Caribbean Luxury Homes, Hotels and Land for Sale

LH 001 ROCOKI, Most luxury development in Caribbean  BACK HOME description: Strategically located just over 18 miles from Punta Cana International Airport on the scenic eastern coast of the Dominican Republic , Roco Ki features a white sand beach of exceptional quality and fineness, formed from the residues of shells and mother-of-pearl. UNESCO has rated the site among the best beaches in the world and its long, uninterrupted beach with swimable turquoise waters is regarded as among the most spectacular in the country. Roco Ki is a master planned community on nearly 2,700 acres, and upon opening the Roco Ki brand will be synonymous with luxury and will be a luxury destination in its own right. In addition to the luxury Westin property, Roco Ki has under consideration other luxury operators such as Fairmont Hotels and Resorts, St. Regis, and a major international casino operator. Once finished, the community will be one of the largest luxury destinations in the Caribbean and envisions up to 8 luxury hotels, branded condominiums, a 360-slip marina, an equestrian center, a Nick Faldo 18 hole championship golf course, conservation areas, and a state of the art sports training complex. As part of the master planning for the entire project, the low density of the community design allows large conservation areas and lagoons in addition to the open areas of the golf courses. The Westin Roco Ki Beach and Golf Resort, with more than 327 lodging accommodations and 130 branded condominiums planned, began construction last year and is expected to open next spring. It will also feature a conference center, seven restaurants, bars, a gourmet market, and a 18,000 - sq.ft. full service health spa. It will also offer an array of activities for its guests, including world-class golf, tennis, a luxury spa, deep-sea fishing, snorkeling, scuba diving, horseback riding, retail shops, exceptional beaches, and sightseeing tours. As testimony to the “arrival” of the Dominican Republic and Roco Ki in particular, anxious homebuyers, mostly from the US , prepurchased over 75% of the Westin’s luxury condominiums during the first sales event. Currently, there is no direct competition in the Dominican Republic for the Westin, however, since it will be the first in the country to offer higher-income vacationers a master-planned, internationally branded luxury Caribbean five-star resort, Westin’s entry into the market paves the way for the next level of luxury at Roco Ki and throughout the country.
