THE SPACE:

Blending European elegance with Caribbean flair, the contemporary design of this villa creates a delightful indoor-outdoor living experience. Stepping through the expansive front door, you're greeted with a warm and inviting tropical ambiance.
La Palapa is centered around a stunning garden, complete with palm trees and white stone pathways, creating a serene and Zen-like atmosphere. The villa's open design flows seamlessly from the front entrance to the spacious terrace, pool area, and garden. The terrace and garden provide an expansive area ideal for lounging, dining, relaxing, and entertaining.
Tucked neatly on one side of the villa, you’ll find an outdoor basketball half-court with one hoop. The backyard offers a great green oasis with a lawn, trees, and palm trees. If you’re traveling with children, this is a great and comfortable place for them to play.
The living room is a beautiful space with floor-to-ceiling windows, comfortable sofas, chairs, a TV, assorted books, air-conditioning, and ceiling fan. The dining room is located right next to the kitchen and features a large dining table where you can enjoy your meals with a view of the pool and backyard.

The modern kitchen with an island is fully equipped with everything you need to prepare delicious meals during your vacation. You can also hire a professional chef if you don’t want to cook during your vacation ($).

About the host
Hosted by Anders Bogebjerg

My name is Anders Bogebjerg, and I am the property manager of Villa La Palapa. I am a professional (PGA) golf player and former European Junior Champion from Denmark. Before moving to Punta Cana, I was playing golf professionally in Scandinavia and Europe at Challenge Tour level. From 2000, I began working in the traveling industry every winter season for Danish traveling agencies as a golf pro, representative and destination manager. In 2002, my travels took me to the Dominican Republic, where I settled down and bought Palmera Travel together with my wife, Rawnie Hansen. As the years went by, our company grew and expanded into Group Palmera. Today, we specialize in offering luxury vacation rental properties and customizing vacation packages for travelers from around the world.
