Welcome to the Dominican Republic homepage!!!

This is not an official page that has anything to do with the government of the country but a page maintained by myself Jose F. Torres.

I don't have too much space so what you are going to find here are mainly links, I am not responsible for any links that are not on this server I am trying to get most of the information so I can keep it on here.

Dominican Republic win's the Caribbean Series!!!!!

Republica Dominican gana la serie del Caribe!!!!!

If you have never been here or heard of this beautiful country, it is a small nation occupying the eastern part of the island Hispaniola in the caribbean, right next to Puerto Rico.The other side of the island is occupied by Haiti.

I grew up in the southeastern part of the island in the town of La Romana and lived in Casa de Campo. Below are pictures of the hotel including villas, rooms and Minitas Beach, brought to you from Caribe.Com.

One of the rooms in the hotel buildings known as "Casita's".

These rooms are spread all over the complex almost all overlooking one of the two championship golf courses and as you can see in this picture a view of the Carribbean.

The island was one of the islands that Cristopher Columbus landed at on his first voyage in 1492
