About this property
Luxury 5BR Villa. Steps to Top Beach. 5 min walk to 20+Restaurants. Chef Option
✦ WELCOME TO BAVARO ✦
If you've heard of "Punta Cana," what you've actually heard of is BAVARO — the beach town home to Secrets, Now Larimar, Paradisus, Barceló, 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.
✦ THE VILLA — 3,000 SQ FT, SLEEPS 10 ✦
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 — a rooftop platform perched above the palm trees with views of the Caribbean Sea on one side and the tropical mountains on the other.
✦ 5 ENSUITE BEDROOMS ACROSS TWO FLOORS ✦
★ 3 bedrooms on the main level, each with a private marble ensuite bath ★ 2 suites upstairs — one with a Juliet balcony ★ Each bedroom: smart TV, ceiling fan, A/C, and large closets with original Caribbean Mahogany built-ins ★ Three of the king beds split into singles on request
✦ BATHROOMS: 5 MARBLE ENSUITE + 1 POWDER ROOM ✦
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 — not fancy, but useful.
✦ WHAT SETS THIS VILLA APART IN BAVARO ✦
★ 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. ★ DEDICATED 100 MBPS WIFI on a private Orbi system — yours alone, never shared with the building. Ideal for remote work. ★ FULL AIR CONDITIONING in every room ★ DISHWASHER — uncommon in Punta Cana rentals ★ FULL-SIZE WASHER AND DRYER on the second floor ★ ORIGINAL CARIBBEAN MAHOGANY throughout — wardrobes, doors, trim. This wood is now protected and cannot be replicated in modern construction. Heirloom craftsmanship.
✦ THREE OUTDOOR DECKS ✦
★ MAIN DECK (14 × 28 ft): U-shaped sofa, dining table for 8, ceiling fans, ocean breeze. Coffee in the morning, drinks at dusk. ★ ROOFTOP DECK: Custom mahogany bar under a Cana thatched roof, lounge chairs, card table, gas grill, and the laundry center in a glass closet. ★ 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.
✦ THE KITCHEN ✦
Renovated with white shaker cabinets, granite countertops, breakfast bar, full appliance suite, and the rare-in-Bavaro dishwasher.
★ CHEF RAFAEL — daily meals or one special dinner. He's a local favorite. ★ DRIVER SERVICE — airport transfers (one trip or multiple, however your group arrives), private excursions, anywhere you need to go. ★ DAILY MAID SERVICE — 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.
✦ THE NEIGHBORHOOD ✦
★ BEACH: Bavaro Beach, ranked #7 in the world by TripAdvisor. Private community access with lounge chairs and palapas. ★ RESTAURANTS WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE: Soles, Pelican, Huracán, Tocs, Onno's, Captain Cook, Beach Party, Jellyfish, Langosta Roja, and 10+ more ★ PLAZA EL DORADO AND PLAZA TURQUESA (5 min walk): grocery stores, bakery, gym, pharmacy, ATM ★ WEDDING RESORTS within 15 min walk: Now Larimar, Secrets, Paradisus Bavaro, Melia Tropical, Barceló Bavaro ★ PUNTA CANA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT: 20–25 minutes by car

