Your Saved Properties

Walk down from the pool terrace and the sand is right there — a full stretch of private beach with a dock running into Minitas Bay. Casa Minitas sits in Punta Minitas, on the same shoreline as the resort's Minitas Beach Club, so the villa's own sand opens onto the bay the rest of the resort walks to. Eight bedrooms sleep sixteen, with an included chef handling all the meal...

Pour drinks on the back lawn the first afternoon and three views line up at once: Dye Fore fairways below, the Marina past them, the Caribbean to the horizon. Villa Palmeras sits on the Vista Chavón bluff, eight bedrooms built around a central open-air pavilion, sixteen guests, an included cook handling all the meals. The arrival walk crosses a wooden footbridge over a...

Watch the youngest kids run barefoot across the lawn toward the cliff edge and stop a long way short of the rocks. Casa Aguila sits at the end of Punta Águila, the resort's southwestern cliff promontory — open Caribbean on three sides and no neighbouring villa in your sightline. Seven bedrooms, fourteen guests, an included cook handling all the meals. Pour a drink and t...

Cross the vaulted stone bridge into El Cocotal and the water garden runs beneath you. Ten bedrooms sleep twenty across two acres of grounds in Vista Chavón, with an included cook handling all the meals. The fit: a family reunion or a friend group of twenty who came for everyone in one place with room to spread out, three or four families together for the week, or a private...

Step through the front door at Villa Volcán and a single palm tree stands inside the house, growing out of a square pool of green tile under an open skylight. Set on one level in El Ingenio, the villa sits at the edge of a wide fairway, with mature palms framing the lawn. Five bedrooms sleep ten, and the included cook handles all the meals. Mornings start with drinks at...

Pour the first round of drinks at sundown and the 8th fairway of Dye Fore is right there past the lawn, with the Caribbean a thin blue line beyond. La Florentina is a brand-new six-bedroom estate in Rio Arriba. It sleeps twelve across six suites, with an included cook for all the meals. Mornings split early — three or four people up first on the back terrace with cups i...

Walk the cobblestones of Altos de Chavón in the late afternoon and the path home runs along the bluff: river canyon on one side, Caribbean on the other. River House is a five-bedroom villa in Vista Chavón, set on the cliff where the Chavón meets the sea, sleeping ten, with an included cook who handles all meals. Most days, lunch is served on the covered terrace with swe...

Step out to the lower terrace at sundown. The fire pit catches and the cliff drops into open Caribbean a few feet beyond. Ocean Bliss sits at the southern tip of Punta Minitas, a contemporary statement villa elevated on its own coral promontory above the water. Six bedrooms sleep fourteen across multi-couple groups and multi-generation families, with an included cook handl...

Twelve guests settle into Villa Le Blanc by sundown the first night, and the pool pavilion is where everyone gathers. The villa sits on a Dye Fore fairway plot in Las Palmas, with the Casa de Campo Marina close enough to walk back from dinner. Six bedrooms sleep twelve across the property, with an included cook handling all the meals. The kitchen has two islands wide en...

At Casa Bonita the back of the villa opens onto a lake fronting The Links, sunroom windows folded open on three sides and the lawn rolling to the water. Four bedrooms sleep eight in a Golf Villa Phase V lakefront villa, with an included cook handling all the meals. The fit: a family of eight in their own rooms, a friend group built around the sunroom, or two couples who ca...

Walk down the brick path from the back lawn and the sand opens into your own crescent cove behind the tree line. Villa Mar Azul sits at the east end of Punta Minitas, an eight-bedroom beachfront villa with its own private stretch of sand. Sleeps sixteen, with an included cook handling all the meals. The pool runs along a terracotta deck above the sand. The thatched pavi...

Step out onto the back terrace at Los Mangos and the lawn runs for a full acre. It's wide enough to lose a soccer ball in, with the pool stretching down one side. The villa sits in the Los Mangos pocket of the resort, a short walk down to Minitas Beach with towels under your arm. Seven bedrooms sleep sixteen, with an included cook handling all the meals. Breakfast on th...

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...

Walk in and the ceiling opens to sky. The front of the villa is a courtyard garden you cross before you reach anyone. Aqua Vista is the villa for a multi-generational family or three or four couples — six bedrooms in Los Lagos, Minitas Beach a short walk down the road, an included cook handling all the meals. By mid-morning the group spreads through the outdoor pavilion...

At Villa Agua, you arrive across a travertine path that floats over a shallow reflecting pond, palms standing in the water on either side. This is a five-bedroom contemporary family villa set into the Barranca hillside, with sea views from the upper floor and an included cook handling all the meals for ten. The villa is built around water. The curved pool runs the lengt...
