amazing week at Claudia's villa

We spent a week here - two families (four adults and four little ones all under six). The place was amazing. Plenty of space for us to spread out. Pool was awesome - the kids had a blast playing all week. Beach is a minute away as is the club restaurant which we used many nights - super casual and it worked well for our families. We hope to return next year!!

Christmas 2024

The amenities in the area were great and we enjoyed many activities. The rental’s cleanliness was not up to standard for such a home, the pool not serviced and unusable until the fourth day of our stay, and there were no check in instructions.

I ahve nevr once had a complaint about cleanliness in 7 years so I'm not sure how to respond to that ? Unfortunately, there was a severe storm that flooded all the pools at the resort. It takes 3 days to clean the pool after weather like that. Entry instructions are given and they are very simple, arrive at the gate, give your names to the guards and they guide guests right to the door of the villa, which is opened right before arrival.. not sure what else to say !

Beautiful property, wonderful owner!

Our family group has made memories to last a lifetime in this beautiful vacation property. The home is laid out well so we didn't feel crowded with a group of 12. Lili the maid took care of our every need! The chef cooked amazing Dominican meals for us. Claudia was a wonderful host, so quick to communicate and took the time to answer all of my questions. We very much enjoyed Sea Horse Ranch, the local area and the property.

Amazing house and development

This house is simply beautiful, spacious and very elegant. We had a great time in the private pool in the backyard, as well as the beautiful pools within the development. The restaurant is steps away and serves delicious food that we enjoyed overlooking the ocean. The owner/manager provided excellent instructions and was always available. The staff was also fantastic. 5 starts across the board. I hope to return soon!

Beautiful getaway

Property is gorgeous in a beautiful setting. Kids and adults enjoyed. The restaurant on property site is great and food was great. House personnel very nice and attentive. The only major issue was some “critters” found in the house multiple times throughout our stay and a very smelly rug in the main bedroom. Definitely needs to be tossed out. Otherwise a very comfortable accommodation for our entire group.

Well, occasional critters, as in some bugs are not uncommon in a Dominican villa. You are after all in the tropics. Although that being said, we have never found anything alarming in the home since we built it in 2007, and they are not seen often. That rug was caught in a plumbing flood and was supposed to have been thrown away ! A miscommunication with my staff..my apologies ! We will address that asap..

Spectacular villa!!

This was my second stay at this amazing villa, but it won’t be my last. The property is exquisite- every room is beautiful; the pool is gorgeous, and no detail is missed. The staff is like family. Lily takes the best care of you, and say yes to the chef at least once while you’re there. It’s such a treat to be served in the stunning dining room. This location is unique in that you get the privacy of a villa while still having immediate access to a wonderful restaurant, horseback riding, and other amenities within the ranch. Honestly - spoil yourself. Go.

wonderful, wonderful wonderful vacation (from repeat visitors!)

This is our second year staying in Claudia's villa. We are two couples and four children among us (ages 3-8). The villa is really beautiful and sparkling clean and comfortable. Pool right in the backyard is such a bonus. You can hear the ocean waves from the house and there is a small beach steps away. Restaurant in walking distance is great too. Can't say enough about Lily (the housekeeper) and Johnny (the chef). Loved having a delicious breakfast made by Lily, lounging around in the morning by the pool, spending the day at Cabarete beach, then heading back to the house for afternoon drinks and snacks and dinner at the property restaurant or made by Johnny. A true relaxing tropical vacation. We miss Sea Horse Ranch and Claudia's villa already and can't wait to come back again next year!

When are going back!!

We can not stop talking about our stay with our family and friends. The conversation is when are we going back and can we stay longer than a week. My answer is YES, YES, YES. The ultimate luxury is being able to relax and enjoy your experience. The villa is impressive and grounds lush, expansive, and afford a sense of privacy. The Beach Club was a short walk away. Chef Johnny prepared several restaurant quality dinners. Lilly made everyone feel special and our 5 year old fell in love with her. Breakfast by Lilly was a hit everyday. Claud

Peaceful and relaxing

We had a fantastic stay at Sea Horse Ranch. The villa was spacious, well-maintained, and set in a peaceful open-air home, secure community surrounded by lush tropical landscaping. It felt like a private oasis, perfect for a family getaway.One of the highlights was the housekeeper, who was wonderful — she made us a delicious breakfast each morning for a small additional fee, and kept the home spotless and did our laundry throughout our stay. That touch of hospitality made the experience feel even more relaxing.The private pool was perfect for lounging, and the community’s pool area was very cool. While the beach within the community isn’t very large, We’d definitely recommend renting a car, as it made getting to Cabarete and nearby restaurants and beaches much easier. Also if you do cab it I recommend calling the main office of the property as they will provide you with a can that’s only 16 each way to Cabarete. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, upscale retreat in the Dominican Republic.

