Fishing Lodge Cap Cana, the new luxury villa resort opening this fall on the Eastern tip of the
Dominican Republic, is offering a special introductory meetings package starting from October 12. Fishing Lodge, named for the Caribbean’s largest inland marina which the resort surrounds, is located within a masterfully designed village only 10 minutes from
Punta Cana International Airport. Managed by
Salamander Hotels & Resorts, its initial opening features an array of amenities, including two themed restaurants, three bars, four pools, a 16th century-style stone wedding chapel, a state-of-the-art fitness center, boutique shops, and 30,000 sq. ft. of event spaces, including a spectacular outdoor amphitheater.
The first-time meetings package is valid through 2011, includes a starting villa $99 room rate (either single or double occupancy) and complimentary meeting space. The package is applicable for groups of 10 or more and does not include taxes, resort fee or service charge. Group rates for 2012 begin at $139 a night. Although Fishing Lodge is not an all-inclusive resort, package plans that include meals and beverages are available beginning at $174.50 per person, per night, based on double occupancy.
Fishing Lodge includes 299 spacious, Mediterranean-style villas with stunning marina views, designer furnishings and innovative architecture. Built on low-rise docks, they range in size from junior to three-bedroom villas, while several feature private infinity pools and swim-out access. Guests also enjoy a secluded beach, which is a delightful two-minute ride by private watercraft, and a Jack Nicklaus Signature experience at the exclusive
Punta Espada Golf Club – the top-ranked golf course in the Caribbean and Mexico.

Fishing Lodge is owned by
Corporacion Hotelera Del Mar and is the first property to open within
Salamander’s Grand Resorts at Cap Cana collection. The second property,
Ocean Club Cap Cana, will open in 2012 as a 92-room boutique-style hotel, romantically situated where the marina meets the Caribbean Sea.
Unlike many other Dominican destinations, which are only all-inclusive, the Fishing Lodge experience is open to all guest types and stays – from family reunions to executive group retreats. Guests can also enjoy children’s activities, boat rentals, sport fishing and nautical provisioning. Twice the size of Manhattan, Cap Cana is an ecologically pristine, 30,000-acre exclusive retreat featuring ocean, beach, cliffs and forest. In addition to hiking trails, an unsurpassed array of water-based options and a variety of nature-based activities, it has been hailed as the “World’s Greatest New Destination.” The nearby
Punta Cana International Airport is served by 38 airlines offering flights from 100 cities around the world.
In addition to
Punta Espada Golf Club, which is within Cap Cana’s gates and features more oceanfront holes than any other layout in the Western hemisphere, the area’s numerous other courses – designed by such luminaries as P.B. Dye and Tom Fazio – create an unrivalled golf vacation destination. Cap Cana also features another spectacular hotel just two miles from the Fishing Lodge:
Sanctuary Cap Cana features a world-class spa, stunning ballroom facilities and an array of extraordinary accommodations along its pristine beach.
