Villa Punta Coral is a spacious Caribbean dream home located on the Samaná peninsula in the Dominican Republic. Splendidly situated within 60 meters of the coral shore, the deep blue ocean is a permanent part of the experience at the villa. It also lies right on the migratory path of the humpback whales, so one can frequently observe whales right from the terrace (December through March). The swimming pool with open-air BBQ, as well as the large shaded terrace, are very inviting for outdoor entertainment. A gazebo offers welcome shade and space for a hammock, so you can relax to the soothing sounds of the ocean. Both the villa and the swimming pool were completely renovated in 2012.

Splendidly situated within 60 meters of the coral shore, the deep blue ocean is a permanent part of the experience at the villa. It also lies right on the migratory path of the humpback whales, so one can frequently observe whales right from the terrace (December through March). The swimming pool with open-air BBQ, as well as the large shaded terrace, are very inviting for outdoor entertainment. A gazebo offers welcome shade and space for a hammock, so you can relax to the soothing sounds of the ocean. Both the villa and the swimming pool were completely renovated in 2012. The architecture of Villa Punta Coral is breathtaking and uses typical local materials, including a thick roof in palm tree leaves. The style of the furnishings and decor is arranged for cool, simple, yet elegant Caribbean living. Each room has the necessary amenities to enjoy a comfortable stay. Even a crib is available for babies and small children. The on-site caretakers, Rhadames and Sandra, are available 24/7. Villa Punta Coral is a place of serenity, refuge, renewal, and escape. The villa is surrounded by a lush garden with palm trees, shrubs, flowers, and grass. It also has a small private beach on the coral reef with 3 beach umbrellas in palm tree leaves and offers a spectacular view of the Samaná Bay. Breathtaking sunrises and moonrises over the vast expanse of blue sea, combined with the gentle breeze swishing in the palm leaves all fuse together to create truely spectacular outdoor living at Villa Punta Coral.More
Very well kept villa with beautiful views of the ocean. Wonderful location if you want to get away from the noise but still have a short 15 -20 minutes into downtown Samana or Las Galeras. The family taking care of the property on a daily...More

Hi Chad and Chris,
Thank you so much for your review. You were wonderful guests and I truly hope to welcome you back to use your rain check. We still have that family dinner pending!
This trip was my first time to the DR, so I wasn't sure what to expect when I arrived. As we pulled in the simple 2 track road entering the villa our excitement starting growing. Beautiful palm trees aligned both sides of the road, and...More

Hi Marvin, thanks for your detailed review. The weather was indeed a very troublesome factor during your stay, with torrential rains, floodings and humidity at its worst. Due to the extreme weather conditions, power went out numerous times, and the main cell phone tower in...More

Hi Linda,
Thank you for the kind words. We're happy that you enjoyed your stay at Villa Punta Coral and the Las Galeras area, and we'd be delighted to have you stay with us again in the future.
The villa is less than 20 minutes from several beautiful beaches, including Playa Rincon and La Playita. There are so many outdoor activities in this part of the Dominican Republic you will not run out of fun things to do. The villa is incredible, but you have to go out once in a while. The nearby town of Las Galeras is only 7 km away and is home to several good restaurants. You will also find numerous outfitters that organize excursions of all sorts. Get on an ATV, do some horseback riding, visit the Los Haitises National Park or go fishing! Everything the Caribbean has to offer is right here!
