The beach infront of the hotel is very nice, however the accesibility to the place is very bad, there is nothing nearby: no restaurants, no tours, no stores or supermarkets. Moreover the owner of the hotel, doesn't care to help you or provide options to schedule tours to go to Cayo Arena. If you can't hire a car, the best option is to not go or think for a tour from Puerto Plata in case you really wanna go to Cayo Arena.
