About this property
We travel not to escape but to explore
This magnificent penthouse apartment has the 'wow" factor you have been looking for and is a perfect starting point for getting to know the area. Our past guests love our development of just 40 units for its friendly staff and owners and since we are just outside of the main town, you will enjoy a more quiet location. Many of our owners are Canadians and Americans so most of the communication here is in English. With 24-hour security and generator backup, an onsite administrator, maintenance staff, and concierge service, it would be hard to beat the level of safety, support, and security that we are able to offer.
Featuring 25-foot soaring vaulted ceilings, oversized windows, and sliding doors to let in lots of light and complemented by a spacious open concept layout. Featuring a white leather couch and love chair, 3 LCD TVs (2 smart TVs), LED lighting throughout, high-efficiency inverter AC units in the living room and both bedrooms, granite countertops, and a king-size bed in each bedroom with a super comfortable Sealy Posturepedic pillow-top mattress. The kitchen has a gas stove, a Panasonic inverter microwave, and a Samsung fridge. Also included is your own stackable washer/dryer in the apartment, as well as a reverse osmosis drinking water system in the kitchen for your convenience and good health. Each bedroom has a computer workstation and free fiber-optic WiFi with a base upload rate of 7 Mbps upgradable to100 Mbps. The outdoor patio has 2 reclining loungers and a round teak dining table with 4 chairs.
On the common grounds, you will find a gorgeous pool with about a dozen lounge chairs and umbrellas as well as under the shade of some coconut trees on a sand dune overlooking the ocean. Next to the pool is Martini's Restaurant, which serves excellent American/Caribbean food and even delivers to your room. Of course, there is a happy hour every evening from 4-6 pm. In front of the development is a sandy beach perfect for strolling on the beach for miles or a dip into the warm ocean. Best of all, we are located just 25 minutes away from the Puerto Plata International Airport.
Please note that due to popular demand by our retirees and work from home guests who prefer a bit of extra space, we quote a more affordable 'base pricing' for 2 people only. For additional guests, we charge $18/person/night for up to a total of 4 people staying in the apartment.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Jens Knof
I love meeting people from around the world with a passion for the ocean, beaches and photography. I traveled the world racing Windsurfers in the '80-'90s, and also coached the Ontario and Canadian teams leading up to the '96 Olympics. In 1991 I graduated from the University of Waterloo with a B.Sc. degree in Kinesiology, followed by becoming a Doctor of Chiropractics. I married my University sweetheart over 29 years ago and now have 3 grown children, who like their parents love to travel. They all attended the International School in Sosua after moving to the Dominican Republic in 2006 on a dare to my wife. We now split our time between Canada and the DR, enjoying the best that both places have to offer. It would be our pleasure to host you and share some of our experiences with you.
Why they chose this property
After traveling around the world my wife and I decided that Cabarete in the Dominican Republic was the ideal place for us to own a property. The weather is perfect here, and we like the lush vegetation and beautiful beaches. Except for a few holiday weekends, the area is uncrowded, which compared to Thailand and some places in Europe we have traveled to recently, is a huge plus. The locals are friendly and wonderful and it is one of the most affordable places in the Caribbean.
What makes this property unique
The Cabarete East Oceanfront Community is unique in that it is located just outside of the town center, which can get very noisy at night. The location and setting are stunningly beautiful, with miles of beaches to explore. From collecting amber to humpback whale watching in February or lying poolside with a tropical drink, this is a great place to relax and recharge your batteries. For more adrenaline-packed activities, you can kiteboard, surf, and mountain bike nearby trails right from our home.
