The loveliness of the beach and grounds and pools. The convenience with grocery shopping and restaurants by the entrance/concierge. The golf carts for elderly and pedestrian. The safety and the vigilant, friendly and caring staff. Also the nearness of the good restaurant Castaways at your doorstep. I pray there will be a chapel with Daily Mass in this area of Punta Cana tho.

Brilliant Vacation in Uvero Alto ☀️
Wow. This might be the best-kept secret in the area (Shhh!). Our family of four stayed for 9 nights in Jan 2024. This property couldn’t have been a more perfect fit. The Host/Owner, Simeon, was kind and responsive, offering good tips & guidance before our trip. Our Property Manager, Kim, was extremely professional, responsive, & helpful throughout our entire stay. The condo complex was easy to get to by airport transfer or car rental, and felt quite safe. Some older reviews speak to the area being isolated, but that’s not the case anymore as it's been built up with resorts on each side of the complex, the delicious Castaways Restaurant next door, and all the amenities of Plaza Palmera a short walk up the road. The property itself defies expectations the moment you walk in. It’s right on the beach on the first floor. The patio area is spacious and provides the perfect spot to enjoy a coffee in the morning, read a book in the lounger in the afternoon, or enjoy a cocktail in the evening. Watching the waves and feeling the breeze puts one’s soul at ease. You can go for long walks on the beach in either direction and take a dip here and there. Our kids loved the pool area too, which we'd often have to ourselves. The condo itself is really lovely: clean, well-equipped, spacious, and comfortable. The bedrooms and ensuites were quite large. Having a washer/dryer was a big plus. Kitchen was great...More to say but out of space! Gracias Simeon, Kim, Gustavo, and team. We'll be back!

I always enjoy my time at this condo. It has everything I need. Great to see upgrades to Smart TV's. I used my Netflix in the evenings to watch TV. Furniture is always renewed although I miss my couch, the new outdoor seating is beautiful and very comfortable. I will be back next year!

Wonderful Getaway from Winter
We stayed for 4 nights and enjoyed every minute. The pictures of the condo do not do it justice! Much nicer and spacious in person. Kim made sure that we had everything we wanted and needed during our visit. We would definitely come back!

Peace and tranquility
Amazing stay with clear views of the beach. We found ourselves opening the sliders regularly to hear the soothing sounds of waves. The mart and shopping plaza made it convenient to take full advantage of the kitchen. The 24/7 security team were always helpful and made us feel secure on the property. We are looking forward to returning to this destination. A gem we only wish we could use all year round.

Fake news oder Betrug?
Die Wohnung ist schön, sauber, etwas dunkel. Aber die Bilder lügen! Wir haben die Wohnung gewält, weil wir auf dem Balkon sitzen und die schöne, weite Aussicht durch die Palmen auf das Meer genießen wollten. Ein Schock bei unserer Ankunft: linke Hand vor der Wohnung ist eine Restaurant mit einer vorgelagerten Bar gebaut worden. Der weite Blick ist auf etwa die Hälfte reduziert! Der Lärm hält sich in Grenzen, zumal der heftige Wind (Februar) sehr laut ist. Aber man steht zwangsläufig auf dem Balkon immer unter der Beobachtung der Gäste. Und: Neben dem Balkon sind die vier kleinen Toilettenhäuschen... Besonders ärgerlich ist, dass dieser Zustand schon seit über einem Jahr so ist und der Besitzer die Bilder nicht austauscht. Auf unsere Nachricht hin schrieb er lediglich: die Gäste fänden es gut, dass da nun ein Restaurant in der Nähe ist. Ja, vielleicht, aber muss man dann bewußt falsche Informationen herausgeben. Die Agentur schrieb, dass sie nichts weiter machen könnten; man müsse sich mit dem Besitzer "einigen" und sonst vielleicht "andere Wege" beschreiten. Aber wir wollten uns den Urlaub nicht vollständig verderben lassen.

We understand that expectations drives our decisions when booking a vacation and that pictures, description, and reviews provided by our guests informs this decision process. Unfortunately Mr. Dietmar assumed that he will be renting a condo with a 180 degree view of the ocean and perhaps expected to be vacationing in a remote area. None of our pictures represents that. Our community now has a club restaurant, which is located on the beach to the left of our unit. This is a welcome addition to our community. Our pictures are up-to-date.

