Our visit was a good experience. The chef and housekeeper made the minor issues to be ignored and written off. Maria ( the chef) was phenomenal. The food she curated had flavor, passion and beauty. Beirthdia ( the housekeeper/server) was very nice and professional. She had a soft loving personality. They both aimed to please their guests. We thought that the best part of staying at the house was the Chef and Housekeeper, without their charisma the stay would have felt cold. The house has character and beauty. The pictures are exactly what it looks like. The AC in the bedrooms worked perfectly. Hot water was sufficient. Internet was great for the amount of guests we were ( 7). My kids enjoyed the pool everyday and preferred it over the expensive beach of Playa Blanca(they charge 28% on top of 3 times more expensive than other areas for drinks). They have "club" prices. The decor of the house is really nice. You can extrapolate that there was interior designer that curated the house. We ate all of our meals on the exterior table/porch due to the heat in the dining room and living room. There is plenty of breeze when all the doors are open, but if you prefer AC in the main common areas of the house; make sure that you prepay for the AC upon reservation. The beds were very comfortable and large and there was no need for the guests to make their beds or clean up. The mosquitoes were controlled very well with the exception of after it rains. We did have other measures to keep

Every year and a half or so, we take the adult kids and grandkids on a trip/vacation. We usually go on a cruise primarily because the cooking and cleaning are not my responsibility as “Grandma.” The DR seemed interesting and we found The Flamingo Villa! WOW! Truly the best vacation EVER! Bridget and Maria were exceptional, cooking amazing meals and making sure we didn’t lift a finger! House is spectacular, as good or better than the photos. Christian and his wife were very helpful. Be sure you reserve the golf cart, because you can use it to go to the beach, out to dinner, and we even found a petting zoo/farm for the grandkids. Book local excursions and the majority will come pick you and bring you back home. If you’re on the fence-BOOK THIS HOME! I’ve already had friends reserve this 10/10 vacation home and I know we’ll be back!

Very nice and relaxing

My family absolutely loved this villa! Our staff (Bridget and Rosalina) were beyond welcoming and took the best care of us. The meals they made were fantastic that my whole family enjoyed. The location was perfect and the golf carts made it very easy to get to the beach and local restaurants within the resort. The pool and hot tub were great additions to the house. Christian & Diana (the owners) were very accommodating with quick responses that made our stay even more enjoyable than it was, as well as the airport transportation they arranged for us. The rooms in the villa were very spacious and I would highly recommend this property to any family or small group looking to enjoy and relax comfortably! If we could give an 12/10 rating we would! We can't wait to visit again soon!!

Maria and Bridgitte were amazing and took care of us for delicious meals every day. The children loved the pool and the golf carts were handy to get to the various different beaches nearby. We had the best time not worrying about cooking or cleaning and just relaxing - thank you Christian for organizing everything and making sure we were taken care of!

If you are traveling to the Dominican Republic with family, do not stay at a resort. Stay at Tortuga B9 Located in the La Cana Golf Resort. Maria and Bridgette are absolutely amazing and the service they provide is OUTSTANDING. They are kind and loving and take care of every possible need you may have. My family and I plan to rent the Villa two times next year. The home was very clean and the meals were dominican delicious. Lastly the house looks out to the golf course and is very cozy. This is a must rent for the family. One more thing Golf Carts are available for rental and also bicycles. The other best thing about this Villa is the hosts Christian and Diana are with you every step of the way and they respond immediately to any and all requests. Rent this Villa and have an amazing vacation in the DR.

We just had one of the best family vacations ever. We have rented a number of houses, including on Caribbean islands, and Christian and Diana's was at the top. We were a family with three kids (ages 6-11) and a mother-in-law (mid-70s) and the house was perfect for us. Excellent sleeping arrangements, a pool and outdoor area that was used ALL the time, and easy access (via golf cart!) to so many of the greater resort's amenities. Highly recommend the beach at La Cana, including eating with feet in the sand at Mare there, the pool at the Westin, dinner at La Yola, and the Ecological Reserve! And don't let us forget to say that Maria and Brigida were just THE BEST. If you don't speak Spanish, definitely download a translator app and, even, then some communication may be tricky. But, if you're low-key and flexible, it will work out great. Maria and Brigida couldn't have been any lovelier or more service-oriented. Not cooking for the week, in particular, was a TREAT. Highly recommend this gorgeous home and the wonderful people who help make your vacation positively delightful and relaxing.

Our group of 6 just spent an idyllic week at this villa. The property is lovely, with the beautiful pool and outdoor patio with plenty of loungers and comfortable seating areas facing the golf course. The beds are comfy and the indoor living room has a large sectional sofa perfect for watching movies at the end of the day. Maria (the cook) is fantastic- all of her meals were wonderful and she took the best care of us. The home is extremely clean and equipped with everything we needed during our stay. The owner, Christian, is excellent at communication from beginning to end and was always available to answer questions or help in any way. We rented a golf cart for the week which made getting around the resort and to the beach a breeze. We are already looking forward to returning!!
