Our stay was really incredible. The staff is so professional, attentive and extremely friendly. From the one who helps you park your car right in front to all the other staff members that are ready to wait on you 24/7. The breakfast choice we made was spectacular, highly recommend it. The actual grounds are superbly maintained and the Casas are stunning!. Definitely recommend it as we will definitely go back to stay!!!!.

The property was beautiful. The only complaint I have is, we weren’t allowed to bring anything in from the outside and I think that was ridiculous. Butler service ends at 11pm and so if you woke up needing a drink and a late night snack you are unable to get it. Or even if you came in from a late night it’s the same nothing in your room to neutralize your stomach before bed.

Wonderful experience in the historical area of Santo Domingo. Staying at Casas XVI brings you to the glamour of the old years in Dominican Republic when everything began in the Caribbean. Great service, friendly staff, personalized attention and good food. This is the best way to enjoy Santo Domingo.
