"Nestled in Samana lies the serene Playa Estillero, a quaint fishing village with a tranquil atmosphere and a small population. The beach is a true gem, adorned with lush greenery and towering trees that add to its natural beauty. Although my experience was slightly marred by pesky mosquitoes and insects, I remain hopeful that with further development, the beach will flourish..."