Great Getaway

We had 7 adults. On arrival in the afternoon all was well except for the pool. The pool was very dirty and was not running. Also, the smaller bedroom connected to hall bath on main level did not have hot water. The pool was cleaned the next day. Hot water needed a repair. All beds were comfortable, and a/c in all bedrooms was great. The maid and chef were good friendly people. The clubhouse was not open as it had just changed ownership. However, the community pools, beach areas, and grounds were beautiful and enjoyable. We will visit Sea Horse Ranch again!

There was a problem with the pool pump when the guests arrived and one of the 6 bathrooms had an issue with the hot water. The plumber came right away and took care of it. Such is life, unfortunately we don't live in a perfect world, and these guests had an atypical first day.

Elegant, beautiful villa

If you are looking for an elegant and well appointed villa with every bell and whistle - this is the vacation home for you. The location is fantastic - a perfect combination of villa privacy and community benefits, sitting within the Sea Horse community with access to beachfront, a great restaurant, tennis, and horseback riding within a quick walk away. The villa itself is grand, columns, granite, beautiful doorways, fantastic doorways, and a master suite that allows you to overlook it all. The pool will be your daily playground, and if you never leave that spot, you will be perfectly happy for days. Claudia is a fantastic host. She will answer any question and if there's anything needed in the villa while you are there - the team will handle it. Lily is a great housekeeper and chef, and there's a local manager and handyman who will be on site quickly if anything needs fixing. If you want to treat yourself... this villa is a treat.

Overdue Family Vacation

1st trip since the Pandemic started, and our family of 10 was Very Ready to get away! The Villa was extremely private, secure, peaceful, and beautiful. Our Family ranges from 80 - 21month. The house was very spacious and clean. Lilly, and Kenzia were nothing short of spectacular in maintaining the Villa, and started the day with a delicious breakfast of our choice. ( we supplied the food) Although, the 1st morning is provided for. The Beach and ocean are a short five minute walk towards the beach club restaurant. Full service facility, with food choices for everyone. Outstanding pina-colada’s, but be careful, they free pour the 151 proof rum, so if you have more the one you definitely feel it! LoL. Finally dealing with Claudia is effortless and she is very responsive to anything and everything we asked her. In summary, this was the perfect way to ease us back into travelling, due to the private Villa, and no crowds at all.

Paradise Found!

The house was absolutely gorgeous and even better than the pictures. It was beautifully decorated with comfortable beds, fresh linens, and large closets so we could unpack our suitcases for the week. Although we didn’t cook any meals, the kitchen was well stocked. The house is in a gated community with 24/7 security and we always felt safe. The guards and staff are also very friendly and I would highly recommend you brush up on your Spanish! The house is one of the best located in the complex as it is so close to the beach club, community pools, and beach access. Lily, the housekeeper, is a sweetheart and will make your whole family the most amazing breakfasts. She works extremely hard and absolutely loved the children. She will do anything to make your stay perfect. Claudia was great to work with and supplied a lot of information about the area. She stayed in communication with us prior to our trip and answered any questions we had. I recommend you take advantage of the horseback riding in the complex. We did a 1 1/2 hour trail ride and got to ride off the property and saw a lot of the coastline, which was amazing. All in all, this vacation was as close to paradise as you can get. You won’t regret staying at this beautiful villa!

After leaving, I informed the owner of my disappointment at the "lack of information" that would've changed my mind about staying here. Yes I felt cheated/scammed by the withholding of this information. Once I was there, I was pretty stuck with my group of 5. The info states "Massive wrought iron gated entry doors". There were also multiple in the back. However, the wrought iron was present but there were NO DOORS between the gate and the inside of the house. It was wide open. Stray cats, lizards, moths, mosquitos, etc... all were inside. She questioned why I didn't mention this when I arrived. Well, I've been to the DR 17 times and the thought of "no doors" being rectified quickly was doubtful. So, we placed a security camera in the main entry way that would alert our cellphone. My husband is seriously allergic to cats so having to constantly chase them out of the house was also an issue. 4 different ones. The owner said they belonged to a neighbor. Well it didn't help that there was cat food bowls left for them in the Villa. Finally it's Nov so showering in cold water was also an issue. For the 5 of us, it was hit and miss. I would have to run the water for a long time in hopes of it warming up. While this is very wasteful, it only worked some times.The Villa looks very nice but there is NO WAY I would've stayed here knowing there were no SOLID LOCKING DOORS and CATS w food and what appears to be 2 stacked pillows for them that we saw one lounging on.
Wrought Iron w/o barrier between inside and outside. This is the back door. Front was the same.

