I attended a 5 day yoga retreat with Sarah Shea Yoga at Villa Serena Dominican Republic. Villa Serena is the most ideal setting for a Yoga Retreat. As the name suggest the property is serene. The Yoga Shala is in the perfect setting – overlooking the ocean and surrounded by the lush vegetation this region of the Dominican Republic has to offer. The staff was super attentive and friendly. Our bartender Kellen was super sweet and helped improve my Spanish immensely. In addition to twice a day yoga classes, I was able to relax in their beautiful pool, enjoy some time in the hammock on my balcony listening to the ocean waves. . My room was extremely clean and large, and the bed was very comfortable – I had the best sleep. The massage therapist on site situated overlooking the white sand beaches and was one of the best massages I’ve had in my life. Angelina also organized some very fun excursions very near to the resort. Beautiful beaches, a horse riding excursion with hiking to another gorgeous beach, cave exploration, and a fresh coconut harvested from the tree. A 10 out of 10 experience. I definitely hope to attend another Yoga Retreat at this beautiful resort.

I am a yoga instructor who hosted a retreat here. I couldn't have asked for a better experience, especially seeing as this was my first time hosting a yoga event overseas from the U.S. We stayed for 5 days and 4 nights. My main contact was Angelina - she was an angel. She helped me every step of the way leading up to and during my retreat. She was extremely accommodating to my needs and gave great suggestions. ||Upon arrival, everything was perfect. It's truly even MORE beautiful than in the pictures! All of our rooms were lovely - I know some reviews talk about spotty wifi or "outdated" room decorations, but all of my guests and myself felt each room was comfortable and bright. The hammocks on each balcony are a huge plus - great to take a cat nap on if you are tired from the sun. Beds were comfortable, too, and all of our rooms had a ceiling fan and A/C.||All of the staff were once again super accommodating. Although there were some language barriers occasionally, they did all they could to address any of our concerns, including food modifications for dishes. The dinner menu changed each night which was a nice touch. Breakfast includes a buffet as well as items from the menu, so you can have hot coffee with some cereal and a small pastry while also enjoying a made to order omelette. ||Angelina helped us greatly with our excursions. We all went to Playa Rincon by boat - highly recommended! It's a wild, fun ride against the choppy waves, and it only takes 10-15 minutes to get there. Some of us also decided to horseback ride down to Playa Madama with a small walk on foot along the cliffside - this was an amazing excursion. Just ask Angelina about Karin's La Hacienda Hostel. ||Also recommend checking out La Playita. It's a little beach just a 10-minute walk from the hotel. It's beautiful and they have some great food - just go to the white tent to grab some shrimp, calamari, and freshly made french fries! You could make this an afternoon since it costs nothing to go there. Just bring a beach towel from reception as well as an umbrella (looks like a golf umbrella) since there are none to rent at this beach. ||Overall, I would recommend this place not only if you are a vacationer but also as a yoga instructor looking to book a venue. You could not ask for a place that embodies paradise - it's very private and serene with no crowds or loud music, you will have the beautiful outdoor yoga shala all to yourself, and you will make amazing memories with your guests. Thank you, Hotel y Restaurant Villa Serena for making my 1st international yoga retreat so special!

We are a senior couple and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Serena. The hotel lives up to its name. We had an enjoyable and relaxing week.. La Plata Beach is a 12 minute walk from the hotel where we were able to rent chairs 200 pesos each and enjoy a beautiful view under a shade tree. The water was warm, gentle and crystal blue. The beach has a restaurant and bathroom facilities. We also visited Paya Rincon another gorgeous beach about a half an hour drive away or shorter if you take a boat ride. The food at the hotel was very good. We walked seven minutes into Las Galeras for dinner three nights to enjoy a variety of food. we always felt safe in the area. The hotel staff is pleasant and accommodating. We enjoyed a massage twice and it was a nice way to end a relaxing day just sitting on the balcony in our rocking chairs or hammock looking at the beautiful ocean is a great way to spend a vacation as well. I can see why most people stays were two weeks rather than our short one week we hated to leave we look forward to returning next year. The pictures online accurately reflect the hotel.

We had a wonderful stay! The grounds are beautiful, with a fantastic garden and a calm, relaxing atmosphere. We even joined the yoga class with our kids—a lovely experience for the whole family. The small private beach was perfect for quiet moments. Pure peace and relaxation!

Truly a paradise! Beautiful scenery, room was spacious and clean, all employees are super friendly and helpful. My favorite was the hammock on the balcony. The shallah is awesome, can't have better yoga experience anywhere else. Thank you Sarah Shea Yoga for bringing us together there.

Whenever I had a question Angelina, the manager, was extremely helpful.| The food was excellent and don't think I've eaten so much.|I would gladly go by again

This hotel is a true little paradise! I stayed on my own here for 4 nights and even extended for a bit. I had a room on the first floor with a great balcony with its own hammock and a spectacular view to the green garden and the ocean. Super clean and cozy room, super big too. Very quiet and idyllic garden and private beach. The breakfast is spectacular!!!|And the staff is helpful and friendly. I also felt super comfortable and safe staying there on my own. Would recommend to anyone!
