The rooms were quiet, the view peaceful. Rooms were spacious and contained everything of comfort. The play room with pool table was nice as well as kids club. But rate with breakfast included offered tiny portions and you couldn’t even request an extra toast. Increase your portions or let the guests order food to fill their bellies if you truly offer complimentary breakfast. The tv with a cable box didn’t quite work. We felt truly cut off from digital world and enjoyed the calm ambiance of Bannister hotel. We were glad we chose this location despite it not being all Inclusive and offering tiny portions in ala carts breakfast.

Excellent attentions and the facilities were the best, definitely one of the best experiences, I recommend it. I want to highlight someone in particular is a young woman named Yelaine from the main reception we received the best hospitality from her.

Such a beautiful hotel! My boyfriend and I were in awe of the ocean view from our room. The service was amazing, especially Yelaine! She gave us a tour of the hotel and showed us to our room. Definitely recommend to anyone visiting Samana!

The room was lovely but for my entire stay there was no hot water. I had a king sized bed, in a separate bedroom. A couch and a Kitchen. Their was good food available on site though if you were staying for a while the choices would be limited. The compound is a quick drive to Samaná. It is it quiet and peaceful.

On the 3rd -6th of February, we stayed at the Bannister hotel. The hotel reception was amazing. We were allowed to check in much earlier than normal time and this stuff spoke English very well. They also matched the lowest price on booking.com which was great and saved us lots of money. The rooms were very beautiful, spacious and very clean. We had the ocean view which was very pretty with pretty sunsets, and overlooked the yachts. They have few restaurants with different types of food and they also have a food market where you can buy things if you want to cook or water and alcoholic drinks. This was definitely one of the best experience I had as a traveler. I would definitely recommend this hotel any time, a special thanks to one of the staff members Yelaine who also gave us nice recommendations for where we can go during our stay there like Plats Rincon, whale watching any many. They also recommended drivers to pick us up from the hotel and take us where we were going. Loved it and we would stay here again.
