La Estrella del Mar, a beautiful tropical ocean front villa, designed by a French architect, is the perfect family hideaway. The private pool, big terrace, integrated kitchen with ocean view and the waves in front of the house for surfing and boogie boarding are definitely worth a stay. The calm beaches with no waves are only 5 walking minutes away.
The fisherman village Las Terrenas is very different from many Caribbean and Dominican destinations. It existed already long before tourism started in this area of the island. You will find a combination of Dominican happiness, European gastronomy and beautiful nature. Playa Bonita is just next to the village but very quiet and residential. You have great waves for surfers in the center of the bay and no waves walking 5 minutes to the right or to the left. You can take long beach walks to Coson (next beach) where you find some very nice restaurants.
