Hotel Larimar? - 2007/01/03 21:19 We have booked a fortnights vacation at the Hotel Larimar starting mid June 2007. It was a super deal, has anyone stayed there? I have looked up barahona on your site and it loooks beautiful. We are not after a mad disco crazed 2 week vacation - we are after a chill out, read, sunbathe relax vacation. So it looks kinda good in that respect. I wondered if any one out there has stayed in the Larimar and can give us some pointers or just tell us what your vacation was like? We are very excited and cant wait to come over....
Thanks alot for everything

Re:Hotel Larimar? - 2007/01/09 20:53 Dear Jennifer,
Barcelo Hotel Costa Larimar is a smallish (by todays new hotel building standards) run hotel located right on the beach front overlooking the Caribbean sea. It is a friendly and professionaly run hotel in a spectacularly beautiful part of the Dominican republic.
The hotel does not qualify for a mega 5 star de luxe resort, but the food is of a good standard, the rooms all have wonderful views to gaze out on(spacious and large too) and it is a great location to see parts of the Real Dominican Republic without being trapped in a huge all inclusive complex resort. The hotel is all inclusive but retains its independence and there are some great tours and trips to take while you are staying there.
A lot of people visit Barhaona for the beautiful beaches and it is famous for its larimar mines, bird watching haunts and the massive Lake Enriquillo where you can see the flamingos, iguanas and be careful - crocodiles too! You can see alot of the countryside by going on Outback Safari for the day, just simply click on their banner when it flashes up on the top of your screen here on the website or go to our excursions section and find out more about this incredible tour.
Please check out our description of Barahona as a place to visit on our website, go to the top of this page and click on Dom Rep Travel then go down to Resort Guides and just click on Barahona.
Feel free to write a review on the site after your holiday and I hope you have a brilliant time staying in Barcelo Hotel Costa Larimar. I am envious you are coming to such a beautiful part of the country (wish I could get the time off)!!!!
Best wishes and keep in touch
