About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Amazing Familiar Villa Caribbean Style!!!

Better wear your swimsuit on the flight, because as soon as the plane touches down at Punta Cana airport, you’re just a 15-minute drive from your villa away from home in the Dominican Republic. Poolside drinks are waiting!

Pool, Palms and Privacy
This 7,000 square foot home, set within a 3/4-acre garden paradise, is yours to enjoy in total privacy.

Slip off your sandals and enjoy a refreshing swim under the palms in Villa Harmony’s crystal-blue pool. Pour yourself a glass of something bubbly, press play on your favorite playlist (piped in through the indoor/outdoor stereo system) and relax into your vacation. This is how we do in the Islands.

Friends and Family
Whether you’re on a girlfriend getaway or a family vacation with the kids, Villa Harmony’s three spacious bedrooms can accommodate up to 8 of your favorite people.

Each room features its own en-suite bath, A/C and flat-screen TV with satellite. Your guests can drop their luggage in either the double queen room or the bunk room, which has a twin bunk up top, full mattress below and a separate king-sized bed -- perfect for kids and grownups alike.

Claim the master suite for yourself, with its cushy queen bed and bathroom complete with shower, bidet and his-and-hers sinks. A siesta-ready hammock awaits on the adjacent patio.

Indoor/Outdoor Living
When you’re not floating in the pool, you could be dozing in the oh-so-comfy cabana bed or playing billiards or foosball in the A/C-cooled game room (there’s also paddle tennis and a half basketball court on the property). The palm-lined lawn has plenty of space for the pups to roam (yes, Villa Harmony is pet-friendly!)

As the day mellows into a lusciously warm, breezy Dominican evening, gather in the 16-person outdoor dining room for an unforgettable family meal (prepared by you or, if you like, by Villa Harmony staff) and after-dinner drinks around the oversized coffee table.

From the Fairway to the Shore, Punta Cana At Your Doorstep
Only 15 minutes from the airport, Villa Harmony is located a short drive from some the best beaches in the DR.

Within just a few mile radius you’ll find 10 top-tier golf courses, including one just five minutes from the house. Or use the villa as a base to explore the island’s historic side, with outings to sites like Santo Domingo, the oldest city in the Americas, about two hours away.

Punta Cana is a place of many charms, and Villa Harmony puts you in the middle of it all. But with so many different ways to relax within the villa’s garden walls, you might just wind up staying in.

Beautiful grounds with private pool!

Beautiful grounds with a private pool! We enjoyed most everything about our Anniversary getaway. It was nice to have a cook on hand. We enjoyed Yahuel’s cooking. We tasted authentic savory meals. Be aware there is a cat that lives on site.. If you are a pet lover that’s great.. If not, or have allergies be prepared.

Great week at Villa Harmony!

We had a wonderful week at Villa Harmony for my daughter’s senior spring break. The property is gorgeous, the pool is amazing, and Jenny was an incredible host. She was very responsive and was able to give recommendations for grocery stores, restaurants, and beaches. Having an on-site housekeeper gave us the benefits of a hotel while enjoying the peace and quiet of a private home. Ivelisse took very good care of us all week. We would very highly recommend Villa Harmony!

An oasis of tranquility and kindness

We were in the DR for the first time to celebrate a friend's 90th birthday. Having a residence with common areas that would allow us to gather was of importance to us, and this property did not disappoint! While we loved the property, the property manager and the housekeeper/overseer were even more outstanding: responsive to our needs and wants, impeccable in their integrity, and truly kind.

Relaxing private Villa Getaway

I booked this Villa to get away for a week to relax and recharge and it was the perfect place to stay for just that. It was private and secure and everything was in great condition. The rooms were very nice and comfortable and the pool was amazing. The property manager Jenny was very pleasant and attentive to me and available for any questions and genuinely wanted me to enjoy my vacation. The live in house keeper/ cook was amazing as well and always available to cook, clean or assist me whenever I needed anything. I really enjoyed the small ponds that had fish and turtles that I feed every day. I would definitely recommend this Villa and will stay there again when I return to the Dominican Republic.

Amazing Experience!!

Me and my wife could not be happier with our experience during out stay. We were greeted by an incredible host (Jenny) that went above and beyond at every turn. The home was very well maintained and exactly as pictured (a nice surprise these days). The 24hr maid service was phenomenal. Anny took care of us at all hours. Anything we asked for was done with a smile. She cooked incredible meals for us and made sure to clean up everytime we left our room. I could not be happier with the service. The quality of the food was exceptional. Thank you Jenny for having such an amazing home available for us, in such a prime location. We couldn't have asked to spend out honeymoon anywhere better in all of the Dominican Republic!

