    I haven’t seen a lot, the room was outside the main hotel and lobby.

    The room was comfortable.

    The construction in the area.

    I recently stayed at Casas del XVI in Santo Domingo and absolutely loved it! As a solo traveler, safety was my top priority, and they exceeded my expectations. There were always guards stationed outside the casas and patrolling the area, and they made sure I got into my casa safely every time. The property itself was stunning—just like the photos online. I fell in love with my room and left with so many decorating ideas. The staff was incredibly helpful and courteous throughout my stay. One of the highlights was having a butler who took my breakfast order each morning and even doubled as my photographer by the pool—he captured some amazing shots! I truly can’t say enough good things about this boutique hotel. I’ll definitely be returning soon!

    A hidden oasis that reveals more and more as you wander through its labyrinthian wonders.

    The food was not quite up to the excellent quality of the rest of the establishment. The menu could have been both simpler (fewer items) but more diverse, in offering items. Meaning there could have been more cultural and culinary diversity on the menu, as well as a broader range of the kinds of dishes offered, from snacks, appetisers, entrees, mains, side dishes, etc.

    The spaces, from the courtyards to the pools to the communal spaces to the rooms themselves - everything was magnificent. The service easily matched the facilities - they were constantly helpful and accommodating. Great character and absolutely unique destination.

    The service was very slow. The restaurant is clearly not set up for fine dining despite the unwarranted high prices the food was mediocre, overcooked and cold. The staff did their best but the starters arrived with the mains despite being clearly labelled as starters in the menu.

    The rooms and location were excellent. The rooms were very well equipped the eating spaces were lovely.
