About
La Romana Province lies on the eastern coast of the Dominican Republic, in the Caribbean. It is a province shaped by two things that sit side by side here: a long-established sugar industry and a set of luxury resorts that draw visitors from around the world.
What to expect
Most people come for the resort side of the province. The best known of these is Casa de Campo, a popular destination that many visitors treat as the centre of their trip. Staying there, you can spend your days by the coast or on the grounds and enjoy the comforts the resort is known for.
The sugar industry is the other face of the province. Its fields and mills have long been part of local life, and they give the area a working character that differs from the purely holiday feel of the resorts.
Planning a visit
- Base yourself near the resorts if you want a relaxed stay with plenty on site.
- Allow time to see the surrounding countryside, where the sugar industry shapes the landscape.
- Think of the province as a place to combine rest with a glimpse of the country beyond the resort gates.
La Romana suits visitors who want a comfortable base on the Caribbean coast of the Dominican Republic, and who are curious about the economy that has long defined the region.
