The Dominican Republic has become the number one tourism destination in the Caribbean. It now attracts a large number of tourists that used to visit other countries in the region; for example, last year 4,3 million tourists visited the Dominican Republic, surpassing by far traditional destinations like Acapulco (4,1 million) and Cuba (2,3 million visitors).
Our country also surpassed these destinations in number of hotel rooms available in 2006, reaching more than 60.000.
Beyond an all-inclusive experience
The widely known all inclusive vacation packages are now evolving towards a five-star vacation experience. The number of visitors coming to the Dominican Republic for pleasure, business or to live is increasing every day as well.
In addition, the Dominican Republic has undergone a larger increase in economic growth over the last two years than it did in the last decade, due mostly to our transparent legal framework and political stability. Likewise, the quality of life and the infrastructure have improved significantly thanks to the efforts of the current government in the construction of highways, ports and airports.
The growing construction and availability of vacation homes and tourism complexes, comprised of condominiums for rent and sale, have strengthened the tourism industry and created variety. Projects such as Cap Cana, Roco ki, Grupo Punta Cana, Ocean world, Casa de Campo, Sea Horse Ranch and others are only a few of the numerous succes stories.
The New York times said it best in 2006: "The Dominican Republic is the number one family destination." We invite you to see it for yourself!
