Description Dominican Sundown: Punta Cana

A private pool overlooking the La Cana Golf Course sets a high bar, and the rest of this Punta Cana villa rises to meet it. Days here move between the covered alfresco terrace beside the pool, the wellness suite – sauna, Turkish bath, and hydromassage all under one roof – and a game room and disco area for evenings that take on a life of their own. An in-villa salon means there's rarely a reason to leave. When you do, Playa Bávaro's white sands and the vivid blue waters of Hoyo Azul cenote are both within easy reach.

Home truths:
* You'll want a car – or to arrange a transfer – to explore the wider Punta Cana area, as driving is recommended to get the most out of the island. Your host can help organise a rental vehicle or car service. There is on-site parking for up to eight vehicles.
* Well-behaved pets are welcome to accompany you during your stay for no additional charge.
* While not all bathrooms are photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
* The swimming pool isn't fenced.
* Daily housekeeping and butler service is included in your stay.
