Great property; Not the best location
The house came as advertised - very comfortable and clean and the concierge was helpful. Two of us played the Cocotal golf course and really enjoyed it. We didn't love the location, as we didn't want to just stay around the house. Don't rent a golf cart! You can really only use them within the gated community - not safe/legal to run them along the main road. We were told because it was high season, that we could not return the two golf carts we had rented, a costly mistake! There is not much in the community other than a small corner store and coffee shop near the front gates. The concierge subsequently assisted us with renting an SUV for our group, which was much more practical. Even then, accessing the beach was challenging, given how the all inclusive resorts take up the majority of the coast in that area. There are very few public access points and finding parking is challenging. We had success at Bibijagua market (parked on a side street for free), which is located down the road from the gas station near the entry to the Barcelo Bavaro. Otherwise, Jellyfish Restaurant was excellent and you can park in their lot if you are eating there or using their beach club area. Having the maid was somewhat awkward. She kept things tidy but odd to have her around, as she has little to do most of the time - and tended to often be on speaker phone with friends (a bit noisy). She cooked one meal for us, but took some effort given we don't speak Spanish.

Best place ever!!!
We will always stay at this home when we come back. Jenny was amazing, showed up to give us a tour, was very understanding. House is beautiful on here but in person was breathtaking. Delicia (maid) was Amazing, from keeping the house clean, set up the dinner/breakfast table, assisting us with everything we needed to cooking great meals. Everything she cooked was great. Loved her personality, always smiling and just being great.. great hospitality. You must stay here. Don’t look no further if this house is available around your dates. Very spacious bedrooms all four of them. Everyone has their own bathroom, the pool was cleaned everyday. Thank you for making our couples trip successful.

Pictures do this property no Justice. Between the very timely and effective communication from Jenny - to the amazing breakfast and lunch provided by Dil. They truly helped make my birthday a special trip. The home is breathtaking. It’s relatively close to just about everything - and the concierge experience that works with this VRBO will help you through all you need.

Beautiful house, lovely stay overall
The house itself is gorgeous and nicer than the pictures portray. We traveled over Christmas and New Years with our two daughters, ages 2 and 4. The house was very comfortable and child-friendly. I was very impressed with the concierge service that comes with the house. The concierge was attentive and responsive to our every need, including pre-stocking the house with groceries before we arrived, suggesting restaurants and making reservations, arranging for our transportation, and suggesting and booking activities. They even arranged for an absolutely incredible nanny who came each day to play with and care for our daughters - so my husband and I truly were able to relax! The house itself is well-cared for and the location is easy and close to many activities. We enjoyed facing the golf course, going on walks on the path, and finding the ducks and other birds that live in the ponds right behind the house. Our biggest disappointment with the house is that the pool is not heated and it does not receive direct sunlight, so it was quite cold during our entire stay. We came with the hope and expectation that our daughters would spend quite a bit of time swimming, but we had to change our plans since the pool was too cold for any of us to use. Sadly, we only used it once the entire stay and other times we went to the club house located about a 10 minute walk away or went to the beach club that the concierge arranged for us. Another suggestion I would make to the property owner is to improve the wi-fi in the home. It is very spotty throughout the house and it made working while away difficult, depending on what room of the house you were using. Finally, one thing to be aware of with this house is that they provide you with a small electricity allowance and anything extra will be deducted from your deposit. We were very conscious of our electricity usage - turning off the A/C when we left the room, using the dryer only three or four times during our ten day visit, and using the oven only a handful of times - and we had a bill of $180 to pay at the end of our visit. Overall, this house is great, but be aware of a few improvements the owner could make to change this stay to being truly exceptional.

