About this property

Beautiful 3-Bedroom condo directly on Kite Beach that is perfect for families

This fully renovated and tastefully appointed condominium will provide you with a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the laid back pace of beachfront island living. The condominium is located on a beautiful stretch of sandy shoreline internationally renowned for its consistent onshore kiting breeze. Unlike many properties listed in Cabarete, the beautiful sand beach and reef-protected break in front of our condo provide a great place to swim and paddle board. Our small, six-unit complex provides a tropical oasis amidst the hustle and bustle of the energetic community of Cabarete and a hidden pool surrounded by beautiful gardens provides a great escape from the mid-day wind and sun. Please note that Cabarete has strict laws prohibiting prostitution and our condo security will immediately evict any tenant suspected of inviting prostitutes onto the property.

Our condominium was recently transformed by a complete remodel in 2020 and the combination of beautiful woods, stone, and tile have created a stunning space to rest and relax. The condominium has three well-appointed bedrooms and three bathrooms with glass enclosed showers. Each bedroom has a comfortable King Size bed and there is an available hotel-quality rollaway twin available if needed. Each bedroom also has quiet and efficient ceiling fans, access to a small poolside or oceanside balcony, and A/C units if needed for warmer nights.

The Palacio Atlantico condominium complex is a small, well-managed complex and is staffed 24 hours a day for your comfort and security. In addition, our personal condo unit is managed by a wonderful woman named Kathy Santos who will provide an on-island, English-speaking, point of contact for you throughout your stay. Kathy is a veritable encyclopedia of local knowledge and will be eager to assist in making your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Kathy is a wonderful host and will work to make sure that your arrival, stay, and departure goes well. If desired, Kathy will be more than pleased to assist in arranging for groceries upon your arrival, arrange for airport pickup, or arrange for tours or activities in the region for an additional charge.

The renovated mahogany and granite kitchen is equipped with a 36” propane range, gas oven, fridge, microwave, coffee maker, blender and a number of other small appliances. There is a small Weber grill on our ocean-front balcony for your use and all of the necessary utensils, pots, pans, plates, bowls, glasses, and mugs will be available for your use throughout your stay.

For your convenience and entertainment, we recently installed a new LED television in the living room and master bedroom and there is WiFi available throughout the apartment. The televisions are both Smart TV's and if you have a Netflix or other streaming service, you should be able to view programming at you leisure but the view from the deck typically means the TV is rarely used. Please note that the internet in the Dominican Republic can be sporadic at times and we honestly try to view active WiFi as a bonus and not a given. That said, we have recently installed a fiberoptic connection and speeds up to 100 MB/S can be obtained upon request (typically maintained at approximately 30MB/S). Our neighboring restaurant and lounge, Taino, typically will have good WiFi if we happen to be down for some reason.

Each weekly rental includes mid-week maid service to include delivery of new towels, and general cleaning of the unit. Longer rentals will include weekly visits to change linens and provide general housekeeping in addition to the mid-week service. If you would prefer more frequent maid service it can be arranged in advance of your trip or during your stay by contacting our manager Kathy (additional fees would apply). On site guest laundry services are also available in the basement and can be utilized personally or requested from our housekeeping staff through Kathy for a nominal charge. Although we trust our building staff implicitly, we provide a programmable lockbox for storage of your personal items in the master bedroom for your peace of mind.

It is important to note that Cabarete is prone to occasional power outages as with many small third world communities. Our complex is equipped with a diesel generator for use in the event of a prolonged outage and our unit has battery-based inverters to supply electricity for shorter duration electrical outages. We also ask our guests to understand that electricity is quite expensive in the Dominican Republic and costs spike exponentially after a certain kW threshold is reached. That said, we encourage our renters to avoid overuse of the A/C units throughout the daytime hours and reserve the right to withhold a portion of the damage deposit for electrical costs if there is a gross overuse during a given stay (2x our normal kW usage). Our guests have always respected this policy and we have never needed to withhold any funds for an electrical overage to date.

Great stay in Cabarete
Ben's property is beautiful inside and out. The gardens are like a mini rainforest and the accommodations do not disappoint either. The property is right on the beach, which we really enjoyed, and there are several beach bars/restaurants to choose from. The staff, including the manager (Kathy) went above and beyond to be helpful and informative. One thing that I would have liked to have known before I arrived in Cabarete is that cash is king here and credit cards are not widely accepted FYI. Being animal lovers, the onsite friendly pets (cats & dogs) were a plus.

Didn't Want to Leave!
We enjoyed every minute of our stay at this beautiful property! The condo is clean, well-appointed and very comfortable. Communications with the owner and the manager were prompt, friendly, and helpful, and we were well cared for by all of the staff. It was a joy to begin and end each day sitting on the balcony, watching the waves, and feeling the ocean breezes, and we felt well rested and relaxed by the end of our stay. I cannot say enough about how wonderful this place is!

Another ideal vacation
We enjoyed another amazing stay at Ben's apartment in Palacio Atlantico. Ben is quick to communicate, and Kathy the property manager is very responsive and friendly, as well. The staff at the building are friendly and helpful, as well. In terms of location, view, beach access, and the apartment itself, you cannot find a better place on the North Coast of the DR!

First trip to the DR
I took my family to the DR as an early Christmas present. This was our first time in the country. VRBO made it easy to find a suitable property. We needed a 3 bedroom condo, preferably on the beach. After much consideration I chose Palacio Atlantico located on Kite Beach. Communication with the owner Ben was seamless. He was always quick with the response to any questions. The property is beautiful, clean, and well maintained. His onsite manager Kathy was super helpful. We flew into Santiago, about an hour and a half away from the property. Kathy set up transportation for us and it went smoothly. There was one hiccup, the swimming pool was closed for renovations. That was unfortunate but Ben went above and beyond to make it right. Overall we had a great trip and would 100% recommend Palacio Atlantico as a great place to stay!

