Fodor's Expert Review ALSOL Luxury Village

Spacious condo accommodations are the norm in this hotel and residential complex overlooking the marina at Cap Cana; with a new white-sand beach and strong management, it's finally hitting its stride. The designer units here include smaller studios (called "junior suites," at 800 square feet), but the one-, two-, and three-bedroom condos are the most popular since they have fully equipped kitchens. While you can book room-only accommodations, many guests choose to go all-inclusive since there's no nearby supermarket, particularly since restaurant options have been expanded. The AI plan also includes the restaurants at its nearby new sister resort, ALSOL Tiara Cap Cana. The full resort complex has four pools, all dramatic with high-end furnishings and particularly beautiful when night-lit. There's also an atmospheric stone wedding chapel that gets a lot of use. If you'd prefer a more natural beach setting, the resort offers a shuttle to Juanillo Beach. Some remarkable promotions can appear on the website.
