Beautiful place to stay!

Monte Placido is a lovely place with a spectacular view of the mountains and ocean. Don and Diana have put a lot of work and loving care into making it a home and a great place to stay. We had a beautiful view from our place. We ended up staying in Jasmin because our place was not quite ready due to Sandy. I know Don and Diana are working hard to update all of their units. We had some trouble finding the place, got lost and we didn't speak any Spanish. We finally reached Don and lead us to his place. It is true, that it is a very steep hill to get up there and it is quite hard to find. The landscaping is an amazing array of beautiful flowers and plants that Don has spent a lot of time in planning and planting. It is amazing the way they have built Monte Placido on a hillside. It is so unique. We loved the infinity pool and ended up spending a lot of time there just relaxing. The weather was beautiful, except for a few doozy storms at night. Don and Diana were very helpful in finding places to go. Our only real problems was that very little English is spoken there and most of the menus were in Spanish and French. We got fresh lobster delivered on one day and when we arrived we had the most delicious Mahi Mahi waiting for us. We enjoyed it on our balcony in candlelight. They also had breakfast and other items stocked in the kitchen. Thank you Don and Diana for being such great hosts.

What an amazing relaxing beautiful stay

Wow where do I start. My wife and I just can't stop talking about how wonderful our stay was. We keep telling each other I wish I was back in the DR again. Let me just say that Don and Diana are so accommodating. They had made sure our stay there was the most memorable trip we could have. Totally awesome. When we had arrived we had dinner prepared for us on our awesome terrace. Which overlooked the mountain top and ocean view. We stayed in the Jasmine. Which I highly recommend. Diana was so sweet with sitting down with us and accommodating Yoga for my wife and any questions we had to make us feel right at home and very comfortable in anything that we wanted to do. Don was great about helping us plan our outings. He sat down and explained where the best spots were, prices, and directions and what to expect. We could not have done it without Don and Diana. We are a pretty active couple so sightseeing and activities is what was on our list. We went to Don's sailing club which was an amazing experience. Went sailing with Saul on one of there catamarans. Swimming in the middle of the ocean with perfect bath water was like a dream come true. Our second outing was horseback riding in the mountains at the waterfalls. The people our so nice in making sure we are having an awesome time. Taking pictures for us. Spectacular views of the hill side and waterfalls. Oh and I cannot forget we did our grocery shopping in town. Then had Mauty the cook prepare our dinners for us. When we would arrive back at the resort everything was done dishes, table set, dinner on the table. Perfect cooking. That was so awesome. We felt so special and treated so fairly threw-out our stay. Among a couple of other things we did is walked the beaches, tanned on the beaches which our simply gorgeous. Did the zip lines in Samana. Wow what an experience of a lifetime. Truly that was the highlight of trip. Did some snorkeling. Very beautiful. The true blue waters, the white sandy beaches average of 88-92 degrees F everyday. I can tell you this. My wife and will again return. We were so impressed with the Island and everything it had to offer. The Monte Placido is definitely the place to stay. You will not regret your stay!! Thank you so much Don and Diannia. You helped My wife and I have the perfect honeymoon of a lifetime. Can't wait to see you and the DR again. Sincerely, Robert and Annia

Gute Unterkunft mit herrlicher Aussicht !

Wir waren im Januar für gut 2 Wochen auf dem Monte Placido zu Gast und können die Unterkunft empfehlen. Die Lage auf dem Berg mit Blick auf den Ozean oder in die grünen Berge ist unbeschreiblich schön! Ein sehr schöner Pool, ein BBQ - Grill ist für alle Gäste nutzbar. Ebenso stehen verschiedene Mietfahrzeuge zur Verfügung. Die ausstattung der Villa ( Yasmin ) ist rustikal aber alles notwendige ist vorhanden. Die Vermieter sowie die angestellten kümmern sich herzlich um die Bedürfnisse der Gäste. An dieser Stelle noch einmal vielen Dank an Diana,Don und Jean Claude!

