If you are in search of a beautiful vacation apartment, this spacious 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom condo offers you the most stunning panoramic views of Samaná Bay in a friendly, secure residential community. This beautifully decorated, fully furnished penthouse unit is on the fourth and fifth floors of a low-rise condo building near the main hotel building in this luxury community. Accessed by an elevator as well as stairs, you enter on the fourth floor into a large, bright living and dining room featuring a comfortable couch and chaise set, and solid wood dining table. On the patio, you can sit and enjoy your breakfast overlooking both the ocean and pools. A spacious u-shaped kitchen is open to the living area, and has a stove top, oven, double sink, lots of counter space and plenty of cupboards. It is ideal for both cooking and entertaining! This level also features two bedrooms, both beautifully and uniquely decorated, one of which opens out onto the patio, with its own furniture for lounging. The second floor features the third bedroom, opening up into a huge space that can be set up for a living room, play area, or additional sleeping set-up, whatever you desire. There is a washroom with shower on this floor, as well as a lockable closet where you can store valuables and keepsakes, if you decide to rent it out, and its own patio overlooking the bay. Featured throughout is central air-conditioning, fans in all bedrooms and patio, and durable travertine floor tiles. There are two covered parking spaces on the ground floor, under the condo building itself. Fees are $800 USD monthly and cover pool maintenance, security, gas and garbage. This planned community features a hotel right on the waterfront surrounded by low-rise condos, with villas and townhouses built into the sloping hills behind. On site, you will find bars, restaurants, a convenience store, tennis courts, fitness center, spa, and multiple swimming pools, along with the only full-service marina in the area. The administration will offer to manage and rent your condo for you when you are not using it. If you get tired of swimming and sunbathing by the multiple pools, the closest beach is less than a 15-minute drive, in the town of Santa Bárbara de Samaná (often referred to simply as Samaná) where you'll also find numerous stores, restaurants and a pretty malecon along the waterfront. Palm trees and brightly coloured fishing boats dot the coast all along the Samaná Peninsula, a mountainous region with lush jungle and waterfalls. Take a scenic drive to the north east and you'll discover the stunning white sand beach of Playa Rincon, often rated as one of the top 10 beaches in the world. To the north west, is the town of Las Terrenas, known for its own miles of undeveloped beaches, and El Limon, known for its beautiful waterfall. Popular local activities include whale-watching, boating, snorkeling, fishing, horseback riding, and ziplining. It's only a 50 minute drive to El Catey Samana International Airport, about 3 hours to Santo Domingo, and 4 hours to Sosua and Puerto Plata. Beach 6.4 Km
