Our trip was simply amazing! My group of friends and I travel literally the world together and this is one of our top destinations. The Island offers everything at convenient prices.
The beaches are incredible specially cayó arena AKA paradise island, and Bahia de las aguilas.
Restaurants in boca chica, malls is Santo Domingo, Altos de Chacón and la marina are incredible. Cap Cana is also a must go.

Santo Domingo reminded me of New York and gave me a great experience of the Real DR rather then just resorts . It was very humbling and great to see the regular Dominican living day to day with work , school , and handling business .

The colonial part of Santo Domingo is very safe and walkable.
The colonial part of Santo Domingo is very safe and walkable. It has an authentic historical, feel to it. You can see the sights yourself or hire a guide or a horse cart. There is also a chocolate factory where you can taste the chocolate or see how it's made. Sunday nights there are live salsa and merengue music concerts and dance parties from 6 to 10 at a park at the San Francisco ruins.
The food section is great, Dominican and international cuisine. Lots of bars and dance spots particularly on and around Calle Hostos. The old town is small so everything is easy to find. Definitelly worth a visit. Other parts of Santo Domingo are not safe.
“The hotel is in a great location and the staff and facility, "Unique". It was a delightful privilege to have that experience. I highly recommend their property. As a professional hotelier in a luxury property at USA, my expectations are pretty high, The service, up grade and pampering service surpassed all my wishes. I will give a 5 stars rating without any doubts.”
“Breakfast Buffet: very cool selection of tasty breakfast items to appeal to most tastes and the dining staff were very helpful in all aspects related to food.
Location: Simply put, this is probably the single best location for any hotel in Santo Domingo. Very convenient for me, and very close to the efficient Santo Domingo Metro.
Swimming Pool: I love being able to swim when I'm travelling, so the hotel's swimming pool, with its delightful music and bar ambience, was a real plus!”
