Amazing place--gorgeous location!
Villa Jerome was a great spot for our group of four couples (with a 2-year-old and a nanny), just 40 minutes from Samana El Catey airport, the location was convenient (about a 5-minute walk to the western end of Playa las Ballenas), but secluded enough and in a gated/guarded community. The villa was gorgeous and well-appointed, but Carmen, the maid, was the best, and we hired her to cook several meals for us.

Stunning home
We had a wonderfull time at the home .Didn't even know that Carmin the housekeeper would be there to get our groceries and make breakfast for us. Wonderfull breeze and views. Just realize it is not right on the beach and takes a 10 minute walk which is good exercise.

Phenomenal experience
This stay was absolutely everything that my wife and I could dream of. The house was stunning! The views were breathtaking and we were accommodated with everything we needed during our stay. We also enjoyed the services of the private chef and housekeeper. We only recommend not to use the driving service provided due the fact that the experience with the particular driver we had was not very professional.

Unexpected beauty
The property is beautiful and has everything you could possibly need, including Carmen. Carmen the housekeeper comes daily and is so accommodating and such a good cook. We had her make breakfast and sometimes lunch and loved the authentic Dominican fare. She'll run to the store for you and is super helpful and always smiling. Views are spectacular, super short walk thru property to the beach, but renting a side-by-side or Quad is easy and nearby also. The beaches are the most beautiful we've ever seen and we've been all over. Randy the host was very helpful in arranging rides and even ordered a taxi for us when we had to make a trip to the ER late at night. Just can't say enough about this place - we will be back!

Absolutely Beautiful
The pictures do not do this property justice. The views are absolutely Breathtaking. It is located about a 10min walk from one of the most beautiful beaches in Las Terrenas , Playa Las ballenas. The house itself is gorgeous. We were a family of 12. Rooms were good. We had a minor glitch when the lights went out one evening for a couple of hours leaving us without hot water. Only other thing that may not please some ppl is that you have to pay electricity usage at the end of your stay. We stayed there 5 days and it was $120 US dollars which I thought was a little high but we were 12 and it's a huge house so I don't know. The cook Carmen was amazing. I will definitely keep this property in my return list!

Relax and enjoy the views
The pictures of this place is exactly what this home and outdoor space looks like. The views of the ocean and mountains are beautiful. The bedrooms are all spacious and comfortable. Each bedroom has a bathroom however getting warm or hot water was not guaranteed. The housekeeper, Carmen was a necessity. The kitchen indoors needs some updating but Carmen is a pro and handles the kitchen with ease and served amazing meals with lots of love and laughs. Also recommend chef Daniel for a special dinner and cocktails. Issues that popped up (clogged drain, lost power) was handled with rental agent in a reasonable time. The walk to the beach is down some steep stairs but safe. Having the house set so high up provides the spectacular views. We enjoyed the pools everyday. If you are looking to relax and enjoy time with friends and family this is a perfect space.

Impressionnante villas
Séjour du 21 au 28 janvier 2024, nous avons adoré la Villas Jérôme. Cette propriété est immense et très bien localisé, 7-8 minutes de marches jusqu’à la plage. Carmen nous a cuisiné nos déjeuner et souper alors que nous avons décidé de dîner à la plage dans de petits restos. Elle a également fait nos commissions pour la nourriture et les boissons alcoolisées. Elle ramène la facture et nous lui donnons le montant inscrit, très plaisant comme service. La plage est exceptionnel, la nourriture sur la plage est excellente. La nourriture et les boissons alcoolisées sont au même prix qu’au Québec , aucune économie à faire de ce côté. C’était une semaine mémorable avec 4 enfants entre 4 et 8 ans, nous avons tous apprécié nos vacances.

Lovely trip
Loved everything about the trip and location. The home was great and Carmen made the experience that much better. Everyone made us feel like family and we cannot wait to come back. The beach was a little bit of a walk up some stairs but it was very much manageable. If anyone in your group cannot manage stairs I’d recommend renting atvs. The pools were clean and refreshing. Jacques was also helpful and easily accessible.

