I returned from the Velero on the Dominican Republic's north coast yesterday, November 11, 2008. My ten day vacation here was wonderful. The service, accomodations, view, and location were fantastic. Although I only speak English, the staff at the front desk, and the restaurant spoke English and this made my stay very pleasurable and accomodating. The young man that assisted... more

We've been traveling to the DR for over 20 years. We have stayed in many different areas of the island and once spent five months living in Santiago. When we wished to visit beaches, Cabarete was the spot that always intrigued us. We'd walk the miles of pristine beaches every day for our exercise. We made note of the empty... more

We have stayed at Velero five times now. We typically get a two bedroom suite on the third floor. Very nice and helpful staff. Great location. Attractive pool and nice cute restaurant on the water. Great prices for the value! Cabarete is our family's favorite somewhat undiscovered gem. more

Good friends who own property on Dominican Republic highly recommend Velero Beach and we were not disappointed. Great location at end of Cabarete Beach provides access to beach amenities with ability to return to serenity of the hotel property. Pool is located right at beach side and view of ocean is outstanding. Staff was also outstanding and was very responsive... more

My wife and I have stayed here many times and find it the best spot in Caberete.The attention to detail is tops. The service is the best . The pool and deck area have spectacular views and are just set back enough to be serene. Secure parking and an easy walk to the nightlife of the beach. We just keep... more

I stayed at Velero this past summer with my teen age boys. The resort itself was simple but gorgeous, extremely well maintained, and service purely delightful. The view is breathtaking. At the same time it was just a short walk to nite life- many different restaurants on the beach and dancing at nite. What attracted me was the opportunity for... more

An absolutely wonderful, full service hotel on the shores of the Carribean. Overlooking beautiful beaches, kite/board surfing, niteclubs just down the beach, the little town a short stroll up the road, was perfect for me. I was even adopted by the Valero mascot, Scoobie the dog, a mutt that rules the beach and befriends anyone that's willing to pet him... more

We honeymooned at Velero for 2 weeks in June-July, and we had a fantastic time! The staff were all very friendly and service minded. The garden was extremely well kept, the pool was small, but nice. We used the hotel restaurant at the beach for breakfast and lunch almost every day. The restaurant is beautifully placed with a fantastic view... more

We found Velero Beach listed in Caribbean Travel & Life under "Affordable Vacations". But, we didn't expect too much. The price was reasonable for our budget, so we booked and went July 14-21st, 2008. Velero far surpassed our expectations in quality, value, and service. We actually got sick on our second day (vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration). The staff promptly called a... more
