Family reunion for 55, the whole property

We just spent 3 nights at las canas beach retreat for a family reunion and it was by far one of our best trips, the location, the staff, the service and the food was top notch, we rented out the entire property it was 55 of us and we loved the fact the it was all to ourselves, we felt at home and loved spending time with our family, it was priceless, the views were breathtaking, we had a little inconvenience with one of the ACs in the villa but even with that minor inconvenience we still had a great time, the staff was trying their best to resolve the issue and made us feel so comfortable, it truly exceeded our expectations and we’re already planning our next family reunion. Jasper and all the staff were so friendly and very attentive to all our needs, we’ve already recommended this location to so many friends and family. We cannot wait to come back. Thank you to everyone who took such great care of my family and I.

Company kickoff and team games

Our experience at Las Canas was excellent! We went for a 2025 strategic kickoff meeting and games (Alpha Games), and the venue was perfect.

It has great spaces for various activities (on the beach, in the pool, for presenting results, sports facilities, green areas, etc.).

The jacuzzi is at a very comfortable temperature.

The overall atmosphere is very peaceful and relaxing.

The food is excellent.

The staff is outstanding! Yasper, Alex, and the entire team are exceptional. They take care of every detail to ensure you have a great experience.

The decor and the overall ambiance of the place are excellent. I highly recommend it to any company looking to hold a corporate event!

For big groups visiting the DR

I could not say enough wonderful things about this place. From the staff, food, beach, everything was perfect! I highly recommend this place to big groups coming to visit DR. Jasper is the GOAT. Took care of our (very) needy group with a smile. Waking up to the beautiful ocean outside your villa and privacy all around, it doesn’t get better.

Family vacation with little ones

Las Canas Beach Retreat stands out as an absolute gem on this island, offering the perfect escape for those seeking a true reset and deeper connection with loved ones. Our family's vacation was top-notch, perfectly aligning with everything I'd envisioned for an unforgettable experience.

The service here is simply phenomenal! Alex and Jasper masterfully guide a team that embraces you like family. A special shout-out goes to Suleimy and Sahonny at the bar; they not only mixed the best drinks but also showed incredible warmth and attentiveness to our little ones, which truly made a difference. We're also incredibly grateful to the ladies in the kitchen, who poured love and authentic Dominican flavor into every single meal.

Each moment was wonderful, and I'm already counting down the days until our next incredible family getaway!

We'll definitely come back

We had a wonderful stay at Las Canas Beach Retreat!

The location is perfect, we loved that we could take nice beach walks, lounge in the various options and swim in the pool or the ocean.

The staff are very nice and accommodating and the service was excellent.

We can also really recommend the food, as the chefs will prepare anything you could wish for. Everything we ate was so fresh and delicious.

We were altogether more than pleased with our time here and we‘ll definitely come back.

Excellent hotel, retreat and hospitality

EXCELLENT HOTEL- RETREAT & HOSPITALITY!!

My boyfriend came across this GEM of a hotel but (really a retreat). This is a place to unwind, mentally and relax from the daily hustle and bustle. What it’s great for: mentally escaping, writing a book, getting in touch with yourself and nature, getting large projects done, large groups for an intimate family and friends moment, and weddings.

What is NOT FOR: finding a social ambiance, meeting new people, watching T.V, beaching.

The hospitality here is outstanding ALEX who is the property manager is the most attentive personnel one could ask for while staying at this chic boutique retreat. The food is perfect, for not having to go out! —- it’s a stay out and enjoy kind of place. I highly recommend to experience the quiet nature and ambiance this place has to offer.

Picture this: a peaceful, pristine, and perfectly organized paradise—everything I dreamed of for an unforgettable vacation. The service was nothing short of extraordinary! From the amazing manager Alex to the wonderful ladies in the kitchen and the ever-helpful Yasper, who helped us discover all the exciting activities in the area, every moment was a delight. I can’t wait to return for another incredible getaway!

A wild beach as far as the eye can see

A wonderful place. Peaceful and secluded. A wild beach stretches as far as the eye can see. The staff is always smiling and helpful. At the same time, excellent internet provides full access to what's happening around the world. The villa offers a truly luxurious retreat in a beautiful setting.

