Are you planning a Dominican Republic vacation? Making a business trip to Santo Domingo? Or considering investing in Dominican Real Estate?
Well, my sister and I were born in the heart of the Dominican Republic, near to San Francsico de Macoris. We spent many innocent wonderful years living in rustic homes and simple communities and we still really LOVE our special island home.
Santo Domingo (as locals tend to refer to whole country) is a Spanish speaking corner of the Caribbean, and we have built this website to try and help future and returning visitors to the Dominican Republic to find information quickly and easily and to make the most of a visit to, or vacation in the Dominican Republic – all in one place!. There is a lot of information here, so grab a Dominican coffee, or perhaps light-up a Dominican cigar, and take leisurely some time to browse... because in the DR there is always manana!
