Beautiful getaway

Property is gorgeous in a beautiful setting. Kids and adults enjoyed. The restaurant on property site is great and food was great. House personnel very nice and attentive. The only major issue was some “critters” found in the house multiple times throughout our stay and a very smelly rug in the main bedroom. Definitely needs to be tossed out. Otherwise a very comfortable accommodation for our entire group.

Amazing house and development

This house is simply beautiful, spacious and very elegant. We had a great time in the private pool in the backyard, as well as the beautiful pools within the development. The restaurant is steps away and serves delicious food that we enjoyed overlooking the ocean. The owner/manager provided excellent instructions and was always available. The staff was also fantastic. 5 starts across the board. I hope to return soon!

Beautiful property, wonderful owner!

Our family group has made memories to last a lifetime in this beautiful vacation property. The home is laid out well so we didn't feel crowded with a group of 12. Lili the maid took care of our every need! The chef cooked amazing Dominican meals for us. Claudia was a wonderful host, so quick to communicate and took the time to answer all of my questions. We very much enjoyed Sea Horse Ranch, the local area and the property.

amazing week at Claudia's villa

We spent a week here - two families (four adults and four little ones all under six). The place was amazing. Plenty of space for us to spread out. Pool was awesome - the kids had a blast playing all week. Beach is a minute away as is the club restaurant which we used many nights - super casual and it worked well for our families. We hope to return next year!!

Spectacular villa!!

This was my second stay at this amazing villa, but it won’t be my last. The property is exquisite- every room is beautiful; the pool is gorgeous, and no detail is missed. The staff is like family. Lily takes the best care of you, and say yes to the chef at least once while you’re there. It’s such a treat to be served in the stunning dining room. This location is unique in that you get the privacy of a villa while still having immediate access to a wonderful restaurant, horseback riding, and other amenities within the ranch. Honestly - spoil yourself. Go.

wonderful, wonderful wonderful vacation (from repeat visitors!)

This is our second year staying in Claudia's villa. We are two couples and four children among us (ages 3-8). The villa is really beautiful and sparkling clean and comfortable. Pool right in the backyard is such a bonus. You can hear the ocean waves from the house and there is a small beach steps away. Restaurant in walking distance is great too. Can't say enough about Lily (the housekeeper) and Johnny (the chef). Loved having a delicious breakfast made by Lily, lounging around in the morning by the pool, spending the day at Cabarete beach, then heading back to the house for afternoon drinks and snacks and dinner at the property restaurant or made by Johnny. A true relaxing tropical vacation. We miss Sea Horse Ranch and Claudia's villa already and can't wait to come back again next year!

When are going back!!

We can not stop talking about our stay with our family and friends. The conversation is when are we going back and can we stay longer than a week. My answer is YES, YES, YES. The ultimate luxury is being able to relax and enjoy your experience. The villa is impressive and grounds lush, expansive, and afford a sense of privacy. The Beach Club was a short walk away. Chef Johnny prepared several restaurant quality dinners. Lilly made everyone feel special and our 5 year old fell in love with her. Breakfast by Lilly was a hit everyday. Claud

Great Getaway

We had 7 adults. On arrival in the afternoon all was well except for the pool. The pool was very dirty and was not running. Also, the smaller bedroom connected to hall bath on main level did not have hot water. The pool was cleaned the next day. Hot water needed a repair. All beds were comfortable, and a/c in all bedrooms was great. The maid and chef were good friendly people. The clubhouse was not open as it had just changed ownership. However, the community pools, beach areas, and grounds were beautiful and enjoyable. We will visit Sea Horse Ranch again!

Elegant, beautiful villa

If you are looking for an elegant and well appointed villa with every bell and whistle - this is the vacation home for you. The location is fantastic - a perfect combination of villa privacy and community benefits, sitting within the Sea Horse community with access to beachfront, a great restaurant, tennis, and horseback riding within a quick walk away. The villa itself is grand, columns, granite, beautiful doorways, fantastic doorways, and a master suite that allows you to overlook it all. The pool will be your daily playground, and if you never leave that spot, you will be perfectly happy for days. Claudia is a fantastic host. She will answer any question and if there's anything needed in the villa while you are there - the team will handle it. Lily is a great housekeeper and chef, and there's a local manager and handyman who will be on site quickly if anything needs fixing. If you want to treat yourself... this villa is a treat.

