You were both incredibly helpful as we planned our trip and we greatly appreciate the time and effort you took to answer our questions and even book some of the activities for us! The villa was the perfect setting for our family and friends vacation and we had such a great time that our six nights flew by way too quickly! Not only is the view stunning, but we found your home to be so, too! We thought the open air concept worked especially well downstairs and we managed to use every area except the pool table! The girls and I especially enjoyed your interior design and all the matching pillows and furniture throughout! The three bed set-up was perfect for the girls who wanted to sleep in the same room and the (tall) boys especially enjoyed the queen size beds! Peter and I loved the interior of the master suite and, of course, the view that it affords across Teeth of the Dog and onto the water! I already have a picture posted on my computer to remember that lovely scene! In addition to your wonderful home, our vacation was made by your incredible staff! Rafael, Chabella, Freddy and Ida were terrific!! Collectively they must be the best staff at Casa de Campo and individually they were all so warm and gracious! Since Peter and I do not speak any Spanish, four of the kids helped translate for us, and as a side note got to practice their speaking abilities every day! Rafael was terrific!! He was on top of everything! He is just lovely and we can see why you entrust your home to him. Chabella’s food was absolutely delicious! Peter and I actually went to Le Cirque one evening and decided the food wasn’t any better than what we were having at the villa! You were correct, Francesca, that French Toast is outstanding but we didn’t want to have it every morning for fear we would not fit onto the airplane home! (But we did have it again for our last morning, as a departure gift to ourselves!) Ida could not have been any sweeter or more helpful with everything! She did a wonderful job on our laundry and always greeted us with a big smile! Speaking of smiling, who doesn’t love Freddy? He took such good care of the pool and grounds for us! I feel as if these words can’t quite convey how much we enjoyed the folks at your home....you must get tired of hearing how super they all are! We are already looking forward to a return visit!

We wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay at your beautiful home; it was the best vacation we've had in many, many years. Rafael, Ida and Freddie were awesome. Everything Ida cooked was delicious. She is a great cook!! We all agreed we have never had a vacation where the food was excellent every meal and it was with Ida. Please commend her. And Rafael was very attentive and professional. They made our stay very comfortable and relaxing. We hope to come back next year. THANKS!!!

Memorable family vacation from beginning to end. Rafael is the greatest and Freddie and ChiChi were also incredible. The house is absolutely stunning with views that look like a postcard. We were a family of 10 with 4 children and the home was very spacious. We never wanted to leave. The food and service was so amazing that we ate dinner every night at the villa. Rafael anticipated our every need and want. ChiChi has a special touch with cooking that made even a fried egg taste like a delight. We recommend this trip and specifically this villa with 100% certainty and know that all who stay here will leave with memories that will last a lifetime.

We just returned from 6 bliss-filled days at Raul and Francesca's house. Rafael, Freddy and of course Chi-chi, an incredible chef greeted us and treated us like the most welcomed guests. The decor of the house is modern and up-to-date and the view from the veranda out to the golf course and ocean is even more beautiful then the pictures can show. We highly recommend for a family reunion-- we had 8 adults and 3 kids (aged 10, 7, 6) and we found Cacique 21 to be the perfect place for our family reunion. Thanks again for welcoming us and making us feel so at home!

Incredible house, location and staff. Everything was perfect from the time we walked in. Freddie and Rafael were always around for whatever we needed and Chi-Chi's cooking was amazing! We were actually planning on going out to eat 2 or 3 times but decided to stay in because the cooking and service was so good at Cacique 21! The ocean and sunset views are unbelieveable. Raul and Francesca were so helpful and pleasant to deal with. We had a lot of questions as it was our first time in the Dominican and they were so helpful. Can't wait to go back!

I wanted to thank you so much for a wonderful trip to the Dominican! We all had the best time and enjoyed the break from everything back home. Your home is beautiful!! Rafael, Freddie and Margarita were all a delight! I particularly enjoyed Rafael! Francesca was so wonderful checking on our sick crew; whom have all since recovered :) Thank you again for a wonderful get away. We hope we can do it again next year!

In my opinion this is the most well situated, beautiful, comfortable home in Casa de Campo. The home is literally on the golf course, absolutely breathtaking. The owners are always available and helpful to every single need you might have, it is very refreshing to deal with people who are genuine like this couple. The staff was just perfect, during my stay I was dreaming of what it would be like to have Teresa and Raul at my own home, they are the most professional, attentive, respectful employee's anyone could dream of having, and the food! excellent!. I do have one complaint, that we should've stayed longer! I highly recommend this villa, without a doubt one of the best vacations I've ever had. Thank you Raul, Francesca, Teresa and Rafael!!!

