Sit back and relax, because here are ten reasons why Casa de Campo in the Dominican Republic should be at the top of your wish list. From a magnificent replica of a 16th-century Mediterranean village in the heart of Casa de Campo to ocean views that are unmatched by any other island in the Caribbean.
1: Easily Accessible
Getting to this exotic island from the United States or Canada is a breeze. There are more nonstop flights from both countries than to any other destination in the Caribbean or Latin America.
Flight prices range between $500 and $1,000, and there’s no need to book far in advance. If an 8-hour flight to Europe or a 10–12-hour flight to Hawaii is outside your comfort zone when traveling during COVID-19, then the Dominican Republic is the perfect place for you and your loved ones.
You have three airports to choose from, listed here from least to most expensive arrival point: Santo Domingo (1 hour away), Punta Cana Airport (45 minutes), and La Romana Airport (5 minutes from Casa de Campo).
2: A Free Dose of Ocean Vitamin
The Dominican Republic offers countless beaches that attract everyone—white, crystal-clear sandy beaches around the island and secluded beaches up north. You’ll always find a perfect spot for sunbathing.
Casa de Campo’s Beach Club at Minitas Beach offers all of the above, plus more: you can enjoy award-winning 5-star cuisine day or night, spend quality time with your kids in one of two family-friendly pools, or unwind in the adults-only pool at the beach club bar.
3: Exquisitely Delicious Food & Drink
Casa de Campo offers multiple restaurants with a wide variety of food and drink, including unique wines and local and international spirits. Discover the flavors of the islands, local Dominican dishes, and world cuisine, all with seaside views at the majestic Casa de Campo Marina.
4: Private Dining Experiences
There are also private options—outdoor dining in one of Simply Dominican’s 5-star villas, usually with local chefs bringing their creativity to delight friends, family, or even business colleagues. One of our villas, Casa Miralejos, is in our opinion one of the best villas you can rent for this experience. You can book it at

If your entire group can prove they are vaccinated against COVID-19, we will offer a 10% discount on the agreed-upon rate.
5: Glorious Masterpieces of Antiquity
Casa de Campo is home to the wonderful Altos de Chavón—whether you’re a history lover or not. Located in La Romana, just 110 km from historic Santo Domingo and perched atop a lush, rocky plateau. Built in 1976, it is a perfect replica of an ancient Mediterranean village—if you haven’t visited one before, now’s your chance.
Altos de Chavón is also home to the Church of St. Stanislaus, consecrated in 1979, one of the most beautiful churches in the Dominican Republic. If you plan to rent a villa instead of staying at the Casa de Campo hotel for a wedding or baptism, you can still use the church for your ceremony and organize your event with Casa de Campo’s amazing catering and event services.

6: Vibrant Nightlife
Feel young and alive—Casa de Campo offers endless fun. From party spots like the natural pools off the Casa de Campo coastline to a visit to SGB at the marina lighthouse, there’s no shortage of places to enjoy. You can easily arrange a trip to the natural pools by visiting this link.
7: Rural Serenity
If you prefer the opposite of partying, Casa de Campo is the perfect choice. Its beauty lies in the fact that it’s located in a rural area of the Dominican Republic called La Romana. Here, you won’t find bright city lights, noise, or air pollution. It’s the perfect place to arrive, sit by the pool, read a book, and relax. An ideal villa to unwind in is Casa La Playa, with its private beach, nestled in the peaceful Bahía Minitas area. You can book it by clicking here.
8: Culture
What makes this place vibrant and admirable is its people and its multicultural lifestyle—reflected in dance, music, and food. Something that will certainly stay with you after your trip is how wonderful and kind Dominican people are. The island has a rich history dating back to the Taíno era. The Taínos were an Indigenous Caribbean people, and you can learn more about them by clicking here.
9: Excellent Spa Experiences
Casa de Campo is the ideal place for a relaxing spa vacation—offering state-of-the-art treatments at the Casa de Campo Hotel Spa, as well as in-villa spa services that are rejuvenating and revitalizing. Nowhere else will you find more talented professionals and therapists on the island.
10: And Lastly… Sports!
For those who love an active lifestyle, nothing compares. Casa de Campo is simply unmatched in the Caribbean when it comes to golf and sports. Choose from one of many golf courses, starting with the world-famous “Teeth of the Dog,” or go horseback riding and meet your friends in the afternoon at the shooting center. Whatever you desire, Casa de Campo offers it.
