Bayahíbe, an undiscovered paradise that now shines with its own light
Located on the southeastern coast of the Dominican Republic and bathed by the Caribbean Sea we find the charming town of Bayahibe, a place that captivated the businessman Gabriel Serrano thanks to its people and nature since he discovered it a few years ago. Bayahibe is known for being the departing point to the two most dazzling gems in the Caribbean: Saona Island and Catalina Island. Its beautiful beaches, characterized by its fine white sand and crystal-clear waters, are the perfect setting for those looking to get away from everything and immerse themselves in a peaceful environment.
The tourism offer that Gabriel Serrano is promoting in Bayahibe with its two recent openings SOFICU Hotel On the beach and SOFICU Hotel Edén is committed to sustainability and the local community, integrating ecological practices and collaborating with local suppliers to promote the economic development of the region.
Both hotels are the perfect destination for those looking for a luxurious getaway, whether for a romantic honeymoon, an unforgettable family vacation, or a rejuvenating retreat.
The social work of Dr. Gabriel Serrano in Bayahibe
Dr. Gabriel Serrano has always shown a deep concern to help, care for, and improve the lives of those most in need. This dedication is reflected in the creation of the Dr. Gabriel Serrano Foundation in the Dominican Republic, a non-profit organization that promotes the improvement of health and education for Dominicans without resources and that has the support of the Dr. Gabriel Serrano Medical Clinic in Bayahibe.
For over 50 years, Dr. Gabriel Serrano has been a fundamental pillar at the Dominican Dermatological Institute and Skin Surgery Dr. Huberto Bogaert Díaz, the most prestigious institution in Latin America in the dermatological field, with a capacity to care for more than 2,000 patients a day.
