Maison Gautreaux

22 Rooms Hostel in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, very cheap for what you get. The best location in town, just a few meters from the sea and now with a new restaurant where you can find delicious international food.

The Maison Gautreaux is the original home of an old and highly respected Dominican family.



Room rates are a fraction of those charged at the luxury hotels just around the corner, but the rooms offer every comfort the travelers may be looking for. Comfort does not have to be expensive, especially valuable when one considers that the Dominican Republic is the number one tourist destination in the Caribbean, and the reasons are many. The DR has beautiful beaches, mountains, a variety of climates, a lively culture, fabulous art galleries -- the list goes on.

Guests at the Maison Gautreaux can walk to the historical Colonial City, a multi-block area of fascinating monuments, plazas, ruins, cathedrals, and it is the heart of the artistic life of the city. Restaurants and bars are plentiful, many of them located in buildings that are over 400 years old. Your stay will be enriched by visiting the many monuments, either on your own or with any one of the many companies offering tours of the area.

When you are in the Maison Gautreaux, you will have all the options you might wish, and at very reasonable rates. Rates may be negotiated for those who will require long-term stay.

We will do our best to make your stay a comfortable one. Come and enjoy the Dominican Republic, its attractions and the friendly people. We really do welcome our guests from overseas, and you will feel right at home here.
