Caribbean Luxury Villa - House of Mermaids ✅Ocean View ✅Private Pool ✅Full Staff

WELCOME to our beautiful Caribbean “piece of paradise”, Villa de las Sirenas (House of the Mermaids). There are breath-taking ocean views, your own private pool and a beautifully landscaped yard. The property is completely fenced to ensure your privacy.

This is a beautifully custom-built villa with 5 bedrooms that will comfortably sleep 12 people and 5 full baths (one outside by the pool for your convenience). It is within walking distance of the ocean front beach, a convenience store, several restaurants and bars, Ocean World (a mini sea world that children will love) and a full-service marina.

The rental fee includes a professional, attentive and amazing full-time staff to make your vacation perfect. This includes a Chef, housekeeper and gardener and pool attendant. The staff is trustworthy, kind, fun and you will love them. Imagine having all of your meals prepared, your beds made daily, all of your personal needs attended to, your excursions designed and customized for you and your family and/or guests, and your transportation to and from the airport arranged. No worries, no hassle!!

Enjoy the private pool while you lounge in the sun surrounded by luscious, manicured, tropical garden areas. If you prefer, take a 2-minute walk to Cofresi beach and play in the warm, rolling waves.

Tania, our talented villa chef, will prepare and cook just about anything your heart desires, including delicious Dominican cuisine. We have a culinary guide that will help you determine what food and beverage you will need to purchase. Your food will be fresh and properly washed for consumption. To purchase your food you can send Tania with money to the grocery store to buy food of your choosing, including liquor, beer and wine, or you can accompany her to the store to purchase your food and beverage. A trip to the gocery store with Tania is always a fun exprience.

In addition to Tania, included in our staff is an assistant housekeeper, a pool/gardener/errand person, an excursion and event planner and a security guard. Our property and staff manager, Gabino, (who speaks very good English) will arrange taxis or transportation. Gus (not part of our staff) will drop by to offer you an array of excursions that will be customized for you and your party. Gus can also arrange in-house, private, massages or other spa treatments.

Recommended and closest airport is POP (Puerto Plata). The closest alternative is STI (Santiago). We can arrange transportation to and from either airport. Transportation from STI is a more expensive, but no rental car is needed. The cost of taxi and transportation is not included in the rental fee.

In advance of your arrival, several emails will be sent with detailed information regarding our villa, staff, excursions, house rules, transportation and your culinary options. This will help answer any questions and make your vacation in paradise a dream come true.

You will always have the option to contact us personally to help ensure your vacation will be a complete success.

Villa de las Sirenes is your dream vacation destination.

Honeymoon Celebration
The home & staff were all AMAZING. We weren’t sure at first how to feel about having other people with us all day but we loved them!They were all so attentive, kind, & fun with our personalities! Hopefully they felt the same about us:)The home was fabulous!!Every detail met with care. On the “con” side of the stay, the beach area left much to be desired. The picture on the listing was not at all what we saw. Being on our honeymoon with friends we were all extremely disappointed. We got there when bus loads of people were partying, and the next morning the trash was littered EVERYWHERE, beach/ocean included. Between the seaweed (God’s nature) & the trash everywhere, we never got in the water or wanted to be near it even when it seemed to be sort of cleaned a couple days after.There are some small resorts and hut shops on the beach which also didn’t appear in the beach picture. Our 1 beach day included a $60 round trip taxi ride to Sosua ~ 45 mins away & included lots of local heckling. So our “beach vacay” was mostly spent enjoying the house/pool & excursions which were awesome!! Do research on excursions before booking! Thank you Gus for everything! I hate to say ANYTHING negative about our trip but I want people to know this is a LOCAL area (we wanted). There is a mini market & several restaurants (GREAT) w/ super nice locals!! We mostly ate Tania’s delish food cooked at the house! (Don Limon’s bar was so fun also). Hearts from us —> staff:) I cried when leaving!

Be prepared to be wowed and enjoy the view, the people and culture of DR. We can’t wait to return!

Best choice!! Stay here!!
The Villa is beyond beautiful. The staff exceeded any expectations we had. Tania and Yanny are fantastic cooks, Narciso was there for anything we needed, Gus hooked us up with fantastic excursions, and Gabino made sure our every need was taken care of from airport transport, extra snacks, and any concerns at the Villa. Owners Paul and Nancy were quick to respond to all questions, and they offer so much general information about the DR to help ease any travel nerves. They were so kind and thorough. The beach is a short easy walk (and if you don’t want to walk, you can rent the golf cart at the Villa) It is beautiful with great waves for the kiddos, shops, eateries, rentals, etc. I cannot recommend this villa enough. Do yourself a favor and book this villa for your stay!

The House of Mermaids was very accommodating for our party of 13. The staff was wonderful and easy to communicate with. The view was spectacular. Gabino had the house ready for our arrival with our choice of beverages and snacks. Gus helped us with horseback riding, ATVs, a city tour of Puerto Plata, snorkling and jumping off waterfalls. Tania was an excellent chef. Yani and Narciso kept the house, grounds and pool very clean. Chelo made us fell safe at night watching the property. The property was an excellent choice for privacy and located within short walks to shops and restaurants. We would recommend this house to anyone visiting the D.R.

Family trip to celebrate a big birthday!
Our family came to stay for a week to celebrate my husband’s 60th birthday. Our group absolutely had a fantastic time. The house was very clean, the food was prepared as we requested and the team were a joy. We did a few excursions (snorkeling and buggies) and could walk to Ocean World and some local restaurants very easily. Some things that made our stay even better: we bought great microfiber towels (Amazon) that folded up very small, dried very quickly and easily repelled sand. Everyone in our party was also gifted a “personal bidet” (happypo brand, also from Amazon) which made the “no paper in the toilet” restriction very easy to adhere to. Thank you for a wonderful visit!

Fantastic!
Our family group of 6 had an excellent experience. The combination of great weather and fantastic support staff made our stay very relaxing and enjoyable. The location and home was exactly as pictured - very beautiful. Every evening we had a nice breeze from the ocean and were able to hang out and enjoy the nice patio. Having Tonia and staff prepare our meals made our vacation super easy. Our adult kids walked down to the beach and went out for cocktails - no issues at all and very authentic Dominican experience. Paul and Nancy were super helpful and responsive to all our questions. We will return to DR and enjoy again in the future.
