Villa Shangri-La

Fall in love all over again or rekindle old friendships at Villa Ataraxia. Designed by acclaimed local architect Sergio Escarfullery, this Dominican Republic vacation rental has plenty of romantic, old-world charm—plus a dash of tropical flair. It also boasts an oceanfront setting on nearly a half-acre lot at the exclusive Sea Horse Ranch, offering access to luxury resort amenities and spectacular views that make the perfect backdrop to an unforgettable holiday. Guests of Villa Ataraxia are welcome at the shared pools, restaurants, tennis club and equestrian center at Sea Horse Ranch, as well as the newly renovated beach club. The villa itself has incredible private outdoor living areas, from a veranda with sitting and dining areas to a sunny terrace around the pool with loungers and sunbeds. Practice your swing on the putting green, follow the steps toward the ocean to a postcard-worthy vantage point or sip cocktails under the palapa as you wait for the gas barbecue to heat up. The villa’s name, Ataraxia, translates to calm or tranquility, and the home’s interiors live up to it with a thoroughly charming and serene ambience. Starting in the dramatic foyer, whose beamed ceilings soar 35 feet overhead, the property’s craftsmanship is evident in the Mexican terracotta tile floors and mahogany woodwork. Entertain friends and family beneath a massive wrought-iron chandelier in the living room, around the formal dining table or in a more casual fashion at the granite-topped breakfast bar in the fully equipped kitchen. This European-inspired villa puts guests close to some of the best beaches and wind-sport conditions in the Caribbean. Villa Ataraxia is only a short drive from both the Sea Horse Ranch Beach Club and local favorites Laguna Beach and Sosua Beach. The nearby town of Cabarete is a great place to shop and dine, but is renowned for its constant breezes and an ideal spot to try out windsurfing or kiteboarding. Copyright © Luxury Retreats.

Villa Diana

Stay at one of the most prestigious addresses in the Caribbean at Villa Diana. This sophisticated Dominican Republic vacation rental is part of Sea Horse Ranch, a resort that feels undiscovered yet delivers a luxury experience, with an ambience that’s elegant yet relaxed. Not only does the villa boast exquisite interiors and four suite-style bedrooms, it offers guests access to five-star amenities and an unparalleled setting. Your holiday at Villa Diana includes access to the shared pools, restaurants, equestrian center and tennis club at Sea Horse Ranch, as well as the newly renovated beach club after June 2017. Soak in the tropical sun in private from the villa’s pool and a terrace dotted with loungers, or keep cool in the shaded al-fresco sitting and dining areas. As the sun sets, linger outside around the gas barbecue or step into the air-conditioned media room for the evening. Sea Horse Ranch was designed by famed architects Edward Durell Stone & Associates—the same firm that planned iconic buildings such as Radio City Music Hall—to be an idyllic retreat. With its tiled roof and stately columns, Villa Diana fits neatly into this vision. Inside, it’s just as stunning, with a central, open-plan great room whose ceilings soar two stories above living and dining areas. The fully equipped kitchen shares the same high ceilings and has a convenient breakfast bar, and a mezzanine lounge and media room are more intimate gathering spaces for family and friends. Whether you’re on a family trip, honeymoon, or thrill-seeking getaway, the Puerto Plata area on the island’s north coast is a great—and mostly undiscovered—destination. Villa Diana puts you close to beaches, shopping and dining in town, and the area’s famed windsport hubs. It’s a 2-minute walk from the villa to the beach, a 1-minute drive to the beach club at Sea Horse Ranch and a 10-minute drive to two other beaches. Drive into the town of Cabarete to watch the kitesurfers in action or take a lesson yourself, or the town of Sosua for more restaurants, shops and nightlife. Copyright © Luxury Retreats.
