Our group of 9 spent 5 nights in this beautiful villa and were treated like we were family. The accommodations are luxurious, the villa air conditioned, the pool well maintained and the staff professional and welcoming! While we were expecting to enter a villa that is first class, our expectations were exceeded. The bedrooms were spacious, the common area has many seating areas to relax, read and converse and the yard is spectacular.
Casa de Campo is 7,000 acres of golf, horseback riding, shooting, bike riding, fishing, sunbathing and more. Los Lagos #57 (Casa Alegre) is perfectly situated to be a short golf cart ride to most any activity. Playa Minitas, the local beach, is less than 3 minutes away and the Marina, Hotel, and other activities are no more than 10 minutes by golf cart. We took the opportunity to play golf at the Teeth of the Dog course the day before the Sugar Tournament began and the course was in great shape.
Maritze, the chef of the house, is an amazing cook. Her use of herbs and spices provides for delicately flavored dishes and we were treated to everything from beef, chicken and fish for our main dishes to flan, cheesecake and bunuelos for dessert; all accompanied by salads and local fruit.
Anna, the head of the staff, took care of our every need and helped arrange for taxis or picnic lunches to take on a sailing excursion. She made sure our meals were prepared to eat at the time we requested and was even able to accommodate my wife's gluten-free diet!
Mr. Gordon made sure our transactions went smoothly from beginning to end and checked in on us daily with his staff to make sure our needs were being taken care of. We felt that we were always in good hands. This was our group's first trip to the Dominican Republic, but after staying at Casa Alegre, we look forward to another opportunity to come down and stay here again. If you are planning a trip to Casa de Campo and are looking for a villa, I would recommend you contact Mr. Bob Gordon and secure the Casa Alegre for your stay.
I couldn't recommend this villa and staff highly enough for a stay in Casa de Campo, DR. We would definitely return to Casa Alegre for anther stay.
