What types of apartments are available for sale?

Moon Garden 2 features a collection of 108 apartments designed for modern Caribbean living. Buyers can choose from one, two, and three-bedroom layouts, with sizes starting from 695 square feet. Each apartment is delivered turnkey and fully furnished, including a complete appliance package, making it ready for immediate occupancy or rental upon delivery in September 2027.

The residences are thoughtfully designed with private terraces. Ground-floor units feature private pools, while upper-floor apartments include private jacuzzis. This variety ensures an option for different lifestyle preferences and investment goals, all within a cohesive resort community.

Where in Punta Cana are these apartments located?

The apartments are located within Moon Garden 2, a new phase inside the gated Coral Golf Resort in the Cabeza de Toro area of Punta Cana. This location balances tranquility with convenience, placing residents moments away from key attractions while maintaining a private, resort-like atmosphere.

The community is strategically positioned for easy access. It’s a short 3-minute drive to the white sands of Playa Cabeza de Toro and the development's private beach club. Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) is approximately 10 minutes away, making travel simple for owners and rental guests. Within the resort itself, owners have access to a host of amenities, including a signature 12-acre water-sports lagoon, spa and wellness facilities, restaurants, and a pet park.

What are the ownership and tax benefits for buyers?

The Dominican Republic encourages foreign investment in real estate, allowing non-citizens to purchase and hold freehold title to property with the same rights as Dominican nationals. This makes buying an apartment at Moon Garden 2 a straightforward and secure process.

Furthermore, Moon Garden 2 is a CONFOTUR-approved project under Law 158-01. This provides a significant financial advantage to the first buyers of these apartments. The benefits include an exemption from the 3% property transfer tax, which is a one-time closing cost, and an exemption from the 1% annual property tax (IPI) for the period granted to the project. The IPI is levied only on property value above an annually adjusted threshold, so the exemption provides a notable saving. The law provides a fifteen-year term for qualifying projects; your attorney can confirm the specifics as they apply to your purchase.

For owners interested in generating income, an optional managed rental program is available, with the developer projecting annual returns in the 10-13% range. This program provides a hands-off way to capitalize on Punta Cana's strong tourism market.

What does the buying process look like for a non-resident?

The process of purchasing an apartment in the Dominican Republic is well-defined and can be managed entirely from abroad. Engaging a qualified local real estate attorney is a crucial first step to represent your interests, conduct due diligence, and ensure a smooth transaction.

1. Reservation Agreement
   Once you've selected your apartment, a simple reservation agreement is signed to take the unit off the market.
2. Promise of Sale Contract
   Your attorney will review the formal Promise of Sale contract. This legally binding document outlines all terms of the purchase, the property details, and the delivery date.
3. Title Transfer and Registration
   Upon completion of the property, your attorney manages the final closing process. They will register the deed of sale with the Dominican Title Registry Office, officially recording you as the new, legal owner of the apartment.

Why consider a new-construction apartment at Moon Garden 2?

Choosing a new-construction apartment at Moon Garden 2 means investing in a modern asset built by an established developer. Gesproin Group, founded in 2017, has a portfolio of 21 projects and over 2,000 delivered units in Punta Cana's most desirable areas, with a focus on the US and Canadian markets.

With a delivery date of September 2027, these apartments will be built under the Dominican Republic's national building code. This code, updated in 2026, includes mandatory requirements for wind-load resistance, a critical factor for coastal properties. As an owner, that means a brand-new property at today's pre-construction pricing.
