Terramar complex
Hi again, Alex. Should you be interested in purchasing a property in Terramar, seek out one of the many realtors in the Sosua/Cabarete area, explain your budget/requirements i.e 2-3-4 bedroom house etc., beleive me, they will be pleased for your business.
Perhaps you should read another thread about the Terramar development:

Hi Alax...The most honest realitor I have dealt with is Mike McDermot Phone number 829 678 2975. Many gringos seem to turn into dishonest people while living here. Mike is not one of them.
Thanks j&t's future but I wasn't really interested in a real estate professional. I really wanted to meet someone who lives there or a friend of someone who lives there, to give me first hand knowledge about the complex, good and bad experiences while living there, and especially dealing with the owner of terramar.
We have a house in Terramar and are very happy with it. Unfortunately we don't get to spend too much time there as retirement is still a bit away but we look forward to all our time there largely due to the many friends and neighbours around us. I have a hard time believing the poster on a previous thread compaining about noise and rowdies. One of our favorite past times there is enjoying quiet nights on the deck enjoying the peace, quiet and stars. Never even hear the traffic from the nearby road thanks to the hills. The owners tend to be an older crowd (like us!) as well so not much late night partying going on.
Any chance you can give your experience with the electricity cost as this seems to be an issue with some people on DR1. From what I have been told, the price per kw hour is 12 pesos, although a bit high, is still reasonable considering 24/7 service. Others claim the price is double the amount I have quoted.
Terramar is actually called Sunset Valley now. Here is a link to the company that manages Sunset Valley. They should be able to provide you with rates.

My wife and I have lived very happily here for several years and take great exception to the post from the person who makes negative comments based upon spending a couple of weekends here. Also the comparison between Costimbar and Terramar was like comparing an apple to an orange.
We have lived in Sosua for over 20 years and find living here in Sunset Valley very affordable ( averages $540/mo for administration, maintenance, electricity, water and security). It's very scenic, exceedingly quiet, very secure and clean.....only 5 min from downtown Sosua. Two new homes are currently under construction.
The other feature we enjoy is the lots are spacious and the homes are not crowded together.
Find a competent realtor and please check it out.

We are also curious about the restaurant! Quite a change from the tennis club that could never seem to keep going. (Too bad as I am an avid tennis player). We miss Terramar/Sunset Valley a lot and can't wait to get back again soon
The restaurant by the same name in Puerto Plata was fantastic last night, both food and service. I believe same owner.