We don't often repeat a destination, but we certainly would return to Casa de Campo to stay at C-21

I wanted to take a moment to tell you how wonderful our time in Casa de Campo was for all of us! From the moment we arrived, we felt totally at home. Rafael, Teresa and Freddie made sure all our needs were met....sometimes before we knew what we wanted! The meals were incredible, we all gained a few pounds. The service was impecable. They have a prized team there and I am sure they know it. The home is beautiful- gracious and comfortable from top to bottom. We enjoyed our time there thoroughly. Weather does not stop us- we found joy in every moment we spent there, rain or shine. Thanks to Raul and Francesca for all their help with suggestions. This all made our trip most memorable.

The Hoyo home is beautiful house and ideally located within the Casa De Campo complex. The house is situated on the golf course overlooking the ocean and within walking distance to the beach. The home is finely appointed, allows the outside to come in and captures all modern conveniences with the spirit of the country. The help is highly professional, extremely accommodating and considerate of your space and needs. Raul and his wife are available if needed to address any issues that may arise and will expeditiously address them with favorable results. Overall a great relaxing and comfortable experience for all. We highly recommend this home, staff and very warm/amiable owners.

I want you to know that our trip to Casa de Campo was outstanding! Our visit exceeded our expectations! Your employees (Raphael, Justina and Freddie) really made this all possible. They exhibited a caring, professional and friendly attitude through out our stay. You have a winning team! You should be proud and feel very blessed. What can I say about your home? Well….. It was fabulous! What an awesome view! Our rooms were very comfortable and the A|C worked great. You know us folks from Texas like our rooms cool at night. Thanks again for a great stay at your lovely home.

Boy, did we have a wonderful time at your home in Casa de Campo! Both the house and location are just beautiful; and your staff is so sweet and anxious to please - we really enjoyed them. Efi, our nanny, was a tremendous help with the language barrier too. It seemed like she made some new friends. :) Thanks to you and Francesca as well for being attentive, and promptly returning our calls, inquiries, etc. So sorry we did not get to meet. We had an absolutely wonderful experience. The other couples loved Casa - it was their first visit. We will definitely visit again - hopefully bringing my parents next time too. Who knows, maybe next year, same time(?)! We'll be in touch.

Well, even after our nightmarish travel day, once we arrived at the villa every one of us agreed that it was worth every aggravating second we spent at the airport. The house is beautiful, and your staff couldn't be more pleasant, professional or accommodating. I couldn't believe that they actually stayed up and made dinner for us, even though we didn't arrive until almost midnight! The beautiful views of the ocean and golf course, the elegance and comfort of the house and perfect weather soothed every last frazzled nerve. Thanks again to you and your staff for everything.

WOW, This place was just as Raul had described it and better. The view was incredible and the house was immaculate! The maid, cook and gardener were great!!! They were very professional and very nice. I have had two heart transplants and have a low immune system so cleanliness was a very important issue to me. The place was clean. Very clean! Raul was a pleasure to deal with and we had no surprises with hidden costs. He was upfront about everything and very honest and very eager to accomadate my family. I highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a fantastic vacation or gettaway. I have been to the Dominican Republic about ten times and this is by far the best place that I have stayed.

The most perfect honeymoon/golf vacation ever! 3/15-3/22/08 Gorgeous oceanfront right on the 4th fairway of Teeth of the Dog. The staff was super friendly and so extremely eager to meet all our needs, and they succeeded! Justina is a wonderful cook, much to our enjoyment and Freddy always made sure the jacuzzi was hot (2 hours to heat) when we needed it. We try to conserve energy when we can. The owners, Raul and his very lovely wife, Francesca, went way way out of their way to insure we had a fabulous stay and we did! They were most helpful before and during our trip. They are indeed the best of people. The house was immaculate (we both are neat freaks). Their was airconditioning in all the bedrooms and comfortable beds and linen. Lounging areas were plentiful. After a challenging day of golf we would jump in the pool to refresh ourselves and then sit in the jacazzi and enjoy the oceanview and sunset. After our evening meals we would walk along the beach just stpes from the backyard of the villa. We also enjoyed practicing chipping and putting on the extra green and sandtrap just steps from the backyard. We snorkeled around the coral reef surrounding the 5th green of Teeth of the Dog every morning, sighting a colorful array of fish. All this just steps from our backyard. Paradise at it's best. I would highly recommend this villa to everyone!