Gut: Sauberkeit, Ausstattung, Zustand der Unterkunft und Kommunikation
Monte Placido is truly a little piece of heaven on earth. There is so much good about it that makes for a wonderful, laid back, natural beauty infused experience. The location is magical - with fantastic views of the tropical vegetation and ocean. The surroundings are stunning - with the very well taken care of and very rich botanical gardens on the property and the infinity pool. The accommodations are a perfect blend of comfortable, practical and unique. This is the ideal place for a getaway where your priority is relaxing, a calm and beautiful surrounding and connection with nature. The most beautiful beaches start at only a 5 minute drive away, and the town of Las Terrenas with its fresh fish market, grocery stores, french bakery and loads of restaurants and shops is only a 15 minute drive away. Other pluses - BBQ near the pool, friendly staff and attentive hosts. Oh, and the yoga cave and massage room too... Loved finding this place and our stay there - definitely coming back again and again!

Wonderful hosts, comfortable environment

Don and Diana go out of there way to make sure you feel comfortable, relaxed and welcomed at their "retreat" home. It is quiet (except for the wake up call from the roosters) and away from the busy city. But, it is close enough that if you need anything or want to get to the beach, it's only a 10-15 minute drive. I would recommend a car to provide flexibility, but the owners do give other options. We spent one entire day by the pool and enjoyed the view! I would highly recommend this place to the travelers that are looking for a true get away. Enjoy!

Amazing hilltop paradise

We were looking for peace and quiet with tropical beauty and found it at Monte Placido. The driveway is a world class hill climb for a 3 cylinder car (splurge for a 4 cylinder!) but its necessary to have the stunning views we enjoyed. It was a nice luxury to have a whole casa to ourselves - the Falcone - and we would request it again for the vistas from the balcony. Don and Diana are responsive hosts who managed to provide a great experience despite the local electric power company going bankrupt, leaving a good chunk of Samana without power for weeks. They were getting solar quotes when we left! Looking froward to a longer stay next year.

Joyful Rejuvenation at Monte Placido

What a view! This place is idyllic, a set of whimsical mountain cottages set discreetly in a lovely, lively garden; birds and blooms and butterflies abound. The owners have taken great care to honor the natural features of the hilltop; each of the terraces has a unique view, and each makes the most of Samana's gorgeous light. The rooms are comfortable and well appointed; inside and outside spaces are equally inviting. Of special note is Shiva's Cave, an open yoga studio set into the hillside in what is still a natural cavern. This space, which can hold up to twenty-five practicing yoginis, is beautifully designed to allow a full view of the valley and the bay below. It's perfect for morning meditation, afternoon asanas, and sundown savasanas, a lovely spot from which to contemplate both earth and sky. If you are visiting the Dominican Republic with aspirations to rest and rejuvenate, Monte Placido is just the place for you.

Top notch property with amazing views!!!!

Everything about this location was amazing. The owners staff and everything I was able to do and experience on this trip to Monte Placido the best vacation I have taken in over 10 years. Would def go back. And I highly recommend this location for anyone no matter your past travel experiences. The area was completely safe and secure. One of the most beautiful location I've been to in the Dominican Republic.

Very special place

This place was incredible. Unbelievable views from the house and the pool. The gardens were so beautifully landscaped and the house was unique and very comfortable. My husband was a little nervous about no air conditioning but there were constant breezes and the fans above the beds kept us cool at night. It got a bit hot in the house in the morning but it wasn't a big deal because we went to the pool or the beach. The hosts were very helpful and it was really nice to have our first meal prepared for us by Jeannette. Definitely stay here if you want a unique and totally different experience than the hotel environment. I will say if you're renting a car the road up to the property is quite steep and it was slippery when it was wet so an economy car might have had an issue going up it when the roads are wet. My 3 year old son loved the geese and turkeys on the property, the yoga cave and the pool were perfect for exploring. We were there in the off season so we had the place to ourselves. If felt like a private retreat. Simple yet lovely accommodations. I would totally stay again and recommend it to the adventure seeking, non-resort minded traveler

Monte Placido is well worth a stay.