Words can't describe how wonderful this property is. We have used home away in many place and Alfonso's property is now one of my favorites. I can't say enough about Angela the house keeper who made our trip one that we will not forget. From the time we got off of the airplane we were impressed with the accommodations. Angela had breakfast and dinner for us daily, our personal driver was always on time and Alfonso even sent s gentleman named Hugo to the house to plan our week. 1st class treatment.Thank you Alfonso and we hope to return soon.

Family Time

Jenny was AMAZING to work with!!! She was attentive & sweet!!! She bent over backwards to make sure our trip was what we wanted & needed!!!! The house was what the pictures and write up described! We spent 90% of our time in the pool, which was GREAT!!!! My ONLY critique, which did not even have an impact on our trip, but if the water around the seating area was cleaned, so we could enjoy the turtles & fish it would have been even better! I love to watch the water life but they were hard to see in the murkey water!! But LOVED the cat!! He was VERY sweet & greeted us every morning & cuddled next to me on the sofa outside! He made me miss mine even less!!! Will DEFINITLY stay at this house or another one of Jennie's houses again!!!!! She is the BEST!!!!! <3

Clean, Comfortable Compound

We searched for a clean, safe, private home to relax in the DR & this was it! We called it a “Caribbean Compound” because we had this whole place to ourselves. Other than our housekeeper/cook, Lisandra who was Wonderful, we had this Beautiful, well- maintained “camp” to relax in private. Good thing there’s a great pool ( about 5’ deep throughout) because we ate a lot of delicious food & needed a little exercise. 😎 We shopped & went to the beach, but mostly stayed at the property. The manager, Jenny was Fantastic! Lots of energy, & available to come to the property whenever needed. Both Jenny & Lisandra were very enjoyable to meet. The concierge service was very helpful & friendly too. This was an Excellent Oasis we would love to re-visit. Thank You, Jenny for a great stay!!

Best vacation ever!

Jenny's villa is so beautiful! There were 6 of us, for 10 days and we were very comfortable. The setting is in paradise, the grounds are well kept, and we felt very safe. Martha, the housekeeper/cook made breakfast and dinner for us every day. She went to the grocery store with us and picked out the food, and then prepared amazing dishes! The Concierge Service that Jenny uses asked us every day if we wanted them to make dinner reservations for us and we always said, "No, we'd rather stay in the villa and eat Martha's food!" Jenny was available for anything, anytime. She is a real treasure! The location is near a grocery store, golf course, and the beach. The nights were quiet and undisturbed by anything. We love this place and cannot wait to return! Thank you Jenny and Martha!

From Arrivial, I was Greeted by Jenny. Super Professional, intelligent, gracious host. She was always available if I had questions. I then Met Martha, she is the House Keeper here. This is a most amazing lady and the week we spent together here has forged a strong friendship. She takes the utmost care of the Home and of the Guests. She works so very hard, that at night I was sure not to Disturb her as she deserves her rest, I would encourage any future guests to please reconize this. The Villa was perfect for my needs. I spent all most everynight in the pool wathing the nights Sky. It is Located close to many amenities, and yet you can enjoy the peacful surrounding without the noise and crowds of a resort. I am coming back in the fall and this is the only place I will want to stay.

A Real Vacation

My family of 4 kids ages 1,4,7, and 10 had the best time at Villa Harmony. We felt well taken care of from Jenni with all of the communication and with the concierge service. What set this place apart from all the other houses we've stayed at is Martha, the housekeeper. She is everything that makes this house special. Her cooking was amazing and she took care of all of our needs. The children loved her as well and she loved our children. The pool was cleaned every morning and sometimes at night too. The area is safe with guards at the entrance of the neighborhood. Being so close to the airport was helpful after a long flight. The grocery store is similar to a Walmart with all different types of food available to feed our kids. Bring plenty of bug spray. We don't normally stay at a house more than once, but this villa will be the exception.

Great Stay-Book If Available

From first message to our goodbye, Jenny was an amazing host. Very communicative and a beautiful villa once we arrived. The Villa is as amazing as pictured. We never left! Lovely bedrooms, a massive well maintained pool, a garden with turtles and fish for my kids to feed, truly luxurious outdoor living. We played tennis and basketball, swam and subbed on the lovely outdoor furniture. The true star of the Villa was Martha. She quietly and kindly attended to all of our needs without ever being invasive. This is a tricky balance. Martha cooked every breakfast and dinner for our family. The food was amazing and professionally prepared for an incredibly reasonable price. Our daily grocery trips to get ingredients for Martha were so fun and culturally great for our kiddos-to buy and eat new and amazing Dominican ingredients. We really felt well taken care of by Jenny and Martha and highly recommend the Villa for anyone.

Wonderful Experience!!

