Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Perched on a clifftop above the bay in Samana province, this three-level villa puts the Caribbean at your doorstep in the most literal sense – the overwater deck terrace stretches out above the water, with space for twelve around the dining table as the tide moves beneath you. Floor-to-ceiling glass keeps the ocean present even indoors, while the clifftop pool terrace offers a different angle on the same turquoise view. A full staff – butler, chef, housekeeper, and a round-the-clock concierge – means the day shapes itself around you, whether that's snorkelling off Playa Morón or arriving by helicopter from El Catey airport, just five-minutes away.