Beautiful view from our gorgeous villa overlooking lush green hills and the ocean beyond. Very private villas, each with own view of the stunning scenery. The kitchen is well outfitted, the villa airy and spacious. The hosts Don and Diana were always attentive and ready to answer any questions or help out. Their two dogs Bingo and Jolie are sweet and always kept behind the fence. There are nice walks in the area, lots of interesting birds to sight, Las Terrenas is not far away by motoconcho. It is a lovely, safe, tasteful, interesting place to stay.

One of my favorite holiday 'homes'

This place is amazing - we debated whether to stay in the town of Las Terranes or out here and I am SO glad we chose this place. Town is an easy drive and the ability to go into the bustling town, and then come back out to the peace and tranquility of this place was amazing. We LOVED our apartment - kitchen had all that we needed, the balcony was to die for and the bedroom view was spectacular. Highly recommended.

The vacation homes were truly a breathtaking paradise. Topped off by the infinity pool and yoga cave, we never wanted to leave! Other than some plumbing and bug issues it was a dream vacation with memories to last a lifetime. Thank you again Diana and Don, we will be back soon!

vacances au top

Je me devais de laisser un message après deux semaines passées à Monte Placido et je dois dire que ces vacances vont rester dans les annales. Pour commencer parlons du lieu : Monte placido a l'avantage d'être située dans les hauteurs (je ne vous parle pas de la vue panoramique du pays ...) et se situe entre toutes les plus belles plages du coin : Bonita, Cosos, Rincon et Moron. La région est magnifique et si je devais faire le point sur tout ce que j'ai vu je pourrais écrire un annuaire …. La résidence présente l'avantage d'être très proche de la ville en scooter (que les propriétaires peuvent louer aux locataires ainsi qu'un quad) ce qui permet de participer à la vie nocturne du pays, de faire des courses sans partir à l'autre bout du monde et surtout de ne pas se retrouver en plein milieu des quartiers de touristes. Les propriétaires sont vraiment sympathiques et Donald (le propriétaire) est totalement bilingue français anglais et espagnol ce qui aide vraiment beaucoup. Toujours de bon conseils, ils nous ont aiguillé ma copine et moi durant notre séjour : ces gens sont très sympathiques et on ne se sent vraiment pas traité comme un touriste. Pour ce qui est du confort, la villa est parfaitement équipée (service de maison impeccable) et est très sécurisée (même si je pense que la rep dom est contrairement aux idées reçus un pays calme et pas dangereux). Pour les gens casaniers, il y a même une piscine à débordement incroyable avec vue imprenable sur le pays …. une vraie carte postale (il y a même un barbecue à coté de la piscine). Bref, si vous voulez de vraies vacances, souffler, voir du pays et des gens sympathiques, je vous recommande vivement d'aller y faire un tour vous allez pouvoir déconnecter du quotidien !

Absolute heaven on earth!

I feel bad it's taken me so long to write about this unbelievable location. By far, this was the best part of our trip. We are very active individuals on our vacations, but we HAD to at least spend a whole day lounging around the infinity pool drinking fresh coconuts... taking in the view from our balcony in the Falcona. I can see how people would come visit and spend all their time on this property. It was one of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed. And the fact that we had access to a car for our time there was perfect! I will forever recommend it to others. Thank you for our wonderful stay, Don!

tranquillo, lindo

I guide bird tours. I came to see the area and find the place ideal for a relaxed vacation, above the bustle of the coastal town, but with access to all the restaurants, beaches and shopping possible. The host and hostess are very welcoming. This is a very good choice for persons desiring privacy yet access at the same time.

Outstanding vacation at Monte Placido!

