A blend of Spanish, French, African and island cultures gives the Dominican Republic plenty to offer visitors in the way of food and festivals. But the natural surroundings—lagoon-lined beaches and lush tropical forests—may be the biggest draw. Dreams La Romana combines the beauty of the two, topped off by the privileges of “Unlimited-Luxury,” where everything’s included.

Guests stay close to nature on private balconies or terraces that look onto verdant gardens or the dazzling Caribbean Sea. Rooms and suites hearken to genteel colonial days with wood furnishings, ceiling fans and tiled floors, though modern necessities like LCD TVs and MP3 docks make comfort truly timeless. Day trips to nearby Catalina Island or the artist village at Altos de Chavon give visitors a sense of the island’s pleasures, while couples can relax together in the calm environs of the world-class spa onsite.

Dreams La Romana’s dedicated wedding coordinators ensure nuptial events are a seamless mix of the special elements that make for a superb tropical beach celebration. A selection of three bridal packages, one free with minimal requirements, presents many options to personalize the event. Those who stay at least seven nights earn complimentary nights towards their first anniversary trip to their Dreams Resort & Spa of choice.
