Luxury 5BR Villa. Steps to Top Beach. 5 min walk to 20+Restaurants. Chef Option

āœ¦ WELCOME TO BAVARO āœ¦

If you've heard of "Punta Cana," what you've actually heard of is BAVARO ā€” the beach town home to Secrets, Now Larimar, Paradisus, BarcelĆ³, and Melia, and to a beach TripAdvisor ranks #7 in the world.

Punta Cana is the airport. Bavaro is where you actually want to be.

Our villa sits in Los Corales, the heart of Bavaro. A short walk to the beach. Walking distance to 20+ restaurants, two grocery stores, a bakery, two pharmacies, ATMs, a spa, and two gyms. NO CAR NEEDED.

āœ¦ THE VILLA ā€” 3,000 SQ FT, SLEEPS 10 āœ¦

Originally a 3-bedroom home, expanded in 2021 to 5 bedrooms, 5 ensuite marble bathrooms, and a powder room under the staircase. We also added the Sky Deck ā€” a rooftop platform perched above the palm trees with views of the Caribbean Sea on one side and the tropical mountains on the other.

āœ¦ 5 ENSUITE BEDROOMS ACROSS TWO FLOORS āœ¦

ā˜… 3 bedrooms on the main level, each with a private marble ensuite bath
ā˜… 2 suites upstairs ā€” one with a Juliet balcony
ā˜… Each bedroom: smart TV, ceiling fan, A/C, and large closets with original Caribbean Mahogany built-ins
ā˜… Three of the king beds split into singles on request

āœ¦ BATHROOMS: 5 MARBLE ENSUITE + 1 POWDER ROOM āœ¦

All 5 ensuite bathrooms were renovated with full floor-to-ceiling marble and oversized walk-in showers. No two are alike. The half-bath under the stairs is practical and convenient ā€” not fancy, but useful.

āœ¦ WHAT SETS THIS VILLA APART IN BAVARO āœ¦

ā˜… FULL WINDOW SCREENS throughout. Most rentals here don't have them. Open the windows, let the Caribbean breeze in, and skip the A/C bill if you choose.
ā˜… DEDICATED 100 MBPS WIFI on a private Orbi system ā€” yours alone, never shared with the building. Ideal for remote work.
ā˜… FULL AIR CONDITIONING in every room
ā˜… DISHWASHER ā€” uncommon in Punta Cana rentals
ā˜… FULL-SIZE WASHER AND DRYER on the second floor
ā˜… ORIGINAL CARIBBEAN MAHOGANY throughout ā€” wardrobes, doors, trim. This wood is now protected and cannot be replicated in modern construction. Heirloom craftsmanship.

āœ¦ THREE OUTDOOR DECKS āœ¦

ā˜… MAIN DECK (14 Ɨ 28 ft): U-shaped sofa, dining table for 8, ceiling fans, ocean breeze. Coffee in the morning, drinks at dusk.
ā˜… ROOFTOP DECK: Custom mahogany bar under a Cana thatched roof, lounge chairs, card table, gas grill, and the laundry center in a glass closet.
ā˜… SKY DECK: Perched above everything. Four rocking chairs that captivate guests for hours, lounge chairs, an outdoor living-room set with waterproof cushions. Watch parasailers in the Caribbean by day, fireworks across Bavaro at night.

āœ¦ THE KITCHEN āœ¦

Renovated with white shaker cabinets, granite countertops, breakfast bar, full appliance suite, and the rare-in-Bavaro dishwasher.

āœ¦ THE LIVING AREA āœ¦

Open-concept ā€” custom U-shaped sofa, 70" smart TV, granite dining table, and Caribbean wood windows.

āœ¦ OPTIONAL SERVICES (ƀ LA CARTE) āœ¦

ā˜… CHEF RAFAEL ā€” daily meals or one special dinner. He's a local favorite.
ā˜… DRIVER SERVICE ā€” airport transfers (one trip or multiple, however your group arrives), private excursions, anywhere you need to go.
ā˜… DAILY MAID SERVICE ā€” available on request.

GREGORY, our villa manager, speaks English, Spanish, and a few other languages. He's been with the villa for years and gives every guest a tour at check-in.

