The property was beautiful. The only complaint I have is, we weren’t allowed to bring anything in from the outside and I think that was ridiculous. Butler service ends at 11pm and so if you woke up needing a drink and a late night snack you are unable to get it. Or even if you came in from a late night it’s the same nothing in your room to neutralize your stomach before bed.

Wonderful experience in the historical area of Santo Domingo. Staying at Casas XVI brings you to the glamour of the old years in Dominican Republic when everything began in the Caribbean. Great service, friendly staff, personalized attention and good food. This is the best way to enjoy Santo Domingo.

When I was at this property two years ago, it was phenomenal. Now? In my opinion, it is gone downhill and that is not the fault of the employees that’s a message for upper management and ownership. The unit that we were in needed repairs and looked very tired For a property that is really the king of the hill we need maintenance. We need love. The staff housekeeping and Butler were amazing upper management. I’m not thrilled with. We could smile more. We could pretend we’re interested more unlike regular staff who were phenomenal. Upper management seemed too stoic and unhappy and too disinterested. I really hope in the future they fix some of these issues because The properties and the general idea of the properties is really excellent. But I was not thrilled with my last five night visit.

I’ll be back.
This trip was absolutely splendid. The staff was friendly and attentive. Every corner of every room was unique, chic and inspirational. Every time I left and returned, it gave me a warm “welcome back home” feeling. I even got a sneak peek into the other 2 rooms in our shared villa and feel in love with each rooms difference. Having room service can be a bit expensive and some dishes need a little more seasoning but it was filling. As for the location, it’s a cool 3 min. walk to the main streets to explore and to be picked up from for excursions. Overall, I will be returning.