Exactly as pictured! Beautiful!!
My brother and I stayed at this property for a week and it was wonderful! The owner, Ben, and property manager, Kathy, were great to work with, very responsive and helpful. All the staff were friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed seeing all the plants being grown for use on the property. The condo was beautiful, modern, clean, and had everything we needed. We watched colorful kites every day from the patio and made good use of the grill when we didn’t go out to eat. Visited several other beaches and they were all spectacular. Loved being able to rent loungers and have someone bring you food and drinks. Driving is an adventure and not for the timid. Just drive like the locals or have Kathy find you a driver. I really can’t say enough good things about the property, the people, and the whole experience. Thank you for a great vacation!

Awesome Property
My family and I stayed at this property in November 2022. From the time we had contact with the owner, Ben, to check out, the entire process was easy and smooth. Ben and Kathy (property manager) were quick to respond to any questions, recommendations, etc. The property itself is beautiful and very safe, nicely decorated, clean, the kitchen had every amenity needed, the kite show every afternoon was fun to watch, the property was close to Cabarete and there were excellent restaurants within walking distance. Kathy, the property manager was always available, and no matter what was needed was there to assist. The 2 dogs who live at the property, Noir & Blanco, were friendly and became part of the family by the second day. All of the help on the property were extremely nice and friendly. Kathy also set us up w/ a driver, Marino, who was outstanding. Everything about the trip was a perfect 10, and we plan to go back again when we can. If you are going to DR, this is the place to stay.

Hidden Treasure
Our vacation started by Marino, taxi driver that is recommended by this place, picked us up with a big, happy welcome. As the gate to Palacio Atlantico opened we were all amazed as we were entering into a tropical paradise for 11 awesome days!! The walkway was surrounded with luscious tropical plants, opening up.to an inviting swimming pool and 2 friendly dogs, Blanca and Noir greeting us. Manager Kathy was there to meet us and show us to our home away from home. She was so helpful and welcoming throughout our whole stay. The view from our balcony was priceless. Sound of the waves, birds was very soothing. Location was perfect-nice 30 minute walk along the beach to restaurants was enjoyable. We also walked along the road to Belgium Bakery for breakfast but was very hot. Vagamundo was an awesome place as well for breakfast; VoyVoy and a small place called Casita something-only serve brunch on weekend and it’s only one choice but very healthy and delicious. All the staff were very helpful, approachable, visible at all times; hard workers especially Harley, Pedro and Dulceta (don’t think I have her name right, sorry) super friendly! 😃 I thought my kids who are 23, 26,, 29 would have wanted to stay in an all inclusive said, this was their best vacation ever!! They still were able to go to nightclubs that were close by. We were so happy with everything! Most definitely will be promoting this property. Thank you !!! 😃

Amazing VRBO
Ben and Jen prepared us for an amazing stay in DR. The property manager Kathy was attentive to all questions and set up tours for us and Marino our private taxi driver was friendly and on time every day. Kathy speaks clear English and is so kind. Schedule a massage at the condo, best ever. The property dogs are so loving and love head massages and tummy rubs. All garden staff are helpful and friendly too. We ate breakfast at Vegamundo 3x, must go there. You can walk beach to get there. You can text the hosts anytime or Kathy on property and ALL will respond quickly and help you with any concerns or recommendations to do on your trip. All the people renting other units are friendly to chat with. You will be grateful to have chosen this VRBO. Enjoy!

About the host

Hosted by Ben Fravel

Host profile image
My wife Jenny and I would like to welcome you to our condo. Our family of five has shared ownership of this condominium with two close friends and business partners . I am a dental specialist in Hudson Wisconsin and our family loves to visit Cabarete as often as possible. Following from some major renovations, we decided to begin renting our condo on a limited basis to share this small slice of paradise with families looking for a quality vacation that is far away from the all-inclusives that we grew so tired of. We hope that you and your family will enjoy our home away from home as much as we do.

Sincerely,
Ben Fravel

Why they chose this property

My wife and I had traveled extensively before kids and our family had been stationed in a number of locations with the military over the years. We eventually discovered that all-inclusive resorts are the same whether in Phoenix, Grand Cayman, or Singapore. Our childhood memories included fond memories of old cabins in Northern Minnesota and camps that we visited on an annual basis. We decided that lasting memories often stem from a place that is visited often, and regarded as a second home. We feel blessed that we have been able to make Cabarete our second home and have enjoyed immersing our kids in the culture and people of the Dominican Republic over the last 15 years. If you have a heart for mission work please contact us personally and we can help create a family trip that will provide more than just a week away.

What makes this property unique

Our small condominium complex provides a more private and family oriented experience than many larger complexes can. Although you may meet someone new at the pool, it isn't uncommon to have the entire place to yourself for the afternoon. The beachside palapa has a great view of all of the kiting action and provides a relaxing spot for an afternoon massage. Kiteboarding lessons are available just a few doors down and we have a personal contact with an instructor across the street who is an outstanding teacher. Stand-up paddle boards are also quite popular and there is a beautiful lagoon behind our property that allows for hour long paddles through narrow channels filled with migratory birds. The city center of Cabarete is a one mile walk to the east and becomes a vibrant yet relaxed environment every night as the diverse array of restaurants light up for an evening of beachside relaxation and revelry.
