About the host
Hosted by Fred Ribes
Fred and Julie have lived and hosted in Las Terrenas for 20 years. We love to have families and friends gather from all over the world at Villa Los Secretos.
Why they chose this property
It's the biggest Villa on the best playa, Las Ballenas, in Las Terrenas. The garden is huge, the beach & ocean are steps away, as are the many bars and restaurants and activities of Las Terrenas.
What makes this property unique
You are at the best beach in the Dominican Republic. Most large villas require cars to experience the beach, cusine and nightlife of Las Terrenas. At Villa Los Secretos everything is in walking distance. And if you do not want to leave the property just enjoy one of the largest pools and gardens in Las Terrenas.