āœ¦ THE NEIGHBORHOOD āœ¦

ā˜… BEACH: Bavaro Beach, ranked #7 in the world by TripAdvisor. Private community access with lounge chairs and palapas.
ā˜… RESTAURANTS WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE: Soles, Pelican, HuracĆ”n, Tocs, Onno's, Captain Cook, Beach Party, Jellyfish, Langosta Roja, and 10+ more
ā˜… PLAZA EL DORADO AND PLAZA TURQUESA (5 min walk): grocery stores, bakery, gym, pharmacy, ATM
ā˜… WEDDING RESORTS within 15 min walk: Now Larimar, Secrets, Paradisus Bavaro, Melia Tropical, BarcelĆ³ Bavaro
ā˜… PUNTA CANA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT: 20ā€“25 minutes by car

āœ¦ WATER SPORTS & EXCURSIONS FROM THE BEACH āœ¦

Catamaran tours, pirate cruises, sunset cruises, parasailing, jet skis, speed boats, water skiing, windsurfing, ultra-light plane rides, spa cruises. The main pier is at the edge of our beach.

āœ¦ A 50-PAGE HOSPITALITY BOOK āœ¦

Once you book, you'll receive our 50-page hospitality book ā€” organized with a table of contents and photos. We've done the research so you don't have to. It covers the villa, the pool, the beach, excursions, local customs, tipping, currency, and safety. A separate restaurant guide includes 20+ favorite local spots with unpublished specials.

āœ¦ THINGS TO KNOW āœ¦

ā˜… Electricity is metered separately and not included in the rental ā€” meter is read at check-in and check-out, billed at departure or deducted from deposit. Approximately $30ā€“50/day with moderate A/C use. Open the windows, use the screens, save the bill.
ā˜… Three of the five king beds split into singles on request.
ā˜… The community is fully walkable. No car required.

āœ¦ ABOUT THE OWNERS āœ¦

We're an Owner-Broker family ā€” Pat (Real Estate Broker, Pat Fahy and Associates, Philadelphia ā€” one of the first women to graduate from Villanova business school and one of the first female Broker-Owners in the state of Pennsylvania) and Lori (PA Broker of Record, Bally Gwynedd Realty).

Family fun

This house was everything we wanted for our family of 6 (3 couples). It was one of several houses in a beautiful community of large spanish style villas. The immediate area was like a dream and very close to the beach(5 minute walk) Seaweed was a bit much, but I got used to it. We built precious memories.

Los corales was a great villa with two convenient, reasonably priced and good restaurants right on sight. Pat has a spacious place for a group to stay. Beach is close by and a short walk to additional restaurants, grocery and shopping. Pat provides a ton of information and help to make your stay easy. If you need internet...she has a nice set up. I have stayed other places and was always getting bumped off.

Villa Poseidon was perfect for our large family of grown children. There was plenty of space in the 5 large bedrooms/bathrooms to retreat and have our own space as well as large living space to gather for meals and family time. The large deck with a grill was used for several evening meals and the rooftop deck was nice for sunning as well as relaxing after a day at the beach. The beach is about a block away with very easy access. There is a pool just outside the house which was refreshing, partially in the shade most of the day so it didnā€™t get too hot, you could always find a spot out of the sun if you wanted. There are several restaurants and small grocery stores close by to get groceries which was very handy. Pat does have a welcome booklet that lays out all these details which is very useful. Greg, the manager, is also very helpful. We did not rent a car and they arranged transportation from the airport to the house and back again for us. Pat is an excellent hostess. She truly wants everyone to have the best time and experience possible!! She answered all of my questions prior to traveling to the Dominican. On our final day our flight was cancelled and I thought we might end up sleeping on the beach as many flights were cancelled and hotels were fullā€¦ but Pat let us stay in the house an additional night until our airline got our flight arrangements sorted out. Absolutely the hostess with the most.

We had such a wonderful time at this Villa, in Los Corales and the DR. This was our first visit to this part of the Island and it did not disappoint. The water is crystal clear. The Villa is the perfect location for beach and pool with all the amenities. Pat is a perfect hostess and her tips of what to do and see weā€™re spot on. Greg, the property manager, was there at check in to welcome and to make sure we had the most enjoyable time. Highly recommend a visit to this Villa and the DR.

Great property in a safe neighborhood

I took hosted a graduation trip for my 18 yr old son and his four best friends. We found the house very much to our liking. Very comfortable beds and very convenient location just a few minutes walk to restaurants and grocery stores. The pool was just outside our door which was really nice to cook off in before and after the beach. We had a couple issues the first day and they were both addressed immediately by Gregory the property manager. We were also recommended a chef for a night by Pat and Gregory and it was truly one of the best meals we have ever had! Will definitely be renting again the next time we travel to PC!

Most relaxing vacation ever!

