The Zapata Hotel is a perfect destination for those tourists who crave comfort, relaxation and a desire to get in touch with real Dominican culture, customs, dances, food and people. Educating and orientating their guests on the best ways to interact with locals makes the Zapata a better fit for many, as opposed to large impersonal all inclusive establishments. Nightlife such as a casino and disco are both within easy reach so there is no need to travel to the capital.
