A variety of different recreational pursuits isn't necessarily necessary for a memorable vacation. While some would be happier staying at a resort with many different activities available, others can enjoy themselves with a small selection of recreational choices, or they just want an attractive, comfortable place to get away from it all. Despite the fact that it doesn't offer the largest assortment of, extracurricular activities the V Centenario InterContinental Santo Domingo may have everything you need.

Water and Fitness

Although there is no set standard for the ideal vacation, the Dominican Republic has all of the activities and attractions travelers are looking for. Lounging at the hotel's pool may not be your main priority, although it can be a great way to unwind and relax.

Tennis

Vacationers who love the game of tennis will find this hotel particularly appealing. There are 233 rooms and 1 tennis court. This equates to an average of approximately 559 guests per tennis court, which is not as favorable a ratio as you would enjoy at some hotels in the area. There will be opportunities to play a match, but during the high season you may have to wait for a time when the courts aren't crowded, like when other guests are sunning at the beach. Evening matches are a possibility, since you have the option of using a lit court. This is ideal for vacationers who want to spend their day pursuing other activities.

Golf

Although the V Centenario InterContinental Santo Domingo does not have a golf course, you might be able to schedule a tee time at one of the local golf courses if you are hoping to play a round or two during your visit.
