Charming place, super convenient

Highlights: Just steps to the beach, great restaurants, bars, and sevices. 14 foot cielings, great patio and balcony, ocean breezes, quality comfort. Chatting with Esteban...the local artist whose studio is in the plaza below...a treasure!

About Michael Bidwell

We live in the United States and discovered Las Terrenas for ourselves in early 2012. We had to see LT for ourselves after reading an enchanting Caribbean Travel article.

A month or so later, we fell in love with LT almost the moment we crossed over the mountain range and saw the region's stunning natural beauty: miles and miles of pristine beaches, extremely lush palm forests and the deep blue Caribbean Sea. Incredible! Once in town, we were drawn to the cosmopolitan beach scene. TOP quality restaurants, french bakeries, cafes and countless beach bar options of all levels of sophistication. Also, it is great to have the option to take a bite out of a great nightlife scene on any given evening. Great discos (The Replay), Nightclubs (Gaia), Lounges (Mosquitoes, One Love, Mojitos are just the start) and even the venerable Bodega promise much fun and memories!

After months of scouring and searching various places and locations with my outstanding realtor, it all came together perfectly when we saw Ventanas al Mar. The place is beautiful and the location could not be better.

I don't know why LT is still largely a secret in the US. I have a feeling with their new highway and international airport, LT and the surrounding Samana peninsula is poised to become a major vacation destination.

Why they chose this property

This property was featured in a February 2017 episode of HGTV "Caribbean Life". The episode "Lessons in Las Terrenas" does a really good job of describing the beauty and vitality of Las Terrenas. It also shows the property's IDEAL location, enchanting architecture, build quality and beauty. It is one of just 7 units in this unique property. What's more, we love the community pool, furniture, bathroom and BBQ area which we almost always have to ourselves.

What makes this property unique

If Las Terrenas had a Times Square, Plaza Colonial might be it. However, it is still incredibly quiet and tranquil given its location. When you want to take in the sounds and vitality of the village, just open up your Terrace doors and Las Terrenas is on full display as you look out.
