Casa della Luna
Description
Casa della Luna appears low and bright against a long sweep of green as you follow the serene curve of a private cul-de-sac surrounded by banyans and royal palms.
This contemporary four-bedroom home, created by renowned architect Gianfranco Fini, feels like a study in light and proportion: glass that draws the eye to the sky beyond and the ninth hole of La Romana Country Club, galleries that welcome the breeze, and planes of stone and wood that cool underfoot. An exquisite driveway, side patios that allude to secret gardens, and a main gallery that ushers you into interiors where each line has a purpose set the tone.
You can tell right away that the house was designed, not just constructed, with high-quality materials chosen for durability and touch as well as the kind of detailing—reveals, alignments, and sightlines—that distinguishes the finest Casa de Campo villas.
Life grows inside without becoming less intimate. With light streaming in from the east, an expansive living and dining area gathers the daylight; custom local pieces and soft furnishings add character without overpowering the architecture. A media room cocoons movie hours and big-match replays on one side, while a library provides quiet for late-night talks and morning pages on the other.
Commercial-grade stainless appliances, a clever prep flow, and serious cold storage make the chef’s kitchen professional by every standard. It’s perfect for a private tasting menu and pancakes following an early round. With a programmable Lutron lighting system that can change from sun-bright to cocktail-warm at a touch, a centralized whole-house soundscape, complete internet, phone, and intercom connectivity, and a custom home theater tuned for true immersion rather than just volume, technology hums at the level you’d expect in a signature home.
The east-facing plan is evident when you open the doors. Tall palms create shifting shade over a spacious deck with a modern swimming pool and bubbling jacuzzi next to a wide, cana-topped gazebo. Trade winds blow in across the fairway, carrying the day at a temperate, salt-bright pace.
Evenings find the terrace with candles and conversation as a few final golfers cross the green below; mornings drift from espresso in the gallery to a swim that unknots travel; and afternoons settle into loungers as the garden warms to gold. With walk-in cedar-lined closets, en suite bathrooms finished in contemporary stone and glass, and outdoor showers that exchange four walls for sky and foliage so even a rinse becomes a small ritual, all four bedrooms read like private pavilions.
The tones remain sun-washed and serene, the furnishings are contemporary without being harsh, and the entire arrangement is grounded in place, open to the air, and tuned to comfort—all characteristics of a wonderful vacation.
Without disturbing the quiet at home, the address keeps resort pleasures delightfully close. The Teeth of the Dog clubhouse and spa are five to ten minutes away by car or golf cart from Minitas Beach and its serene, swimmable water.
The Racquet Center and equestrian facilities are ten to fifteen minutes depending on the hour; Altos de Chavón and Dye Fore are fifteen to twenty minutes above the Río Chavón canyon for stone lanes, galleries, and sunset views; and Casa de Campo Marina, which has provisioning, pharmacy counters, cafés, and waterfront dining, is roughly ten to fifteen minutes away.
For orientation, locate Casa della Luna at roughly 18.41° N, 68.91° W, on the south shore of Casa de Campo, close to Minitas, in the La Romana Country Club belt. The villa can be reached in ten to fifteen minutes from La Romana International Airport (LRM), fifty to sixty minutes from Punta Cana International (PUJ), and seventy-five to ninety minutes from Santo Domingo’s Las Américas (SDQ), depending on traffic. Arrivals are straightforward and fully paved door-to-door.
A private SUV transfer is the simplest way to begin, and once you’re settled in, a golf cart is perfect for beach, tennis, and marina hops. The last one to two kilometers of the resort follow level, clearly marked lanes that are comfortable for any kind of vehicle.
The combination of a Gianfranco Fini lineage and an east-facing, fairway-front location—engineered for breeze, framed for light, and finished with outdoor showers and a technology stack uncommon in private homes—is what ultimately sets Casa della Luna apart from other Casa de Campo villas. The result is a home that is as livable at noon as it is cinematic after dark.
Three things to do in the area
• Swim at Minitas Beach in the morning and then have espresso at the beachside café.
• Teeth of the Dog for front-nine, followed by a lengthy lunch with a view of the ocean.
• Take a stroll through Altos de Chavón during golden hour to see galleries, take in views of the river, and eat in the plaza.
