Meaning “Sea” in the Taino Language, Casa Bagua is an architectural masterpiece, spanning three indoor-outdoor levels cascading gracefully down the hillside and offering a majestic panoramic view overlooking the untouched beauty of Rincón Bay, capturing the wonder of the ocean’s vastness.
The top floor houses the master bedroom, adorned with a live-edge king bed and floor-to-ceiling sliding doors that dissolve the boundaries between indoors and outdoors. The adjoining natural slate indoor-outdoor bathroom with carved wooden sinks creates a sensory connection with the elements. Step onto the covered wraparound veranda, where expansive wooden decks and a cozy hanging chair beckon, inviting you to gaze at the azure ocean expanse below. Beyond, a splendid sun deck offers a setting for lounging, savoring cocktails, relishing in open-air dining, and stargazing.
Descending via a marble-clad staircase, you will discover the second level, home to a fully equipped kitchen, breakfast bar and dining area boasting live-edge elements. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors unveil yet another covered wraparound veranda, revealing panoramic vistas.
Adjacent to this, a flexible space awaits—ideal for relaxation, lounging, or converting into a cozy secondary queen bedroom, complete with an ensuite natural slate bathroom, outdoor shower, and a work desk. A descent to the third level reveals another inviting wooden sun deck, outdoor shower, and an 18-foot infinity pool, adorned with natural slate tiles. Here, you have the opportunity to envelop yourself in calmness, relishing uninterrupted periods while being serenaded by the orchestra of nature.
Wish we could keep this place a secret! Spectacular ocean views from all 3 levels of the villa. Incredibly private and peaceful, a perfect respite from the hubbub of everyday life. The staff was equally spectacular -- kind, responsive, professional, and went above and beyond for us, even arranging a haircut at the villa bc my husband didn't have time to get one before going back to work! Daily housekeeping was a welcome surprise, as it's rarely included in Airbnb rentals. We were so content at the villa, we only left the property 1x in 8 days to walk to a gorgeous private beach, which we had to ourselves. Chef Stefano is a gem -- the house-made food we ordered was so convenient and delicious, incl Dominican dishes. Wifi was very reliable for remote working. They arranged our transport to + from the airport, we didn't need a car. It's not a short drive, but well worth it to reach what felt like a slice of heaven at the edge of the world. :) TY Ocama!
We had the most romantic, relaxing, and beautiful stay at Ocama- The Villas at Rincon Bay for our Valentines celebration. The views from our villa were breathtaking and we got to walk to a different beach everyday. The villa itself was so well designed and comfortable (loved the indoor/outdoor environment). The staff were also very communicative, timely, and accommodating. We will definitely be back!!
Casa Bagua at Ocama Retreat is truly a haven for recharging your batteries. It is one of the best complexes in the area; an inviting villa with tasteful decor, a fantastic kitchen, a refreshing pool, privacy, and tranquility. The highlight, undoubtedly, is the breathtaking view of Rincon Bay, coupled with easy access to Playa del Amor and other stunning beaches just a short hike away. Our hosts were exceptionally welcoming and always just a text away, ready to assist with any questions.
