It was an all around perfect experience. From the. Host to the ocean views, we could not have asked for anything more. The villa was decorated beautifully and

Words cannot describe how wonderful Casa Orquidea is, you have to experience it! The accommodations easily feel like a second home. The view and community are wonderful, secure, and very friendly. The support staff including Carlos the property manager went above and beyond to ensure our stay went smoothly, and even helped us find new places to explore and eat. It was very tough to leave such a heaven on earth. Would highly recommend for long and short stays.

We spent a week at this property and had a wonderful time. It is a beautiful place to stay when visiting Las Terranes. The house has gorgeous views and everything you need for a comfortable stay. Once we learned how to navigate the area, it is pretty crazy driving through Las Terranes (we were there at a busy time) you can head to the surrounding beaches, Playa Bonita and Playa Colon, which are breathtaking. The home is walking distance to Las Ballenas Beach, which is so pretty. We paddle boarded and snorkeled there. Unfortunately, we missed seeing the humpback whales as the whale watching is January 15th - March 15th, we were so close, but no. The best meal we had was at a French restaurant in one of the shopping centers, sorry I do not remember the name but also had a good meal at La Terrasse. If you plan on snorkeling, I would bring equipment with you on your trip, as you can pull over at many pretty spots to snorkel. We surfed at Playa Bonita where we rented boards and our teenage daughters took some surf lessons.There is a service called Komida which is basically an Uber Eats. The agency who helps with the check in and anything you need when you are visiting is excellent. They took care of any problems immediately, we only had a few, hot water heater needed to be lit and an issue working the tv. I definitely recommend this home when visiting this beautiful place.

We spent 2 weeks in the DR with 5 nights in this gorgeous home in the hills overlooking the beach. I LOVED the house so much and can definitely see myself going back there even though I prefer to explore more of the world than return to vacation destinations already visited. But, the house was so beautifully appointed and comfortable that I find myself thinking about it often now that I'm home. If you are looking for indoor/outdoor living, this is the spot. And the Master bedroom views are to die for. Beds are comfy. BUT - please note that the owner does not allow guests to use the laundry facilities. Housekeeping comes and will wash your clothing off premises, so there is back-up. Super minor issue but you should be aware of it if you plan on doing all your laundry on your own. 2 words...Stay here...you'll love it!
