Fond memories of the El Cortecito Inn
FiestaMama. (hope I remembered the spelling correctly),
I stayed at the El Cortecito Inn several days about six months back. I was there for sport fishing. It's a nice place. Clean and well run, friendly staff. A couple nearby spots contribute to the charm. Right across the street is the beach restaurant Captain Cook's. They do a good job with seafood and shellfish, and you can dine with your toes in the sand and the sea breeze cooling you. And, across the street from the office and down to the left a bit is a French-run little hotel with a stone facade and a few tables on the street. It's a nice, quiet spot for breakfast. At lunchtime the proprietor had a grill going and was cooking quite a variety of meats. We had lunch there the day we didn't fish. It was good.
The fishing charter company was Mike's Marina, if you or your people are interested in that. Mike is a German in the Dominican for about 12 years, runs a tight operation, took my credit card, and the boats (about 34 to 40 footers) are in good shape and well equipped.
Best wishes,
