We only stayed one night at the Dunama, but would definitely return. The setting is absolutely breathtaking!! The staff was amazing, specially the bartender Dillon. Only complaint is the cleanliness. Certain areas need a good deep clean and new linens/towels.

Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Roads nearby were very usable even though it was the wet season. There is a very nice black sand beach a short walk from the hotel (though the stairs a bit treacherous).

Please do NOT stay at this place, does not look like the photos at all. Pillows were yellow, the first room was so dirty, they moved us to a different one that smelled like bleach but was in terrible conditions as well. 🚩 signs all over the property “no refunds” Also Expedia was not helpful at all.

The staff were amazing definitely the best part, the hotel was lovely with a great view. However, when I booked it, it was advertised as hotel and casino with tours and massages. There was no casino, unable to get a tour through the hotel and never saw anything about massages while I was there.

Beautiful property! Stunning views, very nice people and workers. Quiet place to relax which is exactly what I was looking for. I did notice that it could have been more clean… pool, terrace, fabric pool chairs. Other than that, not complaints!

Low key, chill, friendly.

Hotel Dunama was perfect for me. Low key, not too crowded. The staff was above and beyond friendly and kind. The beds are comfortable. Good food, good drinks. There is a beautiful private beach. The pool is a good temperature and very calm. Gorgeous view of the water from the top of a hill. I’d stay there again.
