My husband and I just spent 6 days at Villa Vivero with our daughter and two granddaughters, ages 11 and 15. We were pleased with the whole experience. The staff were outstanding and the food was the best! The property is so conducive to having family together with plenty of room. The girls spent hours in the pool when not snorkling at Minitas Beach. We look forward to a return visit.

Return trippers to Casa de Campo, this was the first time at the property. Fernando, the owner, was great; super responsive and knowledgeable. Oscar, the butler, was delightful and the housekeeper and cook were lovely too.

I would highly recommend this place to anyone. There were four couples and it was perfect. Property layout is great. The host was very responsive and wonderful. Chef and house staff were fabulous. House was situated in a good location to all activities. Special thanks to chef, Oscar and Alicia.

Fernando was the best VRBO communicator I have ever dealt with. He was quick to respond and so attentive when our flight was cancelled and we had to rearrange travel plans. The staff at house was wonderful too. Everyone does whatever it takes for you to be spoiled and enjoy yourself. The outdoor space is just as beautiful in person as the pictures. With 4 teenage kids it's usually hard to please everyone, but we all were so happy here. The food was amazing. We were there at the busiest time of year so it was great to not have to deal with crowded restaurants and fighting for a reservation. I highly recommend!

We had a lovely stay, thanks in large part to the amazing staff and the very communicative owner. There were some bumps along the way—folks had confused which day we were supposed to arrive and at least one of the two golf carts is in dire need of replacement— but generally we loved being at Vivero and at casa de campo. Oskar and his team had breakfast every day for us at 8 and dinner ready when we came back from the beach. All in all Id highly recommend the property.

Perfect for family or friends. Close to all the beaches and golf courses. Golf carts and van on site, staff was amazing.

Awesome house. Staff was incredible as well and owner very friendly and easy to deal with

This is a spacious lovely home. The staff is very nurturing and kind.

Fernando the owner was a breeze to communicate with! Chef K and Oscar were incredible! This 5 star experience is something we will never forget. I suggest trusting the chef, our meals were out of this world. They assisted us with getting a second golf cart and Oscar makes amazing Pina Coladas while we were poolside! 12/10, can’t wait to book our trip back.

Amazing trip. We like to try new villas at CDC but this one was so good we had to stay there again and it was the right decision. The owner is a great guy who responds promptly to all communications, the house is great and the staff is truly outstanding. I could go on and on but I hope any reader of this review will get the picture.

We stayed here with a bunch of girlfriends and the house was absolutely perfect. The staff was very friendly and attentive and willing to help with whatever we needed. Definitely recommend. The only thing to be aware of is due to the security of the resort, if you plan any external tours or transportation, make sure to tell Fernando beforehand so he can clear them for entry otherwise it takes a little while.

We had the most amazing stay this past week. House is spacious and beautiful. Staff is BEYOND amazing! Oscar, Alicia and chef Wander, we already miss them. Communication with owner was great. Hope to visit again soon.

We took our 2 sons and families to celebrate our upcoming 50 th wedding anniversary. The pictures are accurate but don’t give you the feel of how spacious and gorgeous the property is. The staff couldn’t have been nicer, more accommodating, and the food was fabulous! Do not overpack….your clothes are laundered everyday. There are four separate seating areas 2 inside and 2 outside. The pool was wonderful and cleaned everyday. The property owner was so responsive with my many questions. My sons picked the resort because of the golf. Teeth of the Dog and the Dye Fire course rival Pebble Beach and did not disappoint!

We had the absolute best time at Fernando's property. The stay exceeded our expectations. The house is perfect, the staff was kind, attentive, and fabulous! Everything we could have asked for and more.

What an amazing escape! This property is beautifully maintained and has everything you could want and more - glass doors always open to the lovely outdoor space, a nice pool, two outdoor showers, a golf cart and van that come with the rental. Everything regarding the physical property was fabulous, but what makes this property over the top is the staff. Oscar, Wonder, and Alicia are obviously experiences and ready to help with a kind smile! Our group greatly appreciated being spoiled! This property is tops!

Oscar is a rockstar he was always so nice and willing to help! Wonder cooked the best meals!

My family and I had a wonderful stay. We ranged from 1 year old to over 60 and everyone had a fabulous time and the accommodations were perfect for what we needed. Oscar, Wander and Alicia couldn’t have been nicer and made us any more comfortable. The food was absolutely delicious and more than what we expected. Thank you!!

