Elegant Luxury Golf Villa 12 mins from beach w/ pool, jacuzzi (NOT heated) & BBQ

This 6 bedroom, 6.5 bath villa is the largest in the exclusive golf community of Guavaberry with a house of nearly 7,870 square feet (731.16 meters squared) and a lot size of 32,334 square feet(3,003.94 meters squared)! The property features a pool, Jacuzzi (Jacuzzi NOT heated), outdoor custom BBQ and Gazebo and is situated on the 9th hole of Gary Player signature golf course Guavaberry.

This villa has been used as a movie set in Morir Soñando and in multiple music videos!
This villa is astounding and American Director Josh Crook agrees! That's why he choose this villa as the set for Morir Soñando, his movie production starring Dominican-American actor Hemky Madera from HBO’S ‘Weeds”. Madera has acted alongside Johnny Depp, Dustin Hoffman, Bill Murray, Harvey Kietel & Andy Garcia, just to name a few.
Browse my photos to see pictures from the set.

Whatever your needs, we've got you covered in English, Spanish and French.

Many events (weddings, birthday parties, corporate events) have been held at the villa. The owner approves these events on a one by one basis. Please feel free to inquire with us about your event! Most events require an additional event fee.

By default, the jacuzzi will be unheated. Due to heating costs, it is an additional $50 charge to heat the jacuzzi. It will stay heated approximately 2 days from one heating.

Because Guavaberry is a secure, gated community, we will need the names of your rental group members so we can provide a guest list to security at the front gate.

Guavaberry Golf & Country Club is an upscale community with 24 hour controlled gated access located in the beach resort town of Juan Dolio, Dominican Republic which is 45 minutes outside of Santo Domingo and only 30 minutes from the Las Americas International Airport.

Guavaberry Golf Couse
The 7,156 yard, par 72 Gary Player signature course features gently sloping hillsides, rock formations, gently undulating greens, indigenous flora, wide fairways, several sets of tees, and huge waste bunkers - All providing a challenging, yet fair environment for the ultimate golf enthusiast.
Guavaberry’s convenient location, natural beauty, and challenging features make it one of Gary Player’s most stunning achievements.

Enjoy all the private amenities this villa has to offer, the golf & the beach while being centrally located to branch out and explore the island.

Location Points of Interest include:
- 30 mins from Las Americas Int'l Airport (Santo Domingo)
- 10 mins from Guavaberry Private Beach Club
- 15 mins from Los Delfines Water & Entertainment Park
- 20 mins from beaches of resort town Boca Chica
- 40 mins to Los Tres Ojos ('The Three Eyes') are a series of freshwater lagoons amid 50-foot tall limestone caves. These caves were famous as settings for both the Tarzan movies and Jurassic Park.
- 45 mins to Santo Domingo and the historic Zona Colonial ('Colonial Zone') where you can get an unrivaled glimpse into the first European City of the New World. Founded in 1498 by none other than Christopher Colombus himself, the capital city boasts some of the oldest buildings in the world including the oldest fortress in the world. Simply stated, Zona Colonial should not be missed.
- 1 hr to Altos de Chavón, the biggest attraction in La Romana, Dominican Republic. It is a re-creation of a medieval European village conceived from the imagination of Roberto Copa, a former Paramount Pictures set designer, and Charles Bluhdorn. I have been there and it is captivating!
- There are even more sightseeing opportunities, such as the Taino Caves, Isla Catalina (Catalina Island), Isla Sanoa (Sanoa Island) and the list goes on and on.

There is covered parking for 4 cars adjacent to the house.

WiFi is available. Please keep in mind you are in a beach town on a Caribbean Island so bandwidth and speed expectations should be kept in perspective. For example, it’s great for checking emails and perusing social media, but not so great for streaming videos.

As a result of several unauthorized commercial video recordings occurring at the villa, we have installed 4 exterior video cameras for the purpose of avoiding this situation in the future. One camera is pointed at the back door (not the pool area), one of the exterior west side, one is the exterior east side and one is to monitor the front door. Authorized music videos, movies, etc are welcome. We only ask that you please seek the owner's approval first.

A 2 day minimum stay is required for rental.

Great Place and Great Host!
We recently stayed at this beautiful villa to celebrate my aunt's birthday, and it was a great experience! From the moment we arrived, Nikki, our host, was incredibly attentive, professional, and also had a great sense of humor that made us feel right at home. She answered all of our questions promptly, ensuring we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The villa itself was stylish and thoughtfully equipped with everything we could ask for. One of the highlights for our family was the easy access to the nearby golf course, which made for perfect early morning walks and jogs. The peaceful surroundings really set the tone for a relaxing getaway. Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better place to celebrate such a special occasion.

