Caribbean Cruisin'

Caribbean Cruisin': La Altagracia

Feel the warm breeze of the Caribbean sea air brush your skin as you wake up to the ever-shining sun's positive energy each day from this slice of heaven in the Dominican Republic.

Tucked away on an exclusive beachside resort location, the villa is surrounded by palm trees, luscious vegetation and tropical plants – granting you a secluded escape that still benefits from the social aspect of being located on a holiday resort.

Upon arrival, prepare to be mesmerised by the captivating driveway and entrance hall, paving the way to a luxurious experience from then on out. Think giant chandeliers, coralina tiles, high ceilings and vast open spaces, alongside state-of-the-art finishings and high-quality furniture.

Giving off an air of modern glamour throughout, neutral tones and contemporary fittings create a comfortable space to kick back in between soaking up the stunning natural scenery, beaches and leisure activities of the surrounding locale.

With decadent lounge seating areas inside, as well as further sumptuous lounging spots found outside on the terrace, in the garden and by the pool – you'll be spoiled for choice when it comes to finding your perch with a cold drink in hand.

Or why not head up to the second-floor balcony to soak up the gorgeous golf club views? Also, on this floor, you'll find a media room – perfect for curling up in front of your favourite movie after a day on the beach.

The garden setting is just as tempting as out here, there is a shaded alfresco dining area, a large outdoor swimming pool and endless evergreen views overlooking the resort's golf course and gardens.

With so much to see and do here, the hardest part of your day will be parting ways with your private corner of paradise. That being said, it would be rude not to make the most of the vast array of activities available, including golf, tennis, sailing, windsurfing, kite surfing, snorkelling, scuba diving, deep-sea fishing and horseback riding. Oh, and there's an on-site gym and spa if the art of relaxation is more your thing.
