About this property

Ocean Front Condo In Down Town Location

Built in 2004, La Puntilla de Rosa was the first Victorian-styled, oceanfront Condominium built on the North Coast. The open concept design, focusing on the stunning ocean view, made for a winning combination. Natural luxurious finishes accentuates the design and harmonizes with the surroundings.
This tropical resort is the residential area with most green areas on the north coast of our island. Building density is very low. Protecting the ecological equilibrium, more than 20 different kinds of birds, among them parrots and hummingbirds, are at home here. This apartment has unobstructed ocean views, mountain views and beautiful palm groves. A gated entrance to the residential area guarantees complete privacy.

Absolutely fantastic property!!!

My husband and I stayed here with our two children. The property exceeded our expectations. The property manager is very easy to communicate with. The apartment is very spacious, clean and upgraded. The pool area is amazing and the view is breathtaking. I absolutely give this place 5 stars. Thanks for an excellent time!

Buena Vista

Large two bedroom with security and parking steps from front door. It is right turn before hotel at end of street. No stairs to entry. Walking distance to everything you need. Very peaceful rear yard. The pool was well maintained and water temperature is comfortable because it is shallow. The view is better than the pictures and the condo will probably be larger than you expect.

Great location

Overall this place was stunning. The balcony looks over a cliff and there is a pool. Playa Alicia is within view as are the numerous boats coming in and out of Sosua port / bay. Some of the boats can be quite loud and there are often fireworks at night on Alicia. sosua beach is a bit closer but busier and more hectic . Playa alicia is abt a 5/10 minute walk. The apartment itself could use a little love. Overall it’s nice but there are a number of appliances that don’t work. The dishwasher didn’t work as well as the air conditioner in the living room. The master bathroom water wasn’t very hot and the bathtub leaked. Overall would recommend this place but it could use a little love.

Excellent stay, start to finish

From the moment I started planning our Sosua trip, I knew I was going to book with Thomas and Yojaira. Their quick replies to my questions made me feel confident. That, along with the photos, made my decision an easy one. Even throughout the stay, when I had minor questions, Thomas replied within minutes. They sent their driver to the airport to pick us up, for the same price as a taxi. Fast service! Yojaira met us at the condo and we were blown away when we walked in. The photos do not do the place justice. It is way bigger, fresher, cleaner than I anticipated. The huge patio and french doors from bedroom offered the most amazing views. Kitchen was fully stocked, full size appliances, although we chose to eat every meal out as the main downtown area was maybe 5/10 min walk and offers tons of options. The beaches, Alicia and Sosua, were equidistant (7 mins). They offer the option of paying for maid service, but since the place was so clean when we checked in, we didn't feel the need. When it came time to check out, Yojaira met us promptly at our arranged time, did a quick figuring out of electricity use and gave us the refund from our electricity deposit in US dollars. I had asked for their driver to take us back to the aiport, but Yojaira drove us herself. We travel a lot, and this was one of the best experiences we have encountered. Looking forward to next time! Thanks so much!!! Jayne & Steve, Seattle

Best View Ever

Thomas and Yojaira are the best people to work with. They arranged airport transportation and let us check in early. Every time we had any issue they were quick to resolve it. They even got an air conditioner repair man for us on the weekend when the unit went out in the 2nd bedroom. The unit was lovely but the furniture could be a bit more "butt" friendly. It's outdoor wicker furniture with cushions so it wasn't super comfy. The kitchen was pretty well equipped but could use some bowls to store things in. We cooked in some and could have used something for leftovers. The beds were a little firm for my liking but not unbearable. I enjoyed getting up early in the morning and just sitting on the patio watching the birds and looking out over the ocean. It's so beautiful and peaceful there. Groceries and beaches were a short and enjoyable 5 minute walk. We always felt very safe there. This was a much better trip than when we stayed at an A/I in punta cana. If anyone tried to sell you a snorkeling adventure to Paradise Island, be aware that you are going to spend 3 hours one way-on a nice bus. The island is fun and the snorkel ing is fantastic but we were told it was an hour drive-You've been warned! Go Horseback riding at Rancho El Contento. They have great horses and we even ran them on the beach. The owner nurses rescue horses back to health. Ute is so sweet. When we come back to DR, we would definitely love to stay at this property again.

Thank you so much for your nice review. You had a good time, one could tell ;-) There are plenty of things to do still which I have not seen on your schedule. Dom. Republic is one of the places where you never pass a dull moment. So when you come back let me know and I point out some cool things to do around here. I have a sheer endless list. Regarding the furniture in the home we will have an important upgrade this year and will change the living room furniture for something real comfortable seating arrangement. We will also stock up on other items as the kitchen bowls and such. If I have not mentioned it yet, we would love to see you back here. Sunny regards from Sosua.

Hidden gem

This was my first visit to this part of the Dominican Republic and staying in El-Batey. Everything was so nice that there was no need for me to contact Yojaira the security guards provided me with any information and translations I needed. If your looking for a beyond nice place to stay which is safe, clean, peaceful and a prime location I highly recommend you look no further. I really want to keep this location to myself but that wouldn’t be fair to the host one thing is certain I will be back sooner than later and pray this condo is available.

