Wonderful stay!
Our family had a wonderful stay. The house is beautiful. The bedrooms are comfortable and spacious. The back yard area was very relaxing, with a peaceful sitting area and perfectly-sized pool. It was also close (3 min golf cart ride) to the Casa de Campo resort lobby. The staff was a real treat for us. They made us breakfast and lunch every day and were friendly and proactive, without being intrusive. We'd gladly stay there again next time we're in the DR!

10/10 recommend. We have stayed at a few locations in Casa De Campo and this one might be in my top 2. The house was spotless, the grounds were gorgeous, and the staff was so friendly and accommodating. Nancy and Kika made the most delicious food, trust me ask for guacamole poolside. And Jeannette was so easy to work with, she helped get us a second golf cart, dinner reservations, and car services for airport pickups and drop offs. She was very responsive on what’s app once we arrived and had a minor issue she addressed promptly. Again can’t recommend this home enough.

Comfortable home close to Hotel and Teeth of the Dog golf course
We spent a nice vacation at villa del portal. The host is dedicated and ready to help. The villa is quite comfortable and the garden and pool well maintained. If the group is bigger than 4 people renting an extra buggie is a must. The host takes care of that. We missed a few more kitchen apparel, wine or champagne glasses, etc. All in all we had a good experience.

Beautiful home; excellent service.
Home and staff were outstanding. Spotless, comfortable, thoughtfully designed and decorated. Pool and spa worked perfectly and were cleaned daily. TV room, dining room and bedroom have separate AC units, providing comfort on humid days. Bedrooms are large, quiet and well-equipped. Property manager is responsive, knowledgeable and can-do. Highly recommended.

Easter Spring Break
Property is very well centered in Casa de Campo, beautiful lush garden and golf view. The kids enjoy the outside pool and terrace area, even the garden space for playing. The TV room was our nest for the couple of rainy days we had. The staff is super great! From the very beginning the host and the ladies at the house, they cook delicious and keep up the house in shape. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay, we’ll definitely post for next visit.

What a wonderful stay we had at Jeanette’s villa in casa de campo. We were traveling with 4 young children ages 1-8 and two grandparents. The villa was perfect for us and we even had an extra bedroom to spare. Each room includes and en-suite bathroom with was perfect for our group. The house is meticulously maintained. The outdoor pool and laniah are updated and include sonos speakers that we linked our music for fun days outside enjoying lunch and the pool while overlooking the golf course. Nancy and Kika were a delight and my kids still miss them a week later. Nancy is a very skilled cook and I would suggest enjoying all of her Dominican specialities especially the skirt steak with chimichuri..:yum. We have traveled internationally extensively with our young children and I have recommend this villa to all of my friends. Jeanette is an experienced host and took care of arranging all of our transfers, groceries and much more. What a treat to have the kitchen stocked upon arrival with a delicious meal waiting for you upon arrival.10/10! We will be back!

Loved our stay
Our family of five had a wonderful week at Villa del Portal. Our goal was to relax and this was a perfect space. The living areas are very spacious and comfortable. The outdoor space is perfect. Large pool and plenty of seating outside. The yard is gorgeous and very private. It backs up to one of the golf courses, but still very private. We loved having the golf carts to get around and used them the entire week without ever getting in a car. Everything is 10-15 minute golf cart drive away, except the main hotel which is maybe 5 minutes away. The best part of our stay was probably having Nancy and Kika there to make breakfast and lunch and take care of all the cleaning. It really took the vacation to the next level. Jeannette was very helpful making all of our dinner reservations and scheduling our Covid tests to get back to the U.S. We wouldn’t hesitate to book this property again.

Everything we hoped for
Our family had an amazing stay at this beautiful property. The yard is immaculate and we spent almost every evening for two weeks enjoying the pool, hammock, lounge chairs, grill and outdoor eating area. The setting is serene and peaceful and stunning when lit up at night. The house was everything we wanted, the bedrooms were large and comfortable. The kids enjoyed the Tv room and we all enjoyed breakfast in the dining room. Lots of rooms and seating areas within the home to enjoy some down time, and the overall aesthetic of the home is classy and appealing. Nancy did a fantastic job cooking our breakfast and keeping the house looking beautiful. The location of the home is ideal. Very close to the main golf course (we were on the tee minutes after leaving the front door). Also very convenient to tennis and the beach. We had a fantastic stay at Casa de campo and can't recommend the property enough.

