Hostel 23 — Hotel in Las Terrenas

In April I was fortunate enough to go the DR along with my best mate/colleague (Jimmy). We got tipped off to Hostel 23 through amazing souls we met in Santi Domingo! BESt CHOICE EVER!! We by faaaaaar had the best time there along with the amazing people we got to meet.

Ronald, Chinola and their beautiful team of amazing humans created something very unique and special there. The mornings were tranquil and peaceful, during the day went explored the different towns and evenings we pre-drinked along with Bachata lessons (all levels😍) and if not Bachata a little “loosening of the hips”😉(considering IM SOUTH AFRICAN, wykyk)

We were lucky enough that during our stay, Chinola’s parents organised an Italian night and cooked up an insane Italian feast😍🫶

We certainly Made life long friends there and we have already planned to go back very soon with a bigger friend group, because they really have to experience what we experienced!

Thank you Hostel 23 for making our Easter holiday an epic...

I initially planned to stay for 3 days but ended up staying for 9, the whole remainder of my vacation!||Hostel 23 is unlike any other hostel I've ever experienced. Staying here feels more like becoming part of Ron and Chinola’s Dominican family than just being a guest. From the moment you arrive, you’re welcomed into their warm, vibrant household alongside other travelers. You get to share in their daily life — hanging out with their children, friends and family as well as enjoying joint family dinners.||The location is unbeatable too. Las Terrenas is the perfect spot for a hostel, with pristine beaches just a stone's throw away, a small, yet lively nightlife scene, and a wide range of activities nearby like visiting waterfalls, snorkeling, diving, and surfing. Despite its laid-back and local vibe, the area also offers western conveniences, like a large supermarket.||If you're looking for a genuine, homey, and unforgettable experience, Hostel 23 is the place to be.
