Playa Alicia developments offer beach-walkable condos near the town's newest beach. Ocean Village Deluxe provides higher-end oceanfront options.

Popular gated communities include Sea Horse Ranch (luxury estates from $650,000+), Sosua Ocean Village (condos and villas from $179,000 with a water park and tennis academy), Casa Linda (custom-built villas with private pools), Hispaniola Residencial (modern villas popular with expats), and Costambar (an affordable mature community with its own beach, 10 minutes from Puerto Plata).
