El personal amable, muy agradable un ambiente familiar acogedor .
La familiaridad que sentía en una casa no un hotel como en casa.
Disponibilidad del.dueño y del personal
Super emplacement direct sur la plage . Le restaurant est excellent et le personnel très sympathique, notamment au restaurant . La qualité du petit dejeuner .
Un peu de bruit dans la chambre à cause d’une soufflerie
Es un lugar súper tranquilo y el ambiente es sumamente familiar! El personal se encarga de siempre tener tanto la playa como todo el alojamiento súper limpio y organizado. El manager te ayudará con todo lo que necesites, es un hombre muy muy amable.
No tuve ningún inconveniente durante mi estancia pero si agradeceríamos que las meseras estuvieran un poco mas atenta ya que constantemente teníamos que llamarlas para que se acordaran de tomar nuestra orden. La comida estuvo exquisita y el lugar fue maravilloso
Excellent beautiful

El servicio, desde la reserva. El contacto y excelentes atenciones del equipo.
Lindo lugar, buena comida y buena playa
Los botes parqueados en la playa, los botes pasando por el mismo lugar que te bañas, me topé con el ancla de un bote y por poco choco con ella en el fondo .. levantan algas con el motor
Location was great. The food was excellent and the staff was amazing. Clean, comfortable, and beautiful.
Nothing to dislike.
Struttura con 2 sole camere da letto e per questo molto esclusiva.Si trova direttamente sulla spiaggia e dispone di un ottimo ristorante. Il gestore Juan Carlos è una persona eccezionale estremamente gentile che offre ottimi consigli e organizza escursioni private in barca.Da fare assolutamente quella a Cayo Arena la mattina molto presto per evitare i numerosi turisti che cominciano ad arrivare in catamarano dalle 10 in poi.

Directly on the beach, beautiful sunsets
L'emplacement et belle chambre avec vue sur la mer !!!
Le personnel désagréables et très lent en cuisine.
L’emplacement est bien , la vus , le personnel souriant accueillant , le service petit déjeuner super bon déjeuner également rien à dire sur la nourriture,.
Le bruit le bruit jusqu’à pas d’heure horrible , la musique qu’on entend jusqu’à notre chambre 5h du matin …
L’accueil, le service, la vue, la qualité des aménagements et la beauté du lieu, à l’intérieur comme à l’extérieur, le restaurant et le bar servent des plats et des cocktails délicieux!!!
Blue Island Punta Rucia is just AMAZING! The staff is fabulous, attentive, courteous, pleasant, just perfect! I wish I knew the names of all the staff because I would name them all! The manager, Juan Carlos is the BEST, always available and with an answer to all of our questions! The included breakfast was just DELICIOUS! The room was cozy, clean, comfortable, just great! The menu for the dinner has enough items to order from and all of them were DELICIOUS! This beautiful small hotel only has three rooms, my husband and I were in one, my brother and his wife in another, and the third room is used by the manager. This place is so cozy and perfect! It was a blessing!
Everything was perfect! The only part that I did not like was that I had to leave! I wish we were able to stay longer! I am so looking forward to coming back to this great place. It was an amazing experience!
Le cadre est magnifique, l’accueil est incroyable, l’on s’occupe de vous aux petits oignons. Juan Carlos est très gentil. La nourriture est excellente. Et l’endroit est très calme. Dédicace également à Kleiby le capitaine de notre excursion avec l’hôtel à Cayo Arena, vivez cette expérience, vous en prendrez plein les yeux et le capitaine est un amour.

Die Lage ist ein Traum. Hotel sehr sauber. Zimmer von Ikea und etwas abgenutzt.
Bis zum Frühstück war alles wunderbar. Dann war der Tag gelaufen. Man bucht in einem der teureren Hotels der Gegend Zimmer mit Frühstück und bekommt eine kleinere Auswahl als in einfachsten Hotels. Eine Tasse Kaffee eine Auswahl an kleinen Frühstückskomponenten und für alles andere wollen Sie einen Aufpreis! So etwas habe ich noch nirgends erlebt!
The accommodation was very nice, clean, and well maintained. A perfect place for a peaceful countryside getaway by the ocean. All the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious, especially the pizza.
Everything was good
Prime beachfront location with a beautiful beach! Outstanding service and not to mention the delicious menu options at their restaurant 😋 🙌💯 Very comfortable bedroom suite perfect for a couple's get away. Owners were there and were very nice and on top of everything! Maye, the restaurant manager, was amazingly courteous and even brought the green bananas for my mom who is diabetic and could only have that item for breakfast 😀 They also arranged the tour to Cayo Arena and that was also an amazing experience! I just regret not staying longer but will definitely plan to be back soon 🙏🏽🌞
Trotz Touristenflaute, wir waren quasi alleine, war die Küche jederzeit offen und es wurde gut gekocht. Haus sehr gepflegt, nirgens irgendwelche Rostflecken trotz Meernähe.
Location, staff,
It was all great
Just like the pictures
We liked everything
Great Location on the beach, spacious room, great staff

