Villa Caribbean
We loved our stay. The space is beautiful, very tastefully decorated and with a cozy vibe that makes you feel right at home from the moment you arrive. Ideal for relaxing and experiencing a moment of peace. The location is excellent: very central and close to everything. The kitchen is very well equipped, perfect if you like to cook or just prepare something quick without complications. It was definitely a great experience — we would repeat it without thinking. 🙌

Breathtaking Villa with Ocean View
I had an unforgettable stay at this stunning villa! The ocean views were absolutely breathtaking, and the infinity pool was the perfect spot to relax and take it all in. The villa itself was spacious, beautifully designed, and incredibly peaceful—exactly what we were looking for. The resort amenities were top-notch, with everything from a fantastic spa to excellent dining options. Plus, the host was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for a serene getaway with all the luxury and comfort you could want!

beautifull / close to the beach
Check in was smooth jesus was very accommodating and helpful when we landed to check in and also gave us contacts to locals that helped us out booking excursions etc. the area is beautiful in my opinion one of the best areas for an airbnb compared to where I seen other people staying. Its literally a 2 minute walk to the beautiful BibiJagua beach gorgeous waters and white powder sand! I would say that the pictures don’t do this place justice it looks way better in person than it does in the photos. Overall my experience staying here is a 10/10 I would definitely stay here again and also recommend anyone that comes to DR to stay in this airbnb it close to everything & ubers are only $2-3 to get anywhere you need to go. It was easy to make friends with the locals they are wonderful people very helpful and respectful. Thank you to jesus for the wonderful experience!!!!!

luxury house with jacuzzi
It’s better than the description.

New! Exceptional 2BRM, 2.5 Bath, Hard Rock Complex
We truly enjoyed our stay at Gisselle's! Newly built complex, it was quiet, secure, and the Hard Rock and Beach Club are easy to walk to. The balconies are wonderful to relax on, the air conditioning works well, and there are lots of pots, pans, and utensils to use in the kitchen. Gisselle gave us so many recommendations on excursions and provided tips on grocery stores and resort day passes. We will absolutely stay with her again.

cozy apartment with a palm tree view

Your guide to Dominican Republic
All About Dominican Republic
Surrounded by turquoise waters, the island nation of the Dominican Republic contains lush rainforests, some of the highest mountain peaks in the Caribbean, and picturesque historic cities. The country, which occupies two-thirds of the island of Hispaniola (the other third belongs to Haiti), is lapped by the waters of the Atlantic Ocean to the north and the Caribbean Sea to the south, and its beautiful beaches are one of the biggest draws here.
Along Punta Cana’s coconut palm-lined shores — one of the longest white sand coastlines in the Caribbean — you’ll find a recreated 16th-century Mediterranean city and a natural reserve filled with shady, blue-green lagoons. At Cabarete Beach in Puerto Plata, you can try your hand at kitesurfing or windsurfing among some of the best waves on the island. Or explore the protected natural paradise of Bahia de las Aguilas, where the shallow crystalline waters lap the pure white sand against sheer, rugged cliff faces inside the Jaragua National Park, which is a protected UNESCO World Heritage site. The capital, Santo Domingo, was the first European-built city in the Americas. Here, you can browse the Museum of Natural History and the Memorial Museum of the Dominican Resistance, which commemorates those who resisted against Dominican dictator Trujillo, as well as the Calle El Conde, a pedestrian street lined with restored colonial buildings that now house restaurants, cafes, and shops.
One of the best ways to experience the country’s culture is through its food. The national dish is La Bandera Dominicana, which is rice and beans with stewed chicken, and is found in comedores (local restaurants) all over the country. Mangú, mashed green plantains with sautéed red onions, is a favorite for breakfast.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Dominican Republic
The Dominican Republic benefits from a warm Caribbean climate year-round, so any time is a great time to enjoy a stay at one of the many vacation rentals around the country. Summer is the warmest and rainiest season, with humidity at its highest from April to October. You can expect very warm days, and the chance of short, intense rainstorms. Festival de Merengue is the biggest summer festival here, which celebrates the country’s national music. December through March are the coolest months, but you can still expect plenty of daytime sunshine for enjoying the beach. In mountainous areas, temperatures can be quite cold, so if you’re visiting places like Jarabacoa and Constanza make sure you bring layers. In February, Carnival takes over the Dominican Republic, and San Domingo hosts the country’s liveliest celebrations with a street party every Sunday.
Top things to do in Dominican Republic
Zona Colonial (Colonial City)
Zona Colonial, originally founded in 1496, is in Santo Domingo and was the first city built by Spaniards when they arrived. Declared a UNESCO World Heritage site for being one of the most beautiful cities in the Caribbean, Zona Colonial comprises three beautiful cobblestoned streets surrounded by a walled perimeter. Buildings from the 16th century are still standing and can be explored, including the first fortress of the Americas, the country’s first cathedral, and its first university. When you’re done with a self-guided tour here, stroll along Calle El Conde, which is lined with shops and outdoor restaurants.
Jarabacoa
Head to the foot of the Dominican Alps to the mountain town of Jarabacoa, where you’ll find lush forests and a series of beautiful waterfalls. From the town, you can drive to individual falls, or you could do a full day hike to three of the most beautiful ones — Jimenoa Waterfall, Baiguate Waterfall, and Salto Secreto Waterfall. All offer spectacular scenery, and the chance for a refreshing swim.
Hoyo Azul (The Blue Hole)
Just outside Punta Cana, you’ll find the spectacular Hoyo Azul Lagoon, also known as the Blue Hole. This natural pool is a sinkhole located at the base of a cliff with the most amazing crystal-clear blue waters. To get there, you’ll need to walk for about 30 minutes through a tropical forest, and then take stairs down into a cave. You can swim in the lagoon and even zipline across it.
