Casa Kimball, Dominican Republic Hotel

Dominican Republic

There are many places where an infinity pool captures our attention but not many of them are private, eight-bedroom villas that jut out across the cliff edge. Enter Casa Kimball – one for those who seek sun-kissed days in ultimate seclusion. On the northern face of the Dominican Republic, close to Playa Grande beach, the luxury villa has uninterrupted Atlantic views, while the building is a masterpiece in design that marries local material with brutalism and indoor-outdoor living. Along with a Jacuzzi and relaxing lounge area, Casa Kimball comes with fully stocked bar, staff that includes a personal chef who sources all ingredients from no more than three hours away. Outside, wander through extensive gardens to find a hidden terrace, vintage fire bowl and private beach. Fill days with local tours to waterfalls and lagoons and evenings with fresh seafood platters and rum mamajuana cocktails.