I cannot say enough great things about Jenny and Villa Harmony! My husband planned this trip for my birthday and it was the absolute best. The property was gorgeous and so relaxing. Sometimes the pictures at other rentals can be a bit deceiving but Jenny and her team has done a fantastic job of maintaining the property. We had the whole place to ourselves but it could easily fit a large group of family or friends. Jenny stayed in touch from the moment we booked the property and made sure we were well taken care of upon arrival. It was a pleasure to meet her in person! Also, Brenda who was the chef/housekeeper was amazing! She was very considerate in asking about our meal plans and made sure everything was prepared based on our requests. Professional and respectful of our privacy at all times, but such a delight to chat with (with the help of Google translate, lol) and learn more about the Dominican Republic. Jenny also gave us a great suggestion for a concierge service and they did not disappoint. Big shot out to Fernando and Hayter for their outstanding service. My husband and I have talked about the whole experience several times since we have been back home and cannot think of a thing we would change, except next time we will stay much longer. Thanks Jenny for helping make sure my birthday was everything I could have hoped for. We hope to be back soon!

We were so fortunate to have this as our first Dominican experience

The property manager met us at the property, despite it being a late night with a late flight. The photos don't do it justice, you truly have your own private, luxurious villa all to yourself. The outdoors is surrounded by water features, complete with fish and turtles, which were the absolute favorite of my kids. The bedrooms are all seperate to eachother. Very private, each with their own bathroom and shower. Beds were comfortable and clean. Wifi was reliable. HVAC kept things comfortable on the humid days. The housekeeper was wonderful, she was very attentive but not intrusive. She made our meals on time and everything was delicious. Language was a bit of a barrier, but google translate helped with that. The host, Jenny, was truly a godsend. She was attentive to all of our needs, helped organize the concierge, and even drove medication to us when we were sick towards the end of our visit. The property was very safe, in its own gated/guarded community. Every entrant is verified. The pool was cleaned everyday, the games room was fun. The enormous couch was amazing to just lay on and absorb the view. This is one property we would stay at more than once. Jenny truly made us feel like family at her family home. Transportation is a consideration here, you should have arrangements for transport or rent a car to get around.

Best host and villa

From the first inquiry to the host, until last minute of checking out, the host Jenny has to be the best host from all the vacation homes we have ever stayed. She answered and accommodated all our inqueries, within short period of time. When we got there and I forgot to buy cigarettes from the grocery store, she even gave me her pack and lighter. The next day, she personally delivered two packs for me, as we did not have a car to drive to the store. The villa, is big and beautiful. It's like you have a resort all to yourself. The pool was very nice, but the days we were there were cloudy and a little chill so the water was too cold for us. However our 3 year old son enjoyed feeding the fishes and turtles, and playing at the pool table very much. Martha was there taking care of making sure the place was nice and clean, yet she still made us feel having all the privacy. She cooked for us when we didn't feel like going out to eat, and wow, her cooking was YUMMY!! She was extremely nice. Too bad we couldn't speak Spanish to chat with her and get to know her more. However, Jenny was always one text away to make the request for us, when we need to have the delicious meal prepared. Over all we enjoyed our short stay very much. A tip for small group like us, you should consider to rent a car, as the car service charges a good amount per trip, even for a short 10 min trip to the beach or grocery store, as it was always a private 10 people bus. Second, considering many greens and the fish ponds in ground, the mosquito situation was not as bad during the day. However, during sunset, all the mosquitos came out. Make sure bring the big spray, or stay in the room during that time. Actually, the host Jenny already told us these tips :-)

Excellent property with great access to Bavaro/Punta Cana

We recently completed our trip to Punta Cana where we stayed at this property for a little over a week. We found the property to be very accommodating, comfortable, and well-maintained. Jenny was a very responsive host at any time I tried to contact her. She welcomed us on the first day and was available via mobile the remainder of the trip. Angela lived on premise and she kept the home in great shape. We utilized her for several meals over the course of the week and I appreciated the good Dominican fare. The location was very convenient to reach the Bavaro or Punta Cana areas. It sits in a little residential enclave of about 3 houses and we felt very secure as their were guards posted at the gates at all times. It sits between a local attraction and some commercial/industry but with the exception of some helicopter traffic (expect 2-3 fly-overs per day (never at night)) it was quiet and we felt we were in our own little world. We utilized a driver (Simon) for the trip but I would recommend getting a car if you will be here a week. I would use Simon for first couple of days to get familiar with area but as I said it is very conveniently located so once you get the hang of it you should have no problem with your own car. Simon provided excellent rates and was always responsive and at our disposal. He provides a care-free option for transportation. He even made a special trip to the store when one of our guests had a night of travelers tummy and we needed some Gatorade to help with liquids. I would suggest making your way to Bavaro, we enjoyed Omno as it was on the beach so we could go walking after a few drinks, Huracan Cafe was also very good for this. Juanillo Beach is nice but quite windy, Macao Beach was gorgeous and very sandy which was nice. We did a trip to Saona which was fun for a "booze cruise" trip but it was very crowded. If you don't want to be bunched with a lot of ppl, avoid this excursion. We did a day trip to Samana by air and that was certainly the highlight of the trip. I would definitely recommend this journey. Overall, it was a very good trip and this property was a welcome destination and the end of each day. We spent many a night at the big table playing cards and talking the night away. Our pool and ping-pong tournaments were equally intense. Enjoy your stay!

