Villa Tranquila

About this listing

Load the clubs onto the cart in the morning and a short ride from the gate takes you to Teeth of the Dog. Villa Tranquila is in Punta Águila, on a deep palm-shaded garden plot in the western pocket of the resort. The five-bedroom estate sleeps ten, with an included chef handling all the meals.

Back from the round, the open-air pavilion at the centre of the property is where everyone lands. The curved sectionals fill up, drinks come out, and the rest of the day starts there. The pool runs out under a sail-shade canopy. By mid-afternoon someone’s slipped off to the private gym, and two more to the cinema. At sundown the pizza oven fires up under the pergola, and the long alfresco table seats ten. Bold Caribbean art runs through every room, with a different palette behind each door. Stay a few days and the pavilion stops being the place you go to. It’s where you measure the day from.

Teeth of the Dog (ranked the Caribbean’s top course by the World Golf Awards), The Links, and the resort spa all start a short cart ride from the front gate. Minitas Beach is another short ride down for a swim day, and the Marina and Altos de Chavón are an easy drive when it’s time to head out for dinner. Villa Tranquila is the villa to book when the group wants a golfside base with a cinema, a gym, and a pavilion you’ll spend most of the day under.

Frequently Asked Questions

How close is Villa Tranquila to the Casa de Campo golf courses?

Villa Tranquila is a short cart ride from Teeth of the Dog (ranked the Caribbean’s top course by the World Golf Awards), along with The Links and the resort spa, about 1.8 miles from the front gate. Tee times are arranged through the on-site concierge and green fees are paid at the pro shop. The villa works well for golfing groups who play in the morning and come back for the rest of the day on-property. A golf cart can be arranged through the on-site concierge if you don’t already have one on your booking.

What’s special about the pavilion at Villa Tranquila?

The pavilion is a circular open-air sitting room at the centre of the property, with a high cane-domed ceiling and curved white sectionals around turquoise drum tables. It holds the whole group at once and tends to be where pre-dinner drinks and afternoon downtime happen. The seating is modular, so ten guests can spread across clusters or pull together for a single conversation. It’s one of the more distinctive entertaining spaces among the resort’s villas.

Can Villa Tranquila host a private dinner or larger event for our group of ten?

Yes. The covered alfresco dining room seats ten, the outdoor pavilion holds a much larger seated group across its sectionals, and the indoor living-and-dining rooms add another option for cooler evenings. The outdoor BBQ station has a full grill, a sink and a pizza oven set into the stone wall, so the chef can plate either inside or outside. For events beyond the in-villa stay, such as a DJ, florist or a larger guest count, the on-site concierge can arrange additional service through the resort.

Is a chef included, and what kinds of meals does the chef prepare?

Yes. A chef is included, along with a housekeeper and a waiter. The chef prepares all the meals at the villa: breakfast, lunch and dinner, built around what you’d like to eat that day. Dietary requirements such as vegetarian, gluten-free or kid-friendly menus are handled with advance notice. Grocery costs are not included; the on-site concierge can organise a pre-arrival shop or run it day-by-day.
