About John Compai Kumpel

Compai and Kumpel both mean buddy or pal. John, the owner is from Southern New Jersey, a former member of the U.S. Army, and a utility worker. In 2010, John purchased his first property in Sosua at the Garden Condos. Then, shortly after he realized Sosua is where he wanted to live. In 2014 John was able to purchase what is now Casa De Compai. It was the fulfillment of a dream, to be able to do what he has done for 25+ years in Southern New Jersey restoring old homes, now John has done that in the Caribbean.

John’s vision for Casa De Compai is to provide an opulent vacation rental, in a upgraded well maintained property, at an affordable cost.

As Casa De Compai has grown and welcomed new and former guests to the property, attention has increased about Casa De Compai to the extent that an international magazine wrote a story about John (Compai), and how Casa De Compai started as a wish, and became the property it is today. John encourages everyone to read the blog, and follow the development of Casa De Compai.

JOHN'S VISION
I want Casa De Compai to deliver exactly what the name says, to be a home for home for friends. I love nothing better than showing new guests around town, giving them information about the area, where to eat, my favorite bars, best beaches, arranging trips or scuba diving. I adore my work, and the best part of it is the people I meet, many of who become lifelong friends.

Sosua is a resort town located on the north coast of the Dominican Republic approximately four miles from the Gregorio Luperón International Airport and accessed by Highway 5, which runs much of the length of the country’s North coastline.
History of Sosua
Sosúa has an interesting history, as during and after the end of the Second World War, the then dictator, Rafael Trujillo offered to accept up to 100,000 Jewish refugees and in the end about 800 German and Austrian Jewish refugees settled in Sosúa where the government provided them with land and resources with which they created a dairy and cheese factory. Descendants of the original settlers still live in Sosúa, where they maintain a synagogue and a museum. The town was little known until tourism took off in the island in the mid 1980s.Beaches
There are several different beaches and all are within a 12 minute walk from Casa De Compai.
Playa Sosua is the town’s main beach and is a fun, colorful and lively beach which is approximately one kilometer long, with a row of shacks along the back, selling food, drinks and souvenirs. The beach has sheltered, calm waters, and around 100 meters out there is a good reef for snorkeling. It is a great place to spend the day.
There are four other beaches, and others come and go following the effects of storms. These tend to be quieter for those who want a more relaxed beach day.
Activities
There are numerous things to do in and around Sosúa either on your own, or taking an excursion. These include scuba diving, and Casa De Compai can offer the pool training on site for you.
