The CAP CANA project will be developed in a series of stages during the next 10 years, at the end of which will comprise 5,000 residential units and 500 hotel rooms. Due to the size of each of these stages, they could be considered as individual development projects. Each of them will enjoy the all the facilities that makes CAP CANA such a special place.
To date, more than $200 million dollars have been invested in infrastructure and constructions, they majority of which have been completed with our own funds, including the Caletón Beach Club, over 25 kilometers of roads, an aqueduct and water supply, its own power generation and distribution, over 80% of the first stage of the Marina, landscaping of the 18-holes Punta Espada Golf Course, which shall begin operating in the summer of 2006.

CAP CANA will offer a unique life-style, a membership in the most complete private club of the world, including membership in golf clubs, yacht clubs, sporting clubs and beach clubs, with luxury service and hospitality.
Why is it the new Caribbean destination?
CAP CANA has all the necessary elements to be the luxury destination of the region: climate, Caribbean charm, the possibility of owning a property facing the beach and enjoying the best golf. In order to achieve this, it relies on a team of the best professionals (architects, designers, engineers, etc.) who put their knowledge and expertise at the service of the client.
In the mist of nature and washed by crystal blue waters, the seal of exclusivity is engraved in all and each of the services offered by CAP CANA. CAP CANA is a way of living the Caribbean.
An international destination for yachting and scuba-diving.
CAP CANA’s Marina is the pillar of the project, designed to be the most important marina in the Caribbean. The Grand Canal (almost sixty meters wide and five meters deep) will be the central axis, surrounded by luxury stores, exclusive restaurants and five-star hotels. Transportation through these water thoroughfares will be made environment-friendly “vaporetto” shuttles, an innovative system exclusively for transporting visitors.
The CAP CANA Marina will be built in three stages, a 96 million dollars investment. Once the third stage in completed, the marina will be able to birth 500 yachts. It will be the only full service marina in a 400 kilometer radius between the Turks and Caicos and Puerto Rico, accommodating all types of yachts, including 150+ ft (50 m).
