Location
Where is Cap Cana?
Well, Cap Cana is located on the South Eastern point of The Dominican Republic, south of Turks and Caicos and West of the British Virgin Islands. The Dominican Republic was one of the places that Columbus landed during his first voyage. It is a country that has the oldest castle and cathedral in the Americas and its old Colonial Zone in its capital city, Santo Domingo, offers some incredible buildings to explore for those who are keen on a bit of history.
The stretch of coastline that includes the spectacular Cap Cana Resort is known as the Coconut Coast. No surprise when you see the leafy coconut trees waving in a warm breeze above the softest and whitest sand imaginable. It is a postcard-perfect destination.
With lots of direct flight services from Europe, the USA and Canada, it’s not a complicated journey to get to this majestic part of the world. At Exceptional Villas we can meet you at the Airport and whisk you direct to your luxury accommodations within the enclave that is Cap Cana. Vacationing has never been so easy.
