CHALET TROPICAL Hotel & Restaurant-Pizzeria

We absolutely loved our stay at Chalet Tropical! From the moment we arrived, the service was beyond exceptional—worthy of a 5-star hotel rating. Every detail was handled with care and genuine warmth. Chalet #1 is incredibly spacious and creatively designed. It’s a feast for the senses—crafted with beautiful woodwork, unique rustic furniture, and thoughtful artistic touches in every corner. Just look at these pictures! Every space felt like a handcrafted masterpiece. We especially loved having our own private pool, complete with a peaceful waterfall. Even though the water was cold, we still enjoyed every moment—the sound alone was pure tropical serenity. Although we won’t be back ourselves, we’ve already shared this hidden gem with our friends and family so they too can enjoy this unforgettable experience. It’s truly a special place, full of charm, nature, and creativity. 🌿🌊 ⸻ Let me know if you’d like a version in Spanish too!

We were looking forward to trying the restaurant. It looked good and was not busy. We walked in, found a table, sat and waited, and waited, and waited. Employees saw us but never acknowledged us in any way. No nod, no F.U. nothing. It was like we were invisible. We were dressed nice, smelled good and everything. It was wierd. Seemed like the people working there were bored but didn't want bothered with restaurant guests.

What a wonderful stay we just had with Sarah and her wonderful team at Chalet Tropical! From the warm greeting at the charming entrance by her bilingual staff Dallienne, to our adorable, comfortable and super clean tropical chalet bungalow. Every morning we were delighted by a stunning tropical breakfast delivered perfectly in time in front of our little retreat and beside a small waterfall/pool. |We really enjoyed the restaurant on site which in itself was also so charming and spacious with wonderful food from bbq to local fair and even a pizza/pasta Tikki-like outdoor bar run by Ernesto from Napoli Italy! Oh and the drinks! |Every day we walked out of the property and took in one or more of the many stunning beaches on the peninsula. We asked the staff to arrange private daily tours from waterfall hikes, to a boat trip to the island of Biccardi, a day spent on ATVs, with one of their excellent local bilingual guides Daniel, to some of the most spectacular rustic and fairly untouched beaches (eg Playa Rincon) we have ever seen, and also along the East side of the peninsula from the Boca del Diablo to the stunning secluded playa Fronton.|The local village of Los Galeras is easily accessible by foot and there are many great restaurant options to choose from.|All in all we had a smashing time and will most definitely be going back with family/friends. |Merci Sarah!!|We will most definitely be

We were so fortunate to have came across this incredible place and booked a week here as our base to explore Samana! A beautiful garden oasis, quiet and peaceful with a great restaurant on site and easily walkable to everything including the gorgeous La Playita beach. We booked the ‘green’ cabin and it was perfect for our family of four, with an upper treehouse-style loft bedroom (2 single beds) for the kids and main bedroom area downstairs, plus convenient kitchenette and lovely private pool and outdoor seating area. Staff are all very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!

What a delightful place! We really enjoyed this unique hotel. The staff was absolutely amazing, even before our trip, the communication was amazing. Sarah was helpful arranging and scheduling a driver for us. Upon arrival , we were greeted warmly . The breakfasts were brought to our cottage and were tasty and we enjoyed the options offered. I would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for a unique place. The location is only 15 minutes walking distance to the beach, with plenty of restaurants and small grocery stores on the way.

What a beautiful stay we had at the Chalet Tropical! Sarah and her crew strives to make this jungle like retreat a special home and oasis! The new restaurant and pool area is amazing. Breakfast at our waterfall was always a treat. Thanks to Sarah and all ,we love the Chalet Tropical!

When we arrived everything looked beautiful. The romantic dinner was great buth we had slightly mistake going where they gave my friend in the other villa my partners dinner. And then in the morning me and my partner breakfast was good buth my friend and her husband didn’t get what they order, so they told the lady on shift and she said that she couldn’t replace it buth could give us the right one the next following day. That day we went on a tour with the four wheeler. Everything was good until the guy who was giving us the tour told us at 5pm we had to head back. The tour was supposed to end at 6pm. So we didn’t like that because we went for vacations. Then when we did got our dinner we had to wait about 30 mins just to get utensils. The waterfall wasn’t turn on whenever we were sitting outside we had to text them to turn it on.. and sometimes they would sometimes they wouldn’t. We didn’t had a great time buth the staff should work more on the attention to details. For the price we paid everything should of go without any problems… will we go back? Yes I would love to buth they should work more on their staff.!

I have nothing but great things to say about this place. From the moment that I booked communication was great. Aurora made sure to check with us on our arrival time. Her and Marta were great, they even booked some excursions and massages for us. Irene at the restaurant was super friendly(restaurant food is really good). The chalet was perfect,very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was delicious and on time every morning. We will definitely recommend others to chalet tropical!