Everything we expected and more.
From the moment we arrived at Villa del Porto we knew we found the perfect experience. Jeannette, the owner, made the planning and arrangements all happen easily and without any hassle. When we arrived early that first night we were greeted by staff as if we were coming home. We all were immediately taught to use Google translate so we would not miss a single beat when our poor Spanish didn't work. Lots of giggles with the staff at some of our descriptions. . The villa itself is welcoming, very spacious, comfortable and beautifully appointed in keeping with the culture. Please note the very special doors. We quickly learned about all the activities and restaurants and discovered they were endless. Being convenient to the hotel was particularly helpful. We availed ourselves of the concierge services to arrange night time vans, restaurant reservations and suggestions. Daytimes included exceptional golf, TEETH is our favourite, exploring Altos Chavon, a late afternoon trip to the spa, time at Minitas Beach, and best of all was the Polo match. Hanging out at our pool where Nancy served afternoon drinks and goodies was a wonderful end to each busy day. Nights we tried many terrific restaurants. Nancy prepared way too much for a wonderful breakfast and begged to know what we wanted for lunch when we finished. My husband would love to bring Nancy home to do his laundry. I just do not make his clothes look like she does. Geraldo managed the grounds and pool area meticulously and became a great friend. He speaks Spanish and French and is very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back. There were two couples but could easily have been four. Next year we are going back without a doubt. Best time was had by all. Thank you Jeannette for putting it all together. Andrea and John

Absolute perfection at Villa del Portal!
Words cannot express how perfect our stay at Villa del Portal was. We were there in March 2019, and the experience started before we came down with a call from Jeannette, the owner of the Villa. She has had 30+ years experience with Casa De Campo, and assisted me with wonderful recommendations for activities, dining, childcare - absolutely everything - for the duration of our stay. Each recommendation was perfect. She also assisted with our airport transfers, shopping for groceries before our arrival and organizing dining reservations. Her staff at the Villa were simply the best - so caring, polite, intuitive and the BEST chefs on the island, in our opinion!! English was not spoken, but we all managed perfectly - as we learned Spanish very quickly! They could not have been better at making sure we had everything that we needed. If I could give them 50 stars on a scale of 1-10, I would. The Casa de Campo resort was also wonderful with enough for us to do each day while we were there. We found a car was probably a necessity if you want to visit Altos de Chavon or want to do into La Romana, but the golf carts we used to get around were certainly sufficient. We will definitely ONLY stay at Villa del Portal when we return to Casa de Campo. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Great house and Jeannette was amazing!
We booked with Jeannette after a nightmare experience with another owner/property manager where they completely went dark and were unresponsive until three days before we were supposed to arrive...only to cancel our reservation due to damage to their house from previous guests. Needless to say, I was scrambling to find another house - we have three little kids and had booked expensive flights. Jeannette was the most accommodating, helpful, and kind partner. She not only responded to my requests within minutes, she also worked long and late to book reservations, buy groceries for us, and arrange transportation. She made us feel at ease after a very unsettling experience. The house was great - the rooms were big and great for large families. The staff was very friendly although I will say you need to know some Spanish as it would have been very hard to communicate without. The pool was fantastic and grounds were beautiful. The location of the house was ideal - closer to the beach than the marina which was great because for kids - the beach is the place to be. The hotel pool was fine - more of an adult scene but totally kid friendly if you're kids are self sufficient and are happy playing in the water. Overall - our stay was great. The house was lovely and the owner was definitely a highlight. Bring lots of cash - small bills. Tips are given to everyone and expected. Also - we were eaten alive by mosquitoes. A lot of the windows didn't have screens - which I'm sure is a not a big deal to the locals, but for those used to screens - wear bug spray!!

