Where Natura Cabana sits and where we stop
Natura Cabana Boutique Hotel & Spa sits apart from central Cabarete on the road toward Encuentro beach, a few minutes past the town's main restaurant strip. It is a small eco-styled property with a single unmarked-looking driveway that first-time visitors often drive past, so the driver already knows the turning rather than relying on a signpost. Allow the same 85 to 105 minutes from STI as the rest of the Cabarete zone, since the extra distance toward Encuentro is minor.
