We are planning a wedding at the Marien Coral Hilton, whose address is listed as playa dorado, puerto plata. But a hotel ballroom reception isnt really either of our styles

Are there any nearby resturants off the resort that might give us the opportunity to plan a fun casual reception with local foods or seafood or something like that, maybe someplace that would have or let us hire some musicians?

There is a rustic local restaurant at Los Manguito with good seafood and Dominican food on the roadside of Playa Dorada. You could book the entire restaurant, but may need to put some security to help the owners set aside that they are hosting a private party.

If you want something a little nicer (really alot nicer), try Cariatides Restaurant. Located directly across the street from the Coral Marien. They have a private dining room and a diverse menu. They do Dominican theme menus as well as American and Italian. Do a search of DR1 for reviews as well as reports of weddings held there.

Coral Marien is not in the Playa Dorado complex. It is in a complex called Costa Dorado which it shares with the Iberostar Hotel. It is located about a 1/4-1/2 mile west of Playa Dorado, towards Puerto Plata.

Depending on how many people - time of day etc - what about Teddies Island BBQ. It sounds like you two are fun - so again next to Ocean World ( about 20 mins from your hotel - 2 mins from playa D ). The bar/resturant is right on the beach, its a fair size, great food, fantastic view to watch the sun go down, car park for a coah to take your party from the hotel to the place? Just a thought ........

I think they meant 20 mins to Playa Dorada or maybe 2 mins to Playa Cofresi.

This is about a 10 minute taxi drive from the Coral. It's located on the water, on the malecon, or boulevard. Its a newer restaurant, and very nice.
