Learn more about hotels in Dominican Republic

Dominican Republic, located on the island of Hispaniola, is one of the Caribbean's most vibrant nations, bursting with contrasting cultures, architectures, landscapes, and flavours. As the stage for the first permanent European settlement in the Americas, it balances a rich Spanish colonial history and the enduring cultural influence of the native Taíno people and African traditions.

Its robust economy is topped in Central America and Caribbean region only by Panama and sits proudly as seventh-largest in Latin America. While this economic prowess is built on a thriving tourism industry and lucrative mining ventures, its backbone remains the people - Dominicans, an amalgamation of ethnic influences and tales of strife and liberation.

The Dominican Republic presents an astounding geographical diversity with landscapes oscillating between the Caribbean's highest peak, Pico Duarte and its largest lake, Lake Enriquillo. Experience this charming duality as you explore the bustling streets of Santo Domingo's Colonial Zone, where the hemisphere's pioneering cathedral, castle, and fortress stand firm, or immerse yourself in the tranquillity offered by its secluded beaches.

When to visit Dominican Republic

The Dominican Republic greets visitors with a plush tropical climate year-round, offering high temperatures and a friendly Caribbean sun. The optimal visiting period between December and March reveals the island at its formidable best with its picture-perfect weather, minimal rainfall and pristine beaches. That said, travelling during the rainy season can still be a sultry experience with plenty of sunny days punctuating the typical showers.

While August is usually the hottest month, it furnishes the perfect backdrop for beach lovers and sun-seekers enjoying the warmth. Conversely, the cooler temperatures throughout January provide great sightseeing weather to explore Santo Domingo's cultural sights, go on adventurous hikes, or discover the hidden gems that populate this splendid island nation.
