Very large condo with everything we needed! Older appliances/fixtures but otherwise the unit was fantastic with very spacious en-suite guestrooms all king beds, large kitchen and living rooms and the best outdoor patio! We had a wonderful stay for our family of 4.
The house was great, just like the pictures. Loved the community pool. Also paid to access Ritz amenities, which was wonderful. Was about to golf the East Course and the Sugarcane Course.Definitely would stay here again.
We had a wonderful stay at this lovely and spacious condo. The best part was the amazing terrace where we spent so much time. The host was responsive, efficient and kind. We would stay there again in a flash.
We spent one week in Kim's home over the Christmas holiday. We really enjoyed it. The condo was the perfect size for us and gave everyone plenty of private space. It was clean and cool and convenient. We loved to Rolls golf cart. And the grounds, activities, and restaurants at Dorado were amazing.
The villa was very comfortable and clean. Located in a great area. The hosts were so accommodating and responsive. We really had no reason to need to contact them except for a small TV question. They got back to us immediately. Will definitely come back!
It was a very nice villa overlooking a golf course. The back porch ran the entire length of the building and we spent most of our time there. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils. The villa is locked in a lovely gated community with access to the local country club, provided you are a guest member
We experienced a couple small inconveniences that Host immediately addressed! One of the most lovely places in the world. Home is inside the Ritz Reserve location and for a small fee you can experience a very high level of travel.
I highly recommend this Host.

Great location.
The villa is spacious and well maintained. Large porch is fabulous. Owner gracious and helpful. Villa was probably built in 80's and has not been remodeled. Bathrooms particularly are old style - but clean and usable. We loved the resort and Encanto. ReD fine print about extra cost for club benefits (beach, restaurants, etc).

The design of this villa is great!
Large areas, including the bedrooms and bathrooms, with high cathedral ceilings and lots of natural light and ventilation.
Originally built in the late 80's and remodeled in the year 2001, and yes, although it would be nice to have bathrooms with new contemporary style we take great care on keeping all fixtures in perfect condition and super clean.
We provide to our guests the opportunity to have access to all the resort through our membership but is important to understand that we have zero (0) profit out of this and all charges are handled by the Dorado Beach Club.
Our community is within the 400 acres of the resort and has a pool, jacuzi, tennis court and access to the beach, and in our golf cart guests can ride along all the trails of the reserve. But if our guests want to enjoy all the other amenities the resort has to offer, the Dorado Beach Club temporary membership has to be purchased through our membership.
We strive to provide a memorable stay for our guests and are only a call away.
Welcome!
TL;DR: We would stay here again, in a heartbeat.
In this age of digital retouching gone mad, I can assure you that the pictures are faithful and actually don’t do justice to the tastefully simple, elegant sophistication of the property. It’s a spacious upstairs floor of a villa. Parking and communal pool are right there, very easily accessible. Everything is professionally cleaned and ready for you when you get there. The host was even there when we arrived and even helped us with our luggage (which was excessive because it was our
Even before we arrived, the level of communication and service the host provided was exceptional and professional. All rules, cost and procedures were very clearly communicated and contracts were very reassuring that you’re dealing with
We had a great stay in March 2024. This condo is a great option for enjoying all the amazing amenities at the Dorado Ritz without the hefty price tag. The condo is large, clean, and accommodated our family of 8 well. The kitchen was well stocked- there was even a bottle of wine to greet us! The golf cart is essential for getting around the resort, which is just incredible. It was our first visit to the Caribbean, and it did not disappoint. I would highly recommend getting the Dorado membership with the stay- it is pricey but worth it. You otherwise have a nice tennis court and pool right by the condo, but that is about all you can use in the resort and so would have to find places off resort to explore. We found that the expansive resort had more than enough to keep our kids and teens of all ages busy for our week stay. We were a little worried about the large deposit required for the membership but I will vouch that you do get the unused portion back! :) Thank you Kim for a great stay!
Our 3 bedroom Villa was amazing!! The terrace was insanely large, beautiful and breezy, and the Villa was equipped with everything we could possibly need to have an amazing vacation. Maria met us at the Villa and familiarized us with the area, local restaurants and grocery stores and showed us how to drive our Rolls Royce Golf Cart which was the subject of many conversations among local residents!!! Best vacation EVER!!!!
The property was wonderful - especially the large veranda. Communication with the property managers was excellent and the Ritz property is fabulous! We will be back!
Great unit at a very reasonable price in a spectacular setting. Renting Kim’s unit was very easy. This is a large three bedroom apartment, with a very large deck that overlooks one of the Dorado Beach Resort golf courses. Our family of four had more than enough space as the unit could easily hold between 6-8. The rental comes with a golf cart which is essential for getting around the expansive property and also enhances the fun. Maria, the property manager, is always accessible and happy to help make your stay as good as it can possibly be. We will probably book this again next year! Thanks Kim
Fabulous and well-kept, with beautiful furniture. Cool and Comfortable and the location so close to a great beach was excellent. Perfect for all of us!
We very much enjoyed this clean and convenient home during our stay. It is very well equipped, and we enjoyed the club membership, golf cart, and waterpark facilities. The beach at the Encanto club is great, very shallow and never rough. Thank you to the staff at the home and the club for a great experience!
Our family of 6 had a great stay here for a long weekend. Maria was excellent getting us checked in and even helping to stock the fridge with some basics for us--good fruit, vegetables, milk, etc. We paid her for the groceries and her time. House was clean and ready to go. The golf cart worked great. Wifi worked great. Bug huge outside porch was lovely outdoor space. We got the short term rental so we could use the beach and waterpark for the kids. All in all, a great stay and we will return soon! Thank you.
We could not have asked for a better experience. Communication and coordination for the check-in process was easy and straightforward. The villa was clean, spacious, and in the perfect location a short golf cart ride between the Ritz Carlton Reserve hotel and the golf clubhouse with adjacent restaurants and water park. Hotel pool (Encanto) and Water Mill water park are accessible with a temporary membership. Overall an amazing experience with no complaints, looking forward to returning!
La casa es muy cómoda para una familia de 8 personas. Ya la habíamos alquilado anteriormente pero esta vez la encontramos muy bien equipada con todo lo necesario para pasarla bien, sobre todo en la cocina tiene hermosas copas, buenas ollas, vajillas, manteles etc. María, la persona encargada fue muy amable y diligente, agradecemos mucho la estadía y regresaremos Dios mediante, gracias.
Right away felt like home...perfection in every detail, makes you focus in relaxing and enjoying your vacation...
I did ....and hope to come back soon!
From beginning to end, we had a wonderful experience. We felt very secure while staying there. And, the place is absolutely tranquil and serene. Beds were very comfortable to sleep in and the condo was very clean and warmly decorated with an air of Spaniard culture. Both Kim and Maria- Kim’s assistant, were responsive and very attentive to our needs and safety.
The resort is stunning, especially the beach and pool area at el encanto.
We will definitely return very soon!!!