Amazing Birthday Celebration at an Amazing House!!
This was a surprise 50th birthday celebration for my wife and I couldn't have chosen a better property! The house was spotless and I will agree with others that have stayed at this property, pictures can adequately capture the beauty and essence of this house! The house is on the Cocotal golf course and the backyard view is breathtaking! What truly made this house and our stay special was the service we received from Jenny (Host) and Dilcia (Dil)! Jenny was absolutely amazing even before I got to the property. As there was a lot of planning and coordination required to pull off the surprise, I was in constant contact with Jenny prior to my arrival. Jenny responded almost immediately to the vast majority of my emails and patiently answered all the questions I threw at her. Once we arrived, Jenny warmly greeted us and provided all the necessary details about the house and made sure we were all very comfortable with all areas of the house.. Jenny is an amazing host!! Now, let me get to Dilcia who takes care of the house and on request, prepares meals. I told Dilcia that I wanted her to prepare several meals for us (breakfast, lunch, dinner) including catering the party for my wife. As Jenny suggested, I gave Dil money to buy the necessary groceries and she took over from there. There was a total of 8 of us staying in the house and Dil surprised us each meal with her amazing culinary skills!! I cannot adequately describe how effortlessly she concocted incredible meals with amazing presentation!! Dil became a part of the family during our stay and we were all so sad when we had to leave.. Thank you Jenny/Dil and rest assured, we will be back!!

Fantastic beautiful home on a gorgeous golf course. The outdoor living room was really exotic. And Delicia is helpful, yet out of your way. We looked at other homes in the area both online as well as while we were on vacation. We were very happy with our choice. There is so much to say on so many fronts. Best thing we can say is we were very happy and would return to this same house.

PHENOMENAL!!!
I can't stop raving about this property to my family, friends, and co-workers, concerning my wonderful experience. I am busy showing off photos of the property, and have peeked their interest in traveling to Punta Cana to stay at this Villa. Jenny was amazing, professional, and personable. I have traveled to many places worldwide, but my experience here was phenomenal. As an avid golfer, I was blown away on how great the course was managed and it was a major plus of this villa residing on the 5th hole. Aside from the property, Dilcia was always present and waited on me as if I were a king. Coffee in the morning, food at my request, and clean towels and sheets. She was amazing!! Many of my friends were concerned about security. I was proud to report that I felt extremely safe. The Villa is enclosed in a gated community and there were security persons at the gates, at the courses, and constantly walking the property. Concierge service by Gio, was always awaiting my beckoning call for whatever I could fathom needing. Without a doubt, I will be revisiting soon and frequently! Dr. Freddie Wakefield - Atlanta, GA

La experiencia en Punta Cana fue maravillosa gracias a los servicios de transporte y la hermosa villa donde nos quedamos. Cuando llegamos había alguien esperándonos en el aeropuerto para transportarnos a la Villa Ibiza. A mí esposo y a mi nos encantó la villa!!! Pudimos celebrar nuestro matrimonio en ese hermoso lugar. Todo es muy lindo una vista hermosa, muy limpio y tranquilo. Nos sentimos bien atendidos y pudimos disfrutar de la paz y la tranquilidad que buscábamos, Delcia nos sorprendió con platillos típicos de la región y una sazón maravillosa, y Jenny fue muy atenta y servicial siempre nos respondió de inmediato cuando la necesitamos...

We loved the villa. The outdoor living area by the pool was divine. The openness of the floor plan and its large windows to the outdoors was beautiful. The home was impeccably clean throughout our stay. We loved the amazing daily meals so much. Our friends stayed at all inclusive and got sick and we were incredibly healthy! We were amazed what Delcia could cook with our groceries! It was really nice to have “our concierge” tour group arrange personal tours and trainers for us. We had a perfectly beautiful and relaxing time at the lovely villa and hope to be back! Thanks Jenny!

Beautiful villa!
We had an amazing stay at Villa Ibiza Cana for a girls trip getaway! There were 6 of us and the accommodations were perfect and more than enough. Jenny, the manager, was so helpful and accommodating before our trip and during our stay. And Dilcia, the housekeeper, was so very sweet and and amazing cook! We had a dinner and breakfast in, cooked by Dilcia, and it was such a treat! She speaks very limited English and we spoke no Spanish but it really wasn't an issue. The pool and the views were great and the location is convenient to the beach and restaurants but you do need to drive. We used the concierge service recommended by Jenny for all our transportation and were very happy with them Overall, highly recommend!

