Steve thank you very much for your information.
Is there near Aquabella tower coming a marine?
Where exactly is coming the marine?
Do you think, they make the beach bigger at Costa Linda, Los Olas?

The regeneration of the beach in Juan Dolio is going to continue for another 4 km from Punta Garza to Guayacanes covering all Juan Dolio area , they got the funds already , probably by the end 2007, beginning 2008 . There will be 2 marinas in Juan Dolio . 1st near Albatros , 2d in Punta Garza area. There is no exact location yet to be sure. Lets wait for some renderings to come out.

Colonia Tropical is not Barcel? anymore . The Hotel is closed. It is under reconstruction to become a condominium like the other hotels in the area of Villas Del Mar...

Hopefully there will be one or two resorts that stay open!!! Where will all our visitors stay??????
Most condos certainly aren't large enough to accomodate larger families (8 people in a small two bedroom apt. gets ridiculous VERY quickly!!!)

Well...this one was an Aparta-Hotel and not a Resort anyway, people were just able to use AI cross the street in Capella Resort... and if to keep a Resort become unprofitable , there is only way to sell it as the apartments or to have some mixed use between a Condo and Hotel etc.

Ahhhh Dre......Sun Village is just the remodeled old Melia and that leaves just Talanquera, Decameron, COOP Marena.....back to just a few of the older (even tho' remodelled) smaller resorts. 2-3 stars at best surrounded by luxury condos that not too many people live in other than weekends and holidays....
sigh!

Condominium Colonia Tropical update info

From official website : Condominium Colonia Tropical is owned by a group of foreign investors and has been operated as a hotel complex ( Barcel? Colonia Tropical ). Now it is converted in separate apartments to be sold independently and it will also be extended by additional buildings...
The project is managed and supervised by Klaus Luka, a German entrepreneur with more than 15 years experience in the Dominican Republic, who is specialized in consulting and construction... The project consists of one main building and 5 villas, which are already in existence. These facilities will be remodeled into 20 separate apartments and 8 commercial spaces.
An additional a new 6-store-building (?Torre Tropical?) with 12 apartments will be built resulting in a total number of 32 apartments... Next to the Condominium Colonia Tropical there is an additional lot and there are plans for the construction of an additional 5-store building with a total of 15 apartments...
