🍳 Your private chef prepares beautifully made breakfasts and lunches, just the way you like them. You simply cover the cost of groceries—they’ll even help you handpick the freshest local ingredients.
🧑💼 Full-time butler service with Jean Pierre, who seriously takes care of everything from delivering morning coffee to mixing sunset cocktails… and somehow knows what you need before you do
🏡 Five totally separate bungalows with different vibes and sizes, so everyone gets their own space but can still hang together in the common areas when you want
🌊 That incredible oceanfront setting with the pool overlooking the water, plus the beach just a quick 5-minute walk away (perfect for morning swims or sunset strolls)
✨ All those little extras that make a huge difference – outdoor showers under the stars, hammocks everywhere, the yoga deck right on the water, and honestly, the kind of stargazing that makes you forget cities exist
Why This Spot in the Dominican Republic is Special
Cabrera isn’t full of tourists taking selfies – it’s the real Dominican Republic where locals still say hello and nobody rushes.
The beaches? Clear blue water that stays warm all year – about 80-84°F even in winter. Just a 5-minute walk from the property, you’ll find Playa Miguelito, where you might be the only person there all day. The sand feels just right between your toes, and the water gets deep slowly, making it perfect for swimming.
Want more action? Pinal de Baoba is 5 minutes by car with food stands serving fresh fish and cold beers. On Fridays, local people sometimes play music as the sun sets.
What I love most is how this place sits right between adventure and total relaxation. One day you’re hiking through forests where the air feels fresh and full of life, the next you’re laying in a
hammock watching birds dive for fish.
Nearby you can find waterfalls (45 minutes away), caves (a day trip by boat), and secret swimming spots that tourists don’t know about.

Nicole
“Beautiful place, it is an oasis facing the sea, the whole place is even more beautiful than in the photos, I would define it as a paradise of disconnection, the house is more equipped and prepared than we imagined, the experience is totally different to any other accommodation, I recommend living this experience! But the best thing about our stay was Jean Pierre, made us feel at home, pampered, cared for and looked after us 24/7, they welcomed us with fruits, sweets and coconuts, we felt very special. I hope to be back soon!☺️“
Dennis

Michael the host was quick to respond to any questions we had, he was very attentive and accommodating. As well as his staff, Nati and Leo which made us feel so welcomed. just an all around great experience, I give it an A++ in every aspect and we will be returning. one last thing we were all in agreement at how affordable it was. Such a beautiful country and what a gem we found in it!”
The Best Things About Cabrera
This isn’t like Cabrera with its big resorts and gift shops. Nagua shows you the real Dominican Republic – where fishermen bring their catch to local restaurants, where music plays from open windows, and where life moves at a slower pace.
Check our calendar for available dates and reserve your stay at Casa Taina today. We recommend booking 3-4 weeks in advance, especially for November-April visits, and we’re happy to answer any questions about the property or your Dominican Republic vacation.
Massages and Car service are available upon request.
Your Perfect Day at Casa Taina
Morning starts slowly – the way it should on vacation. You wake up naturally to sunlight coming through palm leaves and the sound of waves. No alarm clocks needed.
The chef is already in the kitchen, preparing breakfast with ingredients so fresh they barely made it through the door—think mashed plantains, eggs from a nearby farm (or, if we’re lucky, our own hens), fruit picked just yesterday, and rich Dominican coffee that might just ruin your usual brew back home. Groceries are supplied by you, and the chef takes care of the rest.
You drink your coffee on your private porch while watching the sunrise over the ocean. You
might even spot dolphins from the yoga deck during your morning stretch – they swim by often between November and March.

“This place was a dream. From the fresh coconut water on arrival, I knew we were going to have a memorable experience. The staff was very welcoming and accommodating. Fresh meals prepped everyday was a great way to really soak in every moment at the property. I’ve never stayed at such an interesting and hand crafted property. Every nook and cranny was intentional from the plants to the decor. Each bungalow offered something unique and charming. The beds were insanely comfortable, or if you prefer outdoor sleeping, hammocks were hanging outside of each bedroom. I absolutely loved the outside showers. I’ve never experienced that before but there’s something special about bathing under moonlight with plants surrounding you that makes for a magical experience. The nearby beach was a pleasant walk (about 10-15 minutes) and was spectacular. It was very private & peaceful with crystal clear water and clean sand. I would 100% revisit Casa Taina and recommend it to friends & family!”
What Having a Butler & Chef Really Means for Your Vacation
Most people go on vacation—but it still feels like work. You’re cooking. You’re cleaning. You’re piecing together plans and figuring things out as you go. Casa Taina turns that on its head. You wake up to a beautiful breakfast, already waiting for you. You come back from the beach, and lunch is freshly prepared.
Not sure how to spend your day? Your butler has seamless recommendations.
Curious about a local fruit you’ve never seen before? The chef will slice it, tell you its name, and show you exactly how it’s enjoyed on the island even better.
Your private chef makes every meal to your liking—you just cover the groceries, and they’ll guide you to the freshest local picks.
Not a Hotel, But Your Own Beach Compound
Casa Taina isn’t for everyone. If you need room service at 3am or towels folded into animal shapes, look elsewhere. If you want a sterile resort where everything feels like home, this isn’t your spot.
But if you want to remember what vacation should feel like – that perfect mix of adventure and doing nothing – this place delivers. Five unique bungalows, ocean right there, staff that feel like friends, and enough space to be social or disappear for hours.
What you won’t find: TVs in rooms, staff in uniforms, or buffet lines.
What you will find: Star-filled skies, waves lulling you to sleep, and the space to remember who you are when you’re not rushing through life.
Who Will Love It Here
Friend Groups
Friends can take over all five bungalows like their own private resort. Each person gets their own space, but the shared areas bring everyone together.
Families
Families with older kids love the setup. Parents get their space while teens get their own bungalows (and actually want to hang out). Grandparents can have the bungalow closest to the main house.
There’s enough to do to keep everyone happy but enough space so you’re not on top of each other. Kids can explore safely, parents can actually relax knowing staff are keeping watch, and different generations can find their own rhythm while still sharing meals.
Couples Trips
Couples trips work really well here – each couple gets their own bungalow but shares meals and sunset drinks. It’s like having private hotel rooms with the fun of a shared vacation home.
Each couple can do their own thing – adventure-filled days or just lounging by the pool. Then come together for shared meals and memories.
Wellness Groups
The yoga deck and peaceful setting make Casa Taina perfect for small wellness retreats. The separate bungalows give personal space while common areas work for group activities.
The chef can make special diets from vegan to paleo. Jean Pierre can bring in massage therapists. And the sound of waves and birds creates the perfect backdrop for meditation.
