GUEST REVIEWS

“Our stay at Lifestyle was as near a perfect vacation get-away as we could have dreamed into existence!

In fact, we are still having that recurring dream… Waking up to the sunrise and heading down to dip our toes into the sand and surf, stopping for our daily decadent Viennese coffee and arriving back at “our Villa” just in time to greet our lovely Dominican chef was a treat!  Making us a personal feast each morning we desired was just the first pearl on a string of perfect days! Having golf cart wheels at our disposal allowed us the freedom to not only take in all the sights and sounds of this gorgeous resort, but to pick and choose our best beach spots each morning, and our favourite restaurants each evening, (although we most enjoyed having our personal chefs cook for us on our own back patio and pool area!)

We loved the privacy of a luxury Villa, but positioned in the midst of all the resort amenities; the best of both worlds! It really didn’t take long for us to be zipping along and waving at our newest friends along every route we took. Long lazy afternoons reading and napping under beach cabanas interspersed with leisurely strolls searching for shells and seaglass and munching Mahi-mahi tacos… bliss! Evenings would find us laughing and clapping along at a stage show, And then rolling back to our Villa where we slid happily into the cools of our own private pool and jacuzzi.

Perfect bedding, perfect lighting, more food and drinks than anyone needs in a day, and we were ready to wake up and do it all again!”

“We had the opportunity to spend the most luxurious week at Casa con Vista A La Montaña in October.

The weather was great,  which made swimming and floating in the large pool in the secluded back yard one of our favorite things to do! We loved how the flowers and shrubbery are all beautiful native species. They made us feel like we were in an oasis! There's a large BBQ area where we could have made to order dinners served right there. It was also a great place to have friends come over and chill with us. The view of the mountain, whether in the pool or in the house, was so serene and so beautiful. 

The house itself was a dream in itself. 4 bedrooms, each with a huge ensuite bathroom, were so tastefully, yet colorfully, decorated, it was hard to decide which one would be ours! 3 of the bedrooms are upstairs, all with spacious balconies were where we enjoyed our morning coffee, our afternoon beverages,  and/or our evening nightcap.  Although there were 4 couples staying there, we never felt crowded. There's plenty of space to spread out and relax. The kitchen is a chef's dream,  although dinner at the various gourmet restaurants prevented us from doing much more than blending lots of tropical drinks. The dining room table is hand crafted and was the perfect place to have our daily chef prepared breakfast- if we didn't want to sit outside on the spacious veranda to enjoy the glorious mountain view! (There's a great conversation area in the veranda with comfortable seating where we would often sit and play cards or just sit back and relax.) The large, open concept of the main living area has  comfy seating and aTV where you can relax  if you feel the need to get out of the sunshine!

We loved taking a walk around the neighborhood every day. We could go get a coffee and fresh baked goodie before or after a great game of pickleball.  It was also fun just to walk all over and see the resort as a whole. We were also provided with a golf cart to use if we didn't feel like walking- like in the evening when we were going to dinner. We also used the cart when we went to one of the beaches,  where we would meet up with friends from around the world, often times enjoying lunch on the beach itself or one of the more casual restaurants just steps away. 

We vacation at LHVC regularly, and this is definitely our favorite villa! We look forward to stayng there again soon!”