PERFECTION
I really wasn't sure what to expect out of this home but needless to say it exceeded all of my expectations. The home is truly beautiful and while the photos and video of it are accurate, it doesn't give it much justice. You have to see this home in person to get the true feel of everything. The home has the perfect set up for a party of 8. There are three rooms upstairs and a room downstairs. Two kings, one queen couch sleeper, and two twin beds. Theres an outdoor bed by the pool also with a queen bed for lounging, sleeping by the pool, whatever you want to use it for. All in all theres a lot of space here including lounge areas and chairs by the pool. The house has an open concept as you can see by the pictures but with the perfect weather in January when we visited, t his was so idea. The pool /lounging area by the pool is an area we spent a lot of time at in the mornings and at night when returning home. We also took the time to go on a walk/run around the golf course in the backyard. I can't think of anything there that we needed, honestly. Anything we needed we asked for and we got so it worked out. There is an allotment of electricity included in your stay. For 8 people we went over but only $22 worth and we only used our AC while we were home and most nights we didn't use it at all because the cool breeze in the night is pretty pleasant. The housekeeper, Dilcia, is AN AMAZING COOK. If you're going to stay here, brush up on a few Spanish terms such as thank you, stating your name, goo morning, goodnight. She speaks a little english but being guests in the country, the least we can do is learn a couple of phrases. All of my interactions with Jenny and her friend Jennifer were informative and I always received quick responses. They are very helpful and have plenty of suggestions on things to do and places to eat. I would highly recommended having at least breakfast prepared at the home. There is a wonderful spread that can be prepared and we enjoyed pancakes, bacon, eggs, and fresh fruit each morning. We used the service for grocery pick up so we never had to go to the store on our own. There are plenty of towels and linens available as well so don't worry about bringing your own things. We enjoyed this trip so much that we have made comments about turning since everything was so perfect. Do not hesitate to rent this home, you will not regret it!

The Villa is absolutely stunning
I came to DR to celebrate my birthday in October. We rented the villa for 10 days and I can not tell you how wonderful Jenny was from start to finish, so much so, that we’re planning our next trip back to stay at this villa next year. Jenny will answer any WhatsApp messages anytime of the day and is always at the other end of the phone to help if needed. The grounds have 24 hours security so if you’re travelling with females only you’ll feel safe staying here. The villa also comes with a wonderful house keeper called Dilsia. She cooked for us most nights and have to say, we ate some of the best food cooked by her. We took full advantage of the bbq and often had late night feats cooked by Dilsia, guys this lady should be on Master Chef! The rooms are spacious and the pool is amazing too!! Also, not to forget, a concierge team are also available and will recommend or take you where ever wish to go. Thank you Jenny for such a wonderful stay and service, we look forward to returning next year.

GORGEOUS VILLA - AMAZING PROPERTY - EXCEEDED EXPECTATIONS!
I came to the Ibiza Cana villa in early June with a group of 7 other girls for my sister's bachelorette party. Leading up to our arrival, I was in constant contact with Jenny, the property manager, and Claudia, our personal concierge, who took care of every minor detail for me. Claudia booked all of our activities including nightclubs, a private catamaran and of course, private transportation. Jenny was extremely helpful in preparing our menu and she even went grocery shopping for us to buy all of our alcohol, snacks, and menu ingredients. All we had to do was pay her for everything upon arrival. We were greeted at the villa by Jenny, Dilcia and Claudia. Dilcia is the housekeeper who was beyond amazing during our stay. She and her sister cooked for us all weekend (for an additional charge but was still very cheap compared to going out to eat). She also kept our rooms and the entire villa spotless. She was super sweet and did anything to make sure we were relaxed and enjoying our stay! We prepared an extravagant menu and she did an amazing job meeting our expectations! I was told the villa had a pump to blow up our pool floats, but unfortunately it didn't work. All I had to do was text Jenny and she came right over with a new pump and even blew up our floats for us! She was literally one text away to help us with anything we needed. The pictures of the villa do not do it justice! It is right out of a magazine! It was in pristine condition and the view from the pool out to the lake is stunning! Even though the back is all open, it is very private and you feel very safe! Our concierge, Claudia, was in contact with me through Whats app during our entire stay. Before each activity, she would send me our confirmation voucher and let us know what time our transportation would be arriving. The next day, she would message me to see how we liked it and to make sure we had a good time. I was even able to text her while we were at the nightclub to change the time for our transportation to come, if we wanted it earlier or later than originally scheduled. Jenny came to check us out on the last day and we ended up paying for the extra electricity used, which we were fully aware of before coming. It was only $80, which isn't bad considering we used the AC when we were getting ready to go out at night and while we were sleeping. This is literally the best vacation I have ever been on and I would definitely come back to this villa!!!

