Excellent experience

Really enjoyed our experience. The location in the old section of Santo Domingo meant an easy walk to most places. The rooms were comfortable and very clean. The house was well appointed and perfectly suited my extended family, including two 6 year olds. The best part was the housekeeper - Celeste is an absolutely wonderful person. She is hardworking, kind and has a permanent, genuine smile on her face. She went out of her way, taking us around town to help us find the right kind of flowers for a wedding. The only negative was that we had no hot water. Attempts were made to fix the problem but it didn't happen before our departure.

Great location just outside colonial zone

This is a great place to stay for a large group. It’s just outside the colonial zone and minutes from the malecon. The upstairs with a large table and seating area and outside small cold pool and grilling area is a great place to hang out. I’d recommend the property overall, but… Some cons: The house is older and may not have all the conveniences you are used to. The lighting in the house at night is dim. Bathrooms have no vanity lighting. The lower floors don’t get much natural light and feel a bit cramped with little room for suitcases (outside the 2 large rooms). The villa was super responsive to our feedback and fixed a list of 12 issues we had with the property including some maintenance problems and needing blankets on the bed.

Details Missing

We Greatly Appreciated being allowed to enter the home early. Beautiful home with convenient location. But for the price, we would have appreciated hand soap in the bathrooms especially during a pandemic, blankets in the rooms and I recommend adding to your welcome guide directions on getting hot water for showers as all but one room was able to get a hot shower on the first night and were unable to get to watch tv in individual rooms. Internet also only worked in common area. Extra garbage bags would have been nice in the kitchen. We were asked if we wanted the housekeeper service and said yes but no one ever showed up. The night security was a plus in a big city.

Great time in sant Domingo!

We had a great couple of days at Villa Imperial, located in the colonial city. The house is big , comfortable and clean. The communication with owners was excellent and the recommended driver and chef Anthony was amazing! Thanks , will definitely return!

First DR Family Trip

We had the most amazing stay in Dominican Republic thanks to this beautiful luxury Mansion. My family was extremely please with their stay, especially they have their own bedroom with bathroom. They house looks exactly the way it is in the picture, Our house keeper and security guard were very nice, willing to help with anything. Thank you very for the great service and beautiful experience. I will definitely come back again and also always use HomeAway site for future trips.

Beautiful and Big

We had 12 guests (faculty and students) and really enjoyed this home. The owner communicated with us often to make sure we were happy and we felt like we had everything we needed. Having so many rooms w/own bathrooms was really helpful for our group. AC in the individual rooms was nice, but we needed to open room doors to cool the whole house. The location in 'old town' was nice and we were able to walk to several places. A few pros/cons: Pros: Guard at night provided, housekeeper on site (she had her own attached home), tons of space, nice outdoor space, felt safe inside, in-room experience was nice (TVs, ac, bathrooms, wi-fi in most rooms) Cons: Outdoor pictures are nice but make it seem massive. It's nice, but not big. The pool looks larger in the pictures (think of it as an oversized cool jacuzzi tub; still nice, but not a swimming pool), wi-fi was spotty in some rooms, but good in main areas, some cosmetic issues (exposed wires, painting that needs to be updated), tv service was there but not great, didn't work in some rooms. Would we stay here again, yes!

Simply Amazing!

This was an amazing trip! The property was perfect for my birthday party of 8 people and many visitors. The pool was awesome and Celeste maintained the house in incredibly clean condition. She was also an amazing cook! We stopped eating out after one meal from her. Jens responded super quick to any questions. I will rent this place again and again! Highly recommended property! The best and most complete property in the DR! Thank me later.
