What "Costambar" covers at this price
Costambar is the low-rise villa and condo community immediately west of Puerto Plata, behind its own entrance off the Carretera Luperón, with a small beach, a handful of restaurants and mostly rental homes rather than big resorts. The rate covers the whole community including the hillside streets above the beach. Because almost every booking here is a private house, the useful information is not the hotel name but the villa name, street and the caretaker or property manager's contact — the roads inside Costambar are unsigned in places and a driver who is guessing at night will lose you fifteen minutes.