Our stay
Me and a group of buddies stayed at this lovely home. The home was located on a golf resort which was very quiet during our stay. We were able to talk to locals and feel as one with the community . Jenny and concierge people were very helpful with our stay. They were able to tell us what clubs and beaches to go to during our stay and also provided transportation!!!! They also stayed in contact with us during the whole stay to make sure we were ok and always had something to do. The housekeeper Dilcia was on point with everything. She made some very good Dominican style dishes, which was very phenomenal. I would definitely recommend staying here if you have never been to Punta Cana. I give our stay 5 stars and beyond.

Beautiful home, lovely proprietors
The home is very beautiful and in very good condition. Petra and Jose Luis are both very kind and welcoming, and helped us by being very responsive to our many questions, and giving us a great deal of local insight. The setting is very picturesque - the back yard is more private than the surrounding villas on the golf course. There was a lot of room for each of us for our family of 8. It was a little unsettling that the back half of the house is completely open to the golf course - there is no wall, and therefore you need to lock each bedroom area independently as each door is essentially an outside main door. This gave us a little concern for safety with our younger kids each in individual rooms, but as the week went on we became accustomed to this. We were a little disappointed that the spa did not have a heater. This may just be the norm in the DR, but coming from the US we weren't aware that would be the case. The water was a little brisk, and we would have spent a lot more time in the pool and spa if either or both had a heater. Overall it was a wonderfully relaxing experience in a very beautiful home, with very helpful owners.

Thank you for the awesome time at your house!! The pictures don’t do justice. Petra and her husband are wonderful down to earth people who explained everything to the T our whole stay. Most houses don’t give you electricity included but they give you it included in the rent a certain amount max per day.. That is reasonable because rentals in the DR charge extra for that and this was the only house I knew that didn’t have extra hidden fees which was great to know. My cousin and I and all girls was greeted with fruit and wine!! Delcia the cook was amazing and sweet I wanted to take her back with me home to cook too. She makes delicious meals every day just have a menu of what you would like her to make and if you can have it in Spanish that would help a lot. Bring mosquito spray I got ate up lol they loved to bite me and it was nothing I could do about that.. being in the Caribbean it is to be expected with the humidity being so high. I will be back to stay here I wish I could have stayed a few more days and forget about not having to go back to work. Thank you for everything..

Beautiful house, we enjoyed our stay but do your homework first & read between the lines, see below.
The house is beautiful and met our expectations, however we were surprised to find out that we did not have the house to ourselves. The mandatory “daily maid” service is actually a mandatory “live-in house sitter” that provides maid service. Delicia is a delight and phenomenal cook but we are a private family and found it moderately intrusive to be sharing a house with someone we did not know or invite. This is our 4th year using VRBO for our family vacation and the first time we had a house sitter. Another surprise was the additional electricity charged at the end of our stay. We were extremely conservative in our electricity use and monitored it daily. The 210 kilowatts that are included in the contract may work if you do not need air conditioning. If you use the air conditioning you should definitely reserve an additional cash to pay at the end of your stay. Our monthly electrical costs for our home of similar size in the United States is less than a 3rd of what we paid there. With all of this noted, if you are okay sharing the house and are aware going into your stay of the additional costs associated with the electricity, the house served us well and we enjoyed it.

