Stunning views and architecture to match await at Villa Oceania. Set on an inlet on the coast near Punta Cana, the property lets you enjoy an oceanfront setting with only palm trees for neighbors. Stonework, wood and indoor-outdoor living areas integrate the villa into the landscape. High ceilings, modern furnishings, a full staff and five bedrooms make the interiors an airy, luxurious and spacious retreat for up to ten guests.
Take your morning coffee at the covered outdoor sitting area and check your email via Wi-Fi, then move to a row of lounge chairs on the pool deck or the infinity pool itself. Just beyond the deck is a lawn with a jetted tub and hammocks that leads to a sandy area and dock. Explore the inlet in the villa’s kayaks, keep up with your routine in the fitness center, and finish the day at the al-fresco dining area. Your stay begins with airport transfers and welcome beverages, and a staff of a chef, butler and housekeeper ensures your comfort throughout.
The interiors of Villa Oceania use stone walls, wood floors and paneling and wicker furniture for warm natural texture, while white and cream paint and upholstery add a layer of modern freshness. A vaulted ceiling and a wall open to the outdoor sitting area make the living room bright and airy, and the media room gets a cozier feel from gray tones. Each meal is a special occasion under the dining room’s unique crystal orb chandelier, and the sleek fully equipped kitchen makes even cooking a pleasure.
The five bedrooms at Villa Oceania all have en-suite bathrooms and TVs. The two master suites each have king beds and open to balconies; one has its own al-fresco shower as well. Three other bedrooms have two queen beds each. As in the common areas, the combination of wood, white and wicker in the bedrooms gives them a fresh yet relaxed feel.