You're own private paradise!

Receiving the detailed information that was provided to us before our stay outlining what to pack, where to go for food, fun, shopping, etc. was a great start to our trip! It not only eliminated the guesswork about knowing what to do and what to expect, it also got us super excited about our trip! Having never been to the Dominican Republic before, it was extremely helpful to have. It also gave me the sense that the owners really wanted to ensure that we had a good time, and all of their advice was spot on. Upon arrival, we were blown away by the beauty of the house and of Sea Horse Ranch in general. We had seen wonderful photos, but it was even more amazing in person. The open-air lifestyle can be enjoyed in the main living area as well as the lovely outdoor verandas, and we enjoyed many hours sitting and conversing with the ceiling fans providing a very pleasant breeze. One morning we even practiced yoga on the large outside veranda overlooking the pool! The house is very spacious, and there is plenty of room to spread out if that is what you desire. Sleeping was comfortable as each room has it's own air conditioner and bathrooms are a plenty, each with their own flair (loved all of the tile choices). It was obvious that great thought and care was put into every detail of this home and it is maintained to the highest standards. We saw landscapers, pool cleaners, etc. doing whatever needed to be done. They were never obtrusive, and they do a fantastic job of keeping everything in perfect condition. It was so nice to be able to relax and spend time in the pool at the house and also be able to walk to the club pool and private beach to get a change of scenery without having to travel. When we did venture out to the public beach, we enjoyed that experience as well. The locals are very friendly and eager to please. As for the food, Lily made us a delicious breakfast every morning and I personally enjoyed the fresh fruit -- both the colorful presentation and the taste! When we ate out, every restaurant we tried was as promised; from La Casita de Papi on the beach amidst the local nightlife and twinkling lights, to Castle Club on the hilltop, with it's breathtaking views. I’d say there is something for everyone on a vacation to Sea Horse Ranch and I can’t wait for my next opportunity to return!

Great Thanksgiving Holiday Away

The villa is beautiful. There were 5 of us in the home, 2 adults, 3 kids. Each kid had their own spacious room & my husband & I shared the upstairs master with outside shower & the balcony overlooking the pool. The guards made us feel safe & protected. Claudia was very helpful in setting up our first night's meal with Johnny as well as giving us tips on things to do in the area (restaurants, etc..). When we arrived, we had a wonderful Chicken Cordon Bleu, garden salad & rice and mixed vegetables. For dessert, flan! So yummy! The next day, we had asked Lily to make us the Dominican Stew. We gave her the dollars to get the ingredients for that, which was also delicious. She also made us Mangu for breakfast one morning with ingredients I supplied to her. We rented a car from OK from Monday to Friday. They delivered the Suzuki SUV to the villa & picked it up that Friday. Cabarete Beach - vendors were relentless with jewelry, massages, tours, braids, fruit, etc... Playa Alicia - waves were HUGE & knocked down my 5'9" 14 year old son. No vendors here to speak of. Playa Sosua - water was calmer, but vendors were again relentless. Horseback riding at Sea Horse - very nice, 1.5 hour ride around the ranch - to the beach, but not on the beach (per my request). Restaurants: Lax Ojo, The Waterfront in Sosua, Morua Mai (for Thanksgiving dinner), were all very good. Grocery Stores: the Playera & Super Pola were both good. Janet's in Cabarete wasn't as user friendly. The pool at the villa was huge, but COLD! There were just 25 straight days of rain, it didn't have a chance to heat up. The resort pools were also cold & in full shade, which is probably nice when it's hot out, but not when it's been raining so much. The biggest disappointment we had was that the restaurant burned down about a week before we arrived in the DR. So, we had to rent a car for groceries, go out every night, or have Johnny cook. There is no other onsite restaurant (think: frozen drink at the pool). On another note - the beach at the resort isn't really big enough (or safe enough because of the rock formations) to sit on or swim in. Pools or traveling to a local beach are the way to go. Our transportation from STI airport was through Cocotours, which was great. All in all, it was very good. Only 4 stars because of the restaurant not being there :(