Amazing Villa Jerome !!!
Paradise is the correct word that sums up our time here & will be your experience as well at this beautiful home. Here, you cannot go wrong. We were very happy with our entire stay & pleasantly surprised. This home is so unassuming huge. It allows you to be able to get away if you want but also come together comfortably. 1. We will like to THANK the owners for renting out their absolutely wonderful home to us. It is absolutely stunning & we had such an amazing time. 2. 2nd level is the common areas that come with total unobstructed views of the beach & the surrounding areas which are simply OUTSTANDING! Allows for views of the colorful sunrises & sunsets which are beautiful. This level has floor to ceiling pocket doors that allow you to bring the outside inside. It also allows for air cross breezes & is well ventilated. There are powerful & sturdy ceiling fans that you control just how much power of the air flow you want. On this level is the first pool. Early morning dips were wonderful & so refreshing. The kitchen was fully stocked for us so we could cook comfortably if desired. 3. The master suite located on the 3rd level has a fabulous view & a private pool with bar seating. The entire suite has floor to ceiling pocket doors that bring the entire outside inside. Your choice to leave the doors & window open or closed. Choose to turn on the A/C unit and or the ceiling fan. Many days, I had my coffee while watching the beautiful sunrise on the master suite outside landing (which is huge). Waking up to the unobstructed sunrise views or watching the sunset while listening to the birds singing their songs was so relaxing. 4. 3rd level are the rest of the bedrooms which are all large & A/C & individual. Water pressure was great & we all had plenty of hot water whenever we turned on the faucets. 5. Lower level also gave us access to the washer & dryer which was so convenient. The area was large with plenty of space to work. 6. Plenty of occasions, we chose to leisurely walk down to the beach & local restaurants. Met the locals, had so much fun & found great local fare. Seen some of the other local residences but wouldn't trade our rental. Loved being in Las Terrenas which was beautiful & made us feel safe but never had a problem in or out. 7. Entire team available, friendly & always ready assist. Lastly, we had an amazing stay at an amazing home. So relaxing & beautiful. Really can't truly express how great of a time we had.

The house has a great view of the ocean, plenty of space for 12 people.
The checkin was easy. Our flight was a little early but the house was ready for us. Very big bedrooms all with air conditioning. Edouardo was excellent with supporting all of our asks. Carmen was very nice. One blip with the propane for bbq was empty but that was quickly rectified. The walk to the beach is 5 min. Recommend the vehicle you rent has decent height off the ground - many large speed bumps. We will be sure to stay at this home again. Las Terranes has a lot of nice beaches and restaurants. We wish we could have stayed longer.

Great house for our group of 11
Villa Jerome was amazing. The views from this property are spectacular. Perfect picture for a travel magazine. ;-) For months we looked forward to this vacation and it did not disappoint. Our main contact for the property was Edoardo. We requested the chef option and for groceries to be purchased before our arrival. He was very helpful in arranging this and also the transfer from the airport in Santo Domingo. The maid, Carmen, is very friendly and looks out for the guests. It felt like she went way beyond her maid duties to provide us full service. I was usually up before everyone so I got to enjoy conversations with Carmen as she prepared our breakfast. Her meals were delicious. You can also hire her to cook lunch or dinner. The house itself is beautiful. Great space for everyone to hang out together. Having 2 pools was definitely a selling point. I had the master bedroom upstairs with its own pool but we ended up using both pools as a group. Each room has its own bathroom and has access to the same gorgeous view. It’s a short walk to Playa Las Ballenas (7-10min). The main strip of town is probably too far to walk if you want to get there fast, so you may need to take a cab or drive. However, if you take a stroll on the beach and gradually make your way there, it’s not too bad. I could go on and on about Las Terrenas and the surrounding towns but I’ll finish up with a few things about the house. There’s air conditioning(costs extra but very inexpensive). There’s a washer, dryer, and iron. Each room has a hair dryer. There are towels for the pool/beach and of course bath towels. 24 hour security makes you feel safe. The guards are not just at the gate but they also patrol the streets of Bonita Village. It’s like living in a private hotel, with views that you see in commercials for travel. We recommend this house. Be nice to everyone that is there to make your stay enjoyable. They work hard so compensate them well. Ps. Download the “Komida” app. You can order food, liquor, and other products delivered to the house from local restaurants, liquor stores, supermarket and ice cream shops. It was a life saver.

