Playa Dorada’s hotel complex in the northern province of Puerto Plata is the most likely site of the upcoming ACP summit. Santo Domingo, the capital city, does not have the necessary amount of hotel rooms to host the event. The government and the private sector will cooperate on the construction of a convention center on a vacant lot property of the Central Bank in the Playa Dorada area. The center needs to be ready by November. Punta Cana was also considered for the event, but the business community did not show the interest and the event was captured by Playa Dorada.
