I will be staying in Gazcue in mid January. I would like to do some swimming but my hotel does not have a pool. (I chose one with a kitchen instead). Would anyone know of hotel in the Gazcue/Malecon area that allows entrance to it's pool during the day for an entrance fee? Thanks in advance for any help.

Pool Access on Malecon/Gazcue
Looks Great
Thanks for the replies. From the photos on the hotel's web sites they look like they all would be great. I wish I had asked the question before I spent 6 days roasting in the capital in October. Spending a few hours poolside during the heat of the day is absolutely worth the entrance fee! Thanks again.

Last time I checked you have to be a member at the Hotel Santo Domingo to use the pool but I don't know if this has changed.
I do think that the Melia allows ?seasonal memberships" for a few months... They just did not want a whole lot of people coming in for the day.... but if you are presentable--- ok,.... read... white, foreign, wealthy,,, and will be here for a bit of time, go in and talk to them... there are not many people there....
Hotel Intercontinental V Centenario on Malecon has day passes for the use of their pool and bar, it's a nice pool area with views of the sea on the 4th floor.
The last time I went to Hotel Santo Domingo (2 months ago) they charged me RD$290...That includes use of a pool,chairs, towel and shower.
I can't believe how much Nepoliatano is charging now, I used to pay RD$130, of course that was in 2004 but sheesh...:squareeye

Yes, but if I'm not mistaken, the Napolitano price includes lunch as well. Or I hope...
Info on Napolitano
This is the copy of the reply from the Napolitano on 11/25. I don't know what lunch would consist of but even if it's just a sandwich and a "welcome drink" I figure that's worth $300 pesos, so $400 pesos for pool use for the day would not be too bad. Also it's close to where I'm staying. "Dear Mr. Brian
The cost of the day pass is: RD$ 700.00 per Person
Include Buffet in case of Group or Lunch in case of less then 15 persons.
Included use of the Pool and a welcome drink, if there are any children under 12 years old they will pay RD$ 350.00 each kid.
These prices include Taxes."