Incredible view and location

Wonderful 2week stay at La Rosa Puntilla! Location could not be better. Incredible views, between 2 great beaches ( one for lots of activities, one for a quieter experience). Walking distance to everything including a supermarket, restaurants, beaches and banks. We had a car for daily adventures like the monkey jungle ( highly recommend) , Wilson’s Restaurant, The Seahorse Restaurant. The condo itself was a great setup for us. Could use some maintenance as we had issues with the shower heads ( hubby fixed one of them ) and the tub had a huge crack in it. I pointed these out so hopefully they’ll fix them up. All in all great value for such an incredible location!! We will be going back for sure!!!

Even better than what you expect

First of all, Yojaira is an excellent amazing manager. Any little issue I had, she would fix it that same day or send someone to. She was so welcoming, made me feel very safe (solo woman traveler) and made sure I could count on her. She is the sweetest. The appartment has everything you are looking for. But the most majestic thing about it is the view. Waking up everyday to that view and being in this safe place made me never wanting to leave. I felt so much like home that I am already looking at my next time going to Sosua. And for sure, I will call Yojaira to book with her. I have been to Sosua for 10+ years, many times a year. I have rented all over the city and bit further but no experience compares to this one I just lived. Thank you Yojaira for being part of my journey.

Sosua Hidden Gem

Absolutely perfect for travelers who don’t want the resort scene. Safe condos tucked off the beaten path close to Playa Alicia and Playa Sosua. Discovered excellent snorkeling off beach at Playa Sosua and huge waves at Playa Alicia. Great to have full kitchen for hosting lunch with traveling companions. Walked to town for dinner at different restaurant each night. Owners easy to communicate with before and during the trip. No surprises, very clean, can’t wait to go back!!

Perfect spot!

The location of this condo is perfect - on a quiet street with a 10 minute walk to beaches, restaurants and markets. The view is amazing and the grounds are well kept. The kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, pots, pans, coffee maker and kettle and there were lots of towels for use. Having the use of the washer and dryer came in handy as well. Yojaira and her son Connor met us on arrival and they were very accommodating, allowing us to stay a couple of hours beyond checkout because our flight was later in the afternoon. We spent a week in this beautiful condo and enjoyed it immensely - we will definitely go back!

Stunning Views, Fantastic Location

My wife and I just returned from spending two weeks at this property and could not be happier for the decision we made to rent here. The photos and description don't do justice to the panoramic ocean views from the master bedroom and huge covered balcony. The condo is located on a very quiet street between two beaches and literally is with in a 5 min walk to supermarkets, shops, restaurants, Sosua's night life and the beaches. The two bedrooms are on opposite ends of the condo which provides a good level of privacy and the furnishings were comfortable and clean. We have stayed in several other condos in the area but this one is on the top of our list for our future return visits. Thomas and Yojaira were a pleasure to deal with and made the whole process very easy, even though we had no issues during our stay and had no reason to call them once. If your lucky enough to book this place you'll not be disappointed. Mike and Deborah MacKenzie Nova Scotia, Canada

Best kept secret in Sosua

We had been to POP and Sosua many times over the years, but this was our first visit to this condo. We have never stayed anywhere that gave us such tremendous access to amenities, the beach and town; everything is mere steps away and yet we had a great deal of privacy. The condo was clean and well appointed; we lacked for nothing, and the sights and sounds of the ocean right there in front of us is going to keep us returning here. We have found our ultimate home away from home! Thank you Thomas for making our first stay special; no wonder it is booked all the time!

Great Family Vacation

Our first trip to the DR was really special. The weather is perfect, sunny and nice and warm. We weren't sure what to expect but when we arrived at this property we were amazed at how beautiful it was, the views were amazing from the our deck, pool and bedroom. There was always a nice breeze and besides the beach and pool the house is just a short walk from the town of Sosua. The people are so friendly and always smiling and the food was great. For our small family the apartment was perfect, we could walk to the grocery store and cook a meal if we wanted or walk to a one of the great restaurants in town. There was snorkeling, horse back riding is a must or just hang out at the pool which we did everyday. The apartment had all we needed, clean and comfortable. There is such a variety of people and everyone wants to talk and share their experience. We met folks from all over Europe and North America. The on site staff were all helpful and willing to help if asked. We found it to be exactly what was described, Thomas was a great resource for us if we needed him. Our first experience in the DR couldn't have been better and we always had a great place to return to every night. Our 9 year old son had a blast and we will learn Spanish before our next visit. We went to North Coast Diving and found the staff to be very attentive and the water is so warm, our favorite trip was Rancho Lobo Gris for a full day of horseback riding up in the mountains and don't forget Ocean World in Puerto Plata. Transportation to all excursions was provided. Sosua is a really nice town, small and intimate. You have to visit; you will fall in love with the country and it's people. Thank you again Thomas.
