The Dominican Republic’s Samana Peninsula has a new option for groups seeking privacy, sustainability and personalized luxury: Ocama, a villa-only retreat, is tucked into 35 acres of secluded coastline overlooking Rincon Bay.
The property offers a setting ideal for incentives, executive retreats and intimate celebrations outside the traditional Caribbean hubs. Buy-outs are also available.
Villas with Privacy and Flexibility
Ocama features just eight villas, each with one to three bedrooms, a full kitchen and a private pool. The autonomy of villa living is paired with full-service amenities, including daily housekeeping, concierge support, room service and the option for private chef-prepared dinners or in-villa spa treatments. Groups can also gather at the Kai Pavilion, Ocama’s central space for shared meals and cocktails, or opt for custom dining experiences crafted around locally sourced ingredients.
Sustainable Luxury in the Caribbean
Ocama emphasizes its commitment to environmental responsibility. The villas were built with marble quarried nearby and sustainably sourced hardwoods crafted by local artisans. Living green roofs reduce energy consumption and blend the villas into the jungle canopy, while a strict plastic-free policy and local sourcing—from farmers and fishermen to artisans—ensure the property gives back to the community.
Tailored Activities for Groups
With a 24/7 concierge, incentive groups and corporate retreats can integrate wellness, adventure and cultural immersion into their programs. Options range from snorkeling, in-villa spa treatments and guided hikes on-property to off-site excursions such as humpback whale watching (Jan–March), horseback riding, birding tours or exploring the Seven Hidden Beaches Walking Trail. Team-building experiences can be designed around nature, wellness, or culinary exploration.
Accessible Seclusion
Though secluded, Ocama is within reach. The property is located about three hours from Las Americas International Airport (SDQ), which has nonstop flights from New York, Miami, Boston and Atlanta. Transfers by car or helicopter can be arranged.
With its exclusive villa inventory, ultra-personalized service and strong sustainability ethos, Ocama offers an alternative to large-scale resorts for incentive programs, buy-outs and executive gatherings.