Overdue Family Vacation

1st trip since the Pandemic started, and our family of 10 was Very Ready to get away! The Villa was extremely private, secure, peaceful, and beautiful. Our Family ranges from 80 - 21month. The house was very spacious and clean. Lilly, and Kenzia were nothing short of spectacular in maintaining the Villa, and started the day with a delicious breakfast of our choice. ( we supplied the food) Although, the 1st morning is provided for. The Beach and ocean are a short five minute walk towards the beach club restaurant. Full service facility, with food choices for everyone. Outstanding pina-colada’s, but be careful, they free pour the 151 proof rum, so if you have more the one you definitely feel it! LoL. Finally dealing with Claudia is effortless and she is very responsive to anything and everything we asked her. In summary, this was the perfect way to ease us back into travelling, due to the private Villa, and no crowds at all.

Paradise Found!

The house was absolutely gorgeous and even better than the pictures. It was beautifully decorated with comfortable beds, fresh linens, and large closets so we could unpack our suitcases for the week. Although we didn’t cook any meals, the kitchen was well stocked. The house is in a gated community with 24/7 security and we always felt safe. The guards and staff are also very friendly and I would highly recommend you brush up on your Spanish! The house is one of the best located in the complex as it is so close to the beach club, community pools, and beach access. Lily, the housekeeper, is a sweetheart and will make your whole family the most amazing breakfasts. She works extremely hard and absolutely loved the children. She will do anything to make your stay perfect. Claudia was great to work with and supplied a lot of information about the area. She stayed in communication with us prior to our trip and answered any questions we had. I recommend you take advantage of the horseback riding in the complex. We did a 1 1/2 hour trail ride and got to ride off the property and saw a lot of the coastline, which was amazing. All in all, this vacation was as close to paradise as you can get. You won’t regret staying at this beautiful villa!

You're own private paradise!

Receiving the detailed information that was provided to us before our stay outlining what to pack, where to go for food, fun, shopping, etc. was a great start to our trip! It not only eliminated the guesswork about knowing what to do and what to expect, it also got us super excited about our trip! Having never been to the Dominican Republic before, it was extremely helpful to have. It also gave me the sense that the owners really wanted to ensure that we had a good time, and all of their advice was spot on. Upon arrival, we were blown away by the beauty of the house and of Sea Horse Ranch in general. We had seen wonderful photos, but it was even more amazing in person. The open-air lifestyle can be enjoyed in the main living area as well as the lovely outdoor verandas, and we enjoyed many hours sitting and conversing with the ceiling fans providing a very pleasant breeze. One morning we even practiced yoga on the large outside veranda overlooking the pool! The house is very spacious, and there is plenty of room to spread out if that is what you desire. Sleeping was comfortable as each room has it's own air conditioner and bathrooms are a plenty, each with their own flair (loved all of the tile choices). It was obvious that great thought and care was put into every detail of this home and it is maintained to the highest standards. We saw landscapers, pool cleaners, etc. doing whatever needed to be done. They were never obtrusive, and they do a fantastic job of keeping everything in perfect condition. It was so nice to be able to relax and spend time in the pool at the house and also be able to walk to the club pool and private beach to get a change of scenery without having to travel. When we did venture out to the public beach, we enjoyed that experience as well. The locals are very friendly and eager to please. As for the food, Lily made us a delicious breakfast every morning and I personally enjoyed the fresh fruit -- both the colorful presentation and the taste! When we ate out, every restaurant we tried was as promised; from La Casita de Papi on the beach amidst the local nightlife and twinkling lights, to Castle Club on the hilltop, with it's breathtaking views. I’d say there is something for everyone on a vacation to Sea Horse Ranch and I can’t wait for my next opportunity to return!