A paradise retreat!

This was our first trip to the Dominican Republic and we could not have picked a better host and property! From the first inquiry I made until our last hour, Jenny was responsive and incredibly attentive to our every need. The location seemed great for us as it wasn't far from the airport (maybe 15 mins) and very close to the supermarket, which we needed every day with our family. We felt very safe and had all we absolutely needed to enjoy hanging at the house each evening. We were a family of 7 with two couples and three adult children and everyone slept comfortably. Our three children are grown, so it wasn't ideal for them to share a bedroom, but they each had their own bed and a bathroom to share. The ensuite bedrooms are spacious with very large showers. The outdoor spaces really make the home. We had so many areas to lounge and enjoy without being on top of one another and wonderful gathering spaces in which we could all fit comfortably. The sunken outdoor lounge area was our evening spot for games and great conversation after many rounds of competition in the game room. We loved Juanillo Beach as the service and food there was really good. We played golf a couple of days and can't say enough about Punta Espada - a sight to see! We also enjoyed a day of the fun waves at Macao. Jenny connected us with Claudia at Your Concierge service and she took the worry and hassle out of all the details for us. Claudia arranged all of our drivers as we chose this route instead of renting a large van. (We had heard too many bad stories of the rental process and it was ghastly expensive.) Our drivers were always prompt, as nice as could be and patient with us and our daily runs to the grocery. Claudia made every tee time and arranged reservations for us at the beach so all we had to do was show up and have chairs and tables waiting for us! Can't recommend her services enough. With all of the amenities and fun, still I think we would all say Angela, the housekeeper and cook, was the BEST part of our trip! We LOVED her and her cooking was outstanding! She would give us a list of ingredients to buy and she would prepare the most amazing meals! It was lovely to wake up to coffee and a wonderful breakfast each morning and end the day with a fabulous authentic meal. She kept things spotless and maintained each day for us - such a treat. We cannot recommend this property enough and hope to visit again very soon! Thank you, Jenny!!

Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt in der Vila sehr genossen und kann sie nur empfehlen! Die Gastgeberin Jenny war äusserst bemüht, freundlich und stets hilfsbereit. Auch die Haushälterin Yahoo war eine grosse Bereicherung für unseren Aufenthalt. Sie hat ein köstliches Frühstück zubereitet und war stets darauf bedacht, unsere Privatsphäre zu respektieren. Zusätzlicher Pluspunkt: Sie kümmerte sich auch um unsere Wäsche, was wirklich sehr hilfreich war. Die Vila selbst ist zwar etwas abgelegen, was jedoch durch die ruhige Lage ausgeglichen wird. Ich empfehle dringend, einen Mietwagen zu nutzen, um die Umgebung besser erkunden zu können. Der grosse Pool wurde regelmässig gereinigt und war jederzeit ein erfrischender Rückzugsort. Ein weiteres Highlight war die liebe und zutrauliche Katze, die sofort unsere Herzen gewann! Die Sicherheit wurde durch einen Security-Mitarbeiter abseits der Einfahrt gewährleistet, was ein gutes Gefühl gab. Allerdings muss ich erwähnen, dass die Vila in die Jahre gekommen ist. Insgesamt war es jedoch ein schöner Aufenthalt mit aufmerksamen Gastgebern. Ich würde die Vila empfehlen, insbesondere für Gäste, die Entspannung und Privatsphäre suchen!

Glorious slice of heaven

This was a wonderful stay! The villa is lovely and very well maintained. Jenny is superb (so responsive!). And Yahuu made outstanding meals and kept the place spotless. My husband remarked that she was the perfect degree of “present”—not intrusive but available if we needed her and respectful of our space. We loved the pool and the game room. And the pool furniture was also very comfortable. A few caveats: you aren’t “near” anything so plan to spend a bit on transportation. They have a house cat (very sweet and friendly). If you have allergies, it could be problematic. (We struggled with the cat dander but our sons lobbied to keep the cat around. Jenny did offer to remove him during our stay.). And while aesthetically very lovely, the stonework in the bathrooms and around the pool is quite slippery.All that said, it was still a fabulous stay at a really lovely place. Definitely recommend!!
