Fabulous Cabarete Villa with pool, jacuzzi and oceanview deck on Cabarete Bay!


“My children and I fell in love with Casa Bonita! The house had a great layout and the courtyard with the pool was really nice. The location was perfect!” (From a recent guest)

“There is nothing like having your own private house and pool for your tropical island vacation. There are few private houses on Cabarete Bay and Villa Bonita is one of the nicest! It is a wonderful house with a great vibe -- it is very special! It is open and spacious and beautifully bright. The birds, flowers and trees are plentiful. Perhaps you will be here when the banana trees are ripe and you can get the organic bananas right off the tree! You will feel an incredible sense of peace and freedom here”
(From a recent guest)



Villa Bonita is a beautiful 3 bedroom house for rent situated in the best residential development right on Cabarete Bay! It is a short term or medium term rental-Available weekly or monthly. It has its own private pool, outdoor 6 person jacuzzi (non heated) and a 3 person indoor (heated) jacuzzi. Casa Bonita is in Bahia De Arena, the most desirable gated beachfront community on Cabarete Bay with 24-hour security. The house is perfectly situated in the center of the development, 60 seconds from the beach. It isn't on the perimeter, so it is away from any street noise and has a lot of privacy. There aren't many houses steps away from the real Cabarete Beach on the north shore of the Dominican Republic but Villa Bonita is one of them!
We have a private Roof-Top Deck with an Ocean and Mountain View! It is the perfect setting for a relaxing holiday or an active one. Our beach and trade winds make the perfect launch spot for kite surfing or windsurfing. You can sunbathe on the beach or sit up above under the palm trees overlooking the ocean on our neighborhood's private green space. We are in between Kite Beach and the town of Cabarete! We are also a short ten-minute drive from the surf spot of Encuentro beach. Cabarete is only 20 minutes away from the Puerto Plata International Airport. Our home is in a lovely beachfront community, which has 16 Caribbean-style houses in an extremely picturesque setting. It is a gated community with 24-hour security and a tennis court next door! (small fee). You can hear the ocean waves from the house, which is only steps from the beautiful, golden-sand beach of Cabarete Bay with palm trees for shade if you wish, if not there is plenty of sun!
The village of Cabarete is spread out across the center of a gorgeous, semi-circular beach. We a very short walk away from beautiful restaurants and bars which are scattered along the beach of Cabarete Bay .The distance to Cabarete's main section is close enough for convenience but just the right distance away for enjoying the tranquility that Bahia de Arena offers. You may have heard a lot about the Dominican Republic lately in the New York Times, CNN and many other nationally syndicated publications, it is being touted as the next undiscovered hotspot. Well, I can tell you that it is being discovered but it is still very affordable and not crowded.


The Dominican people are some of the friendliest and happiest people in the world, unlike some destinations, they welcome tourists and go out of their way to ensure a great vacation. Cabarete is also world-famous for being one of the top windsurfing, kitesurfing, surfing, SUPing and now sailing destinations. Any activity that you want to do in the Dominican Republic is possible either right in Cabarete, or a short distance away. Besides the watersports, there is horseback riding right on the beach, canyoning, kayaking, waterfalls and yoga, and a gym!

Casa Bonita is a 3-bedroom, single-dwelling 1800 square ft house and as compared to any other house in Cabarete bay it is considered a luxury house rental; it is beautifully decorated with premium furniture, indoor and outdoor eating areas, large open living room/kitchen concept with 25 foot vaulted ceiling, 55" flat screen smart television in the master bedroom and a 32" television in the living area and a panoramic view of a private tropical garden with a private swimming pool and 6 person jacuzzi(non heated. Private outdoor shower for rinsing after the beach, very large roof top Ocean and Mountain view Deck complete with exercise equipment, lounge chairs and table and chairs. It is a Gated community with 24 hour security. Maximum occupancy 7 people. Master bedroom, King-size bed/ Air-conditioned with a 55" television. Second bedroom, oneFull-size bed/ Air-conditioned.

Great week in Cabarete
This home was amazing and just 2 doors down from the beach! The house looked even better than the pictures. The host was super responsive and Maria the cleaner took great care of us. We would not hesitate to return. One tip if your staying is to bring your own beach chairs if you can. Otherwise this place had everything you need.

Casa Bonita was exactly as described.
Our host was very accommodating, responded quickly and checked in with us. The Villa was exactly as described and very close to the beach and a short walk to grocery store and restaurants. We had a lovely housekeeper who was very discreet and kept the Villa immaculate! Our host left detailed instructions and lots of information on community and town. We enjoyed our stay very much and loved the beach and community. We also felt very safe in this gated community with 24 hour security.

Time of my life!
Thank you for giving me such a wonderful experience during my visit Joe. I wouldn't have this most exciting experience had it not been for your consideration and generosity. The whole purpose of my trip was to get away from my busy life and completely relax and thats exactly what I got. The villa is big and very clean, and theres a swimming pool which I used every day, plus a very short walk to the lovely beach. Joe was very helpful and quick on responding to my messages. I was a solo traveler and felt completely safe on this property because of the 24/7 security the gated community has. Once again, thank you for being such an amazing host! My experience at your place was fantastic and I am looking forward to coming back. Regards, Susan

Great Christmas family vacation
We had a fantastic vacation at Joe’s villa, only few steps from the beach. The location is PERFECT (no other word to describe it). Our son (a surf bum) is begging to come back. Maria, the maid, is very discrete and efficient. (A plus in our opinion). Numerous very good restaurants are just a short walk on the beach. No need to take the car! Moreover, the owners are very nice people who answer within minutes any question you may have. We are very greatful that we had the chance to rent this villa. Lucie and François PS: the one star rating is nonsense.

Cabarete Beach House
We have been coming to Cabarete for over 12 years. We always rent a house in one of the small gated communities. It is a safe and well maintained area, the house we usually stay in wasn't available this time so we tried this listing through VRBO. The house was completely unacceptable it only had one shower that barely had hot water the second bath that was listed had a ridiculous hot tub although there was no way to use it due to extreme low water pressure. Also the house did not have a decent light to read by at night, the outside pool area had no place to lounge, the outside back lighting stayed on for only five minutes before it automatically shut off. There was no place to hang a wet bathing suit or towel, essential for a beach listing. Also the house includes a housekeeper who comes daily ,she is very nice but it is very unnerving to have her around everyday mopping and wiping furniture when your trying to relax. Part of renting a house is to have a sense of privacy . The owner is very responsible, good at communication, he answer your response timely, but he is completely inflexible about extended check out . We asked for a 30 minute extension understanding he had new guests arriving and were told that that would not be possible. In conclusion, I would say ,great location, but the house needs TLC and a better understanding of what guest needs are on a beach vacation.

Perfect family vacation house
Spacious, well-maintained, well-equipped, convenient to beach, in a patrolled gated community. Everything worked, and our host checked in with us by email a couple times. Maybe a mile to town by car, less by beach. We enjoyed all the restaurants, although they were crowded on Super Bowl weekend. Daily maid service was nice and Maria cooked 3 delightful Dominican meals for us. I highly recommend this place!

Perfect oasis
My children and I fell in love with Casa Bonita! The house had a great layout and the courtyard with the pool was really nice. The location was perfect. Close to the center of town but not too close. We were never kept awake by noise. We are a really active family and loved that the kite surfing was so close and amazing and that the surf beach was only a 10 minute motorcycle ride away. The house was kept so clean by Maria and one night she cooked us a fantastic authentic Dominican dinner. We had a ball!! We will be back!
