I have just returned from a two week stay at Los Gringos on the Playa Magante near Rio San Juan in the DR. Like many others before me, I was looking for something different from the crowds and pre-packaged hospitality offered by the large all-inclusive resorts. I was thrilled by what I found at Los Gringos. Los Gringos has three... More

I have just returned from two weeks at Los Gringos and it was one of the most relaxing experiences I’ve ever had. Most of the places in the Dominican Republic are all inclusive and I was looking for a cabana on the beach so I chose Los Gringos and found exactly what I was looking for. The cabanas are gorgeous...

My girlfriend and I stayed at Los gringos mid november this year and it was great. Now if you are looking for the most exciting place in the world with tons to do and hundreds of people to mingle with then this may not be the place for you. If you are looking for relaxation, quality time with a loved... More

Our stay was fantastic. The weather could have been better, but that's not really Patrick's fault. :) As far as logistics go, Patrick came to pick us up in Cabarete and then arranged for someone else to take us back to Santiago when our stay was done. He cooked delicious meals and hit it off with my husband. The place... More

For our honeymoon I didn't want the typical resort, but wanted to feel like we had discovered our own little paradise - swimming, cabanas, coconuts...the whole deal. The price is absolutely fantastic and we ended up eating nearly all our meals in the restaurant, which came out to be very affordable. Even though it rained a couple of the days,... More

Patrick, who runs this amazing hideaway simply wants you to have a great vacation. In addition, his food was amazing, I mean, truly the best - as good as you would find in a high end, 5 star restaurant. So tasty! When we got the bill, it was also so inexpensive! We felt like we ate like kings and queens!... More

I just came back from two weeks at Los Gringos. It was the most peaceful and relaxing vacation I've ever had. The place is not for everyone: there's no air conditioning or nightlife, and the cabanas, although charming and clean, are basic. We spent our days watching the water and the sky...sunbathing, walking the beach, reading, lingering over delicious meals,... More

We spent a week at Los Gringos with the family in January 2008 and we really had such a wonderful time. Patrick and Steve are the best hosts we have ever met. They treated us like if we were at home, like royalty. Just imagine going to a restaurant and the owner asking you what would you like to eat... More

When we first researched where to stay while in the DR, we found only large or all-inclusive hotels. We were thrilled to find Los Gringos instead. Patrick and Steve and their friendly helpful staff made our stay 100% relaxing-- it was a perfect vacation, from the laid-back but completely accommodating atmosphere to the serene, secluded beach and the excellently prepared...
