BEAUTIFUL HOTELS

Overlooking the coastline of the Samaná Peninsula, @the_peninsula_house stands out as a beacon of boutique luxury service in Dominican Republic. Designed in a Colonial Victorian style by French architect Serge Robin, the hotel has over 20,000 square-feet of gorgeous, meticulously-fashioned interior space — including wrap-around terraces, a library, a billiards room, a salon, and an exquisite dining room — perfect for exploring between whale watching and outings to tranquil mangrove lagoons. #BDxDR (
