www.villacelesteestate.com , today announced that the official Grand Opening of its 8 bedroom exclusive property, located in the eco-touristic capital of the Caribbean, Jarabacoa, Dominican Republic will be on November 1, 2013.  This property is the first of its kind to open in the central eco-touristic part of the Dominican Republic. 

Villa Celeste Estate is nestled in the mountains of the central part of the island in a unique and private sector known as the Dominican Alps in the town of Jarabacoa.  Jarabacoa is center stage for eco-active adventure experiences which include whitewater rafting, cannoning, zip lining through waterfalls, hiking, mountain biking, paragliding and many more adventures, but most importantly provides visitors with a more authentic experience of the island, as Villa Celeste Estate owners describe it as a “beyond beach and sun experience” of the Dominican Republic.  This is a win for Villa Celeste Estate because the village of Jarabacoa is creating a buzz as one of the most desired places to experience amongst “hip” travelers who frequent the Caribbean. 

“We are not the typical all-inclusive resort. We don’t feed guests food made for the masses, and expect our guests to stay on our grounds all-day sitting on a beach chair absorbing the sun.”  “Our goal is to have our guests genuinely explore the “real” Dominican Republic from a local perspective”, said David Ortiz, owner of Villa Celeste Estate. “We are far more than a beach and sun destination, we provide our guest with the opportunity to enjoy the eco-tourism of the Island as well as experience a “local” experience of it all.”  No more than 16 people can stay at the Estate at one time, enhancing the guests’ experience of superior service with a personal Dominican touch. 

The architecturally Spanish inspired property is nestled within the mountains of the Dominican Republic.  Upon arrival the tranquility of the landscaped gardens enhance a relaxing ambiance that transports guests to a place of peace.  The Estate’s architectural details of mahogany, cedar, and red ceramic tile design compliment the soft light furniture and white linen drapes that adorn the windows throughout.  The Estate’s 8 exclusive spacious bedrooms include private balcony with views of the mountains, or the property’s tropical palm garden.  Each guestroom is exquisitely decorated with wooden cedar closets, mahogany four poster beds or beautiful upholstered headboards.  At night all guests can expectantly rest on feather down pillows, the finest bed linens, and shade their windows with custom made white cotton draperies.

In addition to the clean and relaxing design and décor, the hotel features a “farm-to-table” daily breakfast for all guests, and a very light “organic” menu throughout the day that can be enjoyed in any of the beautiful Italian style terraces, or the upscale lounge/bar where guests can admire the extraordinary views of the mountains.  Free complimentary Wi-Fi is offered to all guests. 

Villa Celeste Estate is now offering their guests a 4night/5 day “Active Experience Package” that includes daily eco-touristic excursions where guests can stay, experience and enjoy both adventure experiences, local tours, and even visit the island’s best VIP beaches.
