The staff at the hotel are amazing and friendly and cannot do enough to help you from recommending lovely places to eat to letting you use their private internet when we had problems logging onto their guest net and needed to book in for our return flights. The rooms are spotless (we stayed in the studio which also had a... more

My boyfriend and I wanted a quick tropical get away, where we could relax by the beach sipping on fruity cocktails. We believed from all the reviews that Boca Chica was the perfect choice. We read nothing but great things about Hotel Zapapta, so we booked our trip! Upon arriving at the hotel we realized we were the ONLY guests.... more

When you first walk into hotel Zapata, you feel this energy of relaxation. The owner, Marta is the best of the best. She makes you feel part of the family. The little bar outside, run by Jose, is one of a kind. Great service, very personal. McKenzie and rest of staff are A+ service. The ladies that clean the rooms... more

The bar was set high after my February trip to Boca Chica. Hotel Zapata is quaint and has a perfect beach front area. I just traveled to Belize and all I could do is tell my husband how we should have gone to DR because it is just so much better. We were a group of 6 wanting to spend... more

I read the reviews of this hotel and seeing that they were somewhat positive brought my family to this hotel. Although the hotel may be good by Dominican standards, and the beach nice, Boca Chica is really a mecca for prostitution. The night we stayed there, the hotel was filled with middle aged men looking for prostitutes. In the morning,... more

We only spent one night at Zapata after leaving Santo Domingo, to get a feel for a local beach. It is a nice, small hotel, on the best part of the beach. We took the basic double room, small, but adequate. The bed and pillows were fine. The bathroom was decent sized, and everything was very clean. Be sure to... more

The Zapata is exactly as advertised. It is a great little hotel on the beach in Boca Chica. My wife and I wanted someplace quiet and local and that's what this place was. At least it was Monday thru Thursday when we stayed before going on to Santo Domingo. It is extremely clean and safe. The one night we had... more
