Ani Dominican Republic

Welcome to the magnificent all-inclusive ÀNI Dominican Republic, a stunning 5-Star 14-bedroom estate located on its private peninsula on the central northern coast of the Dominican Republic. This property is bookable exclusively for one group of guests alone.

ÀNI Private Resort is an exquisite, fully staffed, and serviced waterfront property boasting panoramic views of the ocean and the mountains beyond. Whilst the surrounding area is unspoiled, laid back, and rural, you are still only minutes away from the most beautiful beaches of the Dominican Republic as well as a world-class golf course.

Gourmet dining and exotic adventures are all part of this incredible exclusive experience. Fitness and Wellness facilities, tennis courts, waterslides, children’s activities, and much more are at your disposal from the moment you arrive at this spectacular private retreat.

You can also take a look at the glorious ÀNI Thailand and incredible ÀNI Anguilla.

ÀNI Dominican Republic features 14 suites that are positioned on either side of the property’s palm-lined, central avenue as part of Villa Larimar with its sunrise vistas and west-facing Villa Amber with its additional manmade beach and cobbled path to the sea.

Featuring spacious bedrooms and open-plan bathrooms with vaulted pine ceilings, coconut wood details, and a soothing palette of white, neutral, and sea-hued soft furnishings, the suites all open onto private terraces and/or garden courtyards. Six of the eight Ocean View Suites (two Amber and four Larimar) are completely free-standing, while the remaining suites are housed in two double-story structures. Each of these includes an Ocean View Suite and two Junior Suites (named Ocean or Garden depending on their views) downstairs, along with a shared living room and kitchenette. Upstairs, each double-story structure offers a Bay View Suite.

Each of the two villas has its living and dining areas, so there is plenty of space to relax and enjoy each other’s company. The living rooms are furnished with classic natural tones and comfortable sofas, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the pool and garden. Each villa also has a separate TV room. The dining pavilion in each villa overlooks the swimming pool. Adjoining each dining pavilion is a private café/bar where you can enjoy your all-inclusive meals, snacks, and drinks.

Both villas feature resort-style swimming pools, with Villa Amber also including a waterslide and a separate children’s pool. Other outdoor facilities include a private tennis court, shuffleboard court, and a putting green.

An Event Pavilion at the heart of the property is perfect for hosting events for up to 60 guests making Ani Villas an excellent destination for a small wedding group or an intimate family celebration.
