LOVED THIS PLACE!!!!The room was perfect, the treatment made me feel like a princess! I only have 3 suggestions: 1- to put a handle on the pool. 2- to have more "criollo" menu options. 3- to keep a good amount of Coke Zero available. The place felt like I was visiting my old relatives' house. So cozy, perfectly decorated and the cleanliness was impecable! I'll definitely stay there my next trip to DR.

Great Juneteenth stay

The location of the stay was perfect, literally steps from the beach--we were thankful for that. The breakfast was amazing, and the staff is A-1. The only problem I can say there is with the place, is the size of the beds. If you're on the smaller side, you have nothing to worry about. But if you're on the bigger side and plan on sharing a bed, you better choose a bigger bed

The hotel staff was exceedingly friendly and helpful. Breakfast every morning was very fresh. It's certainly walkable on the beach side, but on the busy street side watch out for motorcycles! The waters are gorgeous. The deluxe beach room's view was limited, but overall a good stay!

The staff are very helpful and professional. Helping and providing good service to guests is their priority. Zapata may not be a five starts hotel but it has nothing to envy of a five star hotel. In short, I have been more than satisfied both times I have gone.

Hotel Zapata, friendly, safe, clean and affordable

The hotel was cozy. Very simple but it is very clean (they are consistently cleaning the place non stop). The employees are very friendly and welcoming. I felt very safe there. Right on the beach with ridiculously warm water. I would have no problem recommending this place to anyone. Only things I wish were different would be a small hotel sized refrigerator would be great in the rooms but that is the only small fault otherwise a great stay!
