Where you’ll be

Las Terrenas, Samana, Dominican Republic

MONTE PLACIDO is a private residence that overlooks the ocean. We are not a hotel. We are not open to the public. We are gated and safe. Our little mountain top is always open to the refreshing Atlantic Trade winds thus virtually mosquito fee. We are in pastoral setting close to the typical Dominican village of La Barbacoa. You will discover local culture and meet our charming and friendly neighbors. There is a Elementary school, and if you feel inclined, they are so very happy to accept donations.
