What sets us apart
Radical conservation
Four-fifths of our land stays wild. We build in harmony with nature, never at its expense — the forests, beaches, and wildlife of Samaná remain untouched for generations to come.
Resource independence
More than 40% of our energy and water comes from our own renewable sources. Less reliance on the grid, lower costs, greater resilience — a life that sustains itself.
Community empowerment
We reinvest a tenth of the value of every investment into the local community — education, jobs, and the growth of the region. Your home builds Samaná's future, too.
Our flagship project
Nomad City — a nature-first, community-focused private town.
Built on the lush hills of Monte Rojo, Nomad City combines panoramic ocean views, wellness-oriented living, and low-density development in one of the Caribbean's most extraordinary natural settings. Discover a more balanced way to live, work, and invest.

Frequently asked questions
Samana Group is a real estate developer and operator based on the Samaná Peninsula in the Dominican Republic. We bring together land acquisition, master planning, construction, and ongoing property and community management.
Our flagship development is Costa Samaná, a planned community combining homes, hospitality, and shared amenities, with Nomad City as its first phase. Our focus is on creating places where people can live, work, and enjoy nature, combining affordable luxury with thoughtful planning and long-term management.
Our projects address three problems typical of development in exotic tourism destinations: the absence of urban master planning, the absence of lifestyle design, and poor infrastructure quality. What makes our approach different is the focus on affordable luxury and sustainability while preserving the experience of living in an untouched natural environment.
Nomad City is one of the residential projects within the wider Costa Samaná masterplan, set in the hills of Monte Rojo next to Hacienda Cocuyo, overlooking Samaná Bay and Cayo Levantado. It brings together apartments, villas and scenic plots in a privately managed community designed for people who want to live, work and spend more time close to nature.
The vision combines low-density housing with shared spaces for daily life: coworking, dining, swimming, sport and social connection, supported by managed infrastructure and security. A planned Longevity Center adds a focus on spa, fitness, recovery and wellbeing. Facilities will be delivered in phases, so buyers should confirm which amenities will be available with their particular stage.
Nomad City forms part of a larger destination that will evolve through residential, hospitality and wellness projects over time. For remote workers, families, retirees and second-home owners, the appeal is a home with space, views and privacy, alongside a community and services that make everyday life easier. Explore the masterplan with our team to see how the different neighbourhoods fit together and which home best suits the life you want to build here.
We offer studio apartments, villas and residential plots within Nomad City. Choose an apartment for a simpler home base, a villa for private indoor and outdoor living, or a plot to discuss a home tailored to your needs. Purchases of several villas can also be arranged, subject to availability. Tell our team how you intend to use the property so we can recommend the right option and current stage.
Bank financing is our preferred route for villa buyers. Through our banking partner Banco BDI, eligible clients—including foreign buyers—can apply for construction financing in US dollars. This can help you build your home while spreading the financial commitment over time.
The current indicative framework offers up to 70% of direct construction costs, excluding land, or up to 50% based on an approved project valuation that takes land into account. Indicative interest rates are 8–10% per year, and funds are released in stages against certified construction progress. The bank assesses each application individually and determines the approved amount, rate, repayment term, and final conditions.
Our team helps prepare the property-side documentation and connects you with Banco BDI. Visit https://samana-group.net/financing/bank-financing and speak with our sales team to explore the current options for your home.
Yes. Foreign buyers can acquire full ownership of property in the Dominican Republic, generally on the same basis as Dominican citizens. This makes Samaná accessible whether you are planning a holiday home, a future move, or a property investment.
Our team guides you through the purchase documents and transaction steps, working with the professionals involved so you understand the process. Your independent lawyer can verify the title, boundaries, legal status, and applicable obligations before you commit. The result is a purchase supported by a recognised ownership and registration framework, with your plans and questions addressed along the way.
CONFOTUR is the Tourism Promotion Council that administers the incentives established under Law 158-01 and its amendments. For qualifying tourism developments and eligible buyers, these incentives can substantially reduce the tax cost of acquiring and owning a property.
Nomad City is presented with CONFOTUR benefits, including exemption from the 3% real-estate transfer tax and from annual property tax (IPI) for the applicable 15-year exemption period. The exact coverage, start date, and remaining exemption period are determined by the project's classification and the relevant tax authorisations; buyers should not assume that every later purchase starts a fresh 15-year period.
Ask our sales team for the classification resolution and confirmation that your selected property and transaction qualify. Your lawyer can verify the documents and exemption procedure before closing. This allows you to include the confirmed tax savings in your purchase decision. CONFOTUR does not mean that all legal fees, registration charges, maintenance costs, or other taxes disappear.
You can enjoy your home in Nomad City and put it to work through our professionally managed rental programme when you are away. We handle commercial letting through the designated management operation, including cooperation with rental platforms, so you do not have to manage listings, bookings, guest service, and property care yourself. Independent Airbnb listings and owner-run commercial rentals are not permitted. This coordinated model helps protect the standard of the whole community and gives guests a consistent experience, which also supports your property's appeal. You are welcome to stay in your home and host friends and family privately. Our team will explain how personal stays and rental availability are coordinated under your management agreement, so you can choose an arrangement that suits your lifestyle.
