Water Sports
The dry, turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea and the Chavón River are the playgrounds of the Casa de Campo Resort and Villas. Between the fun of deep-water fishing to the serenity of kayaking through the mountains, to finding the world under the waves while snorkeling, you’ll enjoy what the water has to offer.
Eating Out

This has resulted in important contributions to the gastronomy scene. You’ll taste Caribbean rice and beans with uniquely Dominican dishes such as mango and sancocho.
