Coral by Hilton offers first-rate facilities, attractive accommodations, and the prettiest beach on the south coast at an exceptional price point. Its most appealing feature is a massive pool surrounded by a lush tropical garden, the chaise lounges sheltered by palapa huts.
The bedrooms are midsize to spacious, each well furnished and containing a balcony or ground-floor patio. A tropical decor prevails, with terra-cotta tile floors and sand-colored walls. Bathrooms are beautifully maintained with tub/shower combinations. Restaurants are colorful enough, and the food is varied enough, so that you shouldn't become bored with the full-board arrangement.
All-you-can-eat dinners, Caribbean seafood, Mexican specialties, barbecue nights, and Dominican specialties are some of the choices available.
Playa Bayahibe is arguably the most stunning beach along the Caribbean side of the country. A bonus: close proximity to Altos de Chávon, Parque Nacional del Este, and many other attractions.
