The Don Dom Brings Eco-Conscious Luxury Living to the Dominican Republic’s Rising Coast
A New Standard for Sustainable Coastal Living
June 16, 2025 — A fresh vision of Caribbean real estate is taking shape in Dominicus-Bayahibe with the launch of The Don Dom, a gated, eco-conscious residential community by BECCA and its strategic design partner GRITT. Spanning more than 1.3 million square feet, this thoughtfully planned development introduces a modern framework for low-key luxury, rooted in connection to nature and grounded in community.
With construction underway and early bird sales already generating momentum, The Don Dom signals the emergence of Dominicus as a destination for mindful growth and design-forward living on the Dominican Republic’s southeastern coast.
Phase 1: “La Isla” Anchors the Vision
The first phase of The Don Dom—La Isla—centers around a series of lagoon-style saltwater pools, encircling 294 residences positioned for light, airflow, and privacy. This tranquil, island-inspired layout emphasizes seamless indoor-outdoor living, low-impact infrastructure, and long-term comfort for both permanent residents and vacation buyers.
Unit types span five categories, offering a flexible range of price points and living styles:
Island Houses: The most exclusive offerings, featuring three bedrooms, private terraces, and dedicated beach and pool access. Starting at $550,000.
Flex Dual-Key Apartments: Two independent living spaces within one unit—ideal for rental flexibility. Starting at $311,000.
2-Bedroom Apartments: Spacious layouts with en-suite bathrooms and select swim-up access. Starting at $209,000.
1-Bedroom Apartments: Open-concept layouts with optional rooftop pools or terraces. Starting at $149,392.
Studios: Efficient, minimalist spaces designed for practical island living. Starting at $105,000.
More than 60 units have already sold, signaling strong interest in this early release. La Isla is projected for completion in 2027.
Amenities Designed for Calm and Connection
At The Don Dom, luxury is expressed through ease, not excess. Planned amenities include artificial white-sand beaches, the Island Club & Bar, a Zen Garden with hammocks, a kids’ zone with a custom bubble slide, and co-working lounges for flexible daily living.
The entire community is golf cart–friendly and designed to promote slow, intentional movement with walkable paths, bike trails, and EV charging stations. Security, smart infrastructure, and 24/7 monitored access allow residents to enjoy a low-maintenance, high-comfort lifestyle.
Ownership is further simplified through BECCA’s full-service furnishing packages and forthcoming rental management program for short- and long-term stays.
Long-Term Value Through the BECCA Club
Buyers are automatically enrolled in the BECCA Club, a loyalty program offering early access to future phases, preferred rates on maintenance and design services, invitations to curated regional events, and exclusive beach club access across the Caribbean.
In a standout industry move, BECCA also offers 24/7 live construction camera access—an innovative transparency tool that reflects the company’s ongoing commitment to accountability and buyer trust, especially for international investors.
Master Plan and Future Phases
The Don Dom will expand in carefully staged phases over the coming years, each designed to preserve open space, integrate natural elements, and maintain low-density character. Planned additions include a village center with a culinary promenade, boutique hotel, wellness studios, and convention venue—all built to complement rather than compete with the rhythm of residential life.
With all necessary environmental permits secured from the Ministry of Environment and local officials, the development is positioned for steady, regulation-compliant growth.
Location: A Rising Coastal Enclave with Global Appeal
Set just five minutes from the shores of Playa Dominicus and 20 minutes from La Romana International Airport, The Don Dom offers a compelling balance of accessibility and privacy. The area’s growing profile is anchored by nearby resorts like Viva Wyndham, Iberostar, and Casa de Campo, as well as attractions like Saona Island, Altos de Chavón, and Bayahibe Port.
Dominicus itself is emerging as a low-key luxury haven—favored by European travelers for its eco-conscious spirit, crystalline waters, and sense of authenticity.
