Walk-to-Beach Villa with Independent Studios in Encuentro, Cabarete

A Flexible Beachside Property Designed for Living & Income

Located within a secure gated community near Playa Encuentro, this walk-to-beach villa in Rencontre offers a rare combination of private residential living and built-in rental flexibility. Set on approximately 924 m² of land, the property combines a spacious main residence with two fully independent studio units, creating a layout well suited for full-time living, vacation use, or income-generating ownership.

Surrounded by tropical greenery and positioned just minutes from the beach, the home captures the relaxed rhythm that defines Encuentro—private, residential, and deeply connected to the outdoor lifestyle of Cabarete’s North Coast.

A Home Designed Around Outdoor Living

The main villa unfolds through generous indoor and outdoor living spaces designed for comfort and ease. Spacious living and dining areas connect naturally with multiple terraces and balconies, while the private garden and pool area create an atmosphere centered around outdoor living.

A covered terrace and summer kitchen extend the functionality of the home, making the property equally suited for quiet everyday living or entertaining guests. The layout balances openness and privacy, allowing different areas of the home to feel connected without sacrificing comfort.

Inside, the villa includes a fully equipped kitchen, laundry room, service area, and five bedrooms supported by 5 full bathrooms and 1 half bathroom.
