This is a quaint, family run hotel where everyone makes you feel at home, very casual, local, the rooms are basic and VERY clean, the beach is beautiful, the food is excellent. Very close to the main street for walks at night, shopping, and practicing Spanish. This is the only place I will stay in DR. more

This Feb. will be our fifth stay at the Zapata. We stay for a month. This cozy bed and breakfast is closer to the beach than any other hotel I have ever seen anywhere. The beach is literally at your door. The Boca beach is beautiful, swept clean every morning with a natural lagoon guarded by a long and beautiful... more

Hotel Zapata exceeded my expectations for a small non inclusive Hotel. All the staff were friendly and could not do enough for us. Everything was 'No Trouble!', and they meant it. From great value internet and international phone access, to putting my large case in storage, while myself and my Girl Friend went to see another part of the country.... more

Three time guest says> In Boca Chica, DR, you can't beat the Hostal Zapata for value. Very nice rooms, albeit not luxurious. TV, AC in plentiful supply. Security is great, you don't have to worry about items going missing. The location is perfect, a few blocks off the main street, right on the beach. The staff is friendly and helpful.... more

Well, I use tripadvisor a lot to help choose hotels, but this is the first review I've ever written. I guess it's about time I contribute, but also's an indication of how much I love Hotel Zapata in Boca Chica. I've been staying at Zapata for about the past five years, and it is by far my favorite hotel in... more

Family run hotel. Great service, great beach, great price. We go back every year. The staff takes good care of you. This is not an all exclusive resort (that's why we like it) and the value for the money spent is wonderful! more

The owners go out of their way to make sure your stay is pleasant and relaxing. The people at the hotel are extremely helpful. The food... more

I have stayed with Marta and her wonderful staff three times now while in the Dominican Republic. They are like family to me. The hotel is perfect - from early morning coffee gazing at the ocean to the intimate beach bar for afternoon/evening cocktails. I like staying in the suite - each as a beach view, kitchenette, and plenty of... more

I have stayed at Hotel Zapata 8 times and would not stay anywhere else in Boca Chica. It is a family owned business and its owners are key to what makes it great. Each time I go and stay at Zapata I meet others who share the same opinion that they would stay nowhere else. The food is wonderful! Marta's... more
