About this property

Sophisticated Villa in an Exclusive Resort, just steps to a private resort beach

Villa Mediterranean is an elegant villa in the Dominican Republic on the North Coast 's most exclusive oceanfront resort, Sea Horse Ranch. The home has luxurious accommodations with maid service, a gardener, pool maintenance and security. A chef can be made available by request. ( Ask about our reduced rates for smaller groups of 2-4 guests, $100/person per night. )
This twelve room 7400 sq. ft. Spanish Colonial home was built with quality and care in 2006 and is very well maintained and regularly updated. A three minute walk behind the garden leads to the private beach on the breathtaking turquoise ocean, the resort's ocean front pool and beach club restaurant. The Villa also has its own large classic pool and spacious terrace for gathering with family or friends. Both master suites have their own terrace overlooking the garden and pool. The tap water system in the villa is purified, chemical free and safe for drinking. ( This is rare in the Caribbean ).
Enter through the massive wrought iron gated entry doors and take in the grand foyer. As you continue into the gracious well-appointed living room with beamed ceilings you will see the terrace, pool and grounds through a row of arched iron filigree gates.
Luxurious accomodations: No detail has been spared in the construction and finishes. The floors are honed crema marble with the exception of the family room which is Brazilian cherry to absorb sound and has a large flatscreen, cable and wifi. The gourmet kitchen has custom mahogany cabinetry, Mexican wall tiles, white carrera honed marble counters and a full freezer/ refrigerator to accommodate large groups of family and friends. The owner, who is a designer, continues to add distinctive paintings and art to the rooms that give the home a sophisticated feel.
All bedrooms are ensuite. There is a master suite on the main level, and an additional
master suite on the second level, both with king beds. There are also three other bedrooms with queen beds, and twin beds in one room that can be combined to create a king bed.
Sea Horse Ranch Resort is a beautifully maintained community with 24 hour security, a clay tennis club with five courts , walking paths, and an equestrian center for riding lessons or trail riding. The El Bosque club restaurant rests on a coral reef jutting out over the water and serves takeout and or poolside. The food is excellent and reasonable , child friendly and they even have gluten free pasta !
Nearby Attractions: Golfers can head to the Playa Dorado Robert Trent Jones course 30 minutes away driving west or the world famous “Playa Grande” course built along the ocean, which is 45 minutes away in the other direction. The adjacent Cabarette beach is a world renowned kite surfing haven for surfers and onlookers. It is a great place to relax, swim, and eat at several of the great beach front restaurants, and shop at the many boutiques in town. Nearby Sosua has several good outdoor restaurants, many with sunset views, a fun local beach, a European spa, two wonderful bakeries and a large grocery store that is five driving minutes from the villa.

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!

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

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.

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.

About the host

Hosted by Claudia Langman

Host profile image
I am a designer and developer in Chicago and in the Harbour Country along Lake Michigan, where many Chicagoans have second homes. My family and I have been coming to the Dominican for almost 30 years and have spent a great deal of our leisure time here on the North Coast.
We love staying at the villa. When we built the home we wanted it to be elegant but also fun and relaxing for guests so they can enjoy the same wonderful experience we do. I have since added many updates and improvements to the home, such as tankless hot water heaters, solar energy, etc.

Why they chose this property

We love the Dominican for it's diversity, it's beautiful beaches, and it's people. There is so much to do there because it is a large island with mountains, desert, jungle, waterfall and river tours. The cities are old and historic, and the museums are unique and interesting. The food is fantastic, and the kite surfing in our area is amazing to watch, or to learn. At the end of a day of exploring it is so nice to return to the tranquil private setting of this home.

What makes this property unique

REGARDING COVID 19 : We want guests and staff to feel safe. Maids will keep a proper distance from guests and will wear masks. We can also offer a credit if guests prefer not to have staff in the villa, or the maids can clean and prepare food when guests are at the pool or beach to provide social distance.
The villa is located in an extremely well run gated and guarded community. It is beautifully maintained, quiet and very safe, yet 5 minutes from Cabarete and Sosua where there are great restaurants, shopping, more beaches, kite and wind surfing, zip lining, snorkeling, jungle river tours and other excursions.