Great Villa for whole family
Set up of home was great having my elderly Mother and 4 kids. The pool is Perfect for kids to play. The two ladies working were nice and unobtrusive. My kids loved the prepared meals. Groceries very expensive though. Location is a bit far from beach and the golf carts were gas, loud and slow. Jeannette is extremely helpful and responsive. She returned calls immediately and addressed all issues, mostly very minor, in record time. She went above and beyond what I would expect by attempting to find and install a higher toilet seat for my elderly mother. It did not fit but the fact is she did not have to go so out of her way and it was much appreciated. I would rent this villa again hands down. Jeannette helped plan our activities and dinners. Restaurants are mostly very good although the ones at Marina all overrated in my opinion. The staff at Casa all nice and helpful. We had not issues at all. Jeannette is trustworthy, hard working and very kind and gracious. I would trust my vacation to her.

We planned a quick family getaway and decided in this beautiful property, we had an amazing time from the moment we arrived at the airport and had a driver waiting for us that Jeannette recommended and when we arrived at the house we were greeted by 2 beautiful women that are a part of the beautiful stay at Villa Portal they prepared an amazing meal for us and i mean amazing they cooked everyday for us and made us feel comfortable. Jeannette from the 1st phone call was very friendly and accomodated me with all the comforts from groceries to menus for all of our meals she even purchased everything for us and left receipts and a binder explaining everything, the house is very comfortable bedroom downstairs is spacious just like the upstairs, the entire house has a conversation area and is great for entertaining We just loved it Casa Campo in whole is just a beautiful place to stay

Beautiful Home!
Our family of 8 (children ages 13-23) spent Christmas/New Years 2015 at Villa Del Portal and enjoyed every minute. The home is very well maintained and spacious. Jeannette was extremely helpful during the planning process and Suleica and Anna Maria took such good care of us while we were there. The location of the home is perfect. A short walk to the hotel and running trail and a short golf cart or bicycle ride to tennis, shooting school, golf, beach, Marina and Altos de Chevon. There is something for everyone at the resort and we tried it all but the best part of our trip was the time we spent at Villa Del Portal having fun in the pool, playing cards, relaxing and sharing delicious meals together. I would definitely recommend this rental.

We can't wait to return!
We can't wait to return to Villa Del Portal. Our time there was too short. Jeannette, the owner, was extremely gracious. She helped make our vacation memorable with her recommendations for sporting activities, dining and excursions. Zuleika, the housekeeper, is a treasure. She is always upbeat, happy and smiling. Zulieka is just a joy to be around. I could go on forever...lovely open floor plan, lovely pool area, lovely air conditioned dining area and bedrooms with private dressing area and bath. There are no negatives! We look forward to returning soon.

Best Family Vacation Ever!
My family just got back from the most wonderful vacation experience at Casa de Campo. The images on the web foe this home do not do it justice. It's much more spacious and beautiful in real life. We were especially taken aback by the magnificent iron front door and of course the pool and back yard. My five yr old daughter and nephew spent most of their free time in the pool, while my parents lounged in one of the many living spaces in the house. Jeannette, the owner was extremely accommodating and professional. Her attention to detail is unparalleled. She was aware that we were traveling with children, and ensured that the staff supplied us with toys for their stay and had great recommendation for excursions to take when traveling with kids. There was even the time she personally stopped by the house to unlock the safe deposit box we mistakenly locked ourselves out of. Jeannette's staff, Zuleyka and Jackie, did a wonderful job at keeping the home clean and are both great cooks. We barely ate out!

Magical Place where my dreams came true!
After visiting Villa El Portal for the second time, it was as magical as the first. We held our "Welcoming Party" there as we had family and friends flying in to Casa De Campo for my wedding vow renewal and they were all in awe of such beautiful and comfortable home. Everything from the staff (Zuleika is great!), to the gardener and of course the owner Jeannette provided unsurpassed service. The home is very clean, pool is pristine, backyard very welcoming and relaxing. All the rooms are comfortable and make you feel as if you are in paradise. Definitely looking forward to our return and stay at this beautiful villa again.