Yoga on the platform overlooking the ocean

The place is simply incredible!

Yasper is a very attentive and respectful host!

The location is sublime, with a pool, spa, and the ocean directly in front of the rooms. It's wonderful to wake up to the sound of waves and to be able to do yoga on the platform overlooking the ocean.

I highly recommend it!!!

Secluded Family Paradise

If you want to spend time making memories in the most beautiful tropical location, this is perfect. If you want fancy and luxury, this is not it. Our family of 30 met up here from all over the US. We spent our days:

  • swimming in the pool
  • Talking in the hot tub
  • playing on the very private beach
  • Surfing
  • Coconut harvesting
  • Playing pool and ping pong
  • Family basketball tournaments
  • Tennis matches
  • Brought in a masseuse
  • Went for a whale watching tour
  • Gathered for meals in the cabana

Not every room is newly remodeled, but it is clean and comfortable. There is no tv in the rooms, but we parents were all very happy to disconnect from the digital world and focus on our kids. We only slept in our rooms, and spent all our time on site and outside. Our kids were never bored and they had the freedom and security to roam around by themselves.

This place is the perfect size. You can retreat to your room for some private/quiet time or hang out in one of the many common areas. It is like going to someone's private home that houses 12 apartments (without kitchens). We were served 3 Dominican style meals a day. We found it to be plentiful and many of us went back for seconds.

The real star of this hotel is it's location. Palm trees, ocean, beach, gardens... It is very tropical and there are no neighbors, very private. The villa at the edge of the property is very nice. I was only in it for a short while, but it is newly renovated and was perfect for my in-laws. Luis Daniel, the property manager was able to help us with whatever we needed. It was amazing what he could arrange if we ASKED.

I would recommend this place to all my friends who are not high maintenance. It is not staffed to wait on people hand and foot. We made ourselves at home. And the experience was more than worth it!!! We will make this trip every year and the Beachcomber will be where we make our memories!!

We wished we could stay another week

My week long stay at Canas Beach Retreat was absolutely wonderful, and I honestly wished we could have extended it for another week! From the moment we arrived, we were enchanted by this hidden gem.

The rooms are clean and comfortable, providing a true restful place after a day of going to different places. Waking up to the beautiful views of the sea was a daily delight, and the strong, refreshing breeze that swept through the property was super refreshingand kept the mosquitoesaway.

Each morning, we looked forward to the delicious and generously portioned breakfast, which was included with our stay. It was more than enough to fill us up and prepare us for the day.

What truly sets Canas Beach Retreat apart, however, is its exceptional staff. Every single member of the team was friendly, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. They genuinely went out of their way to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. They helped us arrange taxis, car rental and after knowing what we liked pointed us to the right places and things to do. A special shout out must go to Yasper, one of the managers. Yasper is a true superstar who consistently goes above and beyond to assist guests with anything they need. His willingness to guide us and cater to all our specific needs made our trip seamless and truly memorable.

If you're looking for a serene, beautiful, away from all the noise and turisty stuff with outstanding service, look no further than Canas Beach Retreat. We cannot recommend it highly enough and are already planning of our return!

With friends in a villa by the sea

I highly recommend staying at Las Canas Beach Reatreat. We spent a wonderful time there with friends in a villa beautifully located by the sea. The beach is natural and non-commercial. Walking for 2 hours we met only one person. Management very helpful, even when I needed help with my car, I received full support and the problem was solved within a few dozen minutes (Thank you Mr. Y.). I must also add that I felt from the very beginning as if I had come to my good friends.

A little slice of heaven

We just got back from our trip to Beachcomber. Eighteen of us spent 7 days there, over New Years. It was a perfect place for a group like ours. We had 11 kids and 7 adults. The kids were busy all day playing on the beach,(which is right there), swimming in the pool, and just playing in the big open green space on their property. The adults were able to relax and enjoy each other's company.

Renata, Jack, and Titi took great care of us. They helped us with anything we needed. Even helped us book some fun excursions. If you are looking for fancy hotel, this is not the place. If you are looking for a beautiful and relaxing place to be able to enjoy each other's company and make memories, then this is the place for you.
