The best hotel for celebrity spotting in the Dominican Republic

How is Casa de Campo preparing to welcome holidaymakers for another 50 years?

We celebrate our 50th anniversary with a campaign of investment, to meet the evolving needs of our guests and ensure that our facilities remain world-leading for the next 50 years. We recently opened a state-of-the-art, 18,000-square-foot Spa & Wellness Centre, allowing us to rival the best wellbeing destinations in the world; and our next phase of enhancements to facilities and restaurants is under way. We will soon be able to share details of an exciting programme of celebratory events over the next 12 months. These will include a special 50th anniversary package, and the return of our sell-out Food & Wine Festival in October.

With its many on-screen appearances, Casa de Campo is ideal for set-jetting travellers. How can agents use this hook to sell the resort?

Casa de Campo has served as a picturesque backdrop for various films and TV shows, including Sandra Bullock’s 2022 blockbuster, The Lost City and, most recently, the Road House reboot. We advise agents to leverage Casa’s cinematic connections in their marketing efforts, inviting potential “set-jetters” to follow in the stars’ footsteps and experience the magic of their favourite films first-hand. Highlighting that actors including Jake Gyllenhaal, Channing Tatum and Daniel Radcliffe chose Casa de Campo as their base throughout filming is a great way to demonstrate the quality of the resort’s accommodation, facilities and dining to customers.

Agents can use this endorsement from cinema’s biggest names as a benchmark of quality and a great tool for closing sales.

Sporty guests are one of your target markets – why is this so?

Casa de Campo is a paradise for active travellers. Our resort boasts three world-renowned golf courses designed by Pete Dye, including the Caribbean & Latin America’s number one course, Teeth of the Dog. We also offer world-class tennis, padel, horse riding, polo, clay shooting and water sports facilities. Agents can emphasise these features to attract sporty clients, suggesting tailored itineraries that include golf tournaments, tennis clinics, or deep-sea fishing excursions to showcase the diverse activities available at the resort.
