Casa de Campo®'s most exclusive oceanfront enclave
Punta Minitas · Casa de Campo®

Punta Minitas. The peninsula at the top of the market.

A private headland at Casa de Campo®’s southern coast, walled by ocean on three sides. The largest oceanfront lots in the resort, the tightest inventory, the highest pricing — and a buyer market that runs almost entirely off-market.

What Sets It Apart

What defines this corner of Casa de Campo®

Punta Minitas, Casa de Campo®
  1. True oceanfront — on three sides

    Other neighborhoods at Casa de Campo® have ocean views. Punta Minitas has ocean. The peninsula is walled by Caribbean Sea on three sides — there is no equivalent geography anywhere else inside the gates.
  2. The largest lots in the resort

    4,000 – 12,000 m² (43,000 – 129,000 sq ft) is typical. Some compounds are larger. Enough land for main house, guest house, staff quarters, pool pavilion, tennis court — and garden between them. That kind of scale simply doesn't exist anywhere else inside the resort.
  3. An off-market reality

    Most Punta Minitas transactions don't hit the public market. Sellers — often well-known families — protect interior photography and privacy. Buyers come pre-qualified through trusted intermediaries. The whole market works agent-to-agent, by introduction.

How to Buy Here

Three mechanics specific to Punta Minitas.

Off-market introductions, not listings

Public listings will show you maybe a third of what's actually for sale on the peninsula. The rest moves agent-to-agent. We make the introductions, brief sellers' representatives directly, and surface what's quietly available within your specific brief.

References and proof of funds come early

Sellers protect privacy with screening. Before a tour is arranged, expect to share references, bank or attorney letters confirming capacity, and a clear statement of intent. This is standard at this end of the market — not personal.

Curated walkthroughs, two or three properties

Rather than showing you the entire peninsula, we narrow to the two or three estates that actually match. Tours are coordinated with the owner's team, often with the seller present for the most discreet properties. Plan one full day on the ground.
Frequently Asked

Punta Minitas — candidly.

Why is nothing listed publicly?

Privacy is the operating principle on Punta Minitas. Sellers — often well-known families — don’t want photos of their interiors circulating on the open market, and they don’t want speculative buyers walking their property. The whole market works through trusted intermediaries.

How tight is the inventory really?

At any given time there are usually 3 – 8 villas quietly for sale on the peninsula. Maybe 1 – 2 lots. That’s it. Some quarters, nothing changes hands. Patience matters.

What are the annual owner fees?

Owners pay annual community (HOA) dues that scale with lot size and cover private security, road maintenance and common areas; resort amenity access is a separate membership. Contact us for current figures on any specific estate.

Is the rental income meaningful?

It depends on the villa and on how much the owner uses it; many owners block their calendars for personal use. Contact us and we can model the options for any specific villa before you buy.

How does Punta Minitas compare to Punta Aguila?

Both are top-of-market peninsulas at Casa de Campo®. Punta Minitas is the older, more established address — larger lots, more compound-scale estates, deeper privacy culture. Punta Aguila is a newer development with newer architecture and slightly tighter lots. The choice often comes down to taste: classic Caribbean restraint (Minitas) vs. contemporary new-build (Aguila).

Can a foreigner buy in Punta Minitas?

Yes. The Dominican Republic places no restrictions on foreign property ownership. You buy in your own name or through a DR holding company if it makes tax sense. CONFOTUR incentives apply only to specific certified projects; most resale villas on Punta Minitas are not CONFOTUR-eligible.

How big are the lots on Punta Minitas?

Lots of 4,000–12,000 m² (43,000–129,000 sq ft) are typical, and some compounds are larger.

What does a villa on Punta Minitas cost?

Most sales on the peninsula happen off-market, so ask us what is quietly available, along with asking prices and recent closed sales.
