Cap Cana is a gated community on the eastern coast, known for its marina, Punta Espada golf, and a measured sense of privacy. The Privée Collection hosts private residences here for those who want seclusion close to the water.
Concierge, daily housekeeping, and provisioning before arrival; dining at the marina and tee times at Punta Espada arranged; transport handled through trusted providers. The community's privacy is matched by the residence's own.
The marina's restaurants and the Juanillo beaches sit minutes from the residences, with boats and tee times held in advance. Days run at your pace, and evenings return to a residence that is yours alone.

On an oceanfront point at Eden Roc, with seating over the water beneath an open palapa roof. Fish and seafood led: sushi, ceviche, handmade gnocchi and pasta.

Playa Juanillo, Cap Cana, Punta Cana 23000
Cap Cana's beach: a crescent of white sand, calm and shallow, backed by palms and held inside the gates. Every beach in the Dominican Republic is public by law, but access here runs through the Cap Cana gate, which keeps it far quieter than Bávaro.

Cap Cana, Punta Cana
An adventure park in limestone country inside Cap Cana, connected by trails. Hoyo Azul, a turquoise cenote at the foot of a cliff, is the centrepiece, with a cave swim, the Iguabonita dry cave, ziplines, the Saltos Azules waterfall and a coastal cruise with snorkelling. It is a commercial park and busy at peak hours. The Juanillo tier, which includes beach club access, is the version worth taking.