Could have been EXCELLENT but falls short
16 of us stayed a week and the house looks just like the pictures...it's a beautifully designed, sprawling property that has nooks and corners for everyone. If you want to spend time as a group - you can, if you need 'a break' and some quiet time, there are plenty of spaces to do that too. The bedrooms were all great but the top level master bedroom is stunning. With views and breezes that are made for relaxation. On a clear night, you can stars for miles. STUNNING. Now - to the bad part- When we got there (about 30 min early) - the house was a wreck. The housekeeper claimed that the last tenants left late so she wasn't able to get everything done. To be honest I'm not sure how 1-2 people are supposed to turn over that entire house in four hours (assuming check out is as 11). It's just too much to do. So while she did her best our first night the house (including all the bathrooms) etc were not thoroughly clean. Then we lost electricity, which of course is a common occurrence in the DR but then the generator also went down. I had to call property managers and they came right away and claimed this shouldn't have happened, but of course it happened at least 2 more times in the next couple of days. Then we were without hot water for the first three days. It's the tropics and a little cold water shower was refreshing but if EVERY bath is that it gets old - FAST. Plus we had younger children that were not enjoying it all. Then the pool...it was FILTHY. It was clearly not cleaned before we arrived. They finally sent someone by like Wed - but again it was a few days into our stay. Then the kitchen...we had a chef prepare lunch and dinner all week (we cooked our own breakfast). The food was great and the chefs were really nice, however the stove burners were so limited every meal was a 3-hour production. We ended up having lunch at 2-3pm every day and dinner at like 9/9:30!!! For a house that size that allows up to 12-16 people they need to upgrade the kitchen. Also, the house (and guests) would be well-served with a brand new set of pool/beach and bath towels, color-code so they don't get mixed up. Everyone was nice and did their best but as trip organizer I had to be on email all week with the agency managing the issues. NOT RELAXING AT ALL!!!! We made the best of it all and tried to adopt an 'island style' mentality but for that type of house which is beautiful and meant to be 'luxury' it surely fell short on the basics.

LE REVE
Séjour de rêve . Nous étions 3 couples d'amis avec 4 enfants. La villa est superbe avec une vue à couper le souffle, à 2 pas d'une plage paradisiaque. Toutes les pièces sont très spacieuses et très bien décorées. Les 2 piscines sont au top. Propreté irréprochable. Les enfants allaient tout seuls à la plage en toute sécurité et nous nous retrouvions pour déjeuner ensemble au restaurant de la plage à côté de la maison. Le matin on allait au village des pêcheurs pour acheter nos poissons que nous mangions le soir au barbecue sur la terrasse. Tous les jours la masseuse venait à la villa pour des séances de rêve... Nous avons loué des quads qu'on nous a livré à domicile pour faire la route du café. Tout le personnel de maison était aux petits soins pour que notre séjour soit extra. En bref c'est notre grand coup de coeur et nous rêvons tous d'y retourner !

Lovely home and good for large group
We stayed a week in late January at this villa. It was a great villa for a large group as it had a number of separate convening spaces and two good size pools. While our group was only 5 people it would have worked well for double our number. We would definitely return. The bedrooms were all large but the master suite at the top level was extraordinary with its own large relaxing terrace and pool. We did have a problem getting hot water though in the three lower level bedrooms. The housekeeper was helpful although she was only on premises for 3 - 4 hours each day and speaking Spanish was necessary. The views were lovely and while the walk to the beach was steeper or longer than we had expected it was still doable. The Sol y Mar restaurant at the Pl Ballenas beach was also very good and convenient. The main complaint we had was that the property management company was not very responsive. We lost power one day due to a torrential rain storm. The management company was hard to reach and when reached promised to send someone to the home. However, it was clear they didn't follow through until the next day. The electric fuse box was hidden and we probably could have fixed this ourselves if they had been more responsive. I would recommend to the owner that they leave a handy list of where to find things within the house in emergencies like the generator or fuse box. There should be a flashlight on premises as power can be lost frequently. Similarly, it would be nice to have a list of phone number contacts for things like restaurants, tour companies, hiring a chef or masseuse etc. This is common in other homes we have rented. While there is an internet connection it is extremely slow and not very powerful as one cannot stray far from the actual router to get any connection. Despite the concerns expressed above, we would definitely return..............but with flashlight and hoping the owner would upgrade the internet to a more powerful system.
