The city itself displays contrasts at every turn – contemporary hotels sit on ancient cobblestone streets, luxury cars park beside well-worn scooters, and exotic cuisine is served at chic restaurants while street vendors offer traditional Dominican fare. The city’s restaurants specialize in both gourmet Dominican cuisine and international gastronomy, while abundant shopping delights visitors and residents alike with boutiques and major chain retailers from the U.S. and Europe. Ensuring no shortage of cultural experiences, the city also offers a wealth of museums, galleries and theaters. Nestled inside Santo Domingo on the Ozama River is America’s first and oldest city, the Colonial City, which was established by Bartholomew Columbus, Christopher Columbus’ brother in 1498. Here, visitors can walk cobblestone streets that conquistadors once strolled centuries ago. The Colonial City is one of the most beautiful and romantic areas in all of the Caribbean, especially at night with the spectacular lighting of restaurants, museums and ancient stone structures that date back to the early 1500s. Major business hotels offering panoramic views of the deep blue water along the Malecón are also hotspots for international conferences. Santo Domingo is especially attractive for small and medium-sized meetings with plenty of things to do before, during and after the conference, convention or meeting. Hotels provide meeting rooms and executive floors for small events, and large conference rooms for bigger groups. There’s a great variety of venues in museums, cultural, governmental and educational centers and even in shopping malls that can be rented for presentations and events. About an hour east of Santo Domingo, visitors can escape to the resort town of Boca Chica, known as the capital’s beach town. Boca Chica’s beaches are a family favorite for their coral reef-protected lagoon, shallow waters and soft powdery sand lapped by turquoise waters. The area is surrounded by a variety of seafood restaurants, charming hotels and fun shops, and boasts perfect weather for sailing. Further east, Juan Dolio is a slow-paced escape from the energetic city for Dominicans and visitors alike. The beach town rests along the Caribbean shoreline with a quiet main street where most hotels and restaurants are located.

The city beach, which is famous for its clear turquoise water and powdery-white sand, attracts large crowds on weekends. Vendors can be found selling everything from massages to seafood to coconuts to necklaces. Lined with outdoor restaurants and majestic views, Boca Chica is home to attractive marinas that cater specifically to boating and sailing pursuits. Playa Caribe This small, cove-like beach is very popular with people from Santo Domingo. The waves are known to be good for body boarding. Source: Ministry of Tourism Santo Domingo´s destination report 15 Touristic attractions Playa Juan Dolio Playa Guayacanes About 8 miles (13 kilometers) east of Boca Chica is the small town of Guayacanes. The town’s beach offers a mix of predominantly locals with some tourists, but its calm waters create a small village appeal. Playa Juan Dolio Juan Dolio Beach, located two miles (three kilometers) east of Guayacanes, is more relaxed than Boca Chica. High-rise beachfront residences cater to affluent city dwellers who make the commute to enjoy the sea views and the excellent gastronomy at local restaurants. The large expanse of shoreline allows for a relaxing day at the beach, while the resorts even sell one-day passes to their all-inclusive offerings, minus the room.

  • Beach Resorts East of Santo Domingo
    539140 Ch05.qxd 9/9/03 9:49 PM Page 80 5 Beach Resorts East of Santo Domingo Once you leave Santo Domingo, heading east along Highway 3, you quickly approach what is virtually the Dominican Republic Riviera centered around the resorts of Boca Chica and Juan Dolio. This is the land where the citizens of Santo Domingo themselves go to cool off in the fiery summer months. Boca Chica itself became the virtual summer retreat of the wealthy residents of the city during the Trujillo era before develop- ing into the mass vacation resort it is today. To Boca Chica’s imme- diate east, Juan Dolio is a wide beach-bordering string of tourist developments that started to grow up in the 1980s. Don’t expect a lot in facilities and attractions except at the hotels themselves, most of which are all-inclusives, attracting a lot of patronage from West- ern Europe, especially France and Spain. Although Americans and Canadians are also lured in great numbers to these resorts, most of the clients book in on low-cost package deals instead of paying the “rack rates” quoted to everybody. The eastward trek continues through San Pedro de Macoris, ringed with sugar plantations, until La Romana is reached. We pre- fer La Romana to either Juan Dolio or Boca Chica, primarily because of its deluxe Casa de Campo (see listing later in this chapter). At La Romana is found Altos de Chavón, an artists’ community built in the style of a 16th-century Mediterranean village. This is the greatest man-made attraction of the Dominican Republic, and is worth a visit even if you have to rush down from Santo Domingo and view the sight in a day before returning to the capital in the evening.

  • Caribbean Island Trips
    CARIBBEAN AND THE ISLANDS OF THE BAHAMAS AND BERMUDA Image courtesy of the Aruba Tourism Authority 2 | Welcome to the Caribbean Welcome to the CARIBBEAN Blazing sunsets over Technicolor seas, teeming with nearly 700 species of fish flitting among 70 types of vivid coral. Trade winds that skim mountain peaks, breathing softly into lush rainforests. Palms rising out of sparkling white beaches. Ethereal cloud forests that float high above mangrove swamps, cactus scrublands, and vast savannahs. These are the images travelers to the Caribbean’s over 700 islets, reefs, cays, and more than 30 islands carry with them. However, the beauty of these paradisiacal destinations goes beyond stunning aesthetic; gorgeous landscapes and year-round sunshine are only the beginning of this region’s allure. To get a true picture of the Caribbean, look past what you see and tap into how you feel. Close your eyes and focus on the sound of steel drums and pounding feet as pulsing reggae, calypso, and other island rhythms echo through the night. Savor what cuisine spooned from a melting pot tastes like—a blend of African, Spanish, Asian, East Indian and European flavors creating a profile all its own. Let the joy and vibrancy of incredible festivals infuse your soul. Escape to a time and place a world away, with elegant hospitality surrounded by colonial architecture on romantic estates, or resorts that provide modern luxury at its finest. Together, these are the true lasting impressions of the Caribbean— the beautiful, unforgettable moments embedded in your mind and heart forever; an indelible mark from the sweetest of escapes.

  • Meet the Hippotizer Power-Users of Green Hippo's Key User Support
    Meet the Hippotizer power-users of Green Hippo’s Key User Support Group (KUSP) | 1 Jorge Toro of JMT Show Concepts. Haines City, FL, USA – From an early age, Jorge Toro, owner of Florida-based JMT Show Concepts, has had a knack for technology and a head for business. In his 25 years in entertainment production, he has constantly moved forward, letting nothing slow him down. In recent years, however, a fruitful partnership with Green Hippo has certainly contributed to that forward momentum. Jorge’s links with entertainment began in his teenage years, when he started helping out a DJ friend with his audio equipment in their native Puerto Rico. “I started working with him, carrying equipment, setting up,” he recalls. “He taught me how to do everything – and I was good at it.” He progressed to mixing sound for bands in Puerto Rico, and after buying his own PA system, spent several years both renting and mixing. “It was good time,” he says. “I grew up a lot as a person, as a technician and as a company, until I decided to sell up and move to the States.” Meet the Hippotizer power-users of Green Hippo’s Key User Support Group (KUSP) | 2 To cement his audio knowledge, Jorge headed to Florida’s renowned Full Sail University to study a degree in Recording Arts, before returning to wider freelance opportunities in Puerto Rico. But Jorge is also good at recognising opportunity – and a change of direction was on the horizon. “A friend had bought a lot of LED screen, and asked me to be production manager, and look after all their gigs.