Wedding/Vacation
BEAUTIFUL VILLA!!! Our daughter and son-in-law chose his hometown of Los Llanos for their wedding location. Never heard of the place and did not know where to start the planning process. We decided to book a place to stay first. We came across this villa and contacted the host Nikki. After discussing the villa and sharing our wedding dilemma, Nikki provided detailed information about the area and nearby venues. Nikki suggested the Guavaberry Golf Clubhouse, she also contacted the management team on our behalf. Olived Gonzalez at Guavaberry scheduled a video tour of the venue. After the video tour, we scheduled an in-person tour with Olived. He was very patient during the booking process and recommended 3 event planners. Jord Flores y Eventos had the best reviews. We scheduled an appointment with Jord Flores and met with Yuliza Monsanto. Yuliza offered to plan the entire wedding and was too good to be true; therefore, we asked Nikki if she was familiar with the company. Nikki researched the company and assured us it was a legit business. We hired Yuliza Monsanto to plan the wedding. She EXCEEDED our expectation; the wedding was beautiful, I cried. The online pictures do not capture the inside and outside beauty of the villa. The villa was clean, well-equipped, and huge. I cannot count the number of emails Nikki answered. The groom’s family rented a nearby villa that was smelly and had horrible customer service. Nikki offered to assist with the other villa

Lo peor cómo lugar para ir a descansar, pésimo servicio, no recomiendo éste lugar.
Realmente no recomiendo éste lugar, me gustó la ubicación y la casa es my bonita pero el servicio es pésimo, un día completo sin agua, durmiendo con mucho calor porque los breaker se disparaban a cada 15 minutos y los aires se apagaban, el anfitrión no estaba presente para cualquier pregunta o necesidad, en una ocasión dijo que si queriamos que el fuera a la villa teníamos que pagarle porque ese era su día libre, fue lo peor como servicio así que no la recomiendo!.

A WOW experience 🥰
Everything about this experience was phenomenal, from the beginning with Nikki helping me sort out the rental details & answering my silly questions at 4am!!! Down to the one and only Salomon who really made our time in the villa incredibly smooth, fun & quite the experience. Salomon directed us whenever we needed help with anything even as simple as ice or where to go to find our Covid test! He was patient and always willing to help. I must say If you’re ever planning a trip to the Dominican Republic I suggest staying in this villa that is in the center of anywhere you’d like to travel and far enough to enjoy some private time with friends & family! Anything you need this villa has it, jacuzzi & pool .. BBQ section & even a wonderful cleaning service! I can’t rave enough thank you for money well spent! This was an amazing trip one of the first places I’d return to. Thank you Nikki & Salomon

Nikki and her team are amazing, gracious, and service oriented. As usual, it was a sad day when it came time to leave; the bright side, we will be back in 2020!!

Wonderful house, owners, and staff
We stayed at this property with a group of 14 high school boys on a baseball-service trip to the DR and it was fantastic. After spending time in the middle of San Pedro, hours on a hot field, and after working hard at an orphanage, our boys loved coming home to the space and luxury of the Villa. Nikki operates the listing and was very available when there was an issue, but so were other people like William, the local guy who manages check-in and check-out, and Solomon the groundskeeper. If you can get to know Solomon, make sure to do it! We saw other members of the staff/ownership throughout the week, not in a way that felt overbearing, but rather as a presence that was ready to help us with anything we needed. The house was large and spacious. When anything wasn't operative (we had an issue one night with ceiling fans downstairs for example) they were on it instantly the next day. You want guidance in starting the fantastic, giant outdoor charcoal grill? Just ask. The house is private and luxurious with no neighbors in visible sight. They have a large speaker by the pool just asking you to play music. Naturally our high school boys loved this. We didn't play any golf, but the course has to be one of the most beautiful courses on the island. I wished I wasn't leading a group of high school boys and had time to golf! We stayed in Metro Country Club last year, and although also nice, the Guavaberry house was in better condition and more private than the one we stayed in over there. We hope that Nikki and her team are still renting this house out next year and willing to accommodate us! Thanks again! Mark

Family Vaca 2018
Nice property and it comes with a bonus dog :) We loved having Cafe as part of our family for the week. Nikki was great to work with to get the property confirmed and she was super responsive to all our questions, both before and during the trip. Great staff - from meeting William on arrival and Solomon who is the house caretaker on-site to Jessica (sorry if I am getting her name wrong) who cleans. Very kind and friendly. Like any vacation, there were a couple minor glitches - but response to all issues were addressed quickly. The house has plenty of space to spread out and plenty of options for where to enjoy the day - by the pool was our favorite. Being in a gated, golf course community made us feed safe and secure during our stay. Thanks Nikki for taking care of us!

Best Golf ManCation - Awesome Time Had By All
Since 2004, myself and a group of golfers have been traveling to the Caribbean to golf in January. Our 2016 Golf ManCation was one for the ages. Absolutely, spectacular home! Ideal location on the 9th fairway of Guavaberry Golf & Country Club. With the gazebo Presidente Refrigerator stocked with Presidente Lights and water, we were able to reload with beverages and the cook had sandwiches for us to pick and take with us. What can I say about Nikki? Remarkable!! From beginning to end she was an absolute pleasure to interact with, very easy to deal with & very responsive. Awesome property!!
