How we work
Said plainly,written down.
Samaná is a place where plans move with the weather and the sea, where a day that is perfect in February is a different day in August, and where a good excursion usually comes down to somebody knowing which boat is going out that morning. When you write, the answer comes from someone who was on that road today.
- You tell us what you want
Quiet beach or lively one, early start or slow morning, with the family or on your own.
- We say what actually runs
When the sea favours a different island on your dates, we say so and offer the day that works.
- The price is agreed first
The figure in writing, on WhatsApp, before anything is charged.
- We are here afterwards
Same number, same person, the whole time you are on the peninsula.
Good to know