Wow, what a house. It is really the best place ever. First, Kim, is remarkable, she came to pick us up on time, she is clear and fast when we ask her for something. The place where we lived was beautiful, the pool is amazing and clean. All the staff that works there are smily. The house is, i must say, the best one we ever had. Situated ON THE BEACH. Not complicate, easy access, a view to dream every day. What we liked the most was the outdoor space. We read outside, just chilled there and ate every meal there. No noise, only the waves. The rooms are big, comfy, the kitchen is great. A mini little oven was useful, but there is no regular oven. The BBQ outside, not useful at all. It doesn't cook. So if you like to BBQ forget about it. We had gallons of water (100 pesos) to drink and the machines gives us hot water. All the utilities to cook were there. There is a plaza where we bought what we forgot but the main grocery was done on the road from the airport. We made a list of what we would eat and we just had to buy some little things at the plaza. At this plaza we had pastry (delicious), ice cream (good) and a pizza (very good). The prices are like at home. There is a lot of security on the site. It is very secure. A funny thing that i didn't realize before going there is that there is a restaurant Castaway's on the site, but it is 5 steps from our house! So convenient if you don't want to cook. The staff is nice, the food is good. We went there for the New Year's eve. Plus, there is a bar with beautiful music too. So we had our little resort just for us. The beach is private, the water was nice, not a lot of sea weed. Some dogs from other owners, nice dogs. The sand is white and soft. The palm trees create shade. We walked every day along the beach. You can discover the other resorts that are crowded...so happy to be where we were. We went to visit the beach of Macao, wow, you have to go there. Amazing beach, it's a must. Then we went to another beach because we had to take our Covid test, Los Corales. Not nice for us. Full of people, full of chairs and resorts...too many people. The beach was awful, full of seaweeds, dirty. Didn't like it. But we had a nice meal at Citrus in the village, it was delicious. We are not far from the airport (40 min). About wi-fi....don't count on that. We had so much problems...even watching Netflix was a challenge. The little wheels turns non stop. Overall i would say Go and enjoy. Thank you KIM xx

If you like roughing it
Pro's: - Very nice secluded beaches that go on for miles - The unit is as about as close to the ocean as you can get anywhere - The host was available and helpful w/ issues encountered The general community was nice (nice pool, lawn areas, and the few other people around were very friendly) - The weather was perfect (late March) Con's - The unit is in an extremely remote/ desolate area and at least an hour from restaurants or grocery stores ($130 cab ride round trip) - The general area was designed for all-inclusive resorts and the local infrastructure does not really support stand-alone rental units - A rental car really is necessary to survive for the week - but local drivers are aggressive and particularly dangerous at night (cars w/no tail lights and motorbikes w/no lights) - The unit's air conditioner had a governor on it set to mid-80 degrees - The unit was dark and somewhat dated inside - The unit had a stove but no oven or functional BBQ

Unqualified Recommendation!
We stayed for three weeks at this fabulous condo and found it to be the perfect place for an extended stay near Punta Cana. We recommend it without reservation. It is just far enough away from the resort crowds to afford a real sense of privacy, almost like having your own home on the beach, yet it’s close enough to the golf, restaurants and other attractions of Bavaro and Punta Cana to make them easily accessible. We rented a car and found it very easy to get around once we had acclimated ourselves. The beachfront location is outstanding as the patio is literally right on the beach front. We spent many mornings and evenings on the comfortable furniture there enjoying the view and the warm breezes. The interior of the condo was neat, clean, well-organized, well-furnished and exactly as pictured on the website. The beach is one of the most beautiful we’ve ever seen and it is cleaned up every day and is uncrowded with plenty of nice chairs available. The community pool is outstanding and also uncrowded with lots of chairs available. The owners of this condo have clearly given a lot of thought as to how to make their guests feel comfortable and well-accommodated as we found that the condo contained all of the things we needed to enhance our stay. The owners were also very helpful and complete in their pre-trip advice to us, which was especially helpful as this was our first trip to the DR. They prepared us well for our stay and were also promptly helpful and responsive when a couple of minor issues arose during our time there. We also felt very safe in this gated community with security at the front gate and on the beach. We are already planning a return visit.

Great apartment, super helpful host!
We had a great stay over Christmas in Virginia's apartment at Las Dunas. Fabulous accommodation, really comfortable beds and great household facilities. Virginia and her husband were so helpful, sorting any issues and answering all our questions, as well as providing really useful advise and directions. There are no grocery shops nearby so do stop in Bravro (on route) if self catering - Jumbo and Super Pola both good and just off the highway! Remember washing up liquid! We found everyone at the apartment complex really friendly and helpful. The grounds and pools were immaculate, our kids (10 and 3 years) had an amazing time. We would totally recommend this place and hope to return some day.

Life on the beach!
This was my second time at the condo and no different than my first. Veronica is a wonderful host as are Remmy who picked me up at the airport and delivered me back on time. WIFI is great. The grounds are well maintained and quite. The condo is spacious and clean. It has plenty of towels and linens, games and books to read. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking. My favourite place is the patio with outdoor couches to waste the day sipping coffee, reading and watching the sun set and rise ... now that's life on the beach!

Thank you Dora! We love having "regulars" who feel like our little slice of paradise is their "home away from home." Can't wait to get your note next year letting us know when you will be scheduling your return.

Quietness at the beach
If you are looking to get away from it all, this is the place. Just make sure to shop before you get here as there really is nothing close by! A car is necessary for restaurant access. Otherwise it is peaceful, breezy and a place where once feels very safe. The owner goes above and beyond to ensure a stress free holiday.