For over forty years I have worked in the tourist industry and learned to differentiate good clients from bad ones. I also learned that reducing your prices to increase the occupation has its problems as it is in this case.With regard to this particular report, I would like to point out the following 1-The description of Villa Ibiza Cana on the Homeaway page is very clear with respect to: Check in is at 3.00 p.m. these clients wanted to occupy the villa in advance even knowing that the same day the previous customers returned to their country.The villa was delivered to them at 2 p.m one hour before . 2-The property does not allow animals. The customers mentioned the first day picked up a dog from the street and they entered the house until the last day , breaking the norm. When the clients lived the animal stayed in the country, so we understand that it was a senseless . To have a dog was just fun. 3-In the description of the house it is clearly stated that the Housekeeper is mandatory, do Villa Ibiza Cana it is a million dollar villa with many technical and organizational aspects that can not be left in the hands of the clients. The Housekeeper lives in the Villa in separate room, with private bathroom and private refrigerator, and has separate entrance from the main entrance, so its functions are protection and not intrusion into the privacy of customers. 4-In the description and in the Rental Agreement is clearly stated that the renter have included per day 30KW of electricity. That's mean 210KW PER WEEK NOT PER DAY. Electricity Rates in Dominican Republic are very expensive, this is the reason because most of the Villas charge for it. Villa Ibiza Cana has over 35 - five Stars reviews, except the one we have received from this costumers. This matter has been a good experience for us and now we know that reducing prices is at the same time reducing the quality of our costumers.

Nothing But The Best at this property
We stayed at this beautiful house with 4 teenagers . Everyone had plenty of space and privacy. We felt so special just to be there. Dilcia, the housekeeper and chef was spot on with her services and was very kind and accommodating. Jennie treated us top notch and did her very best to see we had plenty of activities and were enjoying our stay. I can't say enough about our experience here at Ibiza Cana!

Dream House
The Ibiza Cana Villa is the most beautiful property we have every stayed in, hands down. Our family enjoyed everything about this house, particularly the integration of the outdoor/indoor living spaces. With gentle breezes blowing and sun shades thoughout, it was wonderful to sit and relax. The house is basically like your own private hotel, courtesy of Dilcia, the live-in housekeeper. The view onto the golf course is lovely, full of tropical plants and palm trees. The pool and jacuzzi were great, we used them every day. Honestly, this house was the focus of our vacation, we really didn't do much other than relax at the house or take trips to the beautiful Bavaro beach. Of course we asked Dilcia to cook for us, and her delicious meals were highlights of the day. The golf course community is quiet, friendly, and secure. The owners of this beautiful house, Petra and Jose, are the most accommodating and knowledgable hosts. Any question or request is quickly answered. Look no more, go to Punta Cana and stay in this dream house!

Gorgeous home!
What you see is what you get! The online pictures of Ibiza Cana are gorgeous and the home did not disappoint, it was even more gorgeous than the pictures show. Our family of four had a great stay and more than enough space. The golf course grounds on which the property sits are gorgeous and just far enough set back that you never felt like golfers or golf balls were "intruding" on you. The house is also very close to the Palma Real shopping center, which you can easily access by golf cart. Petra and Jose, the owners, were so helpful, accommodating, and available. Any question we had leading up to the trip and during our stay were immediately answered via email. While the pool is small (photos show that, so we knew what we were getting), it was more than adequate for the 4 of us. Dilcia the housekeeper and chef prepared most of our meals during our stay, and they were delicious!

Just like the pictures!!!
Beautiful property, just like the pictures!!! Awesome view of the lake with the siting of cranes and flamingos. Love the outdoor and indoor affect. The pool and sauna were awesome, heated by the tropical sun gave it the perfect temperature. Everyone in my family was impressed. So much room. Close proximity to stores, restaurants and neighboring resorts. On site 24 hour security made us feel very safe. Dilcia was wonderful. She kept the house clean and prepared our meals upon request. She also had the pool guy to pick fresh mangos from the tree on the property for our breakfast. The pool guy was very friendly and kept the pool area very clean. Being a home cook, I decided to bake a cake; and noticed the lack of some kitchen essentials. A mixer would be helpful with measuring cups and measuring spoons. Jenny was also very nice and helpful. She meet us at the house, gave us a tour and answered all of questions. She was very accessible via phone or whatsapp (text). Upon our departure Jenny meet us at the house for our close out. After our departure my son noticed that he left some clothing items behind and Jenny was gracious enough to send Dilcia back to check. Yup, he left them and she is willing to ship them to the USA at our cost. Over all the house was outstanding. Petra and Jose, you have a beautiful home and we thank you for sharing it with us. It is in good care with the staff you have caring for it. We look forward to coming back to Punta Cana, and we will definitely stay at Ibiza Cana.