Great Thanksgiving Holiday Away

The villa is beautiful. There were 5 of us in the home, 2 adults, 3 kids. Each kid had their own spacious room & my husband & I shared the upstairs master with outside shower & the balcony overlooking the pool. The guards made us feel safe & protected. Claudia was very helpful in setting up our first night's meal with Johnny as well as giving us tips on things to do in the area (restaurants, etc..). When we arrived, we had a wonderful Chicken Cordon Bleu, garden salad & rice and mixed vegetables. For dessert, flan! So yummy! The next day, we had asked Lily to make us the Dominican Stew. We gave her the dollars to get the ingredients for that, which was also delicious. She also made us Mangu for breakfast one morning with ingredients I supplied to her. We rented a car from OK from Monday to Friday. They delivered the Suzuki SUV to the villa & picked it up that Friday. Cabarete Beach - vendors were relentless with jewelry, massages, tours, braids, fruit, etc... Playa Alicia - waves were HUGE & knocked down my 5'9" 14 year old son. No vendors here to speak of. Playa Sosua - water was calmer, but vendors were again relentless. Horseback riding at Sea Horse - very nice, 1.5 hour ride around the ranch - to the beach, but not on the beach (per my request). Restaurants: Lax Ojo, The Waterfront in Sosua, Morua Mai (for Thanksgiving dinner), were all very good. Grocery Stores: the Playera & Super Pola were both good. Janet's in Cabarete wasn't as user friendly. The pool at the villa was huge, but COLD! There were just 25 straight days of rain, it didn't have a chance to heat up. The resort pools were also cold & in full shade, which is probably nice when it's hot out, but not when it's been raining so much. The biggest disappointment we had was that the restaurant burned down about a week before we arrived in the DR. So, we had to rent a car for groceries, go out every night, or have Johnny cook. There is no other onsite restaurant (think: frozen drink at the pool). On another note - the beach at the resort isn't really big enough (or safe enough because of the rock formations) to sit on or swim in. Pools or traveling to a local beach are the way to go. Our transportation from STI airport was through Cocotours, which was great. All in all, it was very good. Only 4 stars because of the restaurant not being there :(

Débuter l’année en beauté

Nous étions deux familles (4 adultes et 7 enfants (8-8-7-6-4–4-3). Les points positifs ; Nous avons été charmé à notre arrivée par la villa et la belle grande piscine. Lily a été incroyable pour nos enfants et nous tout le séjour. Son fils qui est chef nous a préparé presque tous les soirs d’excellents repas ! Un must. Il y a un parc d’eau à 5 minutes. Nous avons fait du cheval au Ranch, l’activité préférée de tout le monde. La plage de Cabarete est très belle, environ 20 minutes en taxi. Le restaurant sur le bord de l’eau (Beach Club) un gros hit. Points faibles ; Nous avons eu un problème le premier jour avec une toilette qui a débordée, par contre le personnel a beaucoup aidé. La douche et le bain en haut ne sont pas en bon état, mais nous avons pu avoir de l’aide avec la douche pour nous permettre de nous lavé. Comme la villa n’a pas de porte, il y avait énormément de bébites, lesards etc dans la maison. C’était notre premiere expérience dans une villa et nous avons ADORÉ ! Merci à Lily et son fils. Très belle villa n’hésitez pas à y aller. Stéphanie

Worse stay ever!

Once we arrived at the location we were greeted with a hostile welcoming. The host accused us of smuggling people into the complex and having a party which we had no intentions of doing. We were awaken by armed guards at 3 am on our second night there for having my cousin father-in-law with us after a night out. I didn’t think it would be in issue since the booking stated it can hold up to 10 guest. Before we could explain what happened to us to the guest, she demanded we leave the property. There was no warm running water, she just advised to take cold showers and there was a leak in the kitchen which one of my guest almost slipped on. DR is a beautiful country but this guest made my trip horrible.

Very nice property for a family and friends.

