Amazing Villa - A+++
jujubees12000 New York, NY.
Date Submitted: January 26, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
We had an absolutely wonderful time renting Casi Cielo from 12/23/08-12/28/08. We were a party of 13 (12 adults and one infant) and the house was so large that we never felt on top of each other. The villa is incredibly beautiful and we kept on discussing how we would not have changed anything ourselves if we had designed it on our own. Each of us were impressed by the views and loved how we each had some own privacy with our own balconies. We especially appreciated the crib in the room on the first floor and how there was a high chair set up for the infant.
Lina, Francesca and Elio were all extremely professional and we loved their cooking. I don't think I have ever been so pampered in my life. Lina took care of our dietary restrictions and we very much enjoyed the lunches (salads, bean dips, sandwiches), drinks and dinners (fish paella, fish in coconut curry sauce) she prepared for us. We went out one night to Chris and Maddy's and one night to Papillon. Alan and Susan did a remarkable job mapping out the area and making dinner suggestions for us. We spent most of the time just lounging by the pool but did make it to cofresi beach at least once per day (to do some swimming). The beach is extremely quiet but the water and sand were just beautiful. We never had a chance to make it over to Ocean World but would like to do so on our next trip.
Gus took care of us very well by organizing trips (ATV and waterfall tour were amazing) and massages for us and Gabino was extremely helpful, coming to the house on a regular basis to make sure everything was ok.
We flew into Puerto Plata (35 minutes away) and out of Santiago (about 1.5 hours away). We would not recommend renting a car as taxis are readily available
Overall our experience was amazing and we would love to return to your villa at some point in the future. Thank you so very much for sharing your house with us.

Casi Cielo lives up to its name.

We had the distinct privilege of being the first guests to stay at Casi Cielo. The house is absolutely beautiful, and the view from the house is amazing. We’ve rented self-catering villas in Europe and on other islands in the Caribbean, but this is the first time we’ve ever had the luxury of a full time cook and housekeeper. The villa staff, Lina and Elio, treated us like royalty and we very much enjoyed Lina’s cooking. She took extra care to meet our special dietary restrictions so we didn’t have to worry about our food allergies. The beautiful pool with the waterfall was perfect for lazy afternoons, and oh yes, don’t forget that incredible view – Cofresi Beach and Peninsula Esmeralda with its beautiful towering palm trees, and just to the right Mount Isabel de Torres. We were even treated to a fireworks show from the nearby resort one night.
Gabino, the local villa manager, stopped by the villa frequently to check on us, and Gus came by several times to offer local tours and spa services. We opted for the catamaran snorkeling tour and the waterfall tour. Both were great, but be warned that the waterfall tour is for the more athletically inclined (I didn’t make it all up the way to the top of the falls). We took their advice and didn’t rent a car. Taxis will pick you up at the villa and airport transfers are available upon request. We also hired a private guide to drive us to Sosua and Cabarete beaches one day. Each beach has its own character and flavor, but they are all beautiful. Gus also arranged for a wonderful massage at the villa.
It’s a short walk down the hill from the villa to Cofresi Beach, and in September we almost had the whole beach to ourselves. We tried two of the restaurants at Cofresi. We loved the Rum Punch and Langostinos & Steak at Chris & Mady’s. We didn’t like food the Ahora Beach House, but maybe we just hit it on a bad night.
We felt very safe the whole time we were in the D.R. The villa owner was wonderful to work with and happy to answer all our questions. The house will easily accommodate a large family or two or three couples. There are two flat screen TVs, three indoor living areas and furnished balconies off of every room, all with fabulous views. If you are looking for a luxurious place to relax in paradise at a very reasonable price, we highly recommend Casi Cielo. Thank you to Alan and Susan for sharing their fabulous vacation home with us. We hope to return soon.
