Hotels in the village of Bayahibe
Hotel Bayahibe and Llaves del Mar are both nice, inexpensive small hotels in the village of Bayahibe. Their rates are usually no more than 25 a nite for clean rooms with screened windows, fans and private bath.
There's also an abundance of cabanas which vary in price - all cheaper than the hotels, and are quite comfortable though some have shared bathrooms.
In Bayahibe, nothing is far from the water and a walk to the public beach is about a 3-5 minute walk from the village along the bay - longer if you stop for ice cold El Presidentes at the Issa Mar cafe. This is also where you would catch any boats for scuba/snorkeling, or excursiones to Saona or Catalina islands.
If you'd like more info and pictures of most of the places, I also write for the travel website
www.igougo.com under the guidename Jake Ryan. Hope you've a great time; and if you're there in a couple of weeks, I'll see you there!
