The house is beautiful and spacious. We had 17 people and it was plenty big to accommodate all of us. The bedrooms were quiet even when people were hanging out in the common space playing pool or at the bar. The outdoor space is fantastic and the pool is great for kids of all ages. We had 2 toddlers that were able to walk around in the shallow end. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. They made drinks, brought towels and were always around to help. The chef was amazing. Every meal was fantastic. Also, very easy to get to the golf clubhouse and beach club via golf cart. We would definitely stay here again

This property is amazing and the staff are fantastic. The butler and chef were attentive and the food was delicious. We have zero issues with the service or villa itself. What we did not know, was that this property is situated in the middle of the early stages of development of this resort. Ours was one of only two competed villas on our street and it was a giant construction zone. There was really only one functioning beach area within golf cart range - the Eden Roc. Without the Eden Roc, there will be challenges having beach access as this villa is not near the beach. We feel that in time, this development (cap cana) is going to be an amazing destination. It’s just a little premature. We still had an amazing time. There is so much there already that’s “good” But felt we needed to post a comprehensive review.

Could not have been better for our group of 8 golfers. Property is excellent in every way. Rooms and outdoor areas were all excellent and staff was great. Location on Punta Espada was perfect and amenities of Cap Cana make this ideal set up in Punta Cana. Property is everything advertised and more. Thanks

The house was outstanding. The staff was fabulous, especially Chef Bertrand who had to manage meals for thirteen of us including two adults with dietary restrictions and three small children. Our Butler Solano was also outstanding. A great place for our family Christmas vacation.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the villa and I must say, the service was outstanding. From the moment we arrived, the entire team went above and beyond to ensure our stay was memorable. Firstly, I would like to express my gratitude towards our Butler, Endry. He was incredibly welcoming and accommodating, always there to assist us with any request or question we had. His friendly demeanor and attention to detail truly enhanced our experience. Now, let's talk about the food. The chef at this deserves all the praise. Every meal we had was absolutely delicious. The flavors were exquisite, and the presentation was top-notch. Hats off to the chef for creating such culinary delights. I must also mention the impeccable cleanliness of the property. The Villa was spotless and well-maintained. It was evident that the staff takes great pride in keeping everything in perfect condition. It added an extra level of comfort to our stay. Lastly, I cannot forget to mention the beautiful Eden Roc beach. Although it required a 10-minute golf cart ride and multiple trips, it was well worth it. The beach was stunning, with crystal clear waters and powdery white sand. It was the perfect place to relax and unwind. Overall, I highly recommend this villa. The service, from the butler to the chef and the entire team, was exceptional. The food was delectable, the property was immaculate, and the beach was breathtaking. I will definitely be returning and encourage others to experience
