto conchos) into the heart of LT, and it was a blast. We felt safe and had no issues. We also ordered groceries, beer, and champagne for delivery using the Komida app.
The hosts were very attentive and easy to work with. They provided us with easy check-in (which was late at night)/out, scheduled airport transportation, and promptly answered our questions. We love this location and are returning in a few months.

Beautiful place and property. Great location with several restaurants in walking distance.

We stayed in two properties at Playa Bonita Beach Residences and this was by far the best! We saw a few others where friends were staying none of which had this one beat!
We awakened to an incredible view of the ocean, not to mention the calming sound of waves.
This condo has the reputation of being best designed and most comfortable among the regular renters. We will be back!

The listing is accurate. The apartment was very nice. The beach was perfect with soft sand, plenty of shade, great waves for boogie boarding. There are several restaurants where you can eat out. Going in to town was expensive in the taxi ($40 roundtrip) so we only did it once to get groceries and cash from the ATM. We also used the delivery service (Komida! App) once and it was quick. We had what we needed in the kitchen to cook - a few spices but no condiments. We slept with the doors open for the breeze and to hear the ocean. It was very comfortable without the AC. There were not enough beach towels for all of us so maybe bring your own. There is some construction going on currently in some of the other apartments which was loud but after reaching out to Mauray, she was able to speak with them and the noise improved dramatically. Overall, a great stay!

We enjoyed our stay at the Residences in Playa Bonita the property was beautiful and the condo was 1st class, as advertised. The Playa Bonita area is perfect place to kick back on a sunny beach watching the surfers, going for a walk on paved beach walk or enjoying the sunsets with your favorite beverage or meal at one of the many restaurants along the strip. We look forward to coming back again soon!

We had a wonderful time in Las Terrenas and in this apartment. It had everything you need for a great stay. We especially loved the outdoor space where we had breakfast each morning and even did some grilling for one lunch and a dinner. It was perfect. Plus the proximity to the beach was perfect. The beds were comfy, the layout great - all was good! I would 100% recommend you rent this apartment...we hope to again next time we come to Las Terrenas. And there will definitely be a next time!

Everything about the location and the experience was amazing. The apartment was beautifully decorated and very well kept. Our only issue was the cleanliness of the kitchen and bathroom. Some of the clean dishes had food on them. The white towels looked brownish and the bathroom floors where dirty. But those only appear as flaws in context of an otherwise pristine experience.

The adage “you get what you pay for” certainly applies here. Before we even left home, we were in contact with Property manager Nidia (through WhatsApp). She provided instructions for accessing the unit, arranged a taxi to pick us up at the airport and was very responsive to any questions throughout our stay. We arrived very late at night and our taxi was waiting for us, as promised. There is a lock box which contains the front door and safe keys. We found it handy to leave the key in the lock box when we went out. The unit is very clean, beautifully decorated (exactly like the pictures) and spacious. The kitchen has everything you would need and everything works. Drinking water is plentiful and easily accessible from a large container under the sink that is hooked up to the water dispenser on the refrigerator. The beds were firm but comfortable. It is very humid, but we kept the fans on and the patio doors open when we were in the unit and the temperature was very comfortable. We didn’t find it necessary to use the air conditioning. As the picture shows, you can see the beach (and hear the surf) from the unit. The entire complex is very quiet, very safe, very beautiful. There is never a lack of chairs at either the beach or pool. The water is warm and the sand is soft, the beach is clean. You can walk along the beach for miles (and we did walk to Playa Coson). We did not rent a vehicle and didn’t miss having one. We got a motorcycle taxi (motoconcho, 300RD, one way) to get into town. We went into town only a couple of times for groceries and to eat, but we found it wasn’t really necessary. Downtown is very busy/noisy. Lots of vehicles and exhaust fumes. There is a great app called Komida which will deliver groceries, liquor/beer and takeout to your door. It was great! When you don’t want to cook, there are also a number of restaurants on Playa Bonita that we frequented. The property owner, Mauray, gives yoga classes near the pool. Can’t say enough nice things about her. If you want a relaxing holiday, quiet and safe location and all the comforts of home in idyllic surroundings, this is the place. We can’t recommend highly enough.

This is a clean, well appointed condo with a decent view of the beach/ocean. The porch/patio was very nice to dine and relax on. You can see and hear (slightly) the ocean, although you're not overly close. But, it's just a short walk down to lounge in one of the property's lounge chairs. The property that the condo is on is well maintained and security is abundant. The condos are all clustered together, and you need to walk a bit to the pool, which was pretty vacant most of our stay. There is a small bar at the pool - if it's open. The rest of the property looks like it might be undergoing some construction. The condo/property is at the end of a paved walk which is lined with bed-and-breakfasts, other home rentals, a surf shop, and several beach bars. It's lovely. Our only issues with the condo had to do with the property manager. We arrived to a home that had not been fully turned over. The welcome packet was no where to be found (so not suggestions on where to get groceries etc - we had to wing it), the internet password was not posted, and the water supply was low. We contacted the property manager, Sophia, but she couldn't be bothered to come locate any of these things or re-supply the water. We were out of water after 24 hours and ended up needing to go purchase our own from the bar at the pool (not expensive). A day and a half later we found Sophia at our door coming to drop off water (but we'd already bought our own). Not a huge deal, but obnoxious - especially after needing to search for quite a while for any info on how/where to get water as we couldn't get a response from Sophia. Upon checkout you will need to do a walk-through with the property manager (Sophia). She arrived late, but we waited for her. As we were getting ready to drive off to the airport she showed up. She then let us know that she hadn't checked the electric meter before we came - so she just charged us the base rate, which was crappy as we had intentionally been conserving electric. The interactions with Sophia all revolved around "sorry, but not my fault", which was a very strange customer service tactic. But, again, the condo itself was nice. The cleaning woman did a great job cleaning the house, even if we were still in the unit. We probably wouldn't stay here again as there are so many other options with likely better hospitality - but the condo itself isn't a bad place to stay.

Wonderful Playa Bonita Condo
We spent five weeks in this great condo and the experience couldn't have been better. From our first contact with owner Mauray everything went perfectly. The condo is really comfortable and well furnished and equipped, the whole of the Playa Bonita Beach Residences facility is maintained to a very high level, and the setting is idyllic. Nidia, Sofia and Ramon (who take care of on-site management for Mauray and numbers of other Play Bonita property owners) are all extremely efficient, helpful, prompt in responding to any questions and also just interesting to talk to. Anyela, the cleaner, was unfailingly cheery -- as well as trying to help me improve my terrible pronunciation of Spanish :) Outside the complex, the beachfront walkway offers a variety of restaurant picks from charming Coyamar to lively Acaya at Mosquito to our favourite Chef Ney and Jimmy's newly opened Ney's. As for the beach, the end by the condo is great for swimming and ideal for kids while further along where it's steeper with big breakers it's good for surfers.

Mauray's condo is beautiful!! We more than enjoyed our stay. Daniel, the property manager, was great. He checked us in and out and was available in between for any questions we had. The housekeeper did a great job of tidying up after us every day. She did leave the AC on one day in one of the bedrooms, but I just turned it off when we returned. The last days we were there, we were practically the only people on the beach or at the condo!! The location is perfect; The condo is brand new; and Playa Bonita is gorgeous! We hope to return again!
