We stayed at the Capella in July. The location was very convenient to Santo Domingo & La Romana. Check-in took over 1 hour - why I don't know. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. Our room in the 3000 block was fine - no problems. The beach was beautiful and the swimming great. The beach vendors were not a... more

First off, we were not picked up by CoCo Tours at the airport, after having spent the money to be picked up. We ended up spending $45.00 getting a cab to the resort. Needless to say, I will NEVER use CoCo Tours for ANYTHING ever again. Overall the hotel was nice. Our suites were nice, but there were not enough... more

The BARCELO CAPELLA was a nice resort. The beach was very enjoyable. The staff was polite, but expect some frustrations. For example, we spent two days asking for a remote control for the TV (bad service). Our room was only cleaned 3 days out of our 8 day visit. When we arrived the first day, there was a used condom... more

Before going on our trip I read a lot of reviews of our hotel on trip advisor, after reading through some I was nervous to say the least.

My friends and I just came back from this place and we already miss it. It surpassed our expectations and had a lot of fun. There were indeed some -hiccups- while we where there, but the overall experience was excellent. We checked the reviews in here before we went to have an idea of what to expect, and I can... more

I stayed at the Barcelo Capella from June 13th - June 30th 2008. I was pleasantly surprised because at first, being used to the larger resorts in Punta Cana (the main tourist area of the DR), I thought that the place was pretty small. But despite the relatively modest appearance from the main entrance, it is actually a quite sizeable... more

22 June - 26 June 2008 We decided to book a holiday at last minute as it would be the only chance I would have for several months. We booked online through TNT vacations. That in itself was fine, we got a courtesy call asking if we realized our return journey was an overnight stay in Miami and the tickets... more
