It was excellent. Visited: December 2004
Posted by octi
I stayed at Sosua by the Sea Resort. This resort was excellent and they seemed to be trying to distinguish themselves from the others. It was a small resort compared to the mega resorts in the region, and this was where they made their distinction.

It was situated right beside the water where guests could experience all their meals looking over the sea as the waves crashed against the rocks - a truly romantic experience. This seemed to be one of first resorts in the area that has survived on focusing on the guest and their stay.

The food served in buffet style was truly delicious. They had plenty of fresh fruit, vegetables, meat and a variety of local dishes to tantalize every taste. They also had an intimate bar for guests where people could chat, dance and get to know each other from different parts of the globe.

There were several areas from which to choose to sunbathe. You could stay at the resort, or there were several beaches west and east of the resort. There was an immediate beach right next to Sosua by the Sea where the waves came and guests could boogie board or body surf. Be sure to bring your swim goggles and fins as this will definitely help in the surf.

Also, check out the public beach of Sosua. Here the beach was longer and the waves a bit more gentle. However, the chairs on this beach were not free, so be prepared for that or bring a towel.

Another point of interest I highly recommend is to head east (15 minutes) for the day to Calibrete. This place is known for its windsurfing. A steady wind, lots of restaurants, bars and a very long beach make this area not to be missed on your trip. This is where I spent New Year's Eve, and did we have a blast. The beach was full of people and at midnight, there was a small firework display.

Joe Neurauter, president of the resort, was a super host. His attention to detail and his concern for his guests' accommodation was apparent everywhere. The staff at the resort was incredibly courteous, efficient and respectful. This was just another sign of Joe's presence and the way this resort tried to distinguish itself from others. He seemed to definitely have a hands-on-type of managerial style.

If Joe thought he could get something done out of the ordinary for the guest, he would try. For example, I tried to change my ticket from Punta Cana departure to Puerta Plata, and Joe phoned on my behalf. However, the airlines would not budge on their policy.

This is a great little hotel. Visited: October 2003
Posted by miamimike1960
We loved this hotel.

It was in a great location, and the staff was incredibly friendly. Everything was clean and well-looked after. It felt like a little family-run operation, but there was definitely something professional going on behind the scenes. I'd recommend it.

A great place to stay, but not perfect. Visited: February 2003
Posted by paul_parker
Sosua by the Sea is in a great location, just a short, two-minute walk from a busy and fun city center. it is also across the street from best bar in town and is a good base overall.

My only complaints were random-ness of hot water (temperature and pressure came and went, mostly went), and loud (but cold) air-conditioners.
