About Tortuga Bay
Tortuga Bay is a boutique property within Puntacana Resort & Club, a behemoth resort and residential community encompassing amenities galore. Its 15 villas were designed by legendary style maven Oscar de la Renta, who was born in the Dominican Republic. Coral stone covers both the façade and the floor in all villas; interiors feature mahogany and rattan furniture made by local artisans. In addition to authentic Dominican décor and spacious terraces, these accommodations have luxuries such as 41-inch plasma televisions.
Guests have exclusive access to a quiet sliver of white-sand beach, a swimming pool, and a poolside restaurant, and they can make full use of Puntacana, which has the only Six Senses Spa in the Americas. Each villa gets two golf carts that guests can use to negotiate the 15,000-acre complex. Tortuga Bay guests receive VIP treatment at Puntacana's on-site international airport, a short ride from the villas.

Located in the golf clubhouse, Puntacana's 19,400-square-foot (1,802 square meters) Six Senses Spa has eight indoor treatment rooms with private steam baths and changing rooms. In addition, there are two beachfront palapas.
All therapists worked at Six Senses locations in the Far East before coming to this spa, which opened in 2005. They specialize in Asian-influenced treatments such as Thai massage with or without herbal compresses and Vietnamese massage incorporating cupping.
The signature massage combines Swedish, lomilomi, and Ayurvedic techniques. Another specialty: the 60-minute Tropical Fruit Body Smoother, a full-body treatment using locally grown papaya, pineapple, watermelon, and rice grains.
