New Luxury Spa Resort on the North Coast of the Dominican Republic
Breaking news from Business Wire tells of a new upscale spa resort opening on the North Coast of the Dominican Republic. Lead by Gary Sims, past president of the famed Nikki Beach Hotel Group the beauty of the north coast of the Dominican Republic is finally getting the recognition it deserves. Following is the press release:
NEW YORK - (Business Wire) Miami Based, Desires Hotels announces the latest international addition to their modern boutique collection, The Cliffs Ocean Resort, which is situated between Puerto Plata and Samana along the stunning north coast of the Dominican Republic. The project is the first in the Dominican Republic to be LEED certified and is set to open Summer 2011. Room amenities at the eco-chic luxurious resort include large living areas and private terraces with unmatched views to the ocean and the mountains while being completely surrounded by a lush tropical landscape.
The Cliffs Ocean Resort’s initial 102 rooms mark the first phase of development in which guests will enjoy the resort’s close proximity to great golf at the Robert Trent Jones Sr. designed Playa Grande Golf Course which has been called the “Pebble Beach of the Caribbean.” In an area that sees few tourists, the resort is only five minutes from crystal clear turquoise water with white powder sand beaches featuring water sports, fishing, surfing, and snorkeling. The area along the north coast of Dominican Republic is a beach lover’s dream with 75 miles of pristine white-sand beaches that were named to Conde Nast Traveler’s “Top 10 Beaches in the World.” Nature enthusiasts will also enjoy short exploration trails to tropical waterfalls, lagoons, and mangroves.
Built on 25 acres of ocean-side property, The Cliffs Ocean Resort will include a luxury spa featuring a wide array of Asian treatments that soothe the mind, body, and soul. For those wanting to relax poolside, there will be two salt-water infinity pools overlooking the Caribbean Sea along with a Beach Club that offers another form of respite in the bar and cigar lounge — the club also consists of a food and beverage outlet and area for teenagers. The resort has 24-hour room service, a Fitness Center, helipad, and commercial shopping area. For those seeking a more active holiday there is golf practice facility, sports center with tennis courts, and equestrian center. “Desires Hotels International is excited to bring this property into the collection,” says Gary L. Sims Executive VP/Partner of Desires Hotels International, “It’s unique location and tremendous amenities for guests make The Cliffs Ocean Resort an outstanding Caribbean destination.”

Dominican Republic Real Estate Jazz Fest Report
Jazz Fest sizzles balmy Dominican Republic resort town

Previous Next Zoom Picture Cabarete, Dominican Republic Real Estate.- The tenth annual Dominican Republic Jazz Festival played to packed crowds on Playa Cabarete from November 6th through the 8th, drawing more than 2,000 people from across the Dominican Republic and internationally.
The Dominican Republic Jazz Festival is the biggest yearly Cabarete event outside of wind sports, and the excitement can be felt from beach to barrio. Each "night" -- well into the morning hours -- post-festival party goers participated in improvisational jazz jam sessions and then boogied it at the thumping beach-front Cabarete clubs.
This year, Peruvian pianist and composer, Ania Paz, started things off Friday night with her jazz ensemble of Afro-Peruvian and Caribbean flavored stylings. Though the highlight of Friday night was decidedly the energetic improvisations of the Holograma Quintet, whose strong bass, guitar and sax played beautifully off of the pulsing rhythms of percussion master, Wilson “Chembo” Corniel.
The weekend continued with youth workshops during the day on Saturday, led by the world renowned talents of bass master Ramón Vázquez, professor and founding member of the New Jazz and Caribbean Music Department of the Puerto Rico Conservatory of Music, Italian composer, jazz columnist and saxophone extraordinaire Marco Pignataro, and more top of the line maestros. Even though it was a free day from school, children from the neighborhoods, including a host of DREAM project students, absolutely packed the main stage seating.
Saturday evening welcomed the talent of Dominican group, Fellé Vega + Un Folclore Imaginario -- Fellé Vega playing his inventive percussion instruments into near religious ecstasies, the international ensemble, Saxophone Encounter, who displayed their insights into ultra-improv, and three-time Grammy award winning drummer Antonio Sanchez pounding out the rhythm of his quartet.
The show wrapped up Sunday night amidst the downpour of a tropical rain storm. Concert goers huddled in under the covered seating in every way possible, packed tighter than the most utilized of guaguas, while the Marco Pignataro quintet played one beautifully orchestrated piece into another. The weekend finished with a literal bang, as Dominican born “El Canario” José Alberto whooped up the crowd with his contagious and courageous Latin / Caribbean / jazz big band. They wailed all the way into Sunday night and through to the earliest hours of Monday morning with Cuban, Puerto Rican, and Dominican classics that had the whole crowd up and dancing along with them. José Alberto ended the event with an energetic pass through the crowd, singing his heart out, as fireworks exploded over the beach behind the spectators.
Event organizer, Lorenzo Sancassani, described the festival as having gone “perfectly.” When asked how this year compared to previous years, he said, “Structurally it just keeps getting better and better, but other than that, the feeling, the excellence in music, it is the same.”
Though there was no special fanfare for the tenth anniversary aspect, Sancassani revealed big plans for the festival's fifty year celebration... Long live The Dominican Republic Jazz Festival!
