Mediterranean beach house
Fourteen suites bring Mediterranean restraint to the Boca Paila sand, swapping thatched party bars for quiet days by the waves.
“It’s effortlessly bohemian and has one of the most enviable beachfront settings on the coast, away from the crowds.”
What it’s good at
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
Instead of embracing the bohemian-chic aesthetic that’s so popular in the area, this boutique hotel is modern and Mediterranean-inspired.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
The quiet southern stretch of Boca Paila runs outside, wedged between coastal mangroves and open Caribbean surf.
The rooms
Suites have polished cement floors and minimalist built-in furniture. Select categories add private rooftop plunge pools facing the sea.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
A stone-bordered lagoon pool sits amid tropical palms, flanked by timber decking and striped sun loungers.
At the table
Piedra Ladrillo cooks daily Caribbean catch in a wood-fired stone oven, served on an open-air deck facing the sea.