After the never-ending winter of 2014 - wI needed to get away to restore ourselves and didn't know where to go.We had never been to the DR, as whenever all we'd heard about it - all-inclusive resorts of Punta Cana/Puerto Plata. When we travel, we prefer to take in a bit more of the culture and not follow the masses and do our own thing. AND I'm happy to say, we found it at Monte Placido, located on an idealic hilltop on the Samana Peninsula in the DR. If you can fly into El Catey, do it! It's only 40 minutes- mostly beautiful scenic drive along the coast of the azure-colored Atlantic Ocean on a brand new hwy. Once you get to Monte Placido, (yes, it's a steep hill, but after going up once and tackling a couple of sharp turns - you'll get the hang of it) put it in the low-gear, take it steady and you'll be compensated by a breathtaking view. You are welcomed by 5 Spanish-style ochre-colored houses surrounded by a smartly landscaped garden with a kaleidoscope of tropical flowers with lush trees to give each unit their own sense of privacy - juxtaposed by an infinity pool. While you're obviously not on the beach - you are surrounded in the foreground by a 180 degree view of the Atlantic coastline with a constant warm ocean breeze.Each of the units are charmingly decorated - kept immaculately clean with all that you need (Flat screen Sat TV with a few English channels) WiFi if you need to be connected, fully equipped kitchens with all necessary dishware, pot&pans, etc.Some units are fenced, making them dog-friendly should you decide to bring Fido along! Owners Don and Diana, who live on-site in the center villa, are very conscientious of guest privacy. We barely saw them unless we rang their bell. The groundskeeper Jean-Claude, along with the rest of the crew are extremely polite and are mindful of any noise You can discover so much of the region as Monte Placido is located at the centre of the Samana Peninsula making most attraction nearby (we were at secluded world-class beaches in 15 minutes) and most others within 1 hour away at the most. The town of Los Terranas is nothing special, but are countless great dinning options. IN short - if you have a penchant for the standard all-inclusive experience then this is not the place for you. BUT, if you're in for something special with lots of local charm and a priceless setting , then, be sure to put Monte Placido on your Caribbean 'bucket list'. You will not regret it.We can't wait to go back!

Medetaranian Style Villas in Tropical Paradise

Minutes after we passed several beautiful sandy beaches, we approached the hilltop retreat nestled in a pristine, quiet town just outside Las Terranas. The first thing we noticed, and how can you not!, was the breathtaking views of the lush tropics and the ocean. At the top, the warm caretaker, Jean Cluade, greeted us and carried our bags as we were welcomed by the retreat's very hospitable owners Don and Dianne. 1st impressions being everything, we were thrilled, as were our young children. We immediately walked through the impressively landscaped grounds to the infinity pool overlooking that million dollar view. My wife disappeared to the (again) spectacular and tranquil grotto and terrace perched on the hillside for meditation and yoga. We were in love. Our children were in love. And it only got better. The owners were not only gracious, but also knew everybody in the area and were happy to set up anything, from horseback rides to grand waterfalls, to a thorough rundown of the half dozen different beaches nearby, to having a local fisherman bring an impressive array of fish and lobster caught that day, right to our doorstep. Don and Dianne also happen to be very tuned into the community and have the inside scoop on anything you can imagine. We stayed for 3 weeks. The Villas have an old world Mediterranean feel, and ours had space to spare for our 5 member family. We stayed at a handful of other little places in our 5 week stay, but none compared to here. We can't say enough about it... other than we are going to book it for a month this coming Winter! And I guess that says it all...

Beautiful, calm, peaceful

Placido is perfectly situated atop a hill overlooking the jungle, farmer's fields and magnificent sweeping ocean vistas. Beautiful gardens well looked after added to the beauty of the grounds and pool area. The meditation cave is a must see. Even when full the grounds were never crowded, a pleasant change from the all inclusive experience. Don and Diana are absolutely great hosts looking after all our needs. Only a short drive into town but also located close to all the various attractions on the peninsula, We couldn't have asked for a better spot. Janis and I spent a full month there relaxing and decompressing and would return in a moment. We met some great people there who we have kept in contact since. I highly recommend Placido as the perfect place, whether for few days or a longer stay, whether as a couple or a family. It was wonderful. Thank you Don and Diana and say hello to Jean Claude.

Private, well-kept & stunningly beautiful.

