kaoba bungalows or casa blanca?

k,
so i narrowed my hotel choices down for our trip to cabarete next week. i just need a little help. to refesh you all, we are 2 youngish women looking for a clean nice place that is somewhat close to the beach and bars.
i was wondering about the bungalows at kaoba. when they say "tropical construction", what does that mean exactly? is this a primitive hut or just its own freestanding room? do lots of insects/mosquitoes or other critters get in easily? it sounds like a neat thing, but i will get in a whole lot of trouble by my girl if it is "roughing it" too much.
or, there is a studio available at casa blanca at the pool house (the one not near the beach). should we go with that instead?
i think we may take a little trip to las terranas for a few days in the middle of the week so we can always come back and change. but i would still like a nice place to stay for the first few days with out having to move.
once again, thank you, you all have helped me go to the DR informed!

You are certainly better of in Kaoba .
Its a short walk to the beach and all the bars and restaurants.
Casa Blanca is too far away to get back late at night safely..
Its a pretty long dark stretch to get back.