Everything went off without a hitch. Staff was fabulous and flexible for our needs daily. House was in great order from arrival. Location was ideal. In the middle of everything we did. Wether it was Golf, dinner or beach.

Vivero 51 was amazing. The staff - chef Kendy, Oscar, and Ellisia made this a stay to remember. The owner, Fernando was extremely available and accommodating as well. Breakfast and lunch were out of This world and Kendy’s dinner makes you never want to eat out again….. we have stayed at other villas in the past, but this one takes the cake! Looking forward to returning.

Vivero 51 was an amazing villa with an awesome staff. All of our meals were phenomenal and the staff (Kenny, Oscar and Alicia) were top notch. They assisted us with massages, boat rentals, groceries, laundry etc. We will definitely be back. Tip: There are a lot of mosquitoes in DR so bring bug spray and re-apply throughout the day. In addition, bring ear plugs if you are sensitive to noise, the AC in the bedroom was a little noisy.

Pros: large house with amazing staff, they are really the ones that make this stay unforgettable. Oscar, Walden and Alicia are amazing, they go above and beyond to make you comfortable. The chef, Walden, is amazing, he cooked delicious meals and had an amazing attitude. Close to the beach ~5 min car drive Good location and access to beach, marina and La Romana downtown House is large with nice outside/pool area Cons: - Max capacity is 14 people, as per the advertising and listing, however, reality is that over 10 people, there is a charge per day per person and check in for the same house is not available, the owner actually wanted to separate our family due to the size of party, we were 11. - Check in: We were told by the owner we needed to say we are “guests”, we couldn’t mention “renting property”, we then learned from the Casa de Campo management that there is a fee for renting the property, we paid almost 7K for this property, not sure what is happening with their “fee”, not my business either, but you expect to use the property as “vacation rental” with all rules/regulations, instead of lying about it - by the way - when we learned this, it was too late to cancel - Since the property is only for 10 people, no one else can enter the property, like massage therapist, guests, etc. the registration process is very bureaucratic. You can only have services from people that have permanent card access to Casa de Campo, because they don’t go to the registration process. - Bathrooms’ showers upstairs didn’t work and one of the master bedroom’ bed fell apart, they need renovations, the house needs renovations overall, and the biggest liability is the fridge, it does not work and it shocks you when you touch it, it is very dangerous. - There is only 1 golf cart and 1 very old and manual minivan, should consider upgrading these as well.

Vivero 51 is an amazing paradise and its going to be hard staying at a normal hotel from now on. I will be staying here again and for many years to come. Vivero 51 Pros 1. The house and decorating are beautiful and up to date. You can tell that the owner stays here, and this is not just a house he only has for business purposes. 2. The staff is great. Kendy the cook is very professional, cooks restaurant quality food, and keeps track of all of your request. Oscar is very attentive and went out of his way to make sure we always had what we needed and would make several trips with us back and forth to the beach or marina. 3. The showers always had hot water, we regularly had all 4 showers working all at the same time, and no one complained about not having hot water. Same goes for the air conditioners in each bedroom. 4. The location is central, via golf cart, one way 6 mins to the beach and 12 mins to the marina. Vivero 51 Cons 1. They have 1 minivan with a manual transmission and 1 golf cart (4 persons). In my group no one can drive manual so we would only had the 1 golf cart to move us around, especially after the staff left the house after 6pm. Daytime, Oscar would drive us around. If you have a large group my suggestion would be to rent an additional 6 person golf cart. 2. They only have 1 set of house and pool towels. So if you use your towels during the day, when you wake up there are no clean and dry towels until the staff washes the old ones and dry them. They should have a set A and set B of towels that they can rotate from. Vivero 51 Tips 1. Per the chef, a good baseline budget would be $20-25 per person per day. For my trip he cooked breakfast every morning, and we alternated between a lunch or a dinner per day. This gave us a chance to try the local restaurants. The chef buys the first groceries for you based on your list, so bring cash to pay him back. He used my CC to pay the remaining trip groceries. 2. Email Fernando a list of meals, favorite foods, or any dietary restrictions. 3. Be prepared, COVID testing at the resort is $80 per person. They do come to the house to do the testing. 4. Follow the check in instructions given to you by Fernando. 5. Rent additional golf carts if you have a large group.
