Villa Burbuja

AN ENCHANTING CONSTRUCTION:  Villa Burbuja blends harmoniously with the beauty and colors of the Caribbean tropics in its exclusive enclave within the Punta Cana Resort and Club complex. Offering residents a true home away from home, this treasure is one of only 10 super-private oceanfront villas that have been built close to the marina.  The villa was designed and decorated by renowned Dominican architect Antonio Segundo Imbert, who also conceived masterpieces such as the Cap Cana Beach Club, the Punta Cana Airport, and the home of world-famous singer, Julio Iglesias.  Within the airy and refreshing home, built over a lot of 3,717 square meters, or nearly one acre, a careful blending of tropical architectural elements evokes the signature warmth and happiness of Caribbean culture.  These elements include natural woods, select stone, thatched roofs, high ceilings, spacious rooms, and Asian details such as interior gardens that evoke a sense of balance, relaxation, and well-being.

PERFECT POSITIONING: This completely furnished villa encompasses 929 square meters, or almost 10,000 square feet, and exists in perfect harmony with its exotic, endless-summer surroundings. Set on a single level with an ample wrap-around verandah, like traditional bungalows of the region, the dwelling also offers an impressive infinity-edge swimming pool whose relaxing decks present a paradisiacal vista of the idyllic Caribbean Sea.  The charming gazebo is positioned so that it appears to have emerged from the swimming pool, and the villa’s relaxing ambience pervades over gracious entertaining spots as well as quiet enclaves. Natural materials predominate in the villa—positioned to catch sea breezes and gentle rays of sunshine—and include gleaming wooden walls and floors and coralline stone in the exteriors.

INVITING DETAILS: Five and one half baths, a two-bedroom two-bath staff accommodation, and five family bedrooms with walk-in closets welcome friends, owners, and household help. A stately dining room, an inviting living-room, and a kitchen with walk-in freezer appoint the grand interiors, where a sound system and cable and satellite television provide further luxuries. The surrounding vegetation cradles the home in lush tropical specimens such as uva de playa trees, tropical palms, palm yagrumo, and a variety of exuberant flowers.

PUNTA CANA RESORT: Located at the famous and exotic destination of Punta Cana Beach Resort and Golf, this home is wonderfully sited to enjoy the first P.B. Dye-designed world-class beachfront golf course in the Caribbean.  The La Cana Golf Course is innovative, challenging, beautiful, and fun. Its more than four-mile length includes four superb holes playing directly along the Caribbean Sea and 12 holes with magnificent ocean views. In addition to golf, resort guests and residents enjoy a three-mile stretch of coconut-shaded beaches, off-shore reefs ideal for snorkeling and scuba diving, a full-service marina, a tennis complex with clay-caliche courts, a children’s petting zoo, crystal clear springs, and a nature preserve with tropical foliage.
