La Madera - All-Wood Bill Cox Villa & Catalina Sunsets | Punta Aguila, Casa de Campo, Dominican Republic

La Madera - A Timeless Casa de Campo Icon

Step through the wooden lattice gate at La Madera and the brick driveway curves under mature trees, past low wood pavilions and a tropical garden, out to a clifftop lawn with the open Caribbean Sea past the seawall. The villa sits in Punta Águila, Casa de Campo's western cliff pocket, and is one of the resort's earliest homes — designed by Bill Cox entirely in natural wood. Five bedrooms sleep ten across a multi-pavilion compound, with an included cook handling the meals.

Mornings stay easy. Walk barefoot along a wood verandah with a drink, the sea audible past the trees. Pine and tropical hardwood panelling runs throughout — the kind of finish you can't order new. By midday the group has split: half on the pool deck above the rocky shoreline, the rest between the private fitness room and the long outdoor table under the old shade tree. The pool faces west toward Catalina Island, and most evenings end on the lawn with sundowners and dinner outside under the open sky.

The villa sits on the resort's quiet western edge, a short cart ride from Teeth of the Dog (ranked the Caribbean's top course by the World Golf Awards) and the Hotel & Spa. Minitas Beach and the Equestrian Center are both close by, with the Marina and Altos de Chavón a longer drive at the other end of the resort. La Madera is the villa to book when the resort's original wood architecture matters more than the newest finishes, and the group is small enough to spread out across the pavilions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the cook prepare during a stay at La Madera?

The cook handles the meals at the villa — breakfast and lunch — working with the group's preferences and any dietary needs you share in advance. Dinner can be arranged in advance as an after-hours service. Most groups eat outside under the old shade tree at one end of the property, with the sea in view; the indoor dining room seats eight under a vaulted wood ceiling. Grocery shopping and any specialist menu requests are arranged through the resort concierge before arrival, so you don't have to plan anything before you land.

How far is La Madera from the championship golf courses?

Teeth of the Dog is a short cart ride from the villa, with The Links right next door — both tee off from the central golf area on the resort's southern side. Teeth of the Dog is ranked the Caribbean's top course by the World Golf Awards. Dye Fore at Altos de Chavón is a longer drive at the eastern end of the resort. Tee times are booked directly with the Casa de Campo® golf office and green fees are paid at the pro shop. Note: golf at Casa de Campo is not complimentary, and green fees apply for every player.

How does La Madera compare with Villa Farallon and Villa Miramar in Punta Águila?

All three villas sit in the resort's quiet western pocket but suit different trips. Villa Farallon is a ten-bedroom clifftop estate with a fire pit promontory and a cinema, built for large multi-generational gatherings. Villa Miramar fronts a private cove with thatched beachfront pavilions and an infinity pool at the rock edge, for groups who want the beach attached. La Madera is the smallest and most architectural of the three: five bedrooms, all-wood Bill Cox design, multi-pavilion layout, and a clifftop pool on a stone deck above the rocky shoreline. Best for two to three couples who want a quieter, design-led stay.

What makes La Madera architecturally significant?

The villa was designed by Bill Cox, the architect behind many of Casa de Campo's earliest private homes, and is one of the resort's original architectural gems. It's built entirely from natural wood, with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and an intricate lattice ceiling treatment over the primary suite that's lit from behind. The layout is a multi-pavilion compound, with separate buildings linked by covered verandahs so each bedroom feels like its own quiet space within the property. Few homes in Casa de Campo carry the same heritage character.
