Traumvilla in Las Galeras
Traumhafte Villa mit unvergleichlicher Lage. Blick vom Pool in die Bucht von RIncon ist unvergesslich. 15min zu Fuß in den Ort. 2min über die Rinderwiese zum Strand oder 10min zu Fuß zum Playita. Tolle Villa, absolut sicher, sauber, gut ausgestattet. Hans ist ein perfekter GAstgeber, immer gut erreichbar, meldet sich bei Fragen sofort zurück, Batterien des Safe waren leer, hat keine 30 Minuten gedauert und das Problem war gelöst. Immer wieder gerne - ein Ort absoluter Ruhe Vielen Dank Hans und Grüße an dein Team

Great Property Manager
Hans was a joy to work with. We booked our property 11 months in advance and Hans was instrumental is making sure our trip went as smoothly as possible. Hans arraigned transport to and from the airport for us, found an 8-person rental vehicle that could accommodate our family, did our initial grocery shopping trip so we could enjoy ourselves as soon as we arrived, and finally assisted in booking our excursions. Hans even recommended Monte Azul and personally met us at the restaurant to drive us up to the restaurant because our rental vehicle was not capable of driving the road. Hans no longer manages Villa La Salamandre but if I ever travel to Las Galeras again I would seek out one of his properties.

The best!
My family and I just spent a week at the house. It is breathtaking and wonderfully situated near town but not right in it. Hans was very helpful connecting us with local guides and was at the ready with any question. Josefina takes care of the house daily cooked for us three nights which was great! Danelo is the groundskeeper and showed us a secret path to a secluded beach. Heaven. All three were so kind and really made this trip unforgettable. We will be returning for sure.

About the host

Hosted by Hans De Schryver

Host profile image
I am not the owner of this property, but have been the property manager and exclusive rental agent for the past years.
Over the past 20 years I have lived in several places on several continents with different cultures, so I'm well-traveled and fluent in several languages. I enjoy sharing my travel experiences and listening to those of others. I enjoy showing people the beauty of Las Galeras, the remote town in the Dominican Republic where I currently live, and I take great pleasure in knowing I have helped someone experience a wonderful Caribbean vacation.
I am a proud father of a lovely daughter.
To keep physically active, I am very active with property renovations and construction.

Why they chose this property

I was asked by a friend of the property owner whether I would be interested in adding this spectacular home to my portfolio. A few days later I toured the house and grounds. It was clear that this property was a perfect match for my portfolio of quality Caribbean homes with a unique location and a special touch. Places like this are very hard to find, they're hidden gems. When the property was then sold to one of my favorite guests, the new owner and I quickly decided I was to continue administrating and renting the house. I'm glad that the new owner also wants to share it with other people as a vacation home.

What makes this property unique

LOCATION. This spectacular house is located in one of the most beautiful spots in the Dominican Republic, overlooking Rincon Bay and surrounded by lush vegetation.
While it's an oasis of peace in a rural area, it's packed with comfort to guarantee an enjoyable stay.
