WHY THIS TRIP?

The Founder’s Edition is the first expression of The Island Escape—a deliberately small escape for couples who want to experience the Dominican Republic beyond the obvious. It brings villa living, private group movement, culture, nature, adventure, romance, and intentional downtime into one carefully considered week.

PRIVATE WHERE IT MATTERS.

Both villas are exclusive to the Island Escape group. Transportation is arranged privately for the group across the scheduled week. Major experiences and boat days are held privately for the group, while a dedicated chef prepares meals around the group’s preferences. Privacy here is shared ease—not isolation.

NOT JUST A PLACE TO GO. A PLACE TO ESCAPE TO.

We hold the details with care, leaving room for the destination—and for each other. There is adventure, culture, ocean, romance, and time to do absolutely nothing.
