FAQS
HOW FAR IS THE VILLA FROM THE AIRPORT?
The villa is a 30-minute drive from Puerto Plata airport; transport can be arranged to pick you up with cash paid directly to the driver (as local law will not allow us to transport guests).
SHOULD I RENT A CAR?
We recommend a car rental, as although the villa is within walking distance of the beach, it can get very hot. A rental car is also an excellent idea for exploring the area, as many activities and sites keep you busy during your stay.
HOW FAR IS THE BEACH?
Cofresi Beach is just under ten minutes' walk. It is down a road with a slight slope, so if small children are in your group, we recommend driving, especially when it is sunny and hot! Sun loungers are available to rent on the beach for approximately 100/150 pesos per lounger (equivalent to around $2).
The beach has some great little restaurants and is very peaceful. It is a perfect spot for a morning coffee, afternoon beer, or a relaxing evening meal.
IS FOOD INCLUDED IN THE RENTAL?
Our villa rental does not include food. Several supermarkets are situated in the centre of Puerto Plata and offer a great selection.
We now offer a free transport service to the supermarkets for those arriving during the day. This allows for a stress-free experience so guests can focus on choosing a perfect menu.
We offer a traditional Dominican meal upon arrival for a fee of USD 10 per person.
DO I NEED TO DO ALL OF THE COOKING?
A cook is provided with the booking and is available from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily. It is customary to prepare the main meal for lunchtime; if you would like to eat a hot meal in the evening, the cook can prepare it for you. Our sample menu features a mixture of American, English, and Dominican cuisine. Vegetarian requirements can also be catered for.
IS THE VILLA FULLY STAFFED?
James Bond Villa has excellent staff who will do their best to ensure you have a relaxing and stress-free vacation. Santa is our friendly, English-speaking villa manager. She has lovely and hard-working locally employed staff to help her during your stay. Carlos is our friendly on-site handyman. You will see him outside most days, working hard to ensure the villa is perfect.
Our staff are very professional and discreet. Your rooms will be cleaned daily, and linens will be changed weekly. Please note that we are happy to wash clothes and personal items only for guests staying one week or more.
Bathrooms are supplied with towels, washcloths, soaps, toilet paper, and a hair dryer if needed.
DO YOU HAVE WIFI?
We now have WiFi throughout the villa.
We also have a Bluetooth speaker in the main living area. Please use it whether you want to boogie in the living room or relax by the pool.
ARE THE BEDROOMS EN-SUITE?
All the bedrooms have ceiling fans, air-conditioning and en-suite bathrooms.
IS THERE ANY SECURITY?
Our night watchman, Santiago, arrives every evening and guards the premises. We also have security cameras at the front of the villa for extra safety. There is a safe in the main bedroom on the ground floor if you need to lock up any valuables. We ask that you lock all windows and doors while away from the villa and at night, as you would in your own home.
ARE CHILDREN ALLOWED?
Children are always welcome! The villa has an indoor and outdoor staircase leading to the pool area and gym, so please bear this in mind when booking with small children. If you need a cot or crib, please message us in advance.
WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS?
Unfortunately, we cannot control the weather! James Bond Villa has a cinema room and hot tub, unlike the other villas in Puerto Plata. The cinema has a variety of films, and it is the perfect time to try out the popcorn machine!
We have a massage table used by our amazingly talented masseuse, Raquel. She also does fantastic manicures and pedicures. Santa can show you her treatment/price list and book a time for her to visit the villa that is convenient for you.
CAN I BRING BACK A GUEST/VISITOR?
We have a strict visitor policy. Only those whose names are on the booking are allowed on the premises. This is for the safety of our guests and staff. Our night watchman, Santiago, will ensure unauthorised guests cannot access the villa.
CAN WE USE THE VILLA FOR AN EVENT/PHOTOSHOOT/FILMING LOCATION?
James Bond Villa can be used for photoshoots, filming and special events. Please message us for a quote with details of your brief.
DO I NEED TO LEAVE A TIP?
As in Canada and the USA, leaving a 10% tip (of the booking total) at the end of your stay is customary. The amount you tip is discretionary, and for excellent service, but please remember the staff work hard to ensure you have a perfect holiday :)
GUEST ACCESS
Guests can access the entire villa except the staff room through the kitchen, which is solely for staff use.
DAY TRIPS/EXCURSIONS Day trips to the safari, waterfalls, and islands are available. Please ask Santa, who can show you the excursion guide and book the trip.
