“Stayed 9 days in January. It’s my 10th visit and I always look forward to the hospitality of Nikki and her staff. Fabulous food and comfortable rooms. Nikki has many suggestions about activities. After a hiatus caused by the pandemic, I’m so happy to be back”

First off let me tell you about the staff - they were amazing people that came to your every need. The hospitality was great. The rooms were wonderful and comfortable. I choose Garden by the sea every time I travel to DR. I thank Nikki for the staff and I thank the staff for being amazing..

WOW! That sums it up. We had a great experience over Christmas/New Year's week 2022. Two families, 2 teens. The place is even nicer than the pictures! What makes it truly special is the team there. Nikki, the owner, is terrific.
