    Cocotal is a large, gated resort & residential community with 24-hour gated entrance and security. This is one of the premier locations in Bavaro, Punta Cana, and a favorite destination for families and golfers seeking a tropical retreat.

    The resort offers several amenities, including a 27-hole inland golf course, golf practice facilities, a restaurant & sports bar located at the golf clubhouse, paddle tennis courts, a soccer field, large resort-style swimming pool, kids’ pool, sunloungers and Bali beds, lounge area, kids’ playground, and a mini market. For those looking to explore beyond the resort, Bavaro Beach is conveniently located only a short 5-minute drive from the entrance of Cocotal. There are also plenty of great local restaurants, bars, and shopping opportunities located just outside the resort.

    Punta Cana Airport (PUJ) is located about 17 kilometers or about 10.5 miles from the resort’s entrance, and Santo Domingo Airport (SDQ) is about a 3-hour drive away.

    THE SPACE:

    Villa Palma is a stunning 6-bedroom, 6 1/2 bath, 2-story villa in a contemporary design and a spectacular, resort-style pool with a semi-Olympic lap pool (25 meters / 82 feet long), and a large Jacuzzi. NOTE: The Jacuzzi can be heated, but the pool cannot.

    As you step through the front entrance, you'll be greeted by a stunning view of the swimming pool, which is designed to seamlessly blend with the villa's architecture.

    The spacious living room, with its impressive double-height ceiling, features a comfortable sofa area, a large flat-screen TV, and a bar (beverages not included). Both the living and dining areas offer access to the swimming pool and backyard. From the living room, step onto the terrace, where a second living area awaits, complete with sofas, another TV, and a pool table, promising endless entertainment possibilities.

    On the right side of the villa, you'll find the kitchen, indoor and outdoor dining spaces, an outdoor kitchen with BBQ, and a spacious pool deck with sun beds, and an outdoor shower. The kitchen comes fully equipped with all the essentials for cooking during your stay, AND the villa includes a chef who will expertly prepare all your meals, adding a touch of culinary delight to your vacation (food and beverages are not included).

    Enjoy your meals in the elegant indoor dining room with white dining chairs and a custom-built dining table, or opt for a more relaxed dining experience outside by the pool. The day is best spent relaxing in the sun, cooling off with a refreshing dip in the pool, and indulging in snacks in the poolside lounge. Challenge your friends to a friendly game of billiards and show off your skills at the pool table.

    Phenomenal experience in Punta Cana
    Where can I even begin. The property is amazing. Spacious, comfortable and full of amenities. Beyond the property, however, the hosts and their support staff on premises were well beyond our expectations. In preparation for the trip, the communication and flexibility was exceptional. Once we arrived, we worked with the property’s driver who picked us up and helped us get anywhere we needed to go. We opted to have their in house Chef prepare meals for us and they blew our minds. We had dinner out one night, the food was good but nothing compared to what Chef Raymond prepared for us. We also opted for them to provide drinks and the bar was always stocked, any special requests were discussed and fulfilled in no time. I have received notes from every guest in our party saying this is one of the best trips they’ve ever had and it wouldn’t have been possible without Anders, Karen, David and the Villa Palma team at Group Palmera.

    Wedding getaway
    My husband and I stayed at this villa with 9 of our friends/family for our wedding weekend, and it was absolutely fantastic! The accommodations were perfect for all 11 of us. We all had our own privacy but gathered around the outdoor pool and dining table every night and morning. The staff were phenomenal. Ramon’s cooking was exceptional as was Victor’s hospitality! We would definitely recommend staying here!

    Amazing 50th celebration
    A group of ten of us came here for my husband’s 50th birthday! It was an incredible trip. The house was amazing. Clean, modern, and we loved the outdoor space and privacy! The food was incredible. Jimi is the most amazing chef and cooked us everything we wanted, never leaving us hungry. We couldn’t even choose our favorite dish- it was all wonderful. Kemil, our butler, was incredible catering to our every need. Michi kept the house and our rooms spotless. David helped us get anything we needed and assisted with excursions. We spent a day at the beach club which was amazing. They all worked so hard to make this vacation extra special. We will be back!

    Team team was amazing before, during, & after our stay at the Villa. We didn't have many ask but the team made everything we asked possible. David, Nelson, Rafael did such an amazing job from helping with restaurant reservations, recommendations, excursions, preparing intimate dinners & more. We will defiantly be staying at another property.

    Amazing!!
    I had my birthday trip here with 11 ladies and it was amazing!!! We all had an awesome time. The house was sooo beautiful and we felt super safe in this gated community. The butler E was such a nice and friendly guy. He made us mimosas or margaritas every morning with our breakfast. The chef Santo prepared our delicious meals everyday which were delicious. Just wished it was more Dominican authentic food to choose from. Our maid was great we barely saw her but our rooms would always be clean and ready when we went to sleep. Everyone was so nice and so sweet and so respectful. We loveddd the staff. The bar was fully stocked and we had fun making cocktails. Overall I had the best experience and so did my friends and we were totally booked the same place again.

    Could not have been better. Spectacular vacation!
    The spectacular service we received from the staff Elias (E), Michi, and the awesome chef (Yimi) was one of the highlights of our trip. A great chef and so accommodating of the various needs of the family. By far the best meals of the trip were prepared by Yimi. The food was absolutely perfect and the service was like nothing we'd ever experienced before. We ended up loving Yimi so much that he became like family. Kids called him Uncle J! Lovely guy. Awesome pool, hot tub, outside area...perfect. Everything was first class. We had a blast!
