Las Terrenas has a way of making the days slow right down, and this apartment is built for exactly that. A large covered terrace with a private Jacuzzi sits at the heart of the home, shaded and lush – equally suited to a lazy morning or an alfresco dinner while the garden hums around you. The kitchen opens directly onto the outdoor dining area, making it easy to cook and gather without losing sight of the greenery. La Iglesia Beach and Punta Popy Beach are a two-minute drive away, with Caribbean sand and turquoise water waiting just beyond your door.
