What guests think
At The Bannister Hotel & Yacht Club by Mint, guests highlight tranquil marina views, quiet grounds, and friendly staff, while also noting dated rooms, intermittent maintenance issues, occasional power outages, and a remote location that generally requires a car.
The pools are praised, but there is no beach on site. Dining ranges from very good breakfasts and some strong restaurant experiences to limited menus and items occasionally out of stock. Expect a peaceful, low key stay best suited to travelers who prioritize relaxation and privacy over beach access or city convenience.

Location
Quiet, scenic marina setting a short drive from Samaná. It is remote and not walkable to town, so a car is useful and taxis can be costly, with limited ride-hailing options.