This was our first trip to Punta Cana. it was wonderful. The beach for this unit was beautiful. D'Angelos pizza as a perfect option for us for many meals. BaliCana was awesome also, I think we ate there 5 times. If you are willing to leave the community, NamNam was a wonderful surprise. The Chicken Boom was the bomb! There is also a very nice bakery close by that had great prices and fast service. Pat was wonderful to work with and the onsite help was great. Arturo, our driver, was very good. We are hoping to return and bring our children.

We did have one issue though, the dishwasher was not working, BUT, Pat came through like a champ sent someone out (on her dime) twice to clean our dishes.

Awesome time condo is in a perfect location with restaurants and shops in walking distance. Beach is beautiful. You'll need to travel outside the neighborhood if your looking for cheaper restaurants and stores. Greg the manager took care of all the small problems that happened when we were there . Ac breaker broke but was fixed in about 2 hours. They have some construction going on and the water was on off the first couple days but it t was resolved quickly.

Wonderful retreat, old world charm

This large upper house was wonderful for our 12 day stay. 630 steps from Los Corales Beach, this little enclave is sheltered from noise and activity of bustling plaza and night life just blocks away. It's convenient to grocery stores and dining. The house was clean and well kept. Five bedrooms each with it's own bath was wonderful. Dishwasher and washer and dryer a plus. Pat Faye, the owner, was steps away and very responsive to any questions or needs. She has researched and documented all needs in a hospitality guide. She went above and beyond! This is our third trip to Los Corrales. We would definitely rent here again.

Stay in Los Corales Villa was wonderful!

The property is in a nice gated community, very quiet and beautify kept. Close to a wonderful beach and all the walk to restaurants we ate at were good. The community pool was never packed and a nice alternative to the beach. The house was spacious for the 6 adults in our group. The kitchen could use some updating, but we didn't go there to cook. We followed Pat's recommendation for keeping the house cool and only used the air conditioner a few times keeping our electric bill down. Pat, the owner was very helpful from the time we reserved her house to check out. Yves the driver she recommended was the best. All of the people we interacted with were helpful and friendly. I would stay here again if I come back to the DR.

Great cozy home!

This is a valued home for big groups! It is not perfect but spacious and with everything needed to make a trip memorable! Walking distance to beach. Owner is on top of things. She will guide you all the way and make sure you are treated well. Even at the beach they already had my name and were waiting for me. This is a great budget home that offers a lot of home comforts. Specially for those who don't enjoy the craziness of hotels and having to park with a valet or far from the room as well as to adhere to eating within a certain window. By the way if you come you need to go to Coco Bongos! The place is amazing. But make sure to get the VIP table to really get the complete experience!

Great vacation!

We had a great experience on our vacation! Communication with both Pat and Greg was excellent. We didn't have a lot of questions once we arrived because Pat had provided a lot of helpful information prior to our trip. And, once we arrived we had immediate answers to the couple of questions we had. Transport to and from the airport was great. We all arrived together but departed in two separate groups. Having these arrangements made for us was super helpful and removed a lot of stress from the equation - all we had to do was get in the van! We had the chef come in two of the nights of our stay. I would highly recommend Rafael!! The food was amazing, the cost was very affordable, and he really catered to our likes. I also have to say the beach was AMAZING. We had originally planned go on some excursions during our trip. However, we ended up just going to the beach every day - it was beautiful and bobbing around in the water was totally relaxing!! We came home relaxed and rejuvenated!!!

Beautiful, Convenient, Delicious!

We stayed here for several days with two teenagers, two grandparents and two parents. The rooms and bathrooms are so convenient and the layout of the entire place is lovely. The check-in process was very easy and everyone is so nice! Everything is within a very short, walking distance, including the pool, restaurants, and of course, the gorgeous beach! We had a little trouble finding the place, (we were driving ourselves in a rental), and we called Ms. Pat and she stayed on the phone with us to point us in the right direction and arrive with no problems. Talk about customer service! She is the best hostess weā€™ve ever had in our vacation experiences. She provides more than enough information, and she is extremely helpful with all questions. We always felt safe throughout our visit. And the staff at the nearby restaurants could not be nicer! The food and drinks are delicious at Enjoy. We also had two meals at Soles restaurant on the beach. Unbelievably delicious and the customer service is out of site.The beds were very comfy, the showers worked well with plenty of hot water, the kitchen is well appointed, including a coffee maker and a microwave and a blender. The sunroom-type sitting room at the entrance is a fantastic place to hang out in the evenings and just enjoy a cocktail with family. We also used the gas grill on the terrace. My son wanted to see a soccer game, and the big TV in the living room works perfectly and is a very nice picture. Great place!