Beautiful, clean house with all the comforts you can imagine. One of the few houses with air-conditioning with remotes in each room to set different temperature for each room if you want. Large washer and dryer, and automatic dishwasher in the kitchen. Fast wifi. Cable TV that you can also stream to. Grill on the beautiful roof deck. All the beds were extremely comfortable and there was plenty of closet space in each room . Steps to pool. About 5 minute easy walk to beach with lots of umbrellas and chairs and food and drinks service. Near restaurants. The host is always very quick to respond and has a guide with everything you might need to know about the neighborhood including restaurant recommendations, etc.. The manager is also great and very responsive, can arrange for tours airport, pick up, etc. Lovely stay!
Pat was a very responsive host and replied immediately to any of our queries. The house was within walking distance to the beach and the pool was almost directly below the house...lovely
This is a great place to stay in Punta Cana, The Villa is safe and clean and on a great property. The beach is close by and everything else is a short Uber away.
The property manager is responsive if you need anything and fortunately for us we did not have any issues with the house.
I would highly recommend this property to anyone who would like to stay
Beautiful property...worth the cost. Minor adjustments will make it an overall 'Five Star' Rental. Solidly built, large rooms with bath for each...provides total privacy for all.
We would rent all over again!
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!
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 didn’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 full… 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 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!!!
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 we’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!
We just returned from 6 days at Villa Poseidon in Punta Cana. The house is just as in the pictures- roomy & nicely furnished. The house is in the Los Corales community & it's really pretty. The split a/c units make the temps ( & electric bill) easy to manage. The beds are SUPER comfy- we wanted to take them home..lol. Kitchen well equipped. The pool was really nice & while it is a community pool, had no more than 2 other people using it- sometimes just us. Wifi as good as home. The beach is a 2 min walk & with beach chairs & shade pulpas provided but my only disappointment- while not crowded- it's very active, party boats & off-shore excursions loading in afternoon- for many this may be a plus. I preferred the quiet mornings. But this seemed to be the norm all along the Punta Cana beaches- I walked for an hour in each direction. The response, pre-trip tips & on-site communications with host, Pat & property manager Gregory were OUTSTANDING! I recommend reaching out to them with any question you have while there- don't hesitate-they're super responsive & helpful. Other tips: Go to Jumbo on way in for big order- but there's also a small supermarket Ciccolella a few blocks away- not as big or stocked as Jumbo & a it's a bit more expensive- but has everything you may find you need & nearby. Captain Cook seaside restaurant langostinos & fish tacos at Villa Blanca Beach club ( at beach access from house) were my favs. This is a great house & location for a big family get together,
The house is very big and comfortable, and it has everything you might need for your stay. There is plenty of restaurants and places to have ice cream, coffee or anything you need. We use uber to go everywhere since it is a great option and really cheap.

Great location
Overall experience was good. Didn't love the giant construction site directly in front of the property that we were not aware of.
Perfect location close to everything need for our stay host was great with communication from the moment we book until we checked out she went above and beyond to ensure the safety of my family that was traveling from different airport. And ensure we had everything we needed to be comfortable for our stay we where a group of 12 and it didn’t feel crowded house is very spacious the top deck was my favorite to sit and enjoy the evening breeze and a cocktail we will definitely recommend this property and will revisit.
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.

Spacious and comfortable home
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Eugenie was a fabulous host with spot-on recommendations. The house was comfortably equipped with the necessities to make meals in the house.
There were 9 of us staying here: 6 adults and 3 kids (ages 5, 7, 9). We all had enough space and spent our days at the beach and nights outside on the covered terrace.
Thank you!
The owner was very good at responding to any and all questions or complications. 5 ladies enjoying a birthday celebration. The driver Cesar was absolutely the best ever. He was available to us every time we called. And great with helping us with trips throughout the vacation.

Out of the cold!
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.

Great Villa! Beautiful Location m
We loved the villa and Los Corales. We had a wonderful vacation. Thank you Pat for your detailed information. Eugenie is a gem! We had a traditional Dominican meal prepared for us that was fabulous. Having the beach chairs and palapa was such a treat. Feeling very spoiled. After a week at Los Corales we spent 3 nights at Hard Rock Resort. We may have enjoyed enjoyed our week at the villa more.
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 we’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. Thanks Pat for opening your lovely home to us!

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.
Pat is an amazing host. Of all the rental properties I’ve ever stayed in, I’ve never had someone so quick and thorough with their responses. 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. We felt safe the entire time and the gated community was beautiful. I could not recommend this house enough.
Thank you Pat :)
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. Great place for groups or a couple families.
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.
