Full listing description

Located in a residential area of Las Galeras, just 1.2 km from Las Galeras beach, El Castillo, with its thick walls, Italian terracotta floors, exposed beams and battlemented tower, is a faithful reconstruction of a medieval castle. The castle has 4 elegantly decorated bedrooms, each with a private bathroom, living room, terrace with sea views and a shared kitchen. Staying at this property lets you enter the atmosphere of medieval times while remaining in the Caribbean. The materials used in construction are natural, part of the transformation of the land, such as exposed stone, typical of the area, terracotta laid on all floors and on internal and external ceilings, sourced from the kilns of Santiago, and the enormous wooden beams present in every room, taken from the surrounding forests, handcrafted by local shipbuilders about 100 years ago and recovered from old buildings. Coralline marble, a wonderful whitish stone that forms part of the sea floor now raised above water, found in many places on the island, with fossils inside and in many cases visible after installation, used in wall cladding and bathroom floors. Italian glass mosaics cover the shower walls, and trompe-l'oeil decorations were painted by an Italian artist. The copper and wrought-iron lamps were handmade by the expert craftsmanship of El Artístico, a well-known company producing artistic copper and iron works in La Romana. The nearest beach, one of the most beautiful in the country, is accessible on foot in 5 minutes and is El Aserradero, a pearl of the Dominican Republic. The property is currently operated as a bed & breakfast. The bed & breakfast has a terrace and a tropical garden with spectacular views of the Bay of Las Galeras. The nearest airport is Samaná El Catey International Airport, 58 km away.
