About this property
Villa Talanquera, ocean view, whale watching from the terrace, sleeps 11, pool
Villa La Talanquera is an ideal place to relax and unwind from the busy Western lifestyle. The property is not fenced off, creating a very spacious feeling and connecting with the ocean in front. The large covered patio with dining table and salon, directly connected to the large terrace and swimming pool, invites guests to enjoy outdoor living to the fullest, day and night.
During the whale season, January-March, magnificent humpback whales can often be seen right from the terrace.

About the host
Hosted by Hans De Schryver
I am not the owner of this property, but the exclusive rental agent.
Over the past 20 years I have lived in several places on several continents with different cultures, so I'm well-traveled and fluent in several languages. I enjoy sharing my travel experiences and listening to those of others. I enjoy showing people the beauty of Las Galeras, the remote town in the Dominican Republic where I currently live, and I take great pleasure in knowing I have helped someone experience a wonderful Caribbean vacation.
I am a proud father of a daughter and a son, whom I'm raising with my wife Visandy.
I can't live without e-books on my Kindle, nor without my laptop and Internet. They're key to running my business and keeping in touch with the world. To keep physically active, I go hiking and mountain biking regularly on the numerous dirt roads in this area. I'd be happy to take you on a ride!

Why they chose this property
I was asked by a friend of the property owner whether I would be interested in adding this spectacular home to my portfolio. A few days later I toured the house and grounds. It was clear that this property was a perfect match for my portfolio of quality Caribbean homes with a unique location and a special touch. Places like this are very hard to find, they're hidden gems and I'm glad that the owner wants to share it with other people as a vacation home.
What makes this property unique
LOCATION. This spectacular house is located in one of the most beautiful spots in the Dominican Republic, overlooking the Bay of Samana and surrounded by lush vegetation.
While it's an oasis of peace in a rural area, it's packed with comfort to guarantee an enjoyable stay.
