A Beautiful Home with Excellent Staff

Review Submitted: March 7, 2008 Date of Stay: February 2008
My wife, four teenagers and I enjyed one of the best vacations we have ever had. Casa de Campo is an adult Disney Land: it is perfectly maintained and operated. Golf tennis, swimming and more: never a dull moment.

The focal point of our vacation was this OUTSTANDING house. It is mint condition, inside and out. The furnishings are of the highest quality and the decorating is very pleasing to the eye. The staff (cook and butler) were amazing. We wanted to take them home. No question we will be repeat guests here.

This home is close to everything at CDC (with golf cart).

Our group of six spent a week in Nov. 2008 at this lovely villa. We enjoyed relaxing in the beautiful surroundings, and being pampered by the full time staff. There is plenty to do in Casa de Campo if one chooses to be busy. We played golf, lounged on the beach and went shooting, in addition to eating Eddie's great cooking and being pool/lounge potatoes! A great vacation spot.

Len:



We would like to thank you for the opportunity to spend a week of total relaxation at your fabulous home in Casa De Campo. Your home is well designed and ideal for 4 or 5 couples. Your staff of Francisco and Eddie is an ideal complement to the villa. They provide outstanding service and help to make the week even more enjoyable. While we were we in Casa De Campo a little before the season started, the weather was perfect. The beach is an outstanding amenity for the week or relaxation.. It is close either for walking or using the golf carts. The marina and Alta Chevon were quiet however enjoyable. It is obvious that you put a lot of effort into up-dating the house during your recent renovation. You did a great job. It is very comfortable and clearly first class.



Thanks again.

We had an excellent time in Casa De Campo. Your home is absolutely beautiful. The amenities were first class. Francisco and Eudosia were terrific. Between your home and the activities at CDC, we had a simply wonderful time.

I hope that you benefit with more renters given the expense that you clearly put into the house.

We would like to return someday. Needless to say, I will recommend to my friends to contact you if they are heading to the DR.

All the best.

PS Patricia is great as well—she had everything arranged upon our arrival and took care of returning the vehicles when we left. It couldn’t have been easier!

Just a quick e-mail to say that we really enjoyed our stay in your home. The house is very nice and very well maintained, and the staff very friendly. I do hope we can be in touch in case I have another visit to Casa de Campo.

I just wanted to take a minute to let you know that we truly enjoyed your lovely home at Casa de Campo. The pictures didn't do it justice, as your home is absolutely breathtaking! I think we all had the same reaction when we walked through the doors......AAAHHHHH!

Your staff is wonderful, and we all felt like Eddie and Franciso were family by the end of the week. Patricia was very helpful as well, and we appreciate all of her efforts on our behalf.

Thanks again for allowing us into your home, and we do hope that we can make another visit in the future.

Best regards,
Kim

Our visit to Casa De Campo will be one to
remember thanks to Len and his staff. His home is
beautiful beyond any picture. The back yard is
enchanted and a place we all loved to retreat to at
the end of the day for a swim. The Staff is the most
amazing people anyone could ever have. I brought
down friends and family to celebrate Chris' 50th.
We were greeted with smiles, assistance and drinks
upon arrival. The guests were amazed at how
beautiful this home is. The food was better than a
restaurant.
Golf was a dream come true, La Casita restaurant
was my favorite. Beach is so close to the house and
beautiful!! Altos De Chavron is a must. We will
return and have many offers from friends to join us
after seeing our pictures and hearing our story.
This is a one of a kind home in a one of a kind
place. Thanks so much for allowing us to spend the
time of our life in this paradise!!
Lorraine and Chris

My family and I just spent a week in D.R. and I can not tell you how beautifull the home was. The accomadations are superb. I'm a professional chef and I'm very picky. We had great breakfast served to us each morning that was only surpassed by the lunch. You need to stay home for the best food on the resort.

See you next year!!

All I can say is WOW!. Often times the description and pictures do not match reality. In this case reality EXCEEDED the pictures.

I just came back from a week at Los Lagos 72 and there is absolutely nothing negative I can say about my stay or the house. It is newly renovated and the workmanship and furnishings are top notch. Outside you will find paradise, a large pool, a hot tub and two large covered seating areas. If you plan on entertaining or simply like being in the outdoors, this is the place for you. Bring your Ipod and you can hear your favorite music inside and out on the excellent audio system. Inside, you will find brand new furnishings, flat-screen TVs, DVD players, large air-conditioned bedrooms, and exquisite bathrooms…believe me when I say that villa photographs well, but it is so much better in person.

I went down for a wedding and over the days that I was there just about every member of the wedding party came by and asked for a guided tour the villa and all left jealous. The beach is within a 10 min walk (or 5 minute cart ride), but be warned - the villa is so nice you may never want to leave. When you do leave, be sure to bring your golf clubs as the Teeth and DyeFore are challenging, but fair courses….my mornings were filled with golf and my afternoons were filled with hours in the pool, time on the beach and time just enjoying the beautiful surroundings at Casa de Campo.

I saved the best for last. The staff, Francisco (landscaping, handyman, butler) and Eddie (cook, maid) are beyond compare. Their service was excellent, but much more enjoyable was simply their friendly demeanor and conversation...their presence was a great blessing.

I will wrap this up by saying that on the night before my originally scheduled departure, I simply couldn’t do it…I contacted the property owner and asked to extend my stay!!!

Review Submitted: May 27, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
My family has stayed here 2 years now (pre and post renovation). Location is fantastic and the property itself is a private retreat. Both times we only made it to the beach (which is only a few mins away by golf cart) a few times since we end up hanging out by the pool and the outdoor patio area.
Suggestions for a comfortable stay include a mosquito repellent for the evening, aqua socks or similar since the ocean does may have coral and similar underfoot, and CDs/MP3 as they have a great outdoor stereo system.
Point of interest... we traveled with a 2 yo and a 1 yo and found the house to be no problem for small kids. Although we did bring a play pen to make sure the youngest wouldn't crawl into the pool). The house also has a collection of kids pool/beach toys in the laundry room that we didn't discover until we were leaving.
Eddie the cook was WONDERFUL. Can't stress that point enough. Everyone gained at least 5 lbs!!!
