THIS APART-HOTEL IS OFF THE OVERLY-BEATEN RESORT PATH - PERFECT FOR TOURIST WHO DESIRE TO SEE THE TROPICAL BEAUTY OF THIS AMAZING ISLAND, AND EXPERENCE THE FRIENDLY DOMINICAN CULTURE

Located on Highway 105, near Macao Beach
In the Village of EL Salado in the small City of La Ceiba
Part of Higuey, La Altagracia, Dominican Republic

Approximately 7.5 miles to Macao Beach (15 minute drive)
20 miles to Downtown Punta Cana
16 miles to Bavaro
22 minute drive to El Cortecito/ Los Corales
23 minute drive to Higuey (Central hub for La Altagracia Province- and Govt. offices).
40 minute drive to the Punta Cana Intl. Airport ( PUJ )
Direct highway access to the airport.

Once you turn off the main highway, opposite Macao Beach road, and pass the buggie group tours; the remainder of the drive is captivating. Mid-mountainous hills and well paved winding roads, passing through 3 clean, charming and typical small Dominican Villages. Lush and natural tropical landscape everywhere, mangos, oranges and banana fields; with some cattle grazing fields, small farms, local colmados (small roadside grocery stores), roadside fruit and vegetable stands, cold beer to go stops, cute locally owned clothing stores where you can find some good and fashionable bargains, small hardware stores, slightly used furniture / accessories stores (outdated, slightly damaged, or excess surplus donated or purchased from all-inclusive resorts nearby). Its common to pass a few Dominicans on horseback, perhaps some cows or goats in the street, Domino playing competitions, children playing, and everything else you might expect to see, respect and appreciate from the local villages where the kind, friendly and simple Dominican families thrive together, always welcoming foreign guests and passersby's.

Now that the Macao area is really developing with the new DREAMS resort, completion of the Macao beach boardwalk, plus more parking space and added beach dining amenities, with several new residential condos and villa communities breaking ground, or under construction now... this ApartHotel location is ideal!

15 minute drive to Macao, and approx. 23 minute drive to Higuey, considered the hub of Altragracia Province, is also located about a 20 minute drive, away from Macao direction. Beautiful mountain and tropical scenic drive.

The Owner of this Hotel never intended to own and operate a Hotel. She and her husband own 2 other active businesses, and she is very involved with the Macao Chamber of Commerce in continued improvements as the Macao area continues to grow and develop. She also has active children still living at home. The Owner purchased the Hotel while it was partially built from a neighbor friend who had ran into some economic challenges and couldn't afford to finish the construction. So, everything is like new. Much thought, time, labor, and expense was put into the finishing touches, including the covered formal dining area by the pool where families or business groups love to come and dine together. The well tiled areas everywhere (walls, pool, floors, balconies, patios and terraces). Cedar lined closets in every room to eliminate mold and mildew common to tropical areas. Extra sanitary equipment, sufficient lighting everywhere, cameras, and security so visitors always feel safe and secure. Even a back-up generator... just in case.

The ideal purchasers, according to the Owner, would be a husband-wife team, Investment group, or family that have a heart (like she does) for appreciating the simple local Dominican families and culture.

It is not uncommon for the Owner to promote FREE Pool-side parties or events, often with food or snacks, for the local children whose families are economically challenged.

However, from a business perspective, she knows this Hotel could be a super "Buy & Grow" or a "Buy-Wait-and Flip" investment opportunity. It was unfortunate the Hotel was largely finished just before the Covid-19 pandemic. Despite the bad timing, the Owner delights in knowing the local families adore her, and despite the pandemic challenges, she feels blessed she can keep her small hotel open, and that nearly everyday the Hotel makes a profit, with minimal marketing and advertising costs.

THE OWNER WILL TRAIN THE OPERATIONAL ASPECTS OF THIS APARTHOTEL TO THE NEW PURCHASERS
AND CURRENT EMPLOYEES ARE HOPING THEY CAN STAY... but not required.

An ideal day is when she is hosting both North American or European tourists, along with a few Dominican families. A great cultural education for both groups.
Even though there may be a language barrier... you would never know it when it comes to relaxing pool-side chats, or fun pool activities and dining.

Can't come to see this Hotel personally? No worries, I can take you there with me via a live "Virtual Tour" - No problem with internet at this Hotel.
I love going there... :)
