SAMÁ
The Coastal Reserve
The Vision
A reserve held between two headlands.
Samá is the hero vision for Terre De Semana — a private coastal reserve drawn directly from the site's actual cliff geometry, anchored by a hidden marina, a single founders' club, and a long cinematic arrival from the sky.
The architecture is restrained, the experience is not. Cliffside residences, a candlelit beach pavilion, an over-water spa, and a yacht harbour reached through a narrow cut in the rock — each element designed to feel discovered rather than presented.
Ninety-four percent of the land remains jungle. Six percent becomes one of the most quietly extraordinary private destinations in the modern Caribbean.

Chapter 02 · The Arrival
A cinematic descent from the sky.
Samá begins above the land. A discreet circular helipad on the western cliff, a single monolithic pavilion of warm limestone, a long reflecting pool that draws the eye past the threshold and out to the open Atlantic. Arrival is the first room of the reserve.
- Private heliport · direct from Santo Domingo & Punta Cana
- Monolithic stone arrival pavilion
- Reflecting pool axis to the ocean
- Members' transfer in vintage Defender
Chapter 03 · The Residences
Thirty-two homes, anchored to the cliff.
Elevated on stone pilotis, oriented to dawn, almost invisible from the water below. Cantilevered infinity pools merge with the horizon; teak shutters open the interior to the trade winds. Each residence is private to the next by a hundred metres of intact canopy.
- ≤ 32 residences across the property
- Cantilevered infinity pools to the sea
- Teak, limestone, warm concrete, bronze
- Each separated by ≥ 100m of preserved jungle

Chapter 05 · The Beach Sanctuary
One pavilion. A hundred candles. The sea.
Not a resort. A house on the sand. A single thatched pavilion of stacked limestone, lit by a hundred lanterns, opening onto a kilometre of bioluminescent cove. One long communal table. The signature ritual of Samá.
- Single members-only pavilion
- Lantern-lit communal dining at the water
- Bioluminescent cove on calm nights
- Cuisine drawn from the peninsula's elders

Six percent built. Ninety-four left to the jungle.
