Quick answer: Best Sustainable Hotels in Dominican Republic
The best eco friendly stays in Dominican Republic, hand picked from certified retreats to off grid hideaways.
How we choose the best sustainable stays in Dominican Republic
The sustainable stays that give you the real Dominican Republic, run by people rooted in it, with renewable power, careful water and food grown close by, the kind of place that puts genuine effort into the planet, with the wholesome, thoughtful touches you respect and a comfort you come back for.
Choose the island and accommodation first, then compare the actual systems each property describes. An off grid supply, solar panels connected to the grid and solar hot water provide different services.
Personally, I will always stay at Serafina Organic Farm because they have just three spacious 2br villas on a large organic farm where you can harvest your own food.
If these sustainable stays in Dominican Republic are your kind of place, you will also like our off the grid Caribbean stays or most secluded eco stays across the islands.. For the wider region, see our guide to the best sustainable hotels across the Caribbean.
Use the map and quick facts on each card to find your fit, then book direct. Price range, sustainability features and the nearest airport are listed for every stay.

- Cabarete, Dominican Republic
Natura Cabana Boutique Hotel & Spa
Natura Cabana is a solar powered, locally owned boutique eco lodge and spa on the Cabarete coast, made for couples, wellness travellers and surfers.
Natura Cabana Boutique Hotel & Spa sits right on a quiet stretch of north coast beach just outside Cabarete, a cluster of thatched bungalows tucked into tropical gardens where the sound of the sea is never far away. It has the unhurried, personal feel of a true boutique eco lodge rather than a resort, with a barefoot, back to nature rhythm to the days and the kitesurfing of Cabarete and Kite Beach just along the coast.

Samana Ecolodge
Samana Ecolodge is a solar powered, off grid, female owned eco lodge near the El Limón waterfall, ideal for adventurers and nature lovers.
Samana Ecolodge is a warm, intimate retreat tucked into the lush hills of El Limon, where the rainforest, the waterfall trails and the quiet pace of peninsula life set the tone. It feels less like a hotel and more like staying with a thoughtful friend who happens to live in one of the most beautiful pockets of the island, with home cooked meals, easy local knowledge and birdsong instead of traffic.
- Constanza, Dominican Republic
Villa Pajón Eco Lodge
Villa Pajón is a solar powered, off grid, locally owned eco lodge in the pine forests of Constanza, perfect for hikers, families and off grid escapers.
Villa Pajón Eco Lodge sits in the high pine country of Valle Nuevo at around 2,100 metres, where temperatures drop low enough for log fires and morning mist clings to the surrounding mountains. The remote setting at altitude makes it one of the most distinctive places to stay in the whole country, a world away from the coast.
- Paraíso, Barahona, Dominican Republic
Platon Ecolodge (Rancho Platon)
Platon Ecolodge is an off grid, locally owned riverside eco lodge in the hills above Paraíso, built for adventurous travellers and nature lovers.
Platon Ecolodge (Rancho Platon) is an off grid retreat tucked into the green hills above Paraiso, set among trees, waterfalls and natural rock pools where a cool river threads through the property. The mood is rustic and unhurried rather than polished and corporate, the kind of place where the river and the birdsong set the pace of your day.
