Our Story

Owners Michael and Sylvia Livingston dreamed up this idea while on vacation-Sylvia simply told her husband “One day we should open a beach bar and restaurant”. Like all good husbands, he listened to his wife’s advice! Having 4 decades of experience in restaurants all over the USA, Michael knew he understood the business but needed a partner who understood the culture of the Dominican, so he brought on Executive Chef Frisnert Lubin. Together, they created the recipes and menu before you and used Chef Lubin’s Caribbean expertise to give Dominican Flair to Michael and Sylvia’s concept.

Here at Castaways, we hope you will feel relaxed as if you’re on a Caribbean Vacation- because you are! Enjoy the calming sounds of the waves crashing at the ocean before you while sipping on a creamy pina colada. Then explore the menu and sample some of Chef Lubin’s fresh seafood and other delicacies. And don’t forget to save room for dessert as all our dessert are scratch made in house. Don’t worry, if you eat too much a hammock under the palms will be waiting! We are so glad you came to see us here in our little corner of paradise and hope you will come back soon! Chow!
