25,000 m²2.5 hectaresBeach access

An estate-scale parcel beside one of Latin America's top beaches

This 25,000 m² (2.5-hectare) parcel sits directly adjacent to Playa Rincón — a 3 km stretch of near-empty white sand and turquoise water on the Samaná Peninsula, with no commercial development along the beach itself. The scale supports a private estate or a low-density residential project that preserves the setting.

Playa Rincón is reachable via Las Galeras, a small fishing village at the tip of the peninsula with almost no mass tourism. The area draws independent travelers and eco-tourists for whale watching (January–March), snorkeling, and access to Los Haitises National Park.

Owning Land Beside Playa Rincón

The nearest airport is El Catey International (AZS), about 45 minutes by paved road; Punta Cana International (PUJ) is a further option at roughly 3 hours. The parcel is reached via Las Galeras, the peninsula's only real town, with small grocery stores, restaurants and a clinic — beyond that there is no commercial development along this coast, which is what has kept Playa Rincón itself untouched.

At 2.5 hectares, this parcel has enough scale for a private estate with staff quarters, guest cottages and a working garden, while still being manageable as a single-family property. Most owners nearby build off-grid or semi-off-grid: solar plus battery storage is standard, and water typically comes from a private well or cistern. Road access is unpaved but passable year-round by regular vehicle; a 4x4 helps in the rainy season (May–Nov).

Buying Land in the Dominican Republic — What to Expect

Foreign nationals can buy and hold land in the Dominican Republic with the same property rights as Dominican citizens — there's no restriction on foreign ownership and no requirement to form a local company for a purchase like this one. The standard process runs in four steps:

  1. Title verification — before any offer, the parcel's title is verified at the Jurisdicción Inmobiliaria (the national land registry) to confirm clean title with no liens or competing claims.
  2. Promise of sale — a contrato de promesa de venta (purchase agreement) is signed, typically with a 10% deposit held until closing.
  3. Notarization and transfer — a Dominican notario público certifies the deed transfer (Acto de Venta). Transfer tax (3% of registered value) and notary/legal fees (roughly 1–2%) are paid at this stage.
  4. Registration — the new title is registered in your name at the Registro de Títulos, usually completed within 4–8 weeks of signing.

We work with the same lawyers and notaries we'd use for our own family's transactions, and we're on the ground in Samaná to walk the parcel and handle logistics in person — not over email from abroad.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can foreigners buy land in the Dominican Republic?

Yes. Foreign nationals have the same property rights as Dominican citizens and can hold land title directly in their own name, with no need to form a local company for a standard purchase like this one.

Is the title clean on this parcel?

Yes — this parcel comes with clean Dominican title (título saneado), verified at the Jurisdicción Inmobiliaria before listing. We can share the deslinde and title documents on request.

How do I get to Playa Rincón?

Fly into El Catey (AZS), about 45 minutes away by paved road, or Punta Cana (PUJ), roughly 3 hours. From Las Galeras village it's a short drive on a mix of paved and unpaved road to the parcel.

What can I build on 2.5 hectares here?

The scale suits a private estate — main house, guest cottages, staff quarters and gardens — or a low-density residential project of a few homes that preserves the setting, which is the intent behind keeping this stretch undeveloped.

What are the closing costs?

Budget roughly 4–5% of the purchase price for transfer tax (3%) plus notary and legal fees (1–2%). We coordinate the notario and can recommend independent legal counsel if you'd like your own representation.
