Will be arriving soon at the Paradise Beach Club & Casino in Puerto Plata and would like to know the names and locations of all Catholic Churches close to this resort. Thanks

Hi Michael! The Cathedral in Puerto Plata at the Plaza Central is the nearest one to your hotel. You will have to go by taxi, so be sure to negociate the price before you get in the vehicle. I would advise against using the motorcycle-taxis as they are not safe. The Cathedral is splendid, having just been refurbished, with wonderful wood carved doors & stained glass. The Bishop, his Excellency Gregorio Nicanor Pena Rodrigues, is a wonderful man who speaks fluent Spanish, Italian & English. Please give him our best wishes from Roberto & Sylvia, (Canadians who winter in Costambar) Regards, Bob Graham.

There is a Mass celebrated in the Playa Dorada complex (where the Paradise Beach Club is located) at 11:30 AM on Sunday morning.

It is celebrated at the Puerto Plata Village Resort, which is within walking distance of the Paradise Beach.
