Best Nature Sustainable Hotels and Eco Friendly Stays in the Dominican Republic

What earns a place on this list is how these Dominican Republic nature stays sit inside the landscape rather than fenced off from it, like Serafina Organic Farm in Jamao al Norte, a working organic farm where the land itself is the stay and not just the view. Because so much Dominican countryside gets cleared and paved for resort sprawl, choosing a place like Serafina Organic Farm keeps real terrain alive instead of landscaped over.

Serafina Organic Farm grows its own food and keeps you among the crops and hills it tends, so the soil and habitat in the Dominican Republic stay healthy for the wildlife they support and for the guests who come after you.

We look for that same instinct in stays that trade resort polish for real terrain, like Villa Pajon Eco Lodge up in the cloud-forest pines around Constanza, and Tubagua Eco Lodge set in the open green hills above the north coast. Because the families and rural communities around Villa Pajon Eco Lodge and Tubagua Eco Lodge depend on those forests and hillsides, protecting that land is protecting their own future, and yours.