A blissful week of back to basics in luxury

We had a wonderful stay at Claudia’s home. The home is large and clean as well as very well appointed for a holiday home. Claudia is incredibly helpful and responsive. Lily, the housekeeper, is such a sweetheart and was exceptional with our children. It is worth noting that the house is open on the lower level, iron doors with no glass and it allows bugs in, although we didn’t have a horrible time with mosquitos. It took a bit of getting used to the fact we couldn’t lock the house at night but there were armed guards all around. By the time we left we felt safe and had made peace with sleeping in a home that we couldn’t secure. It is also a bit nerve wrecking having a toddler with the stairs so I’d say if you are traveling with really little ones do take into account the stairs and security rail upstairs that a small child could slip between/under. Lily was a Godsend helping me watch our daughter. She is incredible with children and such a willing, loving help. The bedrooms were super comfortable and the AC worked wonderfully, a welcome respite from the humidity and heat in the common areas. We slept very well. The pool and garden are beyond gorgeous, perfect for lazy breakfasts and pre dinner Apreos! The common area pools were a hit with our older children and the views from the clubhouse restaurant were stunning. The clubhouse is undergoing an overhaul and could use it in terms of the food quality. Location is second to none and the staff were friendly, kind and welcoming. The little beach isn’t ideal for swimming but perfect for a quick dip. It is picturesque and steps from the villa. Overall we loved our stay and would go back in a heartbeat. The home was wonderful value for money and a perfect pied à terre for kiteboarding in Cabarete.

Perfect in Every Way

We stayed at this Villa for 3 nights over the Memorial Day weekend. This was our first trip to the Dominican Republic and we booked based upon the strong reviews. The Villa is excellent - built with the finest materials and maintained very well. Booking and working with Claudia was a pleasure. She has a thoughtful “Pre-arrival” letter and was helpful with some one-off requests, We landed at 11:15 am to Puerto Plata and we were in the pool by 12:30 pm! The house is everything that is pictured and more. The five bedrooms - we only used four - were large and had their own bathroom. (We envision coming back with a few other adults and would have more than enough room!). The pool was large, warm, and the place we spent much of our vacation. Lily was the true star of our vacation. She cooked a great breakfast, cleaned the villa, washed our clothes (don’t pack too much as she launders clothes daily), and offered other assistance. Most importantly, she was great interacting with the children helping them practice their Spanish. The Seahorse Ranch in general is beautiful. The villa is a 2 minute walk to two beaches that we enjoyed. It’s also equally close to the Beach Club restaurant where we enjoyed lunch, drinks, and dinner during our time there. (Cabarete - a wonderful and safe town - is only 10 minutes away and it was easy to get a driver there.) We’ll return to this villa and left with lasting memories. Thank you Claudia!

I am a designer and developer in Chicago and in the Harbour Country along Lake Michigan, where many Chicagoans have second homes. My family and I have been coming to the Dominican for almost 30 years and have spent a great deal of our leisure time here on the North Coast.
We love staying at the villa. When we built the home we wanted it to be elegant but also fun and relaxing for guests so they can enjoy the same wonderful experience we do. I have since added many updates and improvements to the home, such as tankless hot water heaters, solar energy, etc.

Darum fiel die Entscheidung auf diese Unterkunft

We love the Dominican for it's diversity, it's beautiful beaches, and it's people. There is so much to do there because it is a large island with mountains, desert, jungle, waterfall and river tours. The cities are old and historic, and the museums are unique and interesting. The food is fantastic, and the kite surfing in our area is amazing to watch, or to learn. At the end of a day of exploring it is so nice to return to the tranquil private setting of this home.

Das macht diese Unterkunft einzigartig

REGARDING COVID 19 : We want guests and staff to feel safe. Maids will keep a proper distance from guests and will wear masks. We can also offer a credit if guests prefer not to have staff in the villa, or the maids can clean and prepare food when guests are at the pool or beach to provide social distance.
The villa is located in an extremely well run gated and guarded community. It is beautifully maintained, quiet and very safe, yet 5 minutes from Cabarete and Sosua where there are great restaurants, shopping, more beaches, kite and wind surfing, zip lining, snorkeling, jungle river tours and other excursions.
