Villa Serena is a tranquil, beachfront boutique hotel tucked along the shoreline of Las Galeras, a small village on the Samana Peninsula. With just 21 rooms, each offering sweeping sea views and private balconies or terraces, the atmosphere is quiet, breezy, and deeply relaxed. The hotel’s architecture blends colonial character with lush tropical landscaping, creating a space that feels both timeless and welcoming.
Mornings begin with a well-loved breakfast, often served outdoors beneath the palms. Guests can stretch into the day with yoga on a seaside deck or grab a complimentary kayak or bicycle to explore the nearby coast and trails. The on-site pool is ringed by flowering gardens, ideal for unwinding after a swim or snorkel session. Rooms are simple but charming, with hammocks, rocking chairs, air conditioning, and soft-toned decor.
The staff offers the kind of easy, attentive service that doesn’t need to announce itself—quietly ensuring guests settle in and stay relaxed.
Set on the edge of Las Galeras village, Villa Serena enjoys a location that’s both peaceful and well-connected. The surrounding area is framed by palm trees, gentle coves, and walkable beaches. The town itself has a mellow rhythm, with fruit stands, beach bars, and small eateries just a few minutes away on foot.
