MAGNIFICENT DREAM LOT IN ORCHID BAY OVER 11 ACRES CARIBBEAN BEACH FRONT

Tercera Luna is, quite simply, one of the most dramatic available oceanfront properties in the entire world. If having your own, personal beach in the heart of the Caribbean is one of your unrelenting criteria, TL just might be the place for you.

Above, this impossibly beautiful and romantic dreamland undulates across a breezy, palm-studded plateau, along a sea cliff inexplicably dripping with wild red orchids, then down to the polished coral sands below, an exotic boulder-grotto private beach where warm, reef protected ocean waters lap a secret cove, sweetly swim-able year-round.

This 11 acre property (43,547 square meters, ) also features a dense forest of royal palms and a magical cañada, a seasonal stream in a tropically vegetated canyon with tiny pools and waterfalls that spill into the sea. The well-drained soil and prevailing sea breezes maintain this unusual site exceptionally comfortable and miraculously mosquito-free.

Remarkably, this once-in-a-lifetime land has its long side along the sea, dominating a half kilometer of wild orchid-draped sea cliff and touching three distinctively different sparkling white sand beaches on the Dominican Republic's spectacular and ultra-emerging Costa Verde (Non-metric-minded friends: think five football fields of oceanfront).

Although this region of the country, long known for its charming denizens and relaxed way of life, is starting to be discovered, as the friendly natives have not been corrupted by mass-tourism, they may try to practice their English with you and teach you how to dance meringue and bachata at the slightest provocation.

There are many 6-star residences closeby, and a despite the fact that a championship golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones is here, ranching and farming and fishing are still the traditional sources of local income. Thus if you enjoy some connection with what is real, authentic and folkloric, and have a taste for the simple things as well as the most elegant ones, you're in the right place hereabouts.

Tercera Luna is accessed by a kilometer of private road shared with Orchid Bay, a gated, private residential community with homes that rival any in the world. Two episodes of the MSNBC TV show "On the Money" feature interviews with adventurous couples who have built their noteworthy, fantasy-inducing homes in this very special community that surrounds Tercera Luna.

The largest house in the country is here, 5,500 m2 (59,000 square feet of construction), owned by Canada's two-time CEO of the year. And the most beautiful house in the country is also here, a Japanese modern icon designed by a famous architect for one of the Google founders. Thus this almost-unimaginable Eden lends itself to a variety of upscale uses.

Now, having saved the best for last….. The center beach of the three that bless Tercera Luna, the perfect one-third moon for which the property is named, is totally contained within the parcel and embraced by two majestic rock peninsulas. The polished golden coral sands don't stick to your skin – they fall off when you stand up. The outer reef keeps the cove safe for swimming, even in times of big waves, and can be pleasurably snorkeled and scuba-dived when the seas are normal. And there's even a surfing break, just for fun.

The views of the beach from multiple building sites are awe-inspiring, and may leave you spiritually feeling as much like the guardian of this land as the owner. You have to see this property to believe the awesome opportunity. Call for a showing and let DROCEANVIEW help you fulfill your Caribbean Dreams!
