It's a OK place, check in takes forever. But the grounds are very nice, the pools are great. the beach is fine. Lots and lots of average food, nothing great. Lots of booze. All at a very low price. They wheel and deal on price accordingly to hotel population. I stayed at the hilton once, it was crazy crowded, with... more

Stayed here for a few nights. This is a beautiful property located on the outskirts of Santo Domingo. While not that close to the city, it is perfect for lounging at the beach or poolside. If you are looking for the city life, this hotel might not be for you. At night there was live entertainment and dancing. The property... more

Is an acceptable resort. Food and beverage service is not impresive but is a good deal for the price more

Went here for a long weekend March 26th-30th in 2009. I had previously stayed in 2006 at the Barcelo Talanquera down the road, but this hotel was truly great. Grounds are nice, the second pool away from the beach has a slide and does not get very crowded. Bars are everywhere, if you tip your bartenders well and make sure... more

Although there was an attempt to have 3 lines at check-in, everyone claimed to be first. Check-out only had one attendant which made the process time-consuming and unpleasant. There is no express check-out... more

Stayed from June 30th to July 2nd. Just checked bank statements and over $3000 in charges made in London, England found. Credit card was only used to check in there and the rest of the time the wallet was in our room. So, either the check in staff or the housekeeper stole the number. We live in Georgia and have... more

Just ask for 4000 series rooms. 3000's are terrible. My wife and I really enjoyed the stay there. We were really relaxed and had a lot of food and drinks. In the beginning, we had one of 3000 series rooms. I forgot what number of that room is exactly. In that room, airconditioner is LEAKING, and everything terribly dated. Then... more

My husband and I just spent a week at the Barcelo Capella Beach Resort in Santo Domingo. As with any vacation, there were good things and bad, but we were happy to experience more good than bad. The property was beautiful! The rooms were a ittle run down, but still offered a nice place to relax and sleep after a... more
