Perla Marina · between Sosúa and Cabarete

Your private homeby the ocean.

The privacy of a villa, the ease of a private hotel.

Aerial view of Villa Valesta, its pool and gardens facing the ocean

Villa Valesta sits right on the ocean in Perla Marina, a quiet, gated international community between Sosúa and Cabarete. It feels like a private home, and it runs like a small hotel: every detail of your stay is handled by a dedicated team, so your group can simply enjoy being together.

Upstairs, four ensuite bedrooms open onto the sea breeze. Downstairs, generous living rooms flow out to two terraces, a large private pool and an outdoor lounge with a billiard table, all set in tropical gardens with the sound of the waves in the background.

Step outside and a coastal trail through forest and wild beaches leads to the surf village of Encuentro, a beachfront yoga platform and the tennis club at Sea Horse Ranch. Cabarete’s restaurants and nightlife are 15 minutes away with your private driver.

A Day at Villa Valesta

Everyone enjoys their own perfect day

Morning

Slow Mornings

Coffee on the terrace to the sound of the waves, a walk along the coastal trail, then breakfast outside as everyone gathers to plan the day.

Late Morning

Everyone Finds Their Adventure

Pickleball or tennis nearby, a surf lesson at Encuentro, yoga by the ocean, or a book by the pool. Your driver handles every transfer.

Midday

Back Together for Lunch

A fresh lunch prepared at the villa brings the group back together, while the house is refreshed and yesterday’s sportswear is washed and folded.

Afternoon

Pool, Trail or Horseback

Swim, explore the trail between forest and sea, ride along the shoreline, or discover the hidden cove steps from the villa.

Sunset

Cocktails on the Point

Appetizers and cocktails in the outdoor lounge as the sun sets over the ocean, while tomorrow’s plans take shape with one message to your concierge.

Evening

Dinner Your Way

A dinner at the villa, or a table on the sand in Cabarete. Later, a swim under the stars or a glass of Dominican rum in the lounge.

Within walking distance

Walk there.
Ride back.

The villa sits directly on the ocean, on a rocky shoreline shaped by the waves. For sand and swimming, beautiful beaches are just a short walk away, and the best of the area is discovered on foot. Our favorite formula: walk there, and ride back with your driver.

“The house is in a fantastic location and is even more impressive in person, the pictures truly don’t do it justice. … The pool is beautiful, and the views of the water are unforgettable. It really feels like a five-star tropical getaway.”
Cate
“3 large outdoor living spaces, HUGE pool. You can hear the waves crash against the coastline all day long, makes it feel like you are on the beach from the comfort of your backyard. … Felt like a luxury vacation for a reasonable cost.”
Andrew
“My family and I, three generations, spend a lovely week at this wonderful villa. … The view of the ocean, the amazing pool, kept us outside all day. Every one of us was so relaxed and we hardly left the place. … We felt so safe there.”
Lauren
“This house was perfect for our family trip. We had 11 family members in the house, ages 2 to 70 and everyone absolutely loved it. … The house was beautiful, clean, and well-kept and the views are incredible.”
