They visited us and loved it
We recently spent the weekend at Casa Picaflor, and we absolutely loved our stay. The location is great - 2 minutes walk from the beach with various restaurants and bars... read more near the property. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The best part of the stay were the hosts, who were gracious, kind, and reactive to our needs.
We definitely recommend asking for breakfast in the morning. The food was delicious, and eating on the porch surrounded by nature was a delight.
Definitely would recommend!

Lawns lead to a garden-shrouded swimming pool with dreamy views of forested gullies and glistening sea. Co-owners Marie-Claude Thiebault and Cary Guy came here six years ago, then spent two-and-a-half years

It's just perfect from the top to the bottom. This family-owned inn sits on 15 verdant hillside acres on the Samaná Peninsula, with views of the Atlantic in the distance.

Beautiful rooms in earth tones have Brazilian hardwood floors, antiques such as Chinese bamboo storage trunks and Indian ivory cabinets, and mahogany soaking tubs.
