Perfect location for 2 families to share a place on the beach. We were far enough away from the disco area so that it wasn’t too loud at night. We chose not to do the all inclusive option which was nice as it gave us some flexibility the chance to check out some local restaurants lnearby. We were still able to use the main pools and the beach area.
It was a great location and a beautiful condo..the building manager Alvaro was amazing, so helpful and a great human being, whatever we needed he was there to help. We will be returning.
Our group of 12 (ages 3-60) stayed in this villa for a family vacation and it had everything we needed and more!! The villa is beautiful, clean, comfortable, the pool is amazing, there’s a beautiful grass yard, and it is a very short walk to the local beach. It is also a very short drive to Puerto Plata. While the property itself was amazing it was the staff that made our vacation extra special. They really treated everyone in our group like family and went above and beyond, taking care of every little thing so that we could spend more time together making memories. From start to finish the communication and responsiveness was 10/10, which made us all feel so safe and welcome. Truly I could not dream up a better group of people to trust with your family’s vacation. We highly recommend planning any excursions through Gus - he was so accomodating and the tours he suggested were enjoyed by all. If you’re considering booking - do it now!! We hope to return someday!
6 of us stayed at the beautiful Villa Playamor for March Break. Everything was exactly as advertised - the house was huge and absolutely spotless.
We'd been in contact with our host multiple times before our stay with so many questions and he was always quick to answer.
We had great drivers to and from the airport - a large van with plenty of room for us and all our luggage. Lorenzo was even waiting for us at the airport with a sign with our name! We felt like vips from the moment we landed.
The pool and back porch had tons of room for us with shade and sun, and an incredible view.
We spent most of our time in and around the pool but we did also do a half day city tour that included the cable car up the mountain. Gus arranged everything for us so we were picked up in a private coach and had our own private tour guide escorting us everywhere. We also took the kids to Ocean World (a 5 minute walk away) and loved it.
There really isn't anything to do in the town of Cofresi itself, the beach is ok but a little dirty and there were a lot of people selling things. There is a small convenience store as well but it is pretty overpriced.
Nelly took us grocery shopping in Puerto Plata after we chose our meals for the week and everything she made was amazing.
If you're traveling from Canada I would suggest you exchange your money to Dominican pesos rather than usd, since you're exchanging anyway and it seemed a bit cheaper that way.
All told it was an incredible experience! Thank you
The house is exactly as advertised, paradise! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a piece of paradise. Chef Ariel and his wife are an absolute must, the food is beyond amazing and their attention to detail is unparalleled.
We had an amazing time at the condo, the location is very good. It’s steps to Playa Alicia beach, and there are numerous restaurants within a 5 minute walk. We were only there 16 nights, so we ate out a lot for breakfast and suppers, we never had a bad meal anywhere. All the restaurants were excellent. It is about 10 minute walk to Sosua beach, and about 10 minutes to the big Playero grocery store.
Svitlana the property manager was great if we had any questions. Daniel the man that looks after the property during the day was excellent, he was such a nice man. He keeps the property extremely clean and well maintained. He also helped with anything we needed. They have water bottles on site, he would bring them up to our unit for us, cost was 70 pesos very reasonable.
The unit was extremely clean, the kitchen had everything we needed. I have some back issues so I always worry about the beds, but the bed was excellent I had no troubles. There is a washer in the one bathroom, and there are lines set up outside on the one balcony, there are also laundry lines at back of building.
I would definitely recommend this property, and would absolutely stay there again.
Thank you so much Svitlana, and Daniel😀😀
