Beaches filled with sand the color of sugar, turquoise waves lapping at the shore, golf on lush velvety fairways – it's all there waiting for you in the Dominican Republic, for a long time, it was a secret paradise, a place in the sun that only those-in-the-know had visited.

But now the world is winging to our shores to experience the unspoiled landscape, the fine resorts and the real estate as well. Mikhail Baryshnikov, Julio Iglesias, Vin Diesel, Brad Pitt – they've all been here and you should visit, too. Come find a friendly welcome, taste the pleasures of island life, music and food and experience our balmy great outdoors.  And meet our friendly residents who extend a warm welcome to visitors.

The Dominican Republic, where you will find the magnificent Cap Cana development, is located on the eastern two-thirds of the Caribbean island of Hispaniola, the second largest island in the Greater Antilles, lying west of Puerto Rico and east of Cuba and Jamaica.

We have hundreds of miles of unspoiled shoreline; places to parasail, scuba dive, fish, snorkel and work on your tan; more golf courses than any other Caribbean country including the only Jack Nicklaus Signature Course, located at Cap Cana. It's a bit of a safe haven, secure from the pressures and hassles of the outside world.

And it's easier than ever to get here. And one visit and you're going to want to return again and again. Perhaps you'll want to invest permanently in a little corner of paradise yourself – before the rest of the world finds out, that is.