Monte Placido was what we anticipated and more! On the top of a mountain, this villa overlooks the ocean, the forest and more mountains. Jean-Claude and his helper keep the grounds immaculate, rotating from one garden to another...the gardens are gorgeous. Our hosts, Don and Diana, were always helpful and ever available to answer our plethora of questions or find us a taxi to the night club, or a fresh-caught fish for dinner. We stayed in Lilka, a one bedroom unit with spacious rooms, lots of storage, & an incredible view from the large deck. The infinity pool is so pleasant and refreshing with an area to dine if you so desire...you can even bbq your meal there. Las Terrenas has many restaurants...for every budget & taste. We quite enjoyed our meal at Tam Tam. And for good coffee, grab a seat outside at the Boulangerie and sip on a cafe con leche while watching the activity on the street. Access to beaches is extremely easy. Whale Samana is highly recommended as an activity. Talk to Jennifer at Nativ' Art on Calle Duarte for some local art pieces. She speaks English & is very friendly and helpful. We were booked for 1 month, & took way too many clothes as it is easy to hand wash & hang to dry. We rented a vehicle from our hosts which made access to everything much easier. The Samana peninsula is as yet undeveloped and a great change from the all-inclusive scene in the D.R. This villa is gated, with watchmen and an attentive watch dog, Bingo. We never felt threatened at any time during our stay...at the villa or in the villages. Now, of course, no place is perfect. Because we had a unit below us, we had neighbours. Crying babies to start, then a family who allowed their two young boys to scream for long periods of time throughout the day. Not sure how our hosts can deal with this kind of issue, but it was unsettling when we wanted to spend a day around the villa. We noted that our beach visits would have been longer had we had folding chairs provided to take with us. Snorkeling and swimming is awesome, but when you want to hang out or read on the beach, a towel on the sand just doesn't cut it. Maybe something for Don and Diana to include in each unit, or upon request. Overall, I quite enjoyed my stay, and would recommend (and have) to others to consider Monte Placido as a base for a visit to the Samana peninsula. Try to fly into Samana El Catey though, as it is a mere 45 minutes from Monte Placido.

Isolated private site , pleasant villas great view

Don and Diana are very helpful and accommodating. The villas are clean, lovely, well furnished - everything you need to feel at home. The setting is unique with wonderful distant views and spectacular landscaping. One must, however, have reliable transportation, like a car, since one is constantly traveling to Las Terrenas(5 KM distant) for food, restaurants, entertainment and beaches. The pool is great. We would definitely recommend Monte Placido to others. One sore point: wi-fi internet was unreliable to non-existant even though advertised as available.

It is important to note that we live on-site. Our home has a reception area, so you will feel at ease stopping by to talk with us. In a rare occasion if we are not home, we have a caretaker and his family that also live on site. Jean Claude speaks Spanish and basic English. He is also available to help you. A very comprehensive “Guest Book” is in each home. There you will find many answers to frequently asked questions and information about excursions, shopping and bus schedules.

Das macht diese Unterkunft einzigartig

MONTE PLACIDO is on a hill top overlooking the ocean. The residence is gated and safe. We always enjoy the nice cooling Trade Winds from the Atlantic and therefore have very few mosquitos. We are not ON the BEACH; however, we are centrally located to the many beaches in the area. Drive down our hill and you are in a typical Dominican Village. We love it because you get the feel of the local culture and charming, friendly people. An elementary school is in our neighborhood. If you feel inclined, they are so very happy to accept donations of easy reading books in Spanish or other school supplies. Rancho Playa is also in our neighborhood very close by. They offer horseback riding excursions up the mountains and to the beaches.
A short walk down our hill to the main road you will find public transportation. A "Guagua" pick-up truck goes back and forth to Las Terrenas about every half hour dusk to dawn. Hop on and ride for about one dollar. We also have a trusted “moto-concho” driver. We can call him to bring you back and forth to town on his motorbike(s). Taxis are also available. In addition, we have a friend with a pick-up truck that you can reserve to take you to town and be your designated driver. At the same spot on the main road you can get a bus to and from Santo Domingo three times a day. It is an easy airport trip. Many of our guest take a short taxi ride form the airport in Santo Domingo to the bus station for TRANSPORTE LAS TERRENAS. The bus costs RD$500 (about $8 US) and will stop at our corner on the main road 3 times a day. We will be happy to meet the bus at Calle Luna and bring you up our hill. Although guests have been able to manage using only public transportation we recommend that you rent your own vehicle so that you are free to explore the Samana Peninsula. The main road system is safe and in good condition and a 4x4 or SUV is not required.
