Puerto Plata Hostels

Boasting spectacular ocean views from 1000 feet above sea level, the Tubagua Plantation Eco Village is located off the beaten path, yet is just 20 minutes from the Puerto Plata Airport. Accommodations are simple yet very comfortable single and queen beds in grass-roofed palapas featuring canvas walls. The 12-acre Tubagua Plantation is an ideal place to relax for a few days immersed in nature and village life. It makes for an ideal base camp for independent travelers from which to explore the north coastal region or for those driving around the country. The owner, a Canadian journalist and 25-year resident of Puerto Plata, is a wealth of knowledge and local lore. The social area centers around a grassy terrace featuring a spring-fed cocktail pool and a bar/dining area looking out over the awe-inspiring view. Breakfast is provided, and guests organize themselves to make their own meals according to circumstances.

This beautiful Colonial-style villa is located in downtown Puerto Plata and is just five minutes from Long Beach. More like a bed and breakfast than a hostel, Villa Carolina offers single, double and three-bed rooms with ensuites. Wireless Internet access, complimentary breakfast, an outdoor swimming pool and a BBQ area are just a few of the amenities enjoyed by guests.

Providing short- and long-term vacation rentals that are close to the beach, SunCampDR Village are perfect for those budget-minded travelers who prefer to experience exotic typical village lifestyle rather than secluded life at a beach resort. A variety of room types are available including private rooms with shared facilities, studio apartments and suites with full kitchens. Some rooms have complimentary wireless Internet access, which is also available in common areas, and common laundry facilities are available.
