10/10 Excellent

Once again, this beautiful property on the picturesque Caribbean coast has enchanted us. The physical plant is perfect for us - enough units to make for full facility equipment (pool, direct access to the adjacent beach, barbecue, etc.), but not so many that the residents fade into anonymity in the thundering herd. The staff are ever ready to help, providing friendly faces, services, and assistance where needed. The Wi-Fi in the unit is as good as can be had in the DR, which is to say great when the cable provider is not performing maintenance, which though not infrequent, is not problematic. This community is gated, and is guarded 24/7, which is the first and strongest obvious layer to the generalized sense of security we enjoyed. Juan Dolio is a sleepy little town, though it has ATM access, several small supermercados and numerous restaurants within walking distance, a nearby pharmacy in addition a not too distant urgent care clinic. Mari is the best landlady we have encountered in the several VRBO experiences we have had, and we've encountered many who're very good - she's just excellent, that's all. She has provided a lovely apartment, great amenities, plentiful linens + towels, a lot of extremely valuable information and recommendations based upon her own experience in Juan Dolio and the vicinity, very rapid communications response, and a friendly ear. Though not a requirement, it has been our pattern to have a rental car; it is worth noting that EVERYTHING YOU NEED or NEED TO BUY is either present at Residencia Abdimar, within easy walking distance, or can be accessed by a very reasonably priced and easily arranged taxi ride. We could not be happier here. My only reluctance in reporting what a wonderful stay we have had (this being our 3rd here, and we're booked for next year...) is in the fact that this might encourage competition for the time-frames in which we continue to be interested.