Thank you for your review Beth. Unfortunately you arrived during the worst weather in years on the island ! There was almost constant rain for 28 days ! Many people lost their homes due to flooding and the goverment declared a state of emergency. As a result, the pools didn't get any sun, although normally they do, both at the villa and at the resort, again, when the weather cooperates ! The storms caused the ocean to be very rough. Not great for swimming with storms, although we swim there every time we visit, and normally there is a nice beach, as pictured on our site. The resort restaurant is being rebuilt shortly. It has been cleared of the damage and fixtures etc. are being ordered so it will be back up and running shortly. It was a sad and shocking event for everyone at Sea Horse, but they are efficient and professional at construction so we expect a new restaurant shortly. So sorry the weather literally put a damper on your vacation ! Sincerely, Claudia

Débuter l’année en beauté

Nous étions deux familles (4 adultes et 7 enfants (8-8-7-6-4–4-3). Les points positifs ; Nous avons été charmé à notre arrivée par la villa et la belle grande piscine. Lily a été incroyable pour nos enfants et nous tout le séjour. Son fils qui est chef nous a préparé presque tous les soirs d’excellents repas ! Un must. Il y a un parc d’eau à 5 minutes. Nous avons fait du cheval au Ranch, l’activité préférée de tout le monde. La plage de Cabarete est très belle, environ 20 minutes en taxi. Le restaurant sur le bord de l’eau (Beach Club) un gros hit. Points faibles ; Nous avons eu un problème le premier jour avec une toilette qui a débordée, par contre le personnel a beaucoup aidé. La douche et le bain en haut ne sont pas en bon état, mais nous avons pu avoir de l’aide avec la douche pour nous permettre de nous lavé. Comme la villa n’a pas de porte, il y avait énormément de bébites, lesards etc dans la maison. C’était notre premiere expérience dans une villa et nous avons ADORÉ ! Merci à Lily et son fils. Très belle villa n’hésitez pas à y aller. Stéphanie

Worse stay ever!

Once we arrived at the location we were greeted with a hostile welcoming. The host accused us of smuggling people into the complex and having a party which we had no intentions of doing. We were awaken by armed guards at 3 am on our second night there for having my cousin father-in-law with us after a night out. I didn’t think it would be in issue since the booking stated it can hold up to 10 guest. Before we could explain what happened to us to the guest, she demanded we leave the property. There was no warm running water, she just advised to take cold showers and there was a leak in the kitchen which one of my guest almost slipped on. DR is a beautiful country but this guest made my trip horrible.

Unfortunately this guest attempted to bring prostitutes and other unauthorized guests to the Villa. After two days of trying to get him to understand that we don't allow this kind of activity, ( violates the home rules ) he had to be escorted out. The hot water works just fine...I installed a solar heating system before his arrival, and used it myself the day before. No issues. He is right about just one thing, there was a small leak in the kitchen that the plumber came back to correct as soon as I was informed of the problem.

Great relaxing vacation

Very nice property for a family and friends. It is located very close to a cozy beach, it has a great private swimming pool and the common areas are very nice and also have other swimming pools in a nice setting. The property is very close to a restaurant with great views in front of the ocean. Maid Lily is a sweet heart that made our stay very enjoyable with her help and attention to our needs. We will come back for sure.

A blissful week of back to basics in luxury

We had a wonderful stay at Claudia’s home. The home is large and clean as well as very well appointed for a holiday home. Claudia is incredibly helpful and responsive. Lily, the housekeeper, is such a sweetheart and was exceptional with our children. It is worth noting that the house is open on the lower level, iron doors with no glass and it allows bugs in, although we didn’t have a horrible time with mosquitos. It took a bit of getting used to the fact we couldn’t lock the house at night but there were armed guards all around. By the time we left we felt safe and had made peace with sleeping in a home that we couldn’t secure. It is also a bit nerve wrecking having a toddler with the stairs so I’d say if you are traveling with really little ones do take into account the stairs and security rail upstairs that a small child could slip between/under. Lily was a Godsend helping me watch our daughter. She is incredible with children and such a willing, loving help. The bedrooms were super comfortable and the AC worked wonderfully, a welcome respite from the humidity and heat in the common areas. We slept very well. The pool and garden are beyond gorgeous, perfect for lazy breakfasts and pre dinner Apreos! The common area pools were a hit with our older children and the views from the clubhouse restaurant were stunning. The clubhouse is undergoing an overhaul and could use it in terms of the food quality. Location is second to none and the staff were friendly, kind and welcoming. The little beach isn’t ideal for swimming but perfect for a quick dip. It is picturesque and steps from the villa. Overall we loved our stay and would go back in a heartbeat. The home was wonderful value for money and a perfect pied à terre for kiteboarding in Cabarete.
