This graceful Caribbean property combines elegance and simplicity: a real dream come true! This is the perfect escape to a tropical paradise just for you. It’s a must visit, with its precious beach, abundant colorful coral reefs minutes away for snorkeling and, with Blue Island brand new catamaran, just 20 minutes away from the famous Cayo Paraiso, ranked by CNN Travel in May 2013 ¨The 34th most beautiful beach in the world¨.

Villa Mango is the perfect getaway, with its private gated 11,000 sq. ft. property, exclusive coral sand & crystal water beach, 4 spacious bedrooms each with air-conditioning included, 2 full bathrooms with water heater, 55”LED TV in family area and 32” TV in rooms facing the beach, cable TV service, wireless internet, large brick BBQ (Charcoal NOT PROVIDED), hammocks, open terrace dinning space, interactive very well equipped kitchen (NO DISHWASHER), laundry area with washing and drying machine.

Just next door, you have “Paradise Island” a tour operator that offers tours to tourists visiting Cayo Paraiso. Blue Island and Paradise Island also offers breakfast, lunch and early dinner that can be served directly at Villa Mango's table as if we were part of both restaurants: they also serve drinks to the public.

The perfect Dominican spot with one of the country’s least percentile of precipitation (it almost never rain), a great condition to guaranty a wonderful outdoor vacation.

Will definitely come back!
We were all delighted with this amazing home. The house is great and very well equipped. The views are incredible and it is so convenient to have such a great restaurant next door (Blue Island). This is a great place to bring your family and spend some quiet time. The beach is incredible. We saw more traffic during the weekend as locas will come to the beaches near to the house ,but it all gets even better during the weekdays as you have the entire length of the beach for yourselves. We are already planning next year's vacation to the same place !

Wonderful place for a family beach vacation
Great house, wonderful excursion to Cayo Arena that leaves from literally right off the beachfront, mesmerizing swim through the waterfalls, and very friendly and helpful staff. Just know that the town is minimal, food options after 6pm have to be planned, and the ride to get there takes a while.

Paradise!
Our stay at Punta Rucia exceeded all expectations. The home was very clean and the beach and ocean pristine. Natalie and Carl Phillipe were gracious hosts and the excursions they arranged were such a treat. The restaurant staff was very professional and the meals were delicious. Not enough can be said of Kleibe, Rafelina and Alphonse who made us feel welcome and safe. We would like plan a return trip!

Beautiful but much more rural than anticipated.
Getting to the house is a VERY long, winding ride from either airport (2-1/2 hours). Getting around the area is at best arduous. Very rocky dirt roads to anywhere. The house is lovely, although a bit too sparse in furnishings to make it comfortable. Balcony overlooking the beach is beautiful. We spent most of our time there since sitting on the beach is hazardous with the very strong trade winds that start around 11 am most days through about 5 pm. You leave the beach feeling totally sand blasted. Mosquitoes are not as bad as in many islands but the sand flies surely make up for it. The staff was lovely and always very helpful. Unfortunately, the house is sandwiched between two restaurants. One of which is up and about prepping for the day in quite a loud manner. Lots of yelling back and forth, loud music and most times. The other, runs Cataran excursions several times a week from the beach right in front of the house. Tourist and locals alike come arrive by the bus load from everywhere. We took the tour and found it to be lovely and well with the cost. Overall, it was an okay experience. We gave up trying to leave the property after the first few days because of the difficulty of getting around. Almost totally disconnected from the world (WiFi is sketchy at best). Which left lots of time for read, sleeping, and just resting up. I guess that’s what vacations are for.

Amazing vacation at Villa Mango!
Our family of 6 (grandma, husband and I, and three kids, 9, 5, 1) traveled to this remote yet charming village of Punta Rucia. The village itself is quite small and basic/rustic, and doesn't offer too many tourist like attractions (i.e. Restaurants). However, our host (Natalie & Carl-Philippe) were amazing and took care of all of our needs. They also manage an adjacent restaurant to the property, where our kids had a dozen or more Pina Coladas. And if you are not into cooking this would be a place to enjoy some French cuisine by chef Juan Carlos. You can feel the family-like atmosphere between Natalie and Carl-Philippe, their staff, and guests. It feels like they treat you as part of their family. And this is something you will never feel in an all inclusive resort or hotel type stay. The property is fantastic, and exactly as advertised. Our kids enjoyed white sandy beach and teal color waters, trampoline, swing and many beach toys that came with the house. Occasionally Alfanso, the ground keeper, would appear with a few open coconuts for our pleasure. He did a great job taking care of the property grounds and making sure we were safe. But the people that really made this trip unique and unforgettable were Kleiby, Rafalina, and their daughters. Kleiby is your right-hand man, he takes care of your needs (i.e Excursions, trips to grocery stores, snorkeling, driver, etc.). Rafalina takes care of the house (i.e cleaning & washing). She is a great cook! Our kids loved playing with their daughters. But beyond their duties, Kleiby and Rafalina, are caring, warm, open and extremely friendly people despite cultural and language barriers. We were always on the same wave with them! We spent 10 beautiful sunny days in early April: swimming, snorkeling, visiting 27 waterfalls, mangrove, deep sea, and spear fishing, 2 visits to the paradise island, and swimming with dolphins at Ocean World. Punta Rucia is all about people, hospitality, atmosphere and great times! We are definitely coming back!!!

We absolutely loved our stay! We were seeking a vacation where we could enjoy a beautiful beach and sunshine with our children, without being in a touristy area or resort. This was exactly what we got! We had an amazing beach to ourselves and a restaurant on either side of the home, both serving yummy food and drinks! The caretakers of the property are some of the sweetest people ever and will always hold a special place in our hearts. Rafaelina and Albert thank you for being so kind! Make sure you stock up on groceries before heading to the home as it is indeed away from it all! If you want constant entertainment, this is likely not the vacation for you. This is a relax and recharge vacation. About the only excursion you can do without significant drive time is snorkeling at paradise island! Definitely do this and go early to beat the crowd and party scene if you have kiddos. We did a small private trip to snorkel there and did the mangroves on our way home and it was fantastic! Papito was our guide and he was awesome! We recommend you definitely have someone pick you up and drive you to the home from the airport. Take advantage of this service. My husband travels internationally and has driven in many different countries but he even was glad he did not drive here; mainly because there is minimal signage to get around. Make sure you walk to Lino Pizza! Best pizza ever and keep in mind Blue Island serves only until 5/6 pm. We tried to make lunch our big meal out for this reason and cooked our dinner and breakfasts at the rental. Also know, this is an open to the outdoors kitchen, which we really enjoyed! Please, please...make sure to pack enough money for tipping your driver, care taker, and even the security and outdoor maintenance man Alfonso. They are kind and work hard! Absolutely wonderful vacation! Also know if you want to snorkel close to the house you can see many tropical fish right along the shoreline from blue island restaurant heading down the concrete wall and much further. Enjoy!
