Excellent location, comfortable, spacious space, the host is very friendly. Very good experience.

Casa Serena: cozy, modern, spacious and peaceful
The place is spacious and beautifully decorated. It was great to have hot water since it’s not common in the DR! The beds were comfortable. The AC units worked great. It was really helpful to have complimentary cleaning and laundry services. We enjoyed the back patio! It was really helpful to have the backup generator. It’s well integrated into the system.

Charming house in the Zona Colonial
Great value for the perfect location. We LOVED being on the basketball courts, watching the kids play daily. And having the most easy access to all that Zona Colonial has to offer. Bernhard was amazing! Would certainly come back

Charming Colonial House!
My stay here was wonderful felt right at home! Everything in the property worked as it should hot water and all! Fredimir was very helpful providing with items for my 6 month old baby. The property is in a good and safe location easy access to restaurants both fast food & fine dining. I also love the fact that there was someone there( Mrs Mirna his mom) to personally hand me the keys & show me around & assured me everything worked just fine which it did. I would definitely be returning again!

Heart of the colonial zone, Billini 54
Great place to stay. Graziella is a great host. This place is close to parks, restaurants, local history, tourist activities. If you are riding an uber, the best way to match the address is by selecting “Codia” as the destination and then telling the driver to go straight just a bit to get to the place. Totally recommend, and would stay here my next time in Santo Domingo (Distrito Nacional)

Beautiful space! Beautiful views. Extremely comfortable, felt very safe in the apartment. Thanks George for being a great host!

Cozy little house in the heart of the Colonial Zone
I had a great 3 night visit at La Casita. Patricia is extremely helpful as a host. The unit was exactly as I expected and the location is ideal, within a few blocks of the best restaurants and bars in the Zona. All 3 AC units operated perfectly to provide a comfortable sleeping climate. As a pet owner, I truly appreciated the quiet neighborhood and the 3 minute walk to a large park perfect for exercising your dog. I would absolutely stay here again.

Downtown Santo Domingo Luxury Apartment
Diana’s place was clean, comfortable and spacious. I spent most of my time on the balcony. There’s a parking garage but we had ample parking right on the street. It’s in a neighborhood thats being developed with high end apartments. Right next to a bodega which is convenient. It can be noisy outside but it’s the city so of course. 100% would book again

Your guide to Santo Domingo
All About Santo Domingo
Santo Domingo sits on the southern shore of the Dominican Republic and is one of the oldest cities in the Caribbean. The cobblestone streets and 16th-century buildings illustrate this capital city’s long history. As you wander the narrow lanes, you’ll take in vibrant town squares and old palaces now home to fascinating museums — such as Alcázar de Colón, part of the Ciudad Colonial UNESCO World Heritage Site. One of the oldest cathedrals in the Americas, the 16th-century Catedral Primada de América, stands in a lively, leafy plaza amid people seated on shaded benches or enjoying coffee in the nearby cafe.
The Malecón de Santo Domingo promenade provides a fantastic spot to take in the sweeping views of the Caribbean Sea while enjoying a cold beer or a bite at one of the restaurants and bars on the waterfront. For a small taste of the country’s natural scenery, you can head out to Three Eyes National Park, with its three turquoise lakes, or the National Botanical Gardens, brimming with indigenous plants and peaceful green spaces.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Santo Domingo
As a tropical destination, Santo Domingo has warm weather all year round. It also experiences a dry season from around November to March, which is a lovely time to explore some of the Dominican Republic’s spectacular beaches. The dry season is also the busiest time of the year, especially during Carnival, which sees colorful parades and nationwide celebrations for the month of February, culminating on Independence Day on February 27. The historic center of town can get crowded during this time, which is good to keep in mind when you’re booking your Santo Domingo apartment rental. Visitor numbers start to thin out in April and May as the rainy season approaches, which is a pleasant time for exploring the city’s narrow streets. The rainy season lasts from May to November, with short bursts of rainfall followed by hours of sunshine.
Top things to do in Santo Domingo
National Botanic Garden
One of the largest botanical gardens in the Caribbean, this sprawling complex showcases the diversity of the Dominican Republic’s various ecosystems. As you walk through the central square, you can admire ponds full of aquatic plants and colorful fish and check out the massive floral clock. At the Herbarium, you’ll learn about the native plants used in traditional medicine.
The Three Eyes National Park
Just a 10-minute drive from Santo Domingo, this spectacular nature reserve is home to a complex open-air limestone cave system. Its three crystal-clear turquoise lakes — the Three Eyes — are fed by an underground river and surrounded by dramatic stalactites and stalagmites. Lush forests envelop the caves, and if you are lucky, you may spot fish, turtles, or bats while you are there.
Calle Las Damas
Built in 1502, this cobblestone street was one of the first paved streets in the Americas and is lined with some of Santo Domingo’s oldest buildings, including the Fortaleza Ozama, one of the oldest forts in the Americas and a World Heritage Site. “The Ladies Street” is named after the gracious women who strolled along the street during the evenings.