La ubicacion del lugar es espectacular! Un lugar paradisíaco frente a una d elas playas de arena blanca mas hermosas del pais. La comida es 100% recomendable aunque los jugos pueden mejorar la cantidad de azúcar, endulzar menos.
El aire acondicionado es un poco molesto debido a vibraciones.
Ocean view
La ubicacion frente al mar, hotel super pequeño, solo 3 habitaciones. Se desayuna mirando el mar a pasos, eso no tiene precio. Desayuno a la carta correcto. Super atento el personal, especialmente de recepcion.
Solo que el horario de cena terminaba extremadamente temprano, tipo 19.30.
Todo. Las instalaciones muy bonitas, la playa hermosa y las atenciones son excelentes. Juan Carlos el manager es 1A ✨ siempre atento y muy servicial.
Nada. Todo es excelente.
Everything!!!!! Beautiful place
El lugar es bonito, el tema es que solo tiwn dos habitaciones, y durante el día se llena de gente que va a pasar el día, con lo cual es demasiada gente en un lugar no tan grande. La playa es linda, pero dentro del agua hay muchas plantas en el fondo, con lo cual, te la pasas caminando dentro de agua pisando pasto y algas, se llena de botes. Muy ruidoso todo, demasiada gente
Demasiado caro para lo que ofrecen el desayuno es limitado, a la carta, solo café y pan con huevo revuelto, no podes repetir ni el café ni lo que se come
The BEACH
Always sold out :(
El servicio, la amabilidad y las instalaciones.
Nada!
Las vistas desde el complejo definitivamente fueron top, sobretodo los atardeceres, la playa una maravilla, aguas cristalinas y limpia. Las habitaciones son muy cómodas y amplias, el personal es amable y servicial. En general todo funciona de maravilla.
Mi única sugerencia es que la habitación no teníamos cafetera y para los amantes de café como yo, es un must, pero me informaron que en las próximas semanas las instalarían.
Amazing experience at Blue Island Punta Rucia! The staff is absolutely incredible—super friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything you need. The restaurant is fantastic, with delicious, fresh food and a beautiful seaside setting. But the real highlight was the private excursions to Cayo Arena—100% worth it! Easily the best thing I’ve seen in the Dominican Republic. We saw so many colourful fish, enjoyed crystal-clear waters, and had a completely personalised experience. Highly recommended! Hope to be back soon.
I actually liked everything: location, stuff, the room and the restaurant. It was like "home away from home". The manager Juan Carlos and the girls were amazing! The property is located right on the beach (cant beat that location). Air condition rooms with small fridge and smart TV. Wi fi signal was great in the room. Endless supply of drinking water and tea from the property. The restaurant is amazing and the included breakfast was delicious! I will recommend this property to my friends. Our two nights stay were magical! Thank you Blue Island Punta Rucia and Juan Carlos!
The view from the room
We didn't have high expectations, and this place surprised us in many ways. The host was just amazing. He was so caring, supportive, and very helpful. He went beyond, extra miles to answer all our questions, help us feel comfortable and enjoy our stay. He arranged us a boat to Cayo Arena; we had great food and the best memories here. We'd highly recommend this place!

Great service and very kind personel
Location in a quiet (apart from merengue/bachata as everywhere in RD) fishing village with little tourism, and this 2-bedroom (+villas) is one of few, giving the place a feeling of stepping back 30 years. Although busy and more lively everywhere on weekends with Dominicans from Santiago etc. Staff lovely, location so on the beach, water warm beautiful calm for swimming. Food excellent. Comfy bed, beautiful spacious room.
Nothing. As a suggestion though: the menu could be expanded a bit. I found that the whole village was offering mostly the same menu and after a while, I longed for more variety. (See Mosquito boutique hotel, Las Terrenas for more ideas!). Everything they did cook at Blue Island was beautifully done.

Amazing hotel, great staff and stunning beach!
No complaints whatsoever. Amazing place.
The location was great
No on site parking and the wifi signal was terrible if you need it.
Ample room, good air conditioning, location
Needs some refurbishing, shower hardly worked, w/c the same (stuck), breakfast starts too late (9am)
The location is great, the host Juan Carlos and the staff were great. The food was really good and the barman superb. Really felt at home.
On a stunning, quiet beach, this intimate, small hotel is a gem! Great manager and staff. The on-site restaurant and bar are also very good.
Great location ! directly on the beach.
Juan Carlos and his staff were accommodating , welcoming and made us feel at home. The food was excellent , the room was comfortable and the location was perfect. The staff was able to make really precious recommendations about neighboring businesses like tours and restaurants. The hotel is situated right on the beach and the view from the room that we were in was amazing. At night you can hear the sound of the waves crashing on the shore. The beach offers many activities and restaurants. The locals are incredibly friendly and accommodating when it comes to requests. Haggling for prices is highly suggested. :) I'll miss the conversations with Juan Carlos and his incredible staff. I can't recommend this location enough.
Sometimes neighbors have very loud parties. During our 10 days stay this happened only one night .Of course this is in no way Blue Island's fault. So it doesn't affect my 5 stars for this review.
- Everything. Location, gorgeous beach, availability of services, very helpful and friendly staff.
- No complaints, everything was fantastic.
The attention that we received was exceptional, Juan was very attentive and went above and beyond to make sure that we were not missing anything
Everything was great.
Excellent service and very friendly staff. They make welcome
Everything was very good
At the end of the beach so very quiet in the evening. Great accommodations and great and attentive staff.
Liked everything!!!
Right on the beach. Very friendly and helpful staff.