If you really want to unwind, this is the place to do it!
Virginia was easy to work with and was more than eager to answer many questions about the property, area, and activitites prior to our arrival. We really enjoyed relaxing (2 adults and 2 teens) at Las Dunas. As stated this condo is away from the action, which was what we were looking for. It was nice meeting others at the property but having a feeling of home instead of a busy all-inclusive. Renny travel was excellent, very professional. We did encounter a problem during our stay (water leak from the condo above us). Virginia and her husband (owners of our rental) quickly had everything taken care of. They immediately responded to our call and stayed in touch through out the day to make sure everything was resolved. We also enjoyed a wonderful meal cooked in our condo by Chef Eddie and his wife Juana. They were very nice and the food was delicious. The patio on this condo is a wonderful place to relax with a book or drink, always a breeze and listening to the waves was calming. My family would go back! We didn't do any excursions on this trip other than the grocery store twice. Condo was clean and spacious.

A Gem on the Beach!
This condo is exactly as depicted. It is absolutely beautiful. I just returned yesterday after 8 glorious days of sun, the pool, sandy beaches and complete solitude. Lots of security and the beachfront is cleaned up daily. Once a year I travel on my own for a winter vacation and decided to look for something other than all inclusive. VRBO is where I landed. I took one look at this place and said "perfect". I splurged despite the Canadian exchange rate and without regret. Virginia is so helpful and friendly. She even called me when I arrived at the condo. I chose to have a driver pick me up at the airport and take me grocery shopping before settling in at the condo. I can not say enough good things about the great experience at this condo, my dealings with Virginia and Renny Travel who arranged my transportation. Oh I will definitely be back. Who wouldn't! Thank you Dora D

As pictured, use taxi service!
After booking the condo, we decided that it would be less expensive to rent a car than use Renny travel services...Well of coarse we find out in the airport they don't take US insurance so it was almost double the quoted price, Dominican Republic is the 10 worst place to drive in the world, the speed bumps are pretty harsh (scraping bottom of the car), the roads don't have signs, they tend to take you to jail if you're in an accident, and we were told not to give money to the police if pulled over..Given that caveat, take the taxi service that Renny Travel offers..you will have a greater peace of mind and DR is pretty big so many places are too far to drive and you do not want to drive at night. Once at the condo it was as pictured, clean, bathrooms were beautiful, view was awesome, and beaches were not crowded at all, you could walk for miles up and down the coast. We had 30mph winds for 2 days which confined us to stay inside, the sand blew over the short walls in front of the condos so sadly couldn't enjoy the porch, pool or hot tub b/c of the wind and sand. Many big resorts will offer day passes if this happens and will even pick you up, there is a Uvero Alto shopping strip right before you get there where you can pick up a few grocery items and do a little shopping but best to go to the grocery store in punta cana before getting to condo and get everything you need. We enjoyed our stay, it would have been better if we got a taxi and weather was better. Great place for just relaxing with beautiful views!

Perfect relaxation
We wanted a nice place that was close to the beach that would let us take strolls on the beach. We got exactly that! Virginia was a most gracious host making sure everything was just right. This property is right on the beach, looking out on the waves for your morning coffee on the porch and listening to the relaxing sound at night. The pool is especially nice when you don't want sand in between your toes. We did a lot of cooking in the condo and had everything we needed provided. The condo is well protected with around the clock guards who are very friendly. If you want a place to kick back and relax away from the tourist areas, this is the place.

Paradise on earth!!
Unfortunately this place is phenomenal!! If you are looking for a place to totally unwind this is it!! There are no planned activities, no entertainment and no restaurants. But there are 3 Beach Restaurants within walking distance and the grill and kitchen in the condo make for easy meals. We went into town once to eat out and get more groceries. We ate at Noah's and then walked to the grocery store. The restaurant picked us up and brought us back for $40.....cheaper than getting a taxi or driver. You will need water shoes for playing in the water, but for walking the beach its smooth, flat sand! Wonderful! We enjoyed the quiet, peaceful atmosphere and got a lot of reading done! We definitely want to come back!!

Such a gift to be here!
Oh my goodness it was wonderful!!! Thank you so much for sharing your place and allowing us to enjoy such a treasure! Your place is lovely and had everything we needed! It really was a perfect set up for our family. We really bounced between beach and pool all day, along with naps and eating and sleeping :) Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful, the development was so peaceful and well kept. We had a good handful of people come up to us who were walking a long the beach to ask about the place while we were at the beach. Really I can't say enough good things. We will be back for sure! We had great waves the first few days which was fun for boogie boarding, and the last few days the water was more mild so our kids felt brave to swim for long periods of time. I can't get over how beautiful it was there. We had perfect weather every day. We went to the grocery for our food, and grabbed a dinner at Seafood Paradise, and went back for some fresh shrimp to grill at the condo. We had Dayeriana come cook a dominican meal for us, which was amazing. Our kids did awesome, they all want to live there :) Seriously, such a gift to us. Thank you immensely. Will be in touch again.
