EXCLUSIVE YET IN TOUCH WITH LOCAL LIFE Nestled in lush tropical gardens with a 105 foot swimming pool, directly fronting Playa Las Ballenas, known as one of the Dominican Republic’s finest beaches, at 50 yards, our penthouse offers a unique blend of seclusion, easy access to a wide array of leisure activities, and an authentic Caribbean way of life. Far from mass tourism hot spots such as Punta Cana or Cancun, Las Terrenas is still a fishing village, where foreigners and friendly locals mingle in everyday life.

Far from mass tourism hot spots such as Punta Cana or Cancun, Las Terrenas is still a fishing village, where foreigners and friendly locals mingle in everyday life. This melting pot of local and foreign influences is maybe best exemplified by the quality and creativity of Las Terrenas restaurants, which fuse French haute cuisine, traditional local recipes and fresh sea food ingredients. Make sure you enjoy some of the excellent restaurants in the Fisherman’s village (‘Pueblo de Los Pescadores’) about 1 mile away, on the sea front, some with French chefs. Not only will Las Terrenas offer you a comprehensive range of water sport activities, it also stands out as one of the last spots of unspoiled natural beauty in the Caribbean. TOGETHER TIME YET PRIVATE SPACES Our penthouse is perfect for a couple in search of a romantic retreat or for friends/families wishing to spend time together yet welcoming some privacy. Its 2,800 sq ft of interior space, exotic wood floors and high ceilings, and high-end colonial furniture will make you feel very cozy. The apartment situated on the 3rd and top floor is flanked by two separate terraces measuring 890 and 750 sq ft, each enjoying the same gorgeous view on the tropical garden, swimming pool and ocean. Each terrace has both a porch and an open space to accommodate your wishes for sun or shade. The east terrace has a seaview jaccuzi with 5 rooms including a lying one. You will enjoy their absolute privacy: no peeking neighbor! Each of the three bedrooms is individually decorated, with king size bed as well as ensuite bathroom. Two of them open onto the terrace for enhanced intimacy. Our penthouse includes all amenities one can expect from such high-end accommodation: a private elevator dedicated to luggage, a vast modern gourmet kitchen with Center Island that is fully equipped (including 2 ovens, dish-washer, microwave, American-style refrigerator, water cooler, wine cellar, etc.), a BBQ, air conditioning in the bedrooms (not in the living room), LCD cable TV, Fiber WIFI with download speed of 80 Mbps , safe, laundry room etc. PRIVACY, COMFORT AND SAFETY This exclusive property combines the best of both worlds: you will treasure the privacy of a quiet and small residence while enjoying services usually associated with hotels – gated entrance and 24/7 surveillance, daily cleaning, gardening and pool maintenance, Should you wish to free yourself even more from everyday duties, we selected competent and reliable personnel for you who will take care of grocery shopping, cooking, babysitting etc. you can hire on demand for approximately $ US 5 an hour. The residence was designed to preserve the essence of the area by respecting the lakes and green areas in order to offer each resident his own special place. You will find a salt river running through the garden down to the sea. The penthouse is equipped with 3 king size beds in the 3 bedrooms and 2 queensize convertible couches positioned in the living room, making it ideal for 8 people. We can accomodate up to 10 people thanks also to 2 queensize air inflatable mattresses and 2 individual folding beds. There are many nice restaurants nearby. You will enjoy a sailing club just on the beach front with whom we negociated for you a 50 % discount on windsurf and boat rentals + kayak and paddleboard at 2 USD per use. Electricity is included is the base rate as well as daily housekeeping. Fiber internet download speed = 80 Mbps Smoking is not allowed indoor but OK on the various terraces which are partly covered We are at the disposal of our guests for any question prior to the stay. Our Property management agency has been located in Las Terrenas for over 15 years. They are very connected with locals and reliable. They are available by phone and whats app 7/7 24/24 and live 5 minutes away. They can take care of logistical aspects of your stay if you wish (including transport from/to the airport) and they will welcome you upon arrival. More
