Designer Beach Villa · Pool & Rooftop Hot Tub
This home's owners spent years sourcing furniture and wallcoverings from Italy for their six-bedroom villa, 100 meters (2 minute walk) from the beach in Las Terrenas on the Samaná Peninsula. French architect Florian Treton designed the house and Daniel Nunes of São Paulo designed the tropical garden. Sleeps 12, with a pool, a rooftop jacuzzi and a gym. Part of the Boutique collection of design-led homes.
About the Home
The house covers 650 square meters across two floors, with a 139-square-meter living, kitchen and dining area anchoring the ground level. The tropical garden mingles with the space through floor-to-ceiling glass, and the covered terrace carries the living room outside to the illuminated pool and a sunken fire pit. Much of the furniture and lighting came through Bredaquaranta in Milan, whose lines include Cassina, B&B Italia, Poltrona Frau, Baxter, Flos and Living Divani. Four of the six bedrooms are papered in Affreschi & Affreschi, an Apulian atelier whose handcrafted plaster wallcoverings blend 27 raw materials, among them Carrara marble and Roman travertine. Locally crafted wooden furniture and woven lamps sit alongside the Italian pieces. Three bedrooms sit on each floor, all with European king beds and en suite bathrooms. The two master suites, 48 square meters on the ground floor and 43 on the first, are the largest rooms in the house, and each has a bathtub and a dressing area. The ground-floor master also has a queen sofa bed. The four guest rooms, two per floor, run from 22 to 30 square meters. Two guest WCs, one on the ground floor and one on the rooftop, serve the common areas. The kitchen is Italian-sourced and fully equipped, with a dishwasher, wine cooler, coffeemaker and a full set of cookware and tableware. Meals move between three settings: the indoor table, the terrace beside the pool, and the rooftop, where a barbecue plancha has its own dining area. The main pool is finished in Sukabami volcanic stone tiles imported from Indonesia, and the rooftop jacuzzi is a separate pool. The house also has a fully equipped gym, a washer and a dryer. All six bedrooms are air-conditioned with ceiling fans and room-darkening shades.

The Neighborhood
Las Terrenas is a beach town shaped by decades of European settlement, which shows in the French bakeries, Italian kitchens and Dominican seafood spots sharing the same streets. Mornings run through café terraces and the fish stalls at Pueblo de los Pescadores, the open-air waterfront cluster that remains the town's social center. Playa Bonita, one of the peninsula's longer beaches, is a short drive from the villa. Playa Cosón extends further west, palm-lined and quiet, with a handful of beachfront restaurants and little development behind it. Both face the Atlantic. The host's picks for eating out are Le Tre Caravelle, Dolce Vita, Mosquito Beach Club, Porto by Mosquito, Luis and Casa Cosón. El Limón Waterfall is roughly 45 minutes away by car, reached on foot or horseback. Los Haitises National Park, known for its mangrove channels and limestone formations, is best reached by boat from the town of Samaná, about 1 hour by car to the east. Between January and March, humpback whales migrate into the Bay of Samaná, and whale-watching boats leave from the town dock.
Guest Access
Guests have the whole villa to themselves: the interiors, the pool, the rooftop jacuzzi, the gym, the outdoor kitchen and the terraces, along with 2,000 square meters of tropical garden within grounds of 3,500 square meters. The gym has age restrictions. Parking is available for up to four vehicles. Night security staffs the entrance daily from 7:00 PM to 7:00 AM, and exterior cameras cover the garden, driveway and gate. Access is step-free throughout, and the entrance path is lit at night.
